The fact that this Company has anything but a 1 or 2 star rating is absolutely baffling. We moved…read morein to a place October 2025. Everyone on the incoming team was great, they answered questions, helped us navigate the millions of pages of documents you have to go through. Then comes move in day. We move in, brand new hot water heater and no hot water to any of the facets. 2 days it takes for them to get someone there to fix the problem, now we have hot water. After the line is open for a good 2 minutes. Which now causes my water bill, that they said they cover up to a certain amount. Now let's talk about the SmartRent crap, it's a useless app that is supposed to consolidate all the Smart devices in one app. In reality it's a way for them to control their own property. The thermostats can be set on a schedule so you don't have to fiddle with it constantly, I was finally forced to disable the schedule on this cheap thermostat. The cooling unit from 2011 is severely undersized for the vaulted ceiling in this the house. The east of the house almost never cools off, so now we have to spend extra money on fans to try and keep ourselves cool. Our electric bill has climbed by about $40 every month we have lived here. And even IF the thermostat, which is on the west side of the house closest to the intake with lowered ceilings reaches the desired temp, it still doesn't shut off. Their customer service is useless, you email or call and they just pass you around to someone else because it's "not their job". You have to pay in the portal because the nearest office to pay in person is an hour away, for this they charge you a fee. You pay $30 dollars a quarter for cheapest filter you can buy. Then you pay for pool services, the "company" the use does less then the bare minimum, ours has a spa that heater has been removed. This company is the only ones in South Florida that don't provide these for their customers. Even their competitors have storm covers installed on the windows and doors. My list is a mile long and you all are probably tried of read my ramblings. I have never dealt with a more unprofessional, uncaring company in my life. I feel there will be another class action lawsuit coming soon. AND, they cancelled the 2nd ProCare visit 14 days before it was supposed to take place because I had not reported any issues, OHHH my friends, do we have issues. The problem is with the ProCare visit, you can only point out 3 for the time they allot for the visit, because the ProCare visit is more of an inspection than a maintenance call. We have owner provided outdoor lights hanging from the side of the house, the back gate latch is broken. The primary shower doesn't have the proper slope to drain properly, so the caulk around the base is coming off. A panel in the back fence is being held up by my own zip ties because the wood rotted enough around the screws that it fell down. Now yes, I could call in a work order for all these issues, but like most of you good folks, I have a job and that doesn't pay me to stay home and wait for whenever Invitations Maintenance decides to delightfully grace us with their unqualified presence. I got a message for the last repair at 8:30, tech is on the way. They show up 3 hours later, look at the issue, "oh we're gonna have to call a vendor to fix this." My jobsite is an hour with no traffic from my rental. This latest issue, the finally determination after 6 weeks was that the water line to the ice machine was leaking and the water was freezing up the fan, which thawed out our entire freezer and spoiled our perishables in the fridge. 6 WEEKS!!! Invitations response, " we are not responsible for the loss of food by our equipment (that we inspect every time we visit to make sure it's the same one as when you moved in) because we put it in the lease that we aren't responsible for our own equipment." Their suggestion was to file a claim on our renter's insurance so out of $600 minus the deductible we get enough back for maybe a weeks worth of food, then our rates go up. KICK ROCKS Do your family and yourself a favor and steer clear of all Invitation Homes. If I could give them zero stars, I would every time. Hell can I give them negative stars to combat the bots and employees that give them 4 or 5 star reviews?

Therefore, I knew I needed a property management company to handle those unique set of challenges in my absence. I had researched many properties management companies online in the Fort Lauderdale area. I happened to come across Icon Realty Management and Brokerage. After reading the great reviews and my conversation with Ben and finally meeting him at the property. I decided to have them manage my property. Within 2 days of Icon Realty having the property in their listings, it was rented on day 2 (two). Ben, At Icon Realty has truly been professional and responsive thought the whole process.

I believe that Icon Realty was involved in hacking my bank account. I leased an apartment in the heart of las olas/Fort Lauderdale from December 2016, from Atlantic loft llc. I agreed to pay a 2 month security deposit of $2400 as well as first, last and security (pretty standard) got my key, etcétera. After 2 different companies handling our property, ICON Realty came in January 2020 and revamped property by implementing a ***online payment service ***** aka , a way to get into your bank account. I questioned who this is and why I had to use this system to pay, not only to be replied with "It is our new system and you have to use it, you must pay rent this way or consult your attorney" As I went ahead and used it but decided to not renew my upcoming ending lease of 3/30/20. I emailed, texted and explain that I would not be renewing the lease because not only I don't trust the payment system, I had a very difficult time communicating with Benjamin (who by the way runs the whole thing). He ignored all my calls and the ones he replied, he did very rudely. I promptly moved out on schedule and handed him the keys along with my original lease agreement. He took the keys and said that He did not have a refund and I would need to wait 30 days to receive one on the mail. Now 30 days later. My bank account has been HACKED and bank investigated the multiple charges leading back to that January rent payment. I have been getting random withdrawals from different wiring entities totaling over 1k so far. Due to covid19, I can not yet file a claim in court. And the reason I am writing this is to WARN tenants and landlords about companies like this! I am attaching the refund check I just received. What a joke! See you in court.

I originally bought my house in 2008 (yes I know the bubble hadn't quite burst yet, but realistically a lender wouldn't have given me money in the bottom of the crash, so it all worked out for me) with an alright interest rate. Then rates got lower, and lower, and I sat back putting real thought in to refinancing. I did my research and decided refinancing was for me only to get dreams broken due to the fact that my home was then underwater. Finally Obama did something about that and I became eligible for the HARP program and my lender contacted me about refinancing. All in all the process was a tad bit trickier than when I had even gotten the original loan as now interior home insurance was required by the lender and lots of other annoying things, but the one piece of good news was that I was able to select my own title agency and did just that by choosing Approved Title. When I originally bought the house I had no idea what I was doing and just went with what my Realtor said. My original closing was at some awful time during the day that required me to leave work early and wasn't at all on my schedule. This time around Approved Title let me choose a time that worked for me - after work hours and I was in and out within an hour. The whole process was very smooth and any questions I had were explained to me. I highly recommend choosing Approved Title!
