Avalon is considered a good neighborhood in Orlando. Though this assumption is generally true,…read moreavoid at all costs taking a property run by Avalon Management. Rude and discourteous service are the norm. After having our application approved, we submitted photos of issues that required immediate correction. Within the hour they did a 180 and stated 'this won't be a good fit'. FYI, as a client you should never feel forced to accept a property with issues. The axiom the client is always right is not the way Avalon does business. I feel sorry for the owner of the house. He has trusted folks with his property that are not taking good care of it and worse, turning away qualified clients. We took our money and thanked God that they were not ours landlords.

I've been using Avalon Management for going into my second year now. Overall I'm impressed by the…read morelevel of professionalism and response from the entire staff. I was looking to find tenants for my home when my wife and I were moving out of state for a new job. The property management staff promptly made an appointment to come by, do a tour of the property and take pictures. The person who came (John I think) came by and went over the terms of the management agreement. I decided to take advantage of the full package where they would find the tenants and manage all aspects of repair for the property. This seemed like the easiest for me as I wanted to be as hands off as possible with the management of the tenants. Their fee is pretty straightforward and their organization of documents and owner statements helps keep my life easier come tax time. It's easy to set up a direct deposit and the payments are collected and deposited in a timely manner. They will even agree to take and manage HOA payments by deducting them from the rent paid. When an issue comes up like a repair is required, or a homeowner's association notice is issued, they are quick to email and eventually follow up with a phone call. I've only had one "issue" with them. They received a homeowners association notice that my walls were dirty and needed to be repainted. Avalon Management quickly took note of this and got a quote for a new paint job. The quote came back pretty pricey. Instead I asked them to get a quote for a power wash and have the HOA reevaluate if the painting still needed to be done. Turns out, that's all it took was a nice power wash of the wall. Overall I'm pleased with Avalon Management and have even recommended them to a couple of my friends.

I will not be able to recommend this management company to anyone in the future…read more I engaged Peggy for tenant placement services based on a referral from my agent, who assisted me in purchasing my first investment property in Orlando, as I reside out of state. My unit remained vacant for three months without a tenant or any discernible progress. My calls went unanswered, and I had to repeatedly contact her via text messages, to which she would typically respond two days later. When I brought my concerns to upper management, she attempted to rectify the situation, but unfortunately, it was beyond repair. Ultimately, I had to terminate the agreement. I then engaged a management company that proved to be exceptionally proactive and communicative. They successfully identified a new tenant within a week, and the tenant moved in the following week. It is truly regrettable to operate and work in such circumstances when one cannot conduct business professionally. I have unfortunately expended my time and resources by placing my trust in a central Florida management company that proved to be untrustworthy.

From the owner: Pretty simple really:…read more When it comes to renting or buying your next castle, we change things around just a little bit... We have a team of well taken care of, dedicated & courteous licensed professionals ready to help you - but who also understand that your time is valuable and real estate searching can sometimes be a drag. We take any possibility of "meh" out of the experience by already having the best-of-best inventories based on your budget. We visit properties and communities constantly. We talk to onsite sales staff every single day. We update this very website all the time - and not with tons of listings off MLS - you can get that anywhere - we update with curated suggestions based on our regular experiences with communities, their staff, and the satisfaction of clients who've moved-in and LOVE it. 2 things to note: We meet with clients by appointment only - usually at a coffee place - and we buy!! Our service is almost always 100% free. Aside from corporate-style relocation consulting, you don't need to bring even a buck to your appointment - like we said, we even buy the drinks.

As an investor living in Texas, I wanted to find a property management company I could trust. I…read moredid a lot of research and narrowed down my search to a few different companies to call. Jason answered all of my questions about The Realty Medics and their services and we decided to work with them. Once we signed the agreement I dealt with Emi and she was extremely friendly and helpful with getting our property setup in their systems. Once the property was listed they quickly found a qualified tenant and I was assigned my account manager, Eva. Eva is fantastic at communicating with me the few times there were issues with the property. She also conducted a market analysis when it was time for the tenants to renew their lease. My experience with The Realty Medics has really given me comfort knowing my investment property is taken care of well and that my husband and I do not need to worry about this aspect of our retirement plan. I would recommend The Realty Medics to anyone who is searching for a professional property management company to take care of their investment. Debbie Kofler Kaufman, TX

Both are headed up by Steve Simpson, but I will focus my discussion on my realtor, Peggy, whom was fantastic throughout the process of selling my rental property. Offering a wealth of knowledge and skill, she did a fantastic job of diligently working with me to explain every step of the way, without being overbearing or pressuring me. She advised me on the best time to sell my property, kept me apprised of the costs throughout the process (effectively my biggest concern), discarded offers that were unreasonably low and not worth my time, and persistent for a good 3 months before we finally found a buyer at a price point that hit about 90% of my criteria. Thanks to 407 and Peggy's hard work, we were able to be alleviated of the credit burden an unwanted investment property brings and we left the sale with enough money to put towards a home that's just for us! I would strongly recommend them if you are either in the market for a highly competent property manager or a seller's agent.

They will absolutely make you feel like their only client despite all of their other listings. Phil Kolbrich will be a tireless advocate for you and your property. I encountered Phil one evening when he was going door to door promoting one of his listings. He wasn't pushy or intrusive, but friendly and conversational. I enjoyed meeting him. Over the next few months, I noticed he was out quite a bit walking the neighborhood. We chatted a few time's randomly, as I walked my dogs and we crossed paths. He was always pleasant, knowledgeable about the market, and his enthusiasm was contagious. When it came time to sell our home, my wife and I invited Phil to come over to hear what Top Orlando Homes had to offer. Their presentation was great! It was professional and to the point. What we liked most about Phil and Gisele was their realistic approach to pricing. They did not tell us what we wanted to hear just to get our business. We had a frank discussion comparing our home to what was currently available and what we should expect. It was a good no nonsense meeting. Phil and Gisele were able to answer all of our questions. Once we signed on with Top Orlando Homes, Phil and his team marketed our home aggressively. Our home was on all of the top sites, and it was one of the top viewed homes for days. We scheduled an open house, but we had offers days before it took place. There were multiple offers at asking and over listing price. Our home was under contract before we could blink. That's all it took. We were thrilled! Phil Kolbrich and Top Orlando Homes were great. We could not have asked for more or had an easier experience selling our home. If you want the best for yourself while selling your home, you should talk to Phil Kolbrich at Top Orlando homes.
