My husband Tom and I have worked with Sean and his associates in the past selling some of our…read moreproperties and were pleased with the results. So, when we decided to purchase a second home in Newport Beach, we thought they would be a good choice. We found a home we wanted to see, and Sean sent one of his agents whom we had not met yet to do the showing. That's when we met Ryan Tarr. That first house wasn't for us, but Ryan was dedicated to finding us the perfect home within our budget. We weren't exactly sure where on the peninsula we wanted to be, so he helped us narrow down our search by spending a day with us driving through it and pointing out the advantages and disadvantages of all the different areas. Once we decided on an area, he was on it! It seemed like he never slept and treated us like we were his only clients. He worked hard showing us many properties. We don't live in the area, and he often went to new listings and walked the property while we were on facetime so we could decide if we wanted to fly down to get a real look. A couple months in of looking and unaccepted offers it seemed like nothing was coming on the market and we were feeling a bit discouraged. Then I got a text message from Ryan with a picture of a stack of addressed envelopes. He was mailing all the owners in the area of our interest! (see attached photo) A few weeks later there was a response to his letter, then more houses started coming on the market. He went above and beyond, and I believe got things stirred up in the market. Even though it took us 6 months to find what we were looking for; the wait was worth it as I am confident, we found the perfect family vacation home that will be in our family for years to come. As an extra bonus our family has a new friend and go to real estate agent in Ryan.

He was able to negotiate a great price along with everything throughout the process for us. His easygoing and calm personality made him easy to work with and we always felt he was on our side the whole way through. He guided us through the process and answered all of our questions and was always available to help with questions. He was never pushy and made us feel very comfortable through the process. He asked us questions and cared about following through with them. If you are looking to get top dollar for your house especially in The Summerlane community in Huntington Beach look no further! He also did a great job following through with the other agent and communicating back and forth throughout the process. Selling a house can be complicated but David really made the process as easy as possible! We highly recommend David! Thank you again!

On multiple occasions, potential buyers were left waiting outside because she failed to show up only to later find out she was sleeping instead of doing her job! She is rude, unresponsive and a pathological liar who does not take her responsibilities seriously. If I hadn't fired her and switched to a more competent agent my property would likely still be sitting on the market. In this competitive real estate market I should have received top dollar but instead I was left dealing with he consequences of her negligence. I am truly shocked that this company continues to employ her. If you care about your time, money and peace of mind stay far away from MIMI Roca!

Dealt with Jennifer Shaw on a unit for sale in Sea Pine Newport Beach…read more AVOID AT ALL COSTS She was rude, entitled, arrogant and generally off putting. I am writing this as a successful Caucasian woman who felt uncomfortable and can only imagine if I was more diverse or if I would have even been able to view the unit. This agent is training her daughter who is so sweet and sincere but I hope she see that there is no service delivery or trust created when your behave in the way Jennifer Shaw did - it's antiquated and it's very Karen like to wield her race as a weapon. There was no value add for her as an agent. My agent and I noticed 7 years of deferred exterior maintenance for which there is an HOA and she responded curtly. Most of the actual facts about the property were unknown by her as the selling agent. For example, did not know which hvac system belonged to the unit, unaware of basic working items like dryer vent. Her understanding of her job is to look pretty and talk down to clients similar to the old car salesman that would be so condescending that the client would overpay to prove a point. She was also very interested in if the potential was there for her to bookend both ends of the transaction and make a double commission. Shady! Lastly she is not transparent or forthcoming in communication as she knew our max price and due to a recent situation where another "Bay Area" person wrote 10 offers and then came to see them all and only purchased 1 she forced me to fly down to meet her to consider my offer and waste $880 on Labor Day weekend flight and more on travel expenses only to counter my offer at and absurd amount. Her daughter still has a fighting chance to remain human. Good luck to her.

I've been a tenant in one of AllView's properties for around three years, and the property managers…read moreand landlords, Mark & Andy, and Michelle & Marshall, have been wonderful. Their response times to maintenance requests and overall customer service have always been excellent. After several stable years, we recently experienced a number of condo issues following the rainy season. Every issue was handled compassionately and as promptly as possible. After submitting multiple maintenance requests (right before the end of business hours), we were contacted the same day and again the following day to schedule repairs. Since then, they've arranged for construction workers to repair a leak in the staircase ceiling, ant control services, a termite inspection for worn wood in our garage, and are currently scheduling the replacement of an outdated dishwasher with a brand-new one. Not only that, but every contractor they've sent for repairs in our condo have been very considerate and professional. When working on our roof, the crew explained the whole process beforehand, sealed off our entire staircase, and answered questions even on their breaks (not to mention they were understanding and warm towards my very confused ESA dog). The ant/pest control worker shared he's personally sprayed the landlord's home in the past, which gave me great peace of mind knowing that AllView only hires people they trust to work on the properties they themselves habituate. The termite inspection was quick and efficient. I appreciated the worker's professionalism as I noticed he immediately covered his shoes with plastic before entering to avoid tracking in mud or chemicals, which was thorough and kind of him. The two property managers who have stood out most during my time here, Andy and Mark, have always maintained clear and consistent communication regarding concerns, scheduling, and next steps, especially now as we move forward with termite treatment in the garage and the dishwasher replacement. I'd also like to add for any prospective renters: although our unit is under rent control, the landlords have always chosen minimal increases rather than the maximum allowed at lease renewal. In other words, these are genuinely good people. If you respect and take care of their property, they will absolutely take care of you.

This is not for WORKING PROFESSIONALS!! You will be…read moremiserable in their properties. NOT SAFE, NOT PROFESSIONAL, AND NOT WORTH THE RISK I truly tried everything to resolve the issues I experienced with this property, but the management company refused to take responsibility for extremely serious safety problems. From the first day, my apartment had plumbing issues and a strong odor. I emailed repeatedly, but no one ever came to inspect. eventually contacted the gas company, and they found an active gas leak coming from the stove--a stove owned and maintained by the complex. I had been unknowingly exposed for weeks. The storage area directly beneath my anartmant apartment was packed floor-to-ceiling with hazardous chemicals, paint buckets, clutter, and materials, which only worsened the smell. Even with photos and written complaints, management did nothing. (Attached pictures) Despite the uninhabitable conditions and their negligence, they kept my deposit and even sent me to collections. I filed a BBB complaint and attempted to work out a solution multiple times, but they refused to act responsibly. I'm now considering small claims court for personal injury related to the prolonged gas exposure. I also want the property owners, Linda and James Reitch, to know how poorly their management company is representing and maintaining their property. I will be forwarding all documentation to their Trustee through proper channels. To make matters worse, the application process was extremely intrusive. I have a high credit score and a stable job, yet they demanded a very high deposit AND required third-party access to my bank account. With such strict requirements before move-in, l expected much better safety, maintenance, and professionalism afterward. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend living in any property managed by this company" Daniel, I am responding with documented facts and dates. I moved in the first week of August. From the start, the bathtub had issues that worsened quickly and became unusable. I submitted a formal work order on August 30, only weeks after moving in. On September 13, I emailed and submitted a work order reporting persistent fumes/odors in the unit. No one was sent to inspect. After continued inaction, I contacted SoCalGas myself on September 25 because the odor persisted. They confirmed and repaired an active gas leak from the stove, which is owned and maintained by the property. While it was fixed the same day once SoCalGas was involved, this occurred only because I escalated it after management failed to respond. Had I not done so, I would have continued to be exposed. I was also charged for a bathroom screen that was missing at move-in. I have the original email and ticket number requesting installation. The ticket was closed without the screen ever being installed, yet your BBB response incorrectly states I owed for it. I raised safety concerns about the garage beneath my unit being used for non-residential purposes. After reporting this, tenants were informed of my complaint, which led to hostility and caused me to feel unsafe. I did not leave "simply to break a lease." I vacated due to unresolved habitability and safety issues after repeated attempts to resolve them in good faith. All of this is documented through emails, work orders, third-party findings, and video evidence. I stand by my review.
