I recently had the good fortune to become acquainted with Matthew McLean of Shoreline Realty in…read moreDaytona Beach after observing his excellent service involving the sale of a neighbor's beachside Daytona Beach home. When I decided to put my own house on the market a few months ago, I remembered Shoreline Realty from the name on the side of Matthew's pick-up truck, looked him up, and reached out. We met at my home soon after to get acquainted, have Matthew get a look at the house, and voice our thoughts on appropriate updates/repairs, the asking price, for getting it on the market, etc. With Matthew's guidance and assistance in facilitating preparations, the house was listed on April 20th, had six showings, and had two solid offers within a week. In the interim, I've come to know Matthew as a high-energy person of integrity, with a wealth of local knowledge and resources who grew up in the area and is finely tuned to the local real estate markets. He's reliable, intelligent yet relatable, driven yet chill, and knows how to market properties to the best advantage for both buyers and sellers. His appreciation and knowledge of older homes such as mine, as well as his knowledge of how houses of all eras are put together (and his sense of humor), is a bonus. If you are looking for a real estate agent in Volusia County who's willing to put in the work and go the extra mile, I enthusiastically recommend Matthew McLean of Shoreline Realty.

I am leaving this review to warn others and document my experience with this company in detail, as…read moreI believe there are significant issues with their business practices that prospective renters should be aware of. **Communication & Responsiveness** Throughout the entire process, communication was virtually nonexistent. Neither Diego nor Brock responded consistently to phone calls, text messages, or emails. There was no proactive outreach, no status updates, and no acknowledgment that inquiries were even received. Clients are left entirely in the dark. **Application Process & Transparency** After submitting a completed application and paying all associated fees, the listing was quietly removed with no explanation or communication. We were told we were the only applicants. However, we were later informed that another applicant had "out-scored" us based on an internal scoring system that is never disclosed to applicants. I find it difficult to believe that a competing applicant was able to tour, apply, and be fully approved within a window of roughly 3.5 hours (between 6:00 PM and 9:30 AM). The fees collected are non-refundable regardless of outcome. **Management & Accountability** When we visited the office in person, Brock assured us we would receive an update by end of day. When we followed up the next morning, he stated it was "not his department" and transferred us to voicemail -- this from someone who is listed as an owner of the business. The lack of accountability and dismissive attitude toward paying clients is unacceptable. **Landlord Relations** Perhaps most concerning was a conversation we had directly with the property owners, who shared that they had been waiting months to fill their rental and were on the verge of listing the home for sale -- completely unaware that any interested applicants existed. This suggests a serious disconnect between this company and the landlords it claims to represent. A review of the property's Zillow rental history appears to support a pattern: the listing cycles on and off the market repeatedly, fees are collected, applicants are told another party was selected, and the property is relisted weeks later with claims that the prior placement fell through. **Final Note** I would strongly encourage anyone considering this company to first review their Better Business Bureau profile. Based on the pattern of responses to negative reviews -- typically directing complainants to contact a specific staff member or call the office, with no actual resolution -- I expect a similar response here. Based on our experience, I would not anticipate that contact to lead anywhere productive. This review is submitted in good faith to help others make an informed decision.

I hired Sun Pro Realty and Property Management to find renters for my 3 bedroom town house. After 7…read moremonths and no contract, I fired them. All I heard from them was excuses and numerous requests for me to lower the rent. I was asking the market rental rate. Their advertising was WEAK, I had to ask them to put up a sign and when they did, it was a cheap wire frame sign that the HOA had me remove. Their website presence was horrible and they are not responsive. They posted the wrong pictures, then took weeks to correct it. My sliding screen door was ripped sometime during the showings, I asked them to repair it and they blew me off. I hired a new property manager and had renters within 1 month.

They'll rent you a place in whatever condition, half do jobs, send very questionable/unprofessional contractors, and then turn around and want the rental returned in better condition or charge you. On top of that, they're not very honest or professional from the top down. If you're wanting to live in peace, seek another property management company or even better find a private owner. Oh and watch out for the reviews that are too good to be true. They've offered incentives for votes in the past like no late fee, etc.

Repeated A/C Failures and a Broken Maintenance Structure…read more Realty Medics arranged a new A/C installation in 2020. Since then, the system has failed at least six times. This was not an isolated incident--it became the norm. Realty Medics charged $1,050 for an evaporator coil cleaning, yet the A/C failed again within a few weeks. A new property manager later found a contractor quoting $795 for the same work. The deeper problem is structural: all maintenance is routed through Realty Medics' internal process, while the original contractor's information is not disclosed. In my experience, this resulted in repeated failures, higher charges, and no lasting solution. Property owners should have access to vendor information, warranty records, itemized invoices, and independent estimates.

By Monday evening, gnats were flying around in every room and there were also ants in the kitchen sink and dead gnats in the refrigerator and freezer. Despite reporting it in person Tuesday morning to Lisa Giacona, with Ocean View Realty, pest control didn't come until Wednesday. Maintenance was only told about the bathroom, not the kitchen--the main issue. The infestation lasted our entire stay, making the kitchen unusable and sleep uncomfortable. Additionally, the unit was not clean on arrival: mildew in the shower, dirty appliances, and musty linens. The condo owner offered only a $250 refund, though we requested $650 (about half our stay), which we feel is more than reasonable given the circumstances.
