Deborah Garner at Cedar Creek Real Estate was my realtor for a vacation property rental and I had a…read morevery negative experience regarding the whole interaction. Prior to renting the property, I was assured by Deb that the place was acceptable, which it was not. Upon arrival, I found that over a third of the living space was unusable due to mold covering the floors and walls. When I called Deb to ask what could be done, I then began to experience the true lack of professionalism with this realtor. She clearly fulfilled the inactive role of middleman by passing my issues along to the property owner. She never made an attempt to stop by the location (despite it being less than a mile from her office). She never made an attempt to assist me as her customer. (Time had to be spent cleaning the house and money was spent on cleaning supplies and air mattresses to accommodate my family since many bedrooms were not fit for human inhabitants.) I would strongly recommend you find a realtor who puts her customers first in the event that you encounter any issues.

House was fine, but after cleaning entire house ourselves we find our security deposit return is short. When I call she claims we talked about a cleaning service, which we did not. Why would we clean entire house if a service was coming? Turns out we had family stay at a different house the same week and she did the same to them.

The closing she was late and left early. It was a new girl who did the closing at a lawyers office....taxes were messed up and it cost me a thousand dollars in rebates. I'm lucky I saw an email that looked like a tax bill....I called and was shocked to find a house I paid cash for in full. Was going to be on sheriff sale list due to the incompetence of all those involved. Very greedy....i would never use Mary Enke Realty based on their aloof uncaring attitude....They really could care less. Commission is their only mission. Enjoy. If try Michele Deluca if you want as someone that really does their best....a very unsatisfied victim of Sue from Mary Enke & Mary was even slippery....get the money no matter how wrong their unqualified closer does the paperwork and it's not their fault. Please ...get training on proper closing procedures and inspection disclosures before continuing in this area....Even DeMaria is better choice than Enke ..Time to retire.

We were in the process of buying a house from Mary Enck 15 years ago. Did not get much negotiation…read morein the price, even though the house was older and needed a lot of TLC. The house had been put on and off the market several times for the previous couple years and never sold. Unfortunately, we didn't listen to our guts and went ahead and put down a $1,000 holding deposit on the property. We were given the disclosure statement from the owner. Everything looked fine on paper. Once the owner accepted our offer, the agent said we had to pay for the inspection and recommended 3 they regularly work with. My gut feeling told me to find someone else, and I AM SO HAPPY WE DID!! The house was in far worse shape than we thought, with a whole host of problems, none of which were included in the disclosure. One of the biggest things wrong was the septic system. (FYI..a Septic cleaner professional had actually arrived to clean the septic system out. It took him and hour to pry it open. He said it had not been cleaned in 30+ years). The inspector showed us more than 20 things wrong with the house, including mold, a dangerous and unstable deck, asphalt grading towards the house and trees growing over the pipes that lead to the leach field. Those are just a few problems. It was well worth the $1000 inspection cost. We sent Mary Enck a copy of the report and withdrew our offer. They seemed unsurprised. About a year later we drove by the property and saw they were fixing some of the things, like the roof. Later that year we saw that the house was sold. If you ask me, Mary Enck and associates engage in faulty real estate practices, which is at least unethical, possibly illegal!! I RECOMMEND NOT USING MARY ENCK to buy, or even sell your home. There are so many better Real estate agencies out there! Do your research and always look at the negative reviews! Good luck!

I have had dealt with realtors in the past. Mountain Vista is truly the best. Marion is amazing…read more She walked us through everything and was such a a genuinely nice easy going person. I felt I could call her with any questions at any time and she actually answered the phone which isn't always the case with others. I had hired someone prior to her and they responded poorly and just couldn't sell my home. Then I went to Marion and she sold it right away. I am so sorry I had wasted my time. I wish I would have gone to her right away. I would have saved myself so much money and anguish. She is honest with you and knows how to market a house and close a deal. Thank u so much Marion. It felt like u made it your life's work to sell my home and it worked. Your the best.

His staff was friendly and helpful and quickly set up the appointment which worked for us. We were all set for the survey when COVID-19 restrictions were instituted and mandated state shutdowns began. Unlike other contractors were we working with at the time, Trout Creek notified us of the pause. As soon as he was given the okay to work, Dean notified us and we had a new appointment within days so we could continue with our project. He talked us through the scope of work upon arrival, and worked diligently and meticulously throughout the day to identify all our property stakes, and show us their location. He answered all our questions thoroughly. Thank you. This was the easiest survey we have every had.

We found "our new home" late July. We got our own wonderful realtor, who walked us thru…read moreeverything. We jumped thru every hoop Agnes Shoenberger (the Seller's agent) tossed at us. We even spent the morning in the house with the very nice inspector. Back-to-back hurricanes held up digging up the septic. But after weeks of delays, it passed. We were told the roof would just pass, but needed to be replaced inside 5 years. Other minor things were discussed thru both realtors. Agnes seemed to drag her feet on things. So, we needed a second (2week) extension to get the appraisal. Not sure why that was held up. So, Agnes tells our agent she needs to give her, Agnes, our inspection reports (THAT BTW COST US OVER $800 NON REFUNDABLE) before she could give an extension. Heard nothing. More nothing. Still nothing. In the middle of the night, I got online and looked up "our new home" only to find it had been relisted. We were already packed and wanted to be in before the holidays!!!!! It starts: "BACK ON MARKET THROUGH NO FAULT OF SELLERS - WE HAVE INSPECTION REPORTS AND A 10K PRICE REDUCTION FROM LAST TIME!" First, it is my opinion that it IS the fault of Agnes and Castle Gate Realty. If this home was not going to pass inspection with flying colors, it should never have been listed as an FHA, USDA loan! Certain requirements must be met for these loans. Agnes Shoenberger, as far as I am concerned, wasted our summer by dragging her feet ( we could have spent all those hours finding a new home), pulling out at the last minute, never informing us she was re-listing, AND TAKING OUR $800+ INSPECTION REPORT, under, what I believe were false pretenses, and advertising that SHE has the new inspection report! I believe that if she took our inspection report to use for her own gain, she should send us a check for $ 800. Immediately. DO NOT USE CASTLE GATE REALTY OR AGNES. YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DIDNT!
