Watch out! Complaints about Paradise Property realtor! If you do a little research you will find that agent Dewitt Ingram, an agent on the Paradise Properties of Florida website, does not have a credible or professional reputation. I lived in his apartment at the Montecito Condominium in West Palm Beach. Once I started asking around you won't BELIEVE the things I heard! It made my stomach drop. I can tell you first hand how I was mistreated but more than that he has entered my apartment without written consent or sign posted on the door on more than one occasion! There were times I was taking a nap and awoke to him in my apartment changing an air filter, which is not an emergency repair. Imagine as a woman living alone how scary that is! Then I found out I wasn't alone...that other women had come forward...but nothing was ever done. I called Paradise Properties but they refused to look into it, even after I told them I heard of other complaints even from employees and other female tenants! Since Mr. Ingram and all the realtors own their own properties...they said it wasn't their concern. However, if you go on their website looking for a realtor...you will find Mr. Ingram as an option. I was told by those close to the building and the tenants that the past tenants who reported the inappropriate behavior and mistreatment were usually young, naïve, and didn't have a lot of money or education about their rights. I wish I knew this ahead of time before I leased his apartment at The Montecito Condominium in West Palm Beach but now I have heard of more complaints from employees of buildings and other female tenants! I was a woman who lived alone and was very uncomfortable. I can tell you first hand that Dewitt Ingram, the agent under Paradise Properties came into my home several times without written consent, a posted sign on the door, or sticking to a specific agreed upon time. I was told before I even moved out that he has a reputation for finding unethical and excessive ways to take security deposits. I was also told he has entered women's apartments without written consent before. I was told a woman complained that he took pictures of her apartment while she lived there. There are numerous examples during my lease where Mr. Ingram was unprofessional and maliciously exploited me as a tenant to keep most of my security deposit. Normal wear and tear does not mean you should lose part or most of your deposit. However, my apartment was left spotless. Just because someone owns your apartment doesn't mea you have no rights! Know your rights! Ask around. And do not use this realtor! Ask the actual employees in your building you rent in...they will tell you the truth! Just ask quietly... ;) read more

I hired this company to manage my house in Marin while my family and I relocated after a tragedy. After only a year with extremely difficult tenants that they vetted, I returned to the vacated house that I had put so much love, blood, sweat and tears into making beautiful, to see it dilapidated, unkempt and extremely filthy...ruined! Paradise properties allowed the tenants to vacate without doing a walk-through. The tenants had also stolen a brand new washer I purchased for the house at their request (one of many requests I granted to them during their short time there), along with other items including a bed. Paradise did everything they could to pacify the tenants at MY very costly expense, NEVER taking any kind of financial responsibility for their lack of looking after the property and doing everything to push court proceedings away. What did I pay them 10% of the rent monthly for? CLEARLY the owner IS NOT the client Paradise is interested in helping. They will take your money though, no problem. This has been a HORRIBLE experience and seems to have no end as they now have taken thousands of dollars from myself, and the new tenants without doing anything they promised. I'm sickened by the entire experience and am reviewing this company in hopes that people in my situation do not get taken advantage of like I have. This was the LAST thing my family needed in our efforts to start over. And lastly I'll share what was written to me during the process of trying to straighten things out after the theft of the first tenants by of the owner of Paradise Prop., Reza Najafi, "it's time to move on and put this behind you." How dare this person suggest to me to move on. Be warned, this company is known in Marin as "SLUMLORDS." I found this out a bit too late. read more

I can't give any stars to this place or the people. We have been discriminated against by Natasha because we are sec 8 recipients, she said" you should move because you are sec 8 and the other tenant isn't" allowed the other tenants to threaten, harrass, and bully my family and my son. With all the evidence videos, emails, neighbor witnesses over 15, she still allowed the lower tenant to dictate to her and we were forced to move from our home and community. She neglected us as tenants, our safety and our sanity. She still continues to email me harassing me and doesn't understand the true definition of work. I work 2 jobs, my husband is disabled and she still continues to harrass us. I would steer clear from this discriminate, neglectful and harassing slumlord. read more

Dennis and I met when I was looking for my very first house in 1989. As it turns out, I did not actually purchase the house through him since I found a FSBO that I fell in love with (and could afford). Even though he received no financial gain, Dennis helped me through the process. We have been great friends ever since. I have bought and sold several properties since then using the team at Paradise to assist. Dennis and Natasha are exceptional. They get the job done quickly and efficiently and consistently show that they care. I recently sold my house and needed to quickly find a rental. Again, Paradise came through right away and found a fabulous house for me. I cannot say enough about the firm and its amazing staff. read more

Purchased property through them.. We found the place.. They didn't. Felt we had to use some Realtor at the time and later learned from the terrible experience - strongly dislike these people. Later... Lease property from them. Complained about them renting business property to a company which eventually shut down due to arrests due to illegal sex related crimes. They let the business continue, and it took our involvement to get the police to shut it down. We eventually shut our business down and ended up paying a significant amount back to them from our initial deposit. Honestly will never suggest anyone use their services. We make huge mistakes by ever doing business with them read more

I have worked with the Reza, Natasha & Dennis at Paradise Properties for about 3 years now after knowing them about ten. They are amazing!! They have helped me find properties and tenants in my rental properties. To say they go above & beyond is an understatement. Any time something goes wrong with one of my rentals they are always there to help me. I have learned alot from them & they are VERY patient. They are very knowledgeable about marin county real estate markets & have found me some great deals. They have become great friends as well as very good business partners. I would not dream of doing a transaction without them. read more

Natasha from Paradise Properties has taken care of my Tiburon house for the past 12 years (wow- sounds like half a century) while I was busy being an expat wife all over the world. Although I am pretty sure she takes care of quite a few properties, her approach is so personal, flexible and hands on, that I always feel she only works for me ! Over the years, our house went through a number of renovations, improvements etc, and she has always chosen the best path, communicating constantly, and always to trying to make it easy on me - financially and practically. TOTALLY recommending Paradise Properties, could not do it without them ! read more

My partner and I utilized the services of Paradise Propertiesfor a period of five years in the management of an apartment building we owned in Sausalito. We found the service to be far superior to previous real estate management firms we used. I have also used Natasha and Dennis to assist me in the purchase of a second home in San Rafael, CA., and in addition to their good help, Dennis managed to save me an 17,000 off the purchase price. Natasha's father, Rezo, is also an additional source of excellent information. A family business and I highly recomment it . John Lannom read more

If you value results, expert skills throughout the property management process, communication virtually 24/7, high integrity and dealing with happy friendly people, you will choose Paradise Property as your management team. Their family team is remarkable. As I did my research to select a property manager, I was told by a number of their past and present clients that "you won't even know you own the property"! And it is true! the only reminder I get is when the check shows up each month. read more

I've been working with Paradise Properties for a few years and I couldn't be happier. It's a family run personable business with unbelievable service .

I have personally worked with Paradise Properties for probably 10-15 years and have always found them to be extremely helpful, very professional, and willing to give 100%.

We love Dennis and Natasha! They helped us purchase an income property and we felt they fought for our best interest until the final paper was signed. They were patient and positive during the long process. They know what they're doing and held our hand the entire way. We will continue to recommend them to friends. read more

Dennis Morrow of Paradise Properties is the most professional property manager I have ever met. I live in one of the properties that he manages, for ten years. In all that time, whenever I had any problems, Dennis was there with a solution. He was easy to reach, and seemed eager to help. Keep up the good work! read more
