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 highly recommend Ben from Icon Management for anyone looking for a Management and Brokerage firm. DM Celebration, FL

I waited 30 Days to post this review to give Benjamin the benefit of the doubt, to give him a…read morechance to prove his word as a property management company but here is the proof that he is a SCAM artist. 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.

Her pricing and marketing strategy was spot-on and resulted in a full-ask offer within just three weeks of going live-during the beginning of the holiday season, no less. They hosted two open houses, coordinated numerous private showings, and executed a thoughtful marketing plan that truly worked. Patty's guidance throughout the process, from preparing the home and taking photos all the way through closing, was invaluable. Patty and Chris were both extremely supportive every step of the way and made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and organized. Selling a home after 20 years of raising kids and making memories is an emotional rollercoaster, and they handled everything with care, patience, and empathy. Even after closing, they checked in on me as I relocated and recommended a moving company they've used in the past, which turned out to be a fantastic recommendation. Patty and Chris work beautifully as a team, and I truly could not imagine going through this experience with anyone else. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier, luxury-level service and genuine people who truly care about their clients.

After two dishonest property managers who swindled us, we hired another who seemed eager and honest, but unfortunately, unbeknownst to us at the time, had many personal and health problems that prevented her from fulfilling her duties. When VIP took over, the property was in shambles. Even before I signed the contract, Giles Pottinger immediately rode over to inspect it, and reported the plethora of problems that existed which, being long distance property owners, we were not made aware of. The next few months would have been one hundred times more stressful had Mr. Pottinger and Ms. Stamm (here after referred to as Giles and Saskia) not taken over and, personally watched over each repair, each renovation, and responded to every tenant issue. When COVID hit and we were unable to finish the renovations to the property, Giles found an investor to take the property off our hands, making sure our interests were protected, providing much needed guidance and support. Furthermore, Giles and Saskia's personal warmth and humor, a much-welcomed bonus to their unparalleled professionalism and expertise, created a harmonious relationship that went beyond business. I have never left a five star review of any business , but I do so now enthusiastically and without reservation.

Unlike any Real Estate company I have worked with in the past, VIP Property Management was readily available before, during and even after our move. As a parent to a 6-year-old moving from a different school district, I had a ton of questions going into the search for the perfect home for our little family. No matter how big or small my concern, Mr. Pottinger was always available to offer guidance and explanations whether via email, text message or by phone to listen and strategize. Mr. Pottinger and his team have proven themselves to flawlessly oversee all matters on our behalf and were patiently willing to alter our game plan in our negotiation process, no questions asked. I felt my opinions and ideas were heard and valued! The team's fast response was truly refreshing and made every dealing I had with each team member of VIP enjoyable. Patiently showing us properties throughout Broward County, Mr. Pottinger ended up negotiating an excellent deal in the school district that I had originally chosen for our daughter. During the walk-through of the property, Mr. Pottinger diligently recorded any issues that required repairing and ensured that all matters were corrected immediately. In addition, I was offered the services of an excellent cleaning crew to deep clean the home prior to the arrival of the moving company, making the move-in process a truly smooth (clean) and carefree event. Looking back at my whole experience, I was most highly impressed with this company's ability to eagerly provide one-on-one services that always ensured I felt I was a priority. The individualized attention I received from Mr. Pottinger and his team made our moving experience the least stressful of any moves I have made at any point in the past. I appreciated Mr. Pottingers' wisdom and his frank answers to my questions along the way and I continue to feel the highest level of satisfaction for him and his team! Thank you to Mr. Pottinger & everyone at VIP Property Management! Not only do they get the job done, they are incredibly fun and awesome to work with too! I highly recommend this company for anyone in need of an excellent, versatile company to handle any and all real estate and property related matters. THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!!

Nick was an amazing realtor and we would use him again without hesitation. Professional,…read moretrustworthy, and super responsive and attentive to his client's needs. We reached out to him back in March 2022 when I was stationed in NM. The timing of our move back to FL and our hesitation as our first-time buyers led us to rent an apartment once we got back in October 2022. But shortly after we signed the lease we found out my wife was pregnant and we quickly realized we didn't want to be in an apartment with a baby on the way. So we started looking seriously and Nick went from 0 to 100 right along with us. Trevor was at most of our showings, but Trevor is equally awesome! We probably looked at ~15 houses, maybe double that if you count all the random open houses we went to every weekend and texted him about. We'd love a house, not care for it the next day. Think we could handle a fixer upper, realize we definitely couldn't. Fall in love with something way over our budget and take a break from looking all together. Despite how many times we went hot and cold because of the market, Nick was always super patient with us, and we NEVER felt pressured about anything. When we finally found "the one" the process was so smooth it almost seemed too easy. Like they really gave us the keys to a house?! Haha that's nuts. But it's just proof that his 100% drama free mantra is absolutely true. As a South Florida native too, something else I really appreciated about Nick was how evident it was that he has roots and connections here. Every other party we needed to work with throughout the home buying process he recommended was amazing, from the home inspector to our mortgage lender. After closing, we had some minor hiccups and Nick's still been there for us. We're so excited to settle into the perfect first home for our growing family.
