We planned to interview multiple agents, but after meeting her, we immediately knew she was the right choice. Selling a home can be stressful, but Laurie made the process so much easier. She was always responsive, explained everything clearly, and was a steady, reassuring presence throughout. Thanks to her expertise, we received an offer within 24 hours of listing. I can't say enough great things about Laurie. She's knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about her clients. I would highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home.

The staff was great however the subcontractors that they use have poor workmanship. It started with a tub that didn't drain due to the framing being done wrong. They had to come and tear tile and framing apart to redo it all while we had already moved in. Come to find out once the tub was taken out that there was no support for the jetted tub that is made out of fiberglass, it was sitting 2 inches above the floor imagine it filled with water and the weight of a person the tub would of cracked. While they were applying the texture on the walls they did not cover the AC vents and all that texture got into the AC system. The tile guy has come to my house over five times to fix the grout on the the tile that wasn't properly applied to no avail. I have had hinges fall off doors, toilet bowls not properly set smelling unbearable. I also had impact windows installed and all of the covers and slide stops were discarded and when questioned I'm being the look of the window was told that was the way it comes. Upon calling the window manufacture and having them come out to inspect the windows it was revealed the missing parts. I must state though Windemeres office staff is pretty good, however it doesn't make a difference how good your office staff is if the subcontractors are doing substandard work. We have been in our home for a little over 7 months and noticing that Windemere uses the cheapest fixtures which you wouldn't be able to tell by their model homes. I'm also having other problems that I won't get into at this time due to trying to have them corrected.

Extremely Poor Property Management Experience - Fort Myers…read more Marshall Reddick did a very poor job managing my property in Fort Myers. I relocated to California for work (RTO) and left the property in August, giving Marshall Reddick full authorization to manage everything--including tenant placement and payment of utility bills. This was by far the most horrifying property management experience I've had, and I own properties managed in other states. Over several months, I was instructed to reduce my rent five separate times due to what they claimed was a "poor market," yet the company changed real estate agents 3-4 times without my consent. Each time, they failed to run the live Facebook marketing campaign they had explicitly promised. Most alarming, I was later informed that power to the property had been shut off for three weeks before Marshall Reddick notified me. I was told this occurred due to a lack of funds, and only after the prolonged outage was I informed of a potential microbial growth issue--a serious risk to the property that should have been addressed immediately. Despite providing a 30-day notice for non-performance, Marshall Reddick ignored the notice entirely and continued to demonstrate a complete lack of accountability, communication, and urgency. This experience showed a complete disregard for: Basic property oversight Timely communication Tenant placement execution Utility management Owner fiduciary responsibility I would strongly caution any property owner--especially those managing remotely--before trusting Marshall Reddick with their investment.

They were the buyers agent when we sold our home. Once we accepted the buyers offer they became…read moreextremely rude and difficult to work with. We moved a few days before closing and they took this as an opportunity to constantly enter our home. We had a few items left behind waiting for friends to pick them up; everything was planned to be completed before closing. This agent entered our home several times and each time called our agent screaming about the items we left behind. My friends arrived today to pick up the three pieces of furniture and were met at the door by this agent; screaming at them about the furniture. We had already advised he was not authorized to enter our home again until the buyer walkthrough so I believe his presence there is unethical at the very least if not illegal. I would not trust them as a seller to have unlimited access to my home.
