    Our unit was a little dated (Down by the Sea) so you cannot expect the quality of the units to be…read morethe same across the board, but some things are universal to the location. I'll start with the unit itself: a bit dated/worn in the kitchen & bathrooms---well-stocked kitchen but with older coffee maker and skimpy soap supply for dishes and laundry, wonderful location (we were oceanfront with a very short walk to the boardwalk and pool, everything you need for a week (or longer stay)...tv is also a bit dated and two lights were actually broken when we arrived...I'm sure they'd have fixed it if we'd asked them to come but I didn't want maintenance people in there while we were there so we just texted to notify. I didn't have five-star expectations so I wasn't upset but definitely recognize this is a budget accommodation that is beach front. The pool is large and clean and wonderful. There are stores pretty close by but I'd say you definitely need a car unless you're up for a long bike ride. We were happy here and would come back but it would help if the owner would spruce things up a bit...seriously, not a lot....just a little. The ocean view from our balcony and bedroom made it worth it. Plus there's ample parking and we always felt safe.

    Our unit, Forever Home - 100, was awesome! Beautifully updated with all the amenities needed! I…read morehad read some past reviews, new owners took over in 2021 and are doing a great job caring for the units. Monty was very personable and quick to answer any questions about local area. For sure coming back!

    UPDATE: As of June 16th, 2023, Galphin attempted to take funds out of our checking account without…read moreany prior authorization. By using the checking account connected to our renter's portal, she tried to force us to pay another month's worth of rent that we informed her was in escrow until she fixed the number of problems we had. Not only is that our legal right as a tenant in Florida, but it is against the law for a rental company to set up unauthorized payments when the renter has informed them that rent is being withheld until they fulfill their legal obligation to maintain livable conditions. They are also forbidden from collecting back rent. Original review: This is single-handedly the worst property manager I've ever had to deal with. The new owner has made her career out of gaslighting and avoiding problems in the hopes that no one calls her out on it. She tries to blame it all on the previous owner, but it's been over a year since she has taken over the business and she has refused to fix a single problem. The front door to our house has a constant stream of water coming through every time it rains, flooding the entire first floor. There is a busted water pipe on the second floor that seeps into the room below it - which you can clearly see from the way the ceiling bows under the weight of the water - and she tried to blame us for an excessive water bill while refusing to fix the pipe. The house is absolutely full of mold to the point where my own doctor threatened to call the health department. The front door doesn't even shut all of the way, you have to hold it in place and turn the lock so the lock holds it shut. Instead of fixing ANY of this, she ignores phone calls and maintenance requests while telling you she wants to increase your rent. The best part is that she said that she is demolishing the house and she still expects the carpets to be completely cleaned/replaced in order to get the security deposit back. The house is being torn down. Three families on this property are being kicked out because they want to destroy the house, yet they still want the house professionally cleaned to get the deposit back after a year of actively violating the lease agreement. Do not rent from these people.

    Unfortunate. These people don't seem to realize that people's lives are impacted by them not…read moreshowing up. Reached about about a rental they listed about 1 hour before. Left a message "Can you let me know when the home is available and can I see it" also sent a message through the app with the same questions. - No reply Called 3 days later, got the message system again. Asked the same questions, "would like to see the place" and "if it is rented, please let me know" - No reply Called 2 days later (unfortunately a message again). This time left it for the owner. Let this person know about my previous 3 messages, please let me know if this home is available to see. Guess what?!?!?! No reply. It is a shame. I simply wanted to know if this home was available. If it was not, simply send me a message or text letting me know. I can see whey they only get 2 stars on here. Bad business in a small town. Jack

    We turned our residential condo over to Chaplin Williams in 2017 to the wonderful (then employees)…read moreSabrina in the office with Lee being the man involved in the field with the issues. Unlike some of the reviews I have read we had wonderful, responsive and trusting experiences with those specific folks, but they have since left and moved on. In our now 7th year of this management our tenant moved out at the end of May 2024. In past experiences, Lee had communicated to us regarding potential folks already willing to move in, well before the prior renters last day. Because of this, I called into the office on May 28th, 2024 asking for status. I was told they had showed the condo to 4 people but no one was interested, the prior renter was very clean and that the cleaning company would be in on June 3-5 to do final cleanup and inspections would be done as well. On the weekend of June 1-2 after the renter had moved out, I went to Chaplin Williams website clicked on Owner and opened up a maintenance inquiry asking them to let me know when the cleaning was done so I could reinspect, as I had gone into the condo on June 1st after the move out and found it to be quite dirty. By June 4th I had received zero acknowledgement from Chaplin, as to my maintenance inquiry , called the office at 8:35AM and got the rude answering service person who told me I'd have to call back at 9 (even though online it said they opened at 8:30AM) so I reached out to the owner instead asking her to get me feedback. Later that morning an employee called me back ,after the owner spoke with her I presume and she told me they had not received a single maintenance inquiry from me and that the office did indeed open at 8:30 but she hadn't transferred the calls. Told her I did definitely send and then began to tell her how I sent it and she was completely unaware that her employer had a website that allowed owners and others to place a maintenance inquiry. She began to say she had nothing to do with the website becoming defensive and I told her I never once blamed her for this, as it was clear she didn't create the website and she had not been trained to look in this spot for inquiries. I never did get a response back from that inquiry request. By June 8th after hearing zippo I went to the condo myself with my husband. It was clear that someone had been in "to clean" as they bought a shower curtain and just pulled it closed and took the foil out of the bottom of the oven. There was still crud in the tub and mold on the tiles, still crud on the outside of the fridge, still specs of dirt in the bottom of the fridge, dirty butter holder in fridge, dirty cabinetry, filthy inside oven, no wipe down of the washer and dryer, dirt in the medicine cabinet and kitchen cabinet insides, filthy exhaust hood, no base board or door wipe downs and more. On June 10th I sent email to the owner and the office saying we were totally unhappy with the lack of cleanliness and that we personally would clean it and to stay out of it until I told them it was cleaned and we expected compensation for needing to clean. I was told by the employee that the fridge had non -removal rust, the tub was plastic and couldn't get cleaner and the oven was already cleaned. The owner offered to clean it , but I told her I would do. On June 11th after I sent the office and owner an FYI email saying I am meeting a painter on Saturday June 15th as I think the condo needed painted, I received a call from an employee stating we need to cancel our mutual contract, no 30 day notice like the contract signed on 3/31/17 stated that was required, and I proceeded to say I never said I was interested in canceling the contract and then when she proceeded to tell me "I was rude" and it should be cancelled and I hung up on her and notified the owner. The owner sent a text agreeing the contract should be cancelled, as they weren't meeting my standards. On June 12th I spent from roughly 9:30AM until 2:30PM cleaning the place. The crud was removed from the fridge, the crud and mold was cleaned out of the tub and tiles, the oven was hand cleaned and then I ran the oven self -clean feature on it and all the other needs as listed above and more were done by me. I also had to ask where our microwave was and then the prior renter brought it back to me at the condo, as I was cleaning it. Later that day the employee reached out to say I could come to their office on 6/13/24 after 3 and pick up our keys and money. This is a case of a company that accepts mediocrity, does not communicate properly and efficiently, is unaware of online tools available to their client base, has sub -par low standards as it speaks to expectations of cleanliness and instead of listening and understanding a customers legitimate needs and frustrations ,accepts the hurt feelings of the employees being escalated over instead and then allows a cancel of a contract before a required 30 day notice over taking care of a customer.

    As homeowners Chaplin Williams has been managing our property for 16 years. They are worthless…read more No communication other than a rent check every month. They suck you in once they get renters in your property and never follow up on any pics or updates on the property. They are supposed to send pics once a year to show the property in being maintained. I drove from Nebraska to Florida to check on the property myself and walked away with a list of things to be addressed. Not sure what I'm paying them to do. I get letters from the HOA with violations which Chaplin Williams should be handling. Such as pressure washing and fence repair in the property. Still clear. Find a more reliable company.
