My husband and I were first time home buyers in the city. Cameron was a godsend. Shes local and…read moreknows the neighborhoods extremely well. She sent us listings meeting our requirements and requests regularly, would get us showings within a day or two of requesting, and was a true professional when it came to helping us make decisions. She'd walkthrough and point out issues and give us information on the water heater, HVAC, and electrical panel. We managed to find the house for us within a week and the day we decided to put in an offer she sat down with us on a Saturday evening to walk us through the best plan for putting in an offer to give us the best chances of getting the house and for the best price possible. After we went under contract she helped organize all the inspections and make our list of fixes to request to the seller (all of which were accepted). I was extremely nervous going into the home buying process but Cameron was the best person to have throughout it.

To update my review: my realtor toured this property on April 18 and reported a natural gas smell…read more The owner claimed the fire department had checked and found no leak, but the fire department later stated they had no record of any such visit. We moved across the country on June 4, six weeks after reporting the issue, and the gas leak was still ongoing. A contractor later told us the levels were severe enough that we were fortunate a major incident had not occurred. The owner's contractor also improperly replaced the gas line with an undersized one, according to Spire, and I was the person contacting Spire throughout the process. They let me know that the pipe the contractor replaced was 1/4th inch too small and could lead to carbon monoxide or gas buildup in the lines. During the nine months we lived there, two additional gas leaks occurred in other areas of the system. After spending over $10,000 to move and paying rent for May while the house sat vacant, Stephanie Olsen told me over the phone that "this isn't working out" and that we would need to find another place if we continued being "ungrateful." We ultimately moved out early after 10 months, and paid April 2026 rent while the property was vacant and we were in a new rental. The house itself had numerous issues: filthy vents filled with years of dust and mold, insect infestations (basement had roaches, beetles and grasshoppers) requiring extermination, and a failing sump pump system with drain flies that contributed to a very strong basement odor. The home was at times uninhabitable due to the gas smell, causing headaches and dizziness for both me and my Mom, and we paid out of pocket for hotel stays. This experience was emotionally and financially exhausting. After being threatened with eviction, do you really think I felt comfortable reporting every issue with the house? Of course not. So we financially covered multiple issues due to fear of retaliation.

To update my review. My realtor toured this property on April 18th and reported the smell of…read morenatural gas. The owner said she called the fire department and there was no gas leak. ( fire department had no record) We moved from across the country on June 4th . The gas leak was ongoing. The contractor hired by the owner was incompetent and replaced the gas line with too small of a line per spire. And I'm the one who contacted spire every time . We went on to have 2 more gas leaks in the 9 months we lived in this home . At other areas of the gas system. Stephanie Olsen definitely threatened to let me out of my lease in June when we spoke on the phone after I had just spent $8,000 dollars and payed rent for May( while the house was vacant). And no one would be happy with this situation. We left early and payed for April of this year while the house was vacant. This company and the homes owner were awful. Stephanie literally screamed at me and threatened to evict me on the phone until I was in tears. The house was literally inhabitable due to the extremely strong smell of gas, which was causing headaches and dizziness for me and my son. We paid to stay in a hotel. The vents were filthy with dust and mold that had not been cleaned for years. We had to pay for an exterminator due to a hornet and grasshopper infestation, a plumber for a failing sump pit motor infested with drain flies / worms, which also contributed to the basement odor. The list goes on but my point is - this was a nightmare both emotionally and financially for us. Do you really think I'm going to report every issue wrong with the home after I was threatened with eviction? Obviously not.

DAN BRASSIL: REALTOR EXTRAORDINAIRE! Searching for a real…read moreestate agent that you can be 100% confident in to meet your home buying goals and timelines? Dan Brassil is your man! My wife and I couldn't have been happier with our decision to work with Dan to help us find and secure our new Saint Louis home. WE DID OUR RESEARCH We did research on about 10 different realtors, interviewed 4, and Dan Brassil was our clear choice. We picked him as he gave an immediate sense of comfort and confidence through his professionalism and deep knowledge of the real estate industry and home buying/selling overall. WORKED ON A TIGHT TIMELINE As out-of-state home buyers, we knew we needed someone who we could trust to have our backs and was equipped to manage virtual home tours and work on our tight schedule. This was a super important factor especially since we only had 2 months to close on a home. GREAT LISTENER & HIGHLY RESPONSIVE Dan listened to all of our preferences, set up our MLS portal in no time, and was incredibly responsive to all the homes we favorited and pointed to the pros and cons of listings we were considering across multiple dimensions like the neighborhood, construction quality, and more. MASTER COORDINATOR OF HOME TOURS We planned one visit to Saint Louis and Dan had lined up 8 homes for us to tour and scheduled them in a way that was most efficient and convenient for our flight schedule. We were highly impressed with his ability to coordinate all the private showings in such a streamlined manner. KNOWLEDGEABLE IN HOME BUILD QUALITY Every home we visited Dan educated us on home construction and pointed out critical facets to watch out for: from the foundation, to drainage, ducting, the types of wiring, flooring, basement integrity, sump drains, cracks in walls, down to the types of bolts used on the deck. Amazing! OUT-OF-STATE FRIENDLY As out-of-state buyers he visited homes on our behalf with his camera and a gyroscope, and uploaded videos to YouTube for us to review in a very timely manner. He made sure to cover every nook and cranny of interest and the virtual tours made us feel like we were actually there. PRIORITIZES YOUR BEST INTERESTS Dan was also highly proficient when it came time to make offers on homes, and had a strong sense of fair market valuations based on comps, and was able to figure out what a strong competitive offer would be based on seller agent intel, and what was just unreasonable. NO-FRILLS NEGOTIATOR When it came time to negotiate the terms of our agreement Dan always gave us multiple options to consider, laid out the pros and cons of each path, and shared his best recommendation. He always made us feel like we were in control even in tough situations. AMAZING NETWORK AND CONNECTIONS Dan is also highly networked in the real estate and home repair ecosystem and put us in touch with an amazing lender, title company, inspectors, and even helped us coordinate minor and more major repairs on the home with high quality contractors we knew we could trust. PERSONAL TOUCH With Dan we didn't feel like our home buying process was transactional in nature. He was always incredibly professional and highly personable and was a pleasure to work with. He made sure we were comfortable in our new home and also offered tons of local recommendations! OUR VERDICT: DAN IS THE MAN! Looking for a realtor you can trust to meet your goals, someone who is highly knowledgeable and professional, knows how to quickly navigate those inevitable curve balls, and always has your best interests in heart and mind? Then go with Dan - 10/10 couldn't recommend more!

The apartment is in an exceptional neighborhood, with easy access to Forest Park via the beautiful Wydown corridor as well as a close walk to restaurants, cleaners and a Starbucks. The folks in the neighborhood significantly enhanced the community feel with friendly reach outs while walking their dogs or just strolling in the tree lined streets. Also, as a frequent traveler, I was very pleased with the easy access to the airport from it quaint Clayton location. I found the Landlord Larry to be quite attentive to the lease holder needs and always concerned about the well being of the property, both in and around the the apartments. Any repairs or needs were promptly addressed. He even added items (e.g. power outlets and bike racks) without requests, just because he saw the needs of his tenants. The building has a wonderful Tudor exterior with six apartments. It also has easy access to the upper floors by a an elevator, but also has a period staircase that complements the Tudor architecture. I found the community rooftop very peaceful and inviting. The all granite counter tops in the kitchen and bathrooms, the beautiful stone showers along with high end appliances also added to the luxury feel of the apartment and complex. Oxford manor was perfect for me, and I couldn't have been more pleased with my time there and the support of the landlord and his commitment to the comfort of the tenants and the care taking of the apartments. Highly recommend.

It was difficult and they were not nice about it. Then, they preset the air conditioning to shut off at 11:00 PM and not turn on again until 7:00 AM and it was hot! Daughter had an asthma attack because of it but they could care less. It was all about the owners wanting to make more more money at our expense! I'd find someplace else if I were looking in St. Louis again. The rate was also twice as much as another 4 bedroom we rented a 1/2 block away for the wedding! No value, no decent check in, no air conditioning at night and no customer service, accomodation or even apology!

I had a positive experience with Rick and his team over at Efthim…read more I viewed one of their sweet south city homes, submitted my app and was approved and ready to go in just about a week or so. This was critical for me as I was traveling a bit and not able to spend much time on the move in process. During my stay, maintenance was always prompt and thorough. I like that they typically left a note with what they did so I'd be updated and aware that someone had been there. I ended up relocating so moved out at the end of my lease. That process was completely straight forward too and I even got a quick call from Rick making sure everything was ok (and there were no issues) and seeing what prompted my move. I like the personal touch that Efthim provided me as a renter and I'd certainly lease from them in the future if back in St. Louis!
