We rented a home with this agency, mainly due to lack of choices from our preferred vacation…read morerental. The home we rented (for over $400 per night, plus a $200 non-refundable cleaning deposit) was the "Urban Escape" on Sea Ranch. The property itself was in need of some repairs and upgrades: the hot water tank gave out the first night. The rental agency contact did get a plumber out to us, but I had got the pilot to stay lit while he was there, and he left with the wrong diagnosis (improper ventilation). After repeated re-lightings, the pilot would not stay on. We gave up on it. Also, the built-in microwave was kaput, and the original oven controls were missing. A replacement microwave was set on a counter. One day into the stay, a cabinet door to the kitchen sink area fell off. The fill cycle in the master bath toilet would not shut off without jiggling the handle. Coasting Home should have known of the issues with this home, and should not have listed it. Answer? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Elizabeth Kreck has been our agent on both the buying and selling side since 2013. She is an…read moreincredible woman with a wealth of local knowledge and a wonderful down to earth agent. In the summer of 2018, Elizabeth listed our home in Anchor Bay, the house went into escrow within 2 months. I was out of state for most of the transaction but, that was not an issue at all. She communicated everything with me and I felt very confident in her! (As usual!) We closed escrow without any issues. Yay! Last Summer 2019, Elizabeth found our dream home after almost a year of searching, since selling our starter. This house has a lot more privacy and is closer to the ocean. Win Win! She knew exactly what we were looking for and called me the second the listing came into her office. If it were not for Elizabeth, we would never ever have gotten this house as it had not even gone to market yet. A perk of being a client of Mrs.Kreck's!!! She is a complete joy to be around as well.

Absolutely terrible experience. Have been in real estate for many years, dealt with many agents, I…read moremade the mistake of hiring Jeff Ortman. It was negative from the start. Jeff didn't like the fact that our caretaker didn't speak english which was bizarre. He does speak english, and Spanish. He became irate because the housekeeper wasn't finished in time for his photos. He was verbally abusive...I should have fired him immediately. I made the mistake of giving him 3 more months. He didn't attend the few showings we had on the property (he made a point of saying it wasnt in our agreement and he didn't have to)and after another agent pointed out that he mapped our property improperly on MLS (showing it across the highway instead of on the ocean!) he neglected to update the mapping and left as is. We literally had another agent tell us this, and point out he obviously doesn't care. It gets much worse...we fired him almost a month ago yet he refuses to remove our home from MLS. He sent us an invoice for his time demanding that we pay him or he refuses to remove the home from MLS. I contacted the broker Cindy Kennedy, left her a message without even a returned call. All of this is a testament to horrible ethics, can you how they would handle a negotiation if they ever found a buyer...I have been at this for 20 years and bought and sold many houses. Don't even think about hiring these people. I didn't even know them and have never met them in person. Brutal. PA I wonder what they are saying to agents and buyers who call on a house they were instructed to remove from MLS weeks ago. I am going to sue them.

From the beginning we were told outright lies: - they said it was fully permitted, but the Planning Department proved otherwise - they said there was no logging nearby, but the adjoining property was MRC with a logging easement 20 feet from the bedroom - they said it had never been surveyed, but we found markers and 2 calls got us to a guy who had recently done a survey - they misrepresented clear conflicts out interest between them and the seller - these are only a few of the examples of deliberate deceit. We really wanted the property but backed out when they wouldn't allow time for us to check the property line with respect to the well.

We weren't sure what we were looking for and Andrew's knowledge of the area combined with tremendous patience was invaluable. He listened to what we wanted and helped us hone in on the perfect house.

Again, he was patient and kind as we finalized paperwork, and we were happy with how he worked for us to close on time. We love our house and the area. We couldn't be happier. Thank you, Andrew!
