Wanted to leave a 5 star review for Patsy, owner of Bay Area Escrow Services…read more To be honest, I almost posted a 1 star review for one of the workers who seemed new at the job. I had called him one time asking a question to confirm the escrow number for the wire of my deposit and he rudely answered me when it was not clear on the document. He would also not answer my email questions and seemed to only care about getting his job done or what he needed. I was in an escrow that cancelled very early close to after wiring the deposit and not much had happened yet from the escrow side. I was very ticked off when I saw a proposed $450 escrow fee taken out of my deposit when all they did was receive a deposit and start their escrow process internally. It seemed like they wanted to hold my deposit hostage to charge a high fee to cover their 'admin work.' After getting no response from this worker again and running it by the real estate agent, I called in and Patsy knew what was going on with this file and even though frustrated, she agreed to pay back the full deposit in this situation. I feel that Patsy is sharp, experienced and fair when it comes to people. I could also tell that she works hard to prevent any wires being sent to a scammer/wrong person. Thank you.

This is in response to Jody's reply to my review posted on September 10…read more Thank you for your response. I would like to clarify a few points for the record. Regarding the rental term, our concern is NOT that the lease contained a written six-year guarantee. Before we signed, Jody verbally represented that the landlord planned to remain overseas for approximately six years while their children attended local universities. We relied on that information in deciding to rent the property and understood it to be a stable, long-term rental. Regarding the $300 late fee, our concern was not simply whether the payment processor was down. The payment issue occurred after the management company changed its payment system, and we had a three-year history of timely rent payments. Once we became aware of the problem, we promptly hand-delivered payment to the office. We paid the $300 fee, but continue to believe tenants should not bear the cost of a payment problem arising during the management company's system transition. Regarding cleaning, we understand that tenants may choose their own cleaner. Our concern was the manner in which the company's preferred cleaner was recommended, which left us with the impression that choosing another cleaner could affect our deposit. That communication created unnecessary concern during move-out. Regarding the security deposit, our concern is not the amount of the refund or the deductions, which we understood and approved. We specifically asked for information showing the receipt and handling of the original deposit during our three-year tenancy. Management confirmed that the deposit was held in a Broker Trust account, but did not provide the transaction-specific records or ledger we requested. That is the issue we are seeking clarification about. We appreciate the company's response, but our experience and the company's characterization of events are different.

He seemed nice and respectful during it. However, right after, he said he had to turn us down because he's too busy and he just signed up some new clients. If he had let us know earlier that he was too busy to take us, that would have been completely understandable. However, he did it in such unprofessional way where it just wasted my agent's time.
