DO NOT HIRE. We hired Gulf Coast Property Management,…read morespecifically speaking to AnnMarie, to lease and manage our rental property in Fort Myers beginning in January 2026. The property remained vacant for over four months while under their management. During that time, the property was reportedly shown only twice. Despite the extended vacancy, we received very little communication beyond automated weekly emails stating there were "no updates" and "no recommendations at this time." I had to repeatedly request information regarding marketing efforts, showing activity, tenant feedback, and ANY recommendations to improve leasing performance. We were willing to adjust pricing and make changes if necessary, but we were provided with absolutely no proactive guidance - guidance you would expect from a professional property management company. On top of that, our new property manager went out today and discovered that the utilities had never been turned on, and there were mouse/lizard droppings throughout the home. We trusted Gulf Coast to help us rent and take care of this home as we are located out of state. They wasted 4 months of our time and thousands of dollars. This company is a scam and will not take care of your property.

Robert and Janet R Bradenton, FL…read moreTwo years ago, my wife and I decided that it was time to move to Florida. We wanted to rent in the Sarasota area but found places were going very fast! Then we came upon a rental from Florida West Coast Property Management and got in contact with Aimee Bahk. We knew we had to move quickly and Aimee helped get us through the process with ease! Aimee was friendly and professional. She knew the steps we were required to take for us to be approved as renters. Aimee quickly responded to any questions we had during the process. Once our move was successful, Aimee continued to keep in touch. We only had a couple of maintenance issues, which we considered normal, so we notified Aimee. Her response was fantastic! Aimee quickly got the help we needed for the repairs. On more than one occasion, Aimee would say "I appreciate you" as tenants. Well, we appreciate Aimee and want to thank her for all she has done to make our dream a reality!

You might say we were in an unhealthy, co-dependent relationship with our former management company. As in most relationships, it took a crisis for us to realize how badly our former manager was; our former tenant basically sold the property furniture out from under us and the manager claimed ignorance. Anyway, I digress. We were fortunate to have been referred to Florida West Coast Property Managers ("FWCPM") by a realtor when we were considering selling our property. The difference between our former management company and FWCPM could not be greater. Our manager Aimee Bahk is professional, courteous, and a delight to work with. She has helped us through many difficult situations such as finding new tenants and managing repair and installation work orders. If you are in need of excellent management for your rental property on the Florida west coast, look no further than the staff at Florida West Coast Property Management.

She helped me with purchasing my second home and made the process so easy and stress-free. Her demeanor is professional, calm and laid back - no high-pressure sales schtick, Nancy was on point with everything we were looking for. I was on vacation in Sarasota and had a limited amount of time to look for houses (I take my beach-time seriously). Nancy took my 'wants, must haves, and would be nice to have' into consideration, she patiently drove me all over hill and yonder to visit several houses. On my last day of vacation, we finally found the house I was looking for in the perfect neighborhood and in our price range. We did a mail away closing she handled all phases of the process, it was so straight forward, she explained all the documents and it was as relatively stress-free as one can expect. I can get geared up (I'm from NY) and I really appreciated her calm and practical demeanor. Nancy and John are also managing the property and tenants until we retire in a few years - she's doing a fantastic job! I'm so happy with Nancy and John, if you're looking to purchase a property or someone to manage your rentals, I highly recommend Nancy and John!

If they respond to my below review don't let them fool you into thinking they care. They don't!…read moreThey have refused to repair any of the shoddy work. All the issues I reported to them are, in their words, "homeowner responsibility". They are content producing garbage and telling you it's your problem to fix what they couldn't get right. I'm very disappointed in the craftsmanship and finishing. For what their homes cost you would think that they would do top notch work but the longer I live in the home the more disappointed I get. Here's a short list off the top of my head: trim work throughout the house looks like a toddler installed it, the drywall work is the worst I've seen in the six homes I've owned, hollow spots beneath the floor tile can be heard while walking around, our driveway looks like it's been through an earthquake, the cabinets are one notch below ikea, doors don't line up and don't latch properly. Unless you have the time to babysit them throughout the entire build I would find a better builder, one that cares about quality instead of quantity and pays attention to fit and finish.

I generally do not take the time to write reviews. It has to be something either exceptionally…read moregood or bad to get me to make the effort. In the case of MI Homes in the Bradenton/Sarasota FL area, it is the latter. First, I do understand the difference between production builders and a customer builder. I was in building supply for almost 20 years and I have built new 5 times previously and understand the challenges of finding good subcontractors. With the quality of framing, drywall, and trim carpentry to be expected, the builder needs to spend more money to get a painter that can hide some of those sins, not create more. The overall quality is terrible. I recently hung blinds and every opening was a different size, and none of them were square or level. I just completed rehanging the door in my master bathroom because it would not close or lock because it was so out of square. While hanging a wall mounted TV as I tightened the mount to the wall other screw heads began popping through the drywall as they were evidently not driven in completely when the drywall was hung. I am posting some pics of some examples of the "fine" craftsmanship - tile cut with dull blades, finish trim that looks like it was cut with a chain saw, sloppy painting and caulking, poor drywall finish, cabinets that look like they are 10 years old and we have been in less than 2 months....... The most upsetting part of this whole process was the lack of detail provided in the selection process. The model and design center only display the top-level appliances and bathroom finish selections. The drop in quality on the cooktop and dishwasher from what is shown there to what we received was not acceptable, and we are now replacing these items with upgraded units in a house we have lived in for less than 60 days. Worse yet we had no idea that the $1700 upcharge to put a shower in the power room instead of tub did not include the glass shower door. Sara told us "it is basically the same as the frame-less shower door without the frame". Um, not really.....we received sliding glass doors not a hinged door that I would rate below average apartment grade at best. These sliders were not on display in their design center anywhere and we were shocked when they were installed. I reached out to Kevin Archer the VP of Operations with multiple emails in regards to these complaints I received absolutely no response. We still have an extensive punch list to be completed, but in fairness with the COVID restrictions it has been hard to get anyone to the house to fix, but I will update their progress in the future. On the plus side we loved some of their floor plans and their pricing per square foot was reasonable compared to some of their competition, but if you don't have the skills, patience, or money (to hire a quality contractor) to remedy these issues stay far far away.....
