As a fellow Realtor, I have really enjoyed working with Lynn Nichols.

She handles her transactions with efficiency, professionalism and care.

My best friend is moving and she never uses Yelp to post reviews, but she did use Yelp to find Lynn…read moreNichols to assist her with her real estate needs in the Rio Grande Valley. Based on my friend's pleasant experience with her, Lynn Nichols of Trendsetters Realty (www.onthemovergv.com) has been a great source of information with the pre-move process and now, the in-the-move process. I know that my bff's cross state move from New Mexico to Texas has been a particularly stressful one for her and I also know first hand that Lynn has been instrumental in helping to ease this major transition. Lynn is extremely knowledgeable about the area and the contacts needed for a move, even down to the company of movers that are trustworthy to use in McAllen. She made knowledgeable recommendations on where to go for daily living needs, including banking, shopping, and restaurants. Safety is a primary concern, and Lynn made that her number one priority in the price range in which my friend is looking. Initially, my friend was unsure whether moving to a house or building a new house was right for her, but Lynn was flexible and set up appointments for houses to visit and examine as well as builders in the area. Lynn was working with my friend even BEFORE my friend was certain she would be moving into the area. Lynn was hands-on. There are no assistants or a secretary you have to bypass in order to get to her. She is also extremely punctual and patient. If these characteristics are important to you, Lynn is highly recommended for your real estate needs, especially if you are going to be new to the area. I'm doing what I can to support my friend during this very momentous move in her life and thankfully, there are professionals like Lynn Nichols to assist in the process with a level of courtesy, efficiency, and knowledge that has been in one word EXEMPLARY and leaves very little, if anything, to be desired!

If I could give zero stars, I would. Working with Francisco Pacheco of Alliance Real Estate Group…read morewas one of the most frustrating and disappointing experiences I've ever had with a real estate professional. From the very beginning, he seemed charming but soon came across as disorganized and unmotivated -- and things only got worse from there. Francisco repeatedly failed to return calls and emails, missed critical deadlines, and demonstrated a shocking lack of knowledge about even the most basic aspects of the real estate process. It became clear early on that he was either completely out of his depth or simply didn't care. Either way, it was unacceptable. Worse yet, I witnessed several instances of dishonest and unethical behavior that made me question not just his competence, but his integrity. He misrepresented facts, gave misleading information, and seemed more interested in closing a deal quickly than doing right by his clients. If you're looking for someone who is lazy, unprofessional, and completely unreliable, Francisco Pacheco fits the bill. But if you care about your investment, your time, or your sanity--look elsewhere. There are far better, more trustworthy agents in Texas. Don't make the same mistake I did.

PMI RGV notified our HOA that they would be shutting down their management services, and ever…read moresince, they've been completely unresponsive. Calls go unanswered, emails are ignored, and tasks require constant reminders to be completed--if they ever get done at all. At the beginning, they talked a big game and made it seem like they were committed to helping our community. But as soon as they announced their departure, they essentially abandoned us. Our property manager, Patricia Bravo, has to be constantly reminded to complete even the most basic tasks, and even then, they either take forever or never follow through. We are still paying them for services, yet it feels like we're being ignored. The lack of professionalism and accountability is beyond frustrating, especially when our community still relies on them until their contract officially ends. They left us scrambling to pick up the pieces while still taking our money. To make matters worse, when they do respond, it's either with excuses or empty promises. Simple requests that should take a few minutes drag on for weeks with no resolution. Their failure to communicate and properly transition responsibilities has only added unnecessary stress to our HOA board and residents. Even the owner, Gustavo Terrones, has been no help in addressing these issues. I personally emailed him numerous times regarding the ongoing problems with his company and his manager, Patricia Bravo, and he never once responded. He simply did not care and could not be bothered to even acknowledge the concerns. Once you sign the contract, he washes his hands of everything and moves on. Now, even after they're gone, their mismanagement continues to affect us. A month after our contract expired, PMI still had not resolved a $3,600 reimbursement owed to our HOA. There was no clear explanation--just vague excuses--and now our new manager has to clean up the mess. On top of that, our HOA landscaper called me today and mentioned that he was never paid for several months of service while PMI was in charge. Frankly, I'm not surprised--Patricia Bravo seemed to have mentally checked out a long time ago. I had to apologize on behalf of the HOA and assure the landscaper that our new manager, Norma from Streamline Management, would settle our debt with him. This is yet another lingering problem left behind by PMI. Even after parting ways with them, their poor business practices continue to haunt us. I honestly wonder how many more surprises we'll uncover. PMI is turning out to be a mistake we regret deeply--too much big talk and empty promises, just to be let down hard. At this point, it looks like we may never recover the $3,600 they owe us unless we take legal action. We may have to sue them in court just to get our money back. If they're willing to do this to our community--and to me, the representative of our HOA, a Marine Corps combat veteran and retired law enforcement officer--imagine what they're willing to do to a regular civilian like you. They have no integrity, no accountability, and no respect for the people they are supposed to serve. Don't be fooled by their promises. PMI RGV may seem professional at first, but once they have your contract, you'll see their true colors. If you're considering them for HOA management, or any kind of property management--home, apartment, or otherwise--save yourself the headache and look elsewhere.
