If I could give CBR Realty a NEGATIVE Zero Rating, I would.
Be advised this is NOT a company who will look after your best interests.
My personal experience and opinion is as follows.
You will be "setting yourself up, to actually being deceived, up to and including lied to, time and time and time again."
Expect to be charged for repairs that are either unnecessary, or "just made up" let aloe - never done. I was even sent a 57 page list of repairs they alleged needed to be done on one of my vacant properties! I had someone check it out. All it needed was a "good cleaning."
Once I had learned that truth,
After Paying them the $7,500 requested for repairs (and duplicate entries found on my invoice statements) and other errors, which was "allegedly" placed in "escrow" they stated would be used for those repairs. And yet, thy delayed repairing it, month after month after month, with one excuse after the other. (I was forced to sell it (at a loss) because I was not able to pay my taxes on my rental properties, from their abusive practices (yes, I would definitely call it that - and more) like stealing.
They will then offer insult to injury, by offering to sell your rental property!
I refused, as I (thought) I was not going to allow them to "steal" another penny from me. And yet, they would not pay the $7,500 I had paid them -in advance - for repairs, they never had to make.
They then refused to respond to my emails or phone calls, timely. The owners told me they would no longer accept my calls, and to email them. Which I did. Without response.
I guess they "thought" I was just going to let them keep my money!
I was left no choice but to hire an attorney to get my money back. Which they paid - sporadically. Some months $500 - or $1,000. Some months late.

I was fortunate that the wholesaler who had initially sold me, my 5 rental properties shared that "Brittany Turnbow of Turnbow Real Estate" recently opened and was a reputable, honest, licensed property management and real estate agent. She planned to build her business by "Word of Mouth."
I s/w and switched my properties over to her for management, IMMEDIATELY.
if you want to receive timely, monthly rental payments, EACH AND EVERY MONTH, AND timely INVOICE statements, that you actually can count on. While being assured no one has been "dipping their hands into your till," then I would STRONGLY RECOMMEND switching over to her company IMMEDIATELY.
Even if you've been with CBR under a year, and have to pay a penalty? You would still be "ahead."
