Be aware of this property management!!! Trust me…read more They are not professional people without any adequate communication. No callback, no update for my placement of the rental. Day 1 to Day 11, there were no responsible windows, and everybody said different things. We wasted our valuable time, energy and money, unfortunately. The other people left reviews on your business such as: Agents are extremely slow in getting back, ghosted clients after getting the contract... Maybe this is what it is. "SLOW AND NOT COMMUNICATIVE" represents their business well. And I complained about no updates and not keeping their promised date without informing us. And Cheryl kept making stupid excuses, absurd justifications. It was very tiring. And another property manager, Jason suddenly joined and insulted me by saying I used abusive words toward Cheryl?? Even I haven't talked with her on the phone and all of our messages are on file. Such an absurdity. Mercy on them. They don't want to fix their problems instead they blame us. They are always off the point and so unprofessional without sincerity. I hope nobody will have this kind of experience as I had with them.

Worst tenant experience ever!!!…read more Zero Stars -Windermere PM is a complete rip-off and scam. They will take your hard earned $$ and not give a bleep about returning it. They say, "we will return hold fee if you are rejected or need a co-signor" NOPE, huge liars, they HAVE NOT REFUNDED ME, saying I rejected rental, which I did because I could not afford to pay $4K in fees!, and they did not want me to get a co-signor (I told them I had one). They are an absolute nightmare and I am truly considering small claims court to get my $500 back. Do not waste your time, like other lady said, "you are dealing with satan." I wouldn't expect this from a large company like Windermere, but boy was I wrong. Filing complaints with FHA and FBI, to prevent other people from getting their hard earned money taken. STAY AWAY-YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!! You are just $$$ Signs to them.

He knows the best (and worst) contractors, companies, and businesses on the island. Dave will make sure the home you're buying is exactly what you're looking for. He went out of his way on day one without even hesitating to handle a rental lease my husband and I did not want to renew and dealt with the property manager who was a nightmare for us on our behalf. The home inspector we used (Dave recommended) not only found the roof needed replacing but Dave was able to work a brand new 50 year roof into the negotiations along with the new furnace after recommending having an inspection done on the old one. He knows exactly what he's doing and thanks to his expertise and knowledge we got the home of our dreams. He has been available even after the home purchase for recommendations, referrals, and he genuinely cares about his clients.

My experience with this agent has been extremely disappointing, and I would not personally choose…read moreto work with her. In my opinion, she presents herself as though she personally drives the entire process, even though she appears to operate with a large team of agents and support staff. That may work for some sellers, but from my perspective it makes the service feel more like a high-volume operation than a personally attentive real estate practice. I have also observed multiple listings that, in my opinion, appeared significantly overpriced and then sat on the market until substantial price reductions were made. In one instance, a property was taken off the market and then relisted at approximately $500,000 less. Even after that reduction, I still believed the property was overpriced based on my own review of the market. My biggest concern is the way she has handled buyer interest at prices below her asking price. When I expressed interest at what I believed was a more realistic price, her responses felt defensive, dismissive, and personally offended rather than professional. Instead of simply asking for the offer to be submitted and allowing the seller to evaluate it, she characterized the interest as "lowballing." When asked to support the listing price with comparable sales, she did not provide any meaningful comparable evidence. Most recently, after I reached out to see whether a potential offer could work, her immediate response was to ask who my Realtor was. When I told her, she replied, "How come she's not doing her job?" I found that response rude, arrogant, and unprofessional. In my opinion, a listing agent should not treat a buyer's pricing opinion as a personal insult, nor should she appear to shut down buyer interest before the seller has had a fair opportunity to consider it. To be clear, this review is based on my personal experience and opinions. I am not claiming to know what discussions occurred privately between the agent and her seller. However, as a prospective buyer, I was left with the impression that she was more focused on defending her list price and protecting her ego than encouraging a serious negotiation. Based on my experience, I would caution buyers and sellers to ask direct questions, request actual comparable sales data, and make sure all offers and buyer interest are being handled professionally and transparently.

I concur with everything that JoDee wrote about her. Not only is she very knowledgeable about real estate, services and the island but she has incredible tenacity.

After mutually agreeing to do certain things to get the house ready for me to move in, Julie volunteered to come back 5 times to make sure the work was done completely, not just halfway. Her integrity and dedication to her clients are phenomenal. I would highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home. IN SHORT, JULIE HAS YOUR BACK!
