They will absolutely make you feel like their only client despite all of their other listings. Phil Kolbrich will be a tireless advocate for you and your property. I encountered Phil one evening when he was going door to door promoting one of his listings. He wasn't pushy or intrusive, but friendly and conversational. I enjoyed meeting him. Over the next few months, I noticed he was out quite a bit walking the neighborhood. We chatted a few time's randomly, as I walked my dogs and we crossed paths. He was always pleasant, knowledgeable about the market, and his enthusiasm was contagious. When it came time to sell our home, my wife and I invited Phil to come over to hear what Top Orlando Homes had to offer. Their presentation was great! It was professional and to the point. What we liked most about Phil and Gisele was their realistic approach to pricing. They did not tell us what we wanted to hear just to get our business. We had a frank discussion comparing our home to what was currently available and what we should expect. It was a good no nonsense meeting. Phil and Gisele were able to answer all of our questions. Once we signed on with Top Orlando Homes, Phil and his team marketed our home aggressively. Our home was on all of the top sites, and it was one of the top viewed homes for days. We scheduled an open house, but we had offers days before it took place. There were multiple offers at asking and over listing price. Our home was under contract before we could blink. That's all it took. We were thrilled! Phil Kolbrich and Top Orlando Homes were great. We could not have asked for more or had an easier experience selling our home. If you want the best for yourself while selling your home, you should talk to Phil Kolbrich at Top Orlando homes.

Avalon is considered a good neighborhood in Orlando. Though this assumption is generally true,…read moreavoid at all costs taking a property run by Avalon Management. Rude and discourteous service are the norm. After having our application approved, we submitted photos of issues that required immediate correction. Within the hour they did a 180 and stated 'this won't be a good fit'. FYI, as a client you should never feel forced to accept a property with issues. The axiom the client is always right is not the way Avalon does business. I feel sorry for the owner of the house. He has trusted folks with his property that are not taking good care of it and worse, turning away qualified clients. We took our money and thanked God that they were not ours landlords.

I've been using Avalon Management for going into my second year now. Overall I'm impressed by the…read morelevel of professionalism and response from the entire staff. I was looking to find tenants for my home when my wife and I were moving out of state for a new job. The property management staff promptly made an appointment to come by, do a tour of the property and take pictures. The person who came (John I think) came by and went over the terms of the management agreement. I decided to take advantage of the full package where they would find the tenants and manage all aspects of repair for the property. This seemed like the easiest for me as I wanted to be as hands off as possible with the management of the tenants. Their fee is pretty straightforward and their organization of documents and owner statements helps keep my life easier come tax time. It's easy to set up a direct deposit and the payments are collected and deposited in a timely manner. They will even agree to take and manage HOA payments by deducting them from the rent paid. When an issue comes up like a repair is required, or a homeowner's association notice is issued, they are quick to email and eventually follow up with a phone call. I've only had one "issue" with them. They received a homeowners association notice that my walls were dirty and needed to be repainted. Avalon Management quickly took note of this and got a quote for a new paint job. The quote came back pretty pricey. Instead I asked them to get a quote for a power wash and have the HOA reevaluate if the painting still needed to be done. Turns out, that's all it took was a nice power wash of the wall. Overall I'm pleased with Avalon Management and have even recommended them to a couple of my friends.

We had to temporarily move out of state for work for a few years. Instead of selling our home, we…read moredecided to rent it out. To this end, we contracted with the company "RentWorks" to be the property managers for our home in Avalon Park. They were the property management division of the Century 21 agency in the same location. Jerry, the agent my wife worked with was amiable enough, but seemed a bit flighty - though this seems to be a common trait among Real Estate Agents. He delivered on his promise though, and found us good tenants in just a few weeks. And then it all went downhill. At some point over the next year, Rentworks became Selective Realty. As I understand it, Jerry departed the company, or was otherwise no longer working in the Property Management division. As will happen with homes, some small issues came up over the year. The agent we dealt with was slow to respond in communications, and came to us with stories that would change from one conversation to the next. Since we are out of the state, we rely on the agency - who IS local (less than a five minute drive away) to be our eyes and ears on the ground. The worst issue we have had with them is them charging us for repairs that they have made, but never received our authorization for. The first instance of this was last year when the tenants became concerned with some water seeping in near the back door. The back porch of the house has always been damp, so this was not completely unexpected. But before permitting repairs, we wanted a handyman take a look and provide an estimate. Since we had recently parted ways with our other handyman, Rentworks/Selective Realty said they had one that they usually used. They were sending "American Pro Maintenance". We would later look up this company, and only be mildly surprised to notice that the address for "American Pro Maintenance" was the same address as Selective Realty and Century 21. The handyman was instructed to visit the premises, inspect the damage and report back his recommendation and estimates. Depending on the severity, we would decide how to proceed, or if it was even necessary to proceed. A day goes by, and no word back from Selective Realty or their handyman. A few days go by, and nothing. No response to our communications with them either. Finally after a few weeks, we hear back from them. The handyman had performed the repair and the fee would be taken out of the rent. Wait. What? The tenants were worried that they would be held liable for the damage, and they and the handyman decided it was necessary to perform the repair immediately. They charged us $220 to install a weather strip ($15 from Home Depot). We asked why we had not been notified as he had been instructed, and just kept getting the same line back about it having been "an emergency". Even if it had been absolutely necessary, a two minute phone call from any one of the involved parties should have been made. Selective Realty offered no excuse and no apology, only acknowledging our instruction that NO REPAIRS ARE TO BE MADE WITHOUT EXPLICIT AUTHORIZATION IN THE FUTURE. And yet, here we are again... With another fee for a repair that we never authorized. When we received our rent payment, there was money missing. Checking with the agent, we learned it was for a lock replacement. $150 for a lock replacement ($50 from Home Depot). At first we were told that it was the back door, and the agent wasn't sure if the key had been changed. Then the story changed to it being the front door, and confirming that the key had not been changed. Once again, no excuse and no apology. Well, I'm sorry. I'm sorry we ever hired this company. All we asked for was to be notified of issues PRIOR to repair. In both cases, we WOULD have authorized the repair, but we were not given the option. In short, Selective Realty got us good renters, but has been a terrible property management company. Look elsewhere for your property management needs.

Also, when we first moved in, there was an issue with the AC and they said it was our fault because we had not cleaned the filter, but we had JUST moved in. Also, their "grace" period is until the 4th, not the 5th. Late fees are 5% and 10 dollars per day and if they are closed for a holiday and you are late with the rent due to that holiday they still charge a late fee. I don't think that's even legal and will be looking into it. As far as from an owner's perspective, I don't think they pass along complaints to the owner at all. Not happy that we still have almost a year with this!
