I am writing to highly recommend the Gordon Team Realty to any investor looking to build or expand…read moretheir real estate portfolio. My husband and I recently worked with William Gordon to acquire a rental property in Bakersfield, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. William pointed out structural details and neighborhood trends that we could have missed. He was always a text or call away, regardless of the hour. WIlliam never pressured us to make an offer and instead focused on finding the right "fit." When we finally found the right property, his negotiation skills ensured we got the house at a fair price despite several competing offers. The entire team kept the closing process seamless and organized. If you want an agent who treats your investment as if it were their own, look no further than the Gordon Team Realty.

Our experience with Watson Realty and the Gordon Team was extremely disappointing…read more The MLS listing was incomplete, important features of our home were omitted, and we found ourselves having to point out information that should have been included from the start. The photography felt rushed and poorly coordinated, and communication throughout the listing was lacking. We were not notified about a second showing, and we often felt left out of important parts of the process. When concerns were raised, they were not handled professionally. Instead of addressing issues, we were met with arguments and comments such as, "I've never had to do this before," which made it seem as though our concerns were being treated as an inconvenience. The service felt very hands-off, more like a lockbox listing than the full-service representation we expected. We also felt pressured to accept an extremely high 9% commission/closing cost structure that we believed was not in our best interest. The final straw was when we lost confidence in the representation and simply requested to be released from the listing agreement. Our request was denied. The situation became so difficult that we ultimately had to hire an attorney to help resolve the matter. Selling a home is one of the largest financial transactions most families will ever make. We expected professionalism, communication, and advocacy. Instead, we spent much of the process correcting mistakes, chasing information, and fighting to protect our own interests. Based on our experience, we would not recommend this team to other sellers. In 2026 we tried to sell our house using them, we are an official verified client. In response to Williams comment below, Christine C is my wife, we live in the home together and are selling it together.

I started looking for a property manager when I found out I was being relocated by my job. I knew I…read morewould be leaving for a couple of years but would eventually move back to Bakersfield so I knew I wanted to keep my home and rent it out if it made sense. I checked out a few managers but really got hooked with RPM Bakersfield, and I am so glad I chose them! My initial call I was greeted promptly by their sales agent who was happy to help me with my situation. She walked me the process over the phone and their usual steps of bringing on a new client. She ran a property evaluation that gave me an idea of what I could expect for my home to rent. We agreed it would work out the way I wanted with renting versus selling since I really wanted to keep my home. I really liked that their tenant selection process is very thorough. Since I want to move back when I'm able I'd really like for my home to stay in as good of condition as possible. They were quick to get my home rented out and I appreciated that it looked like my home was listed on every site I could find so I knew they were doing their best to get it visible. Through it all I found the staff helpful and knowledgable and very capable of helping my navigate the busy world of landlord and tenancy! I feel confident leaving the management of my home in RPM's hands while I'm away! I'll miss my home but I won't miss the heat!

Despite leaving my apartment in excellent condition and even paying for professional carpet…read morecleaning, over $1,500 was deducted from my security deposit for "cleaning services and carpet cleaning." I documented the unit with videos before moving out. When I returned the keys, management told me they would reach out if they needed the carpet cleaning receipt. Instead, weeks later they told the owner that no cleaning had been done -- without ever contacting me for proof. When I followed up, they stalled, first saying repairs were being contracted out and they "weren't sure yet." Eventually, I received an invoice from a company called "De la O Janitorial Services." This company does not exist -- there is no business license, no record in state databases, and the invoice lists only a P.O. Box. When I requested proof of payment, management was unable to provide any evidence that this supposed contractor was paid. This experience feels misleading and raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of their billing practices. Tenants should be very cautious and document everything thoroughly if renting from this company.

They have a big network, and they'll sell your place, but if you want a profit, I wouldn't suggest working with them.

Frontier RES's accounting is bad. Clients might want to watch out for fraud or embezzlement. My online portal says I owe DOUBLE the amount for my monthly HOA dues. Wrong! Good thing I have the cancelled checks to prove it. Also, Frontier RES does not respond to emails in a timely manner. It takes at least two emails and by the second one, if you write to everyone you have an email address for from the top down, then you may get a response. Judging from the other One Star comments on Yelp for this funny business, I can see I am not alone! Geesh, what a cut-rate bunch of losers.

Eventually Lorena called me back. She was the best. When I left they didn't have time to do a walk through.
