I spoke with Scott Bechtel who is the managing broker. He interrupted me, would not listen to what I was trying to convey and called me a "Smartass" twice. I reported him to the headquarters and they did nothing. The issue is so out of hand, I've been forced to file complaints through the state and BBB. I've never been called names by a manager before. It was shocking and gives me an understanding of what kind of behavior he allows.

I absolutely would not recommend this realty company. I used Joe Zalabak from Keller Williams…read morebecause he was local and referred to me by my property manager. I got multiple red flags, but kept giving him the benefit of the doubt. Zillow mistakenly shows that he got top dollar for my listing. However, it was listed as being 1,270 square feet, when it was actually 1,745 square feet, which makes it look like he got a higher rate per square . I was railroaded by this agent. He was manipulative and deceitful. Ultimately, my concerns were proven right. He never allowed enough time or opportunity for prospective buyers to see my place, and have time to consider it. He literally insisted on closing the window to submit offers after only a few days, and only allowed a select few to see the place. I can go on and on. Beware!!

I rented a condo with Property Management People for a year and half. The people seemed attentive…read moreat the beginning but maintenance turned out to be extremely slow. Sometimes it took 3-4 weeks to get something minor fixed at the house. The property managers are not proactive on following up with lease contract renew or move-out inspections. The rent for the condo was above market rate. The pet fee was excessive. I moved out a month ago and am still waiting for them to process my security deposit. I would not recommend renting with PMP due to the expensive rent, slow response time and high maintenance charges.

I am an owner and we use the Property Management People to manage our property. We have had a very…read moregood experience with them. We previously had a different prop manager and they did NOT do anything we needed... our pipes almost burst in the winter because they did not do their job. (We are out-of-state owners from a warm area so, we didn't know anything about that and needed our prop manager to help us!). As soon as we hired The Property Management People, they came in and got us all handled for winter and saved us from the damage we almost faced! They have consistently kept a tenant in our place and made it effortless to deal with. The only reason I am only giving 4 stars is that I feel like they are over-priced. They take 10% management fee. They take 50% of the first month when they rent it to a new tenant - PLUS still that month's 10%. I feel like our rent we get a check for is never even CLOSE to the amount charged to our tenant. Other than that, it is still almost worth it because we don't have to even think about it. Stacie

Her patience and ability to answer all of our questions was much appreciated. AJ was even answering our questions weeks after signing documents for our home! If ever we need to buy or sell, we would definitely reach out to AJ and also recommend to all.

This was especially unusual after home had been viewed by potential buyers and then after the home was in pending negotiations/sale status. Moreso, this agent took liberty of "adding" a cohort attorney for the closing to our initial contract after we had reached a final sale agreement. Informed agent this most certainly should have been brought to our attention Before asking us to sign a revised contract. Unfortunately, found the cohort attorney to have her own communication inconsistencies.

We were absentee sellers, so Ron handled everything from assuring our home was staged, home inspection completed, contacted our lawyer and identified/solved minor problems in the house and yard.

If you want someone to do your sale right, I recommend Ron. He was professional, personable and easy to work wit

Definitely recommended! Choosing Jill Hess was one of the…read morebest decision we made in the process of being a home owner. Jill's good attitude, professionalism, experience, and great reputation among her colleagues make working with her pleasant. Jill gives you her time unconditionally.

She never pushes you to make decision, she stands by your side while she helps you make the best decision.

The Gallivan Group at Keller Williams Realty has been deserving of a 5 STAR RATING from the initial…read moreinterview to the final closing. Barb Gallivan is a 30 year veteran and has put together a team of professionals to assist the seller with this complicated and time consuming process. The coordination of home inspection, handyman, appraiser, market analysis, photography, advertising, showings, open houses, negotiations, estate sale and final cleaning led to receiving multiple offers. The result was what we had hope for... we sold our home through a seamless process and well above the listing price. Twenty years ago when selling our last house we did not use a realtor. Experiencing the team approach from The Gallivan Group was a welcome change. We felt informed and supported throughout and are very happy with our choice.

Of all the services, food venues, etc. I have reviewed, Barb and her team define what it means to go the extra mile for customer satisfaction and when her team establishes a relationship, it continues well after the sale. It's been several years since her team helped me and even now she stays connected to her clients. I've dealt with realtors (both on selling and buying side) in the Northern Virginia, Chicago and Champaign area (all very active markets) in the last 20 years. I have noticed many times the successful realtors start their own teams and the realtor becomes "too big for their britches". Even after realizing success, Barb remains connected and seems to remembers each of her clients and it's that personal touch that will make a difference as you deal with selling or buying a new home. HIGHLY recommend Barb and her team if you need a team member to help buy, sell or someone to help educate you on the process.
