Helping an elderly relative with memory issues sell a…read morehouse in California that she's lived in for over 40 years when I live on the East coast adds additional layers of complexity. Dennis and Sunshine Smith have been there to assist us each step along the way to close of escrow. I've come to rely on Dennis as a trusted advisor who has helped us prepare a house filled with years of clutter and deferred maintenance and market it successfully. Not only did we sell during the holiday season, but also at a time when buyers were fleeing the market due to rising interest rates. His advice comes from years of experience with market fluctuations and time to develop relationships with capable contractors. Together we've faced structural issues, plumbing & sewer issues, electrical issues, termite and wood destroying fungus issues, a break-in from a homeless person, and skunks looking for a "honeymoon suite" under the house! Throughout it all, Dennis has been professional and pragmatic. He suggested a marketing strategy that put the house in its best possible light through de-cluttering and staging. In addition, his marketing strategy helped us minimize buyers' remorse and an erosion of equity that comes when buyers ask for price reductions or threaten to cancel the contract. He helped us sift through multiple offers on the property and negotiate with buyers' agent to urge them for their "best and final offer". I interviewed two other realtors who sent investors to look at the house prior to putting it up for sale. That may have been a quick sale, but I'm glad we ended up working with Dennis and Sunshine Smith because I believe they helped us get the most money out of the house. Barbara N. Burke, Virginia

It is with pleasure that I strongly recommend Dennis and Sunshine Smith, who were my realtors in my search for a home-office-sanctuary in North County San Diego. My primary work was with Dennis who literally went "the extra hundred miles." Because I was living in Hawaii, and because I had a lot of specific and unique needs, Dennis wound up having to drive all around north county to see in person if a house and property would fit my needs. I felt that Dennis did a great job in understanding my needs and giving me an honest evaluation of every property he went to see. I never felt that he was trying to push a property off on me but since it was challenging for me to tell from the pictures, I thought that Dennis did a great job of fully understanding my unique needs and then searching in all of my preferred areas. When he found a property that might work, he scheduled with me for a time to go back and him do a walkthrough with his camera while I zoomed in from Hawaii to view. I know this was quite laborious for Dennis but he persisted with a consistently chipper attitude that I often complimented him on. He retook all the measurements for my added benefit, got me copies of the floor plans and the other relevant information and was thorough in every aspect. I also benefited from Dennis being very knowledgeable about north San Diego County and also very knowledgeable about other areas of San Diego that I was possibly interested in. His communication and availability was excellent and I feel I am a good judge of that as I value that in my work. I consistently felt that he was loyal to me and what would serve me best rather than trying to make a relatively quick sale. We went into escrow a couple of times and Dennis and Sunshine we excellent helping me with all the paperwork as I had many other things going on simultaneously - including some major surgeries and still being the Founder-Director-Owner and a primary Instructor of an adult vocational college. His/their organization of all the paperwork and follow-ups were distinct added benefits. Also, after close of escrow, I received excellent follow-up service. I could go on and on about the many enjoyable benefits of working with Dennis and Sunshine. As I frequently said to them, I felt deep professional appreciation and always extended profound Blessings to both of them! Sincerely and appreciatively, Steve Schechter - now new owner in Carlsbad/North San Diego County, CA.

Update: Thank you for responding. I am glad you are a new owner. Are you affiliated in any way…read morewith previous owners? Do you have the records for previous owners? I know you must think the statute of limitations is over, but, in your good faith, I feel as though you should inherit and rectify some of the previous management's transgressions and reimburse me. I was a struggling single mom. Do you still manage 2233 Manchester, in Cardiff? I also left a portable dishwasher, which was there when I moved in. Hunter Property Management asked me about it, thinking it was mine. They were probably going to also charge me for leaving it! I just have a hard time getting over liars and cheaters. I am now retired and on a fixed income. I was taken advantage of; I couldn't afford to miss work to go to Small Claims Court, at the time. ***************************** I rented an apartment from a lovely older woman property manager, Bonnie, in Cardiff. In fact, my daughter and I had rented a smaller 2 bedroom, 1bath in Solana Beach, where we lived for years. The original property manager suggested we move to a bigger apartment, also 2 bedrooms 1 bath, same owners. My deposit from our previous apartment, which we left very clean, went toward the second, two story apartment. Sadly, Bonnie, the sweet little old lady manager died. Then the owners, who supposedly had over a thousand units, altogether, hired Hunter Property Management. They were TERRIBLE. They wanted a key. I said no. They wanted to go in when I wasn't present. When I gave notice I was leaving, they wanted to show the place. That wasn't in my lease! I don't think they had a copy of my lease. Someone literally tried to break in while I was at work. I was commuting an hour each way, to and from work, in Fallbrook, back then! Before we left, my (young adult) daughter had actually hired a maid, but that was after I cleaned thoroughly. Instead of getting my deposit back (I was in that apartment for over 5 years!) I got less than half back. Hunter Property had a bad reputation of raising everyone's rents, and not giving back deserved deposits. The woman at Hunter Property Management lied and said she hired a maid service! A receipt WITHOUT AN ADDRESS was provided to me for the maid and a window washer. We could not wash the outside upstairs windows. The "townhouse" was over a garage, so I had to walk up a flight of stairs to get to my front door. An interior flight of stairs led to our bedrooms. The inside of the windows was clean. Also, although I cleaned the carpet, it had one small red stain. Again, it was barely visible, and would have been considered normal wear and tear, after over 5 years! Hunter Property Management again lied. After I moved out, when I got the bogus letter lying about alleged damages, I went back to the apartment, before it was rented. I still had a key, although we turned in the original. The key worked, so I entered. Hunter Property Management lied and had said they had "patched the rug" with a piece of rug from a downstairs closet. They did no such thing! Although the carpet was in decent shape, after so many years,they could and should have replaced the entire carpet! It wasn't new when I moved in! i was younger; I foolishly hadn't taken photos. I trusted Bonnie, and didn't think she'd die! Moreover, I thought I couldn't afford to miss work. I considered taking Hunter Property Management to small claims court. I wish I had. In all the years I rented, I was a few days late paying only one rent check. So a late fee was also deducted. But $250 meant a great deal to me back then. I was disgusted with the lies. I was there from the later 80's until 91. The dollar was worth a lot more back then! Thankfully, now I own my home. Anyone renting, especially from Hunter Properties should take photos, do a walk through, if possible. In closing, I notice this company changed its name from Hunter Property Management to Hunter Properties. I suspect this is so all the previous bad reviews, including mine, don't show up!

There were a few things around my place that needed to be repaired and I have been amazed at how quick they are to act on it. Most often same day someone will come out to fix things, or at least same day reaching out to get something scheduled. I also noticed that when I received the application they gave me a mold pamphlet that shows what to be aware of. This was really nice to see given coastal SD is at risk for mold. None of the other places I applied for provided that. 10/10 experience with them

We have used Sandy three times personally and I have referred her to some friends as well. I have…read morenever before used an agent more than once so this is saying a lot already. Sandy goes out of her way to work for YOU, not herself. I can not stress that enough since most agents just want to close the deal and move on because to them 10k here or there doesn't mean a lot in their commision. Working on one deal Sandy already got the property discounted $45k which was almost 10% of the deal price but wanted to go after $5k more. I mean this in the nicest way possible but Sandy is a Bulldog when it comes to working for her client. I could go on and on about her always keeping us in mind when properties come available, making the time to show us anything we wanted when we wanted. However I think the most salient point is this, the last property the owners left a ton of junk behind and Sandy took it on herself to pay a company to come and not only move all the junk out but also clean it up, change out the locks and cover the termite tenting. We did not ask her to do any of those things but she did. I always say you can define a relationship not when everything is going good but when something goes wrong. Time and time again Sandy has without even a word jumped right in the middle of things going wrong and gone out of her way to make it often, beyond right. You should use Sandy if not for anything else her access to everyone and anyone in the industry, you need a window guy, she has one, you need some sort of expertise inspection, she knows a guy, you need a tree guy she'll find one. I know this sounds a little over the top and I am trying not to make it sound that way but when I find someone that knows what they are doing and is great at it I feel like I need to let everyone know. In this crazy real estate market we are in it is really helpful to find someone you can trust and rely on and Sandy and her team are those people.

The new house needed some work before we moved in & Sandy recommended quality contractors who were able to get the job done, even setting up some quotes herself to ensure we kept on track for our move in date. She truly goes above & beyond, I would highly recommend her whether you're buying or selling, she works very hard on your behalf and her great personality is a bonus!
