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.

I went to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (Department of Homeland) to get my global entry…read moredone. For those of you who don't know much about global entry: when your coming from traveling aboard, the part where you get stuck with long lines in customs etc. In Miami airport, it's usually a nightmare. Those 1-2 hours I want back in my life because I hate lines and waiting. Well I'm glad they have this global entry section. Once you get global entry approved your also pre TSA approved. No more taking off shoes, belts etc. The cost of global entry process is $100 but your global entry card is valid for 5 years. You apply for it online and then you are set up with a in person interview. For the interview you need to take your drivers license and passport. They will ask you a few personal questions regarding your : travels, age, occupation, if you have been arrested etc. This interview was painless and took less than 10 minutes. They take your photo and finger printing. And send your card afterwards in about a week or so. I would recommend getting global entry done to all travelers who love to travel at least once a year. It's seems like the hassle free way of traveling. Safe travels.~

I was looking for a commercial real estate property manager to oversee 4 properties, which were an…read moreunusual combination of standard commercial real estate, an occupied 10 unit apartment building with frequently changing tenants ranging from excellent to difficult, a high value multi tenant property on an important, anchor street in Fort Lauderdale and a multi tenant warehouse. Virtually every type of property under the South Florida sun. I did not want a real estate agent or real estate service, I wanted a professional property manager. I researched a number of choices, including Berger Commercial; Mid Guard; CBRE; Grubb & Ellis; Colliers; and others but I was looking for one person not various specialists, who would care for my properties like they were the owner, and one name kept coming up, Fitzgerald Property Management and specifically Shelby Smith, the division manager. I hired them. We have been working together for some time now and I have been very happy with the service. In particular Shelby's deep ties to the area have saved me expenses because he knows EVERYBODY, attends city meetings, has a great network of repair and service referrers and everybody likes him so they work extra hard for me. I have so far received proper maintenance and fair pricing. Calls are returned immediately, and it's always clear that what they bring to the arrangement is knowledge and expertise, not a small thing when such a broad base of management is required. I waited to write this until I was certain they were as good as I was hoping they are but it's safe to say now that dealings with Fitzgerald Property Management and Shelby Smith will be managed with respect and no surprises.

I am an out-of-town investor from California with 5 properties in Miami Beach. They are small…read morecondominiums that I bought around 2015, and until early 2018 they have caused me nothing but trouble: I was trying to be cheap, and rather than having these units managed professionally, I asked a local friend to take care of renting out these units. That turned out to be a serious mistake. In one unit I ended up with renters who not only repeatedly failed to pay rent, but in addition also destroyed parts of the unit. That caused me significant losses, whereas the other units were barely profitable, mainly because of vacancy. I was not particularly excited about getting a management company involved, but since I had no plan B, and the neighbors recommended JMK a local Miami Beach management company, I thought I would give it a try. The highest priority was (a) to get my destroyed unit restored, and (b) to find decent tenants for the other 4. All of this needed to be done without me being directly involved (I live in California). The only constraints I provided were a budget and a timeline. This is how it went: JMK found the contractors, picked the materials, and had the unit restored. The work was completed a few days ahead of schedule. I never actually saw the work, but since the tenants that are currently in the unit appear to be happy, I assume that it was properly done. JMK was responsible for identifying these tenants. It looks like they know what they are doing: not only did the unit get rented out just a few days after the repair work was completed, but in addition JMK was able to get a rent that also covers the additional expenses for the professional management. In conclusion, this was a very positive experience. My units were finally a profitable investment, and in addition, I no longer have to be involved at all. That's what I was hoping for. Chances are that I will soon purchase a multifamily there since prices in Florida are much more affordable than here. I'll update the review, based on how that goes...

Now in 2012 they start to work on just two audits. (2010, 2011) We also find out, there is missing money in escrow account. Possible explanation; manager managed a very good relationship with our board president (investor - her family owned few units in our building).So nobody investigated why! Management address is a mailing address for our condominium. But!!! If you send a letter with questions there, they answered, you should contact some board member. (And board members answer, you should contact a management again) Management is a CMP professional, board members are not. So it is easy, especially if you have board president as a partner, to hire only YOUR contractors. Finally this manager violated F.S. conducting a board meeting with only 3 members present and even voting per phone at this meeting without loud speakers. Next to this, the manager is rude and sometimes he threat people, if they doesn't like his decision.
