We are renting a perfect home on Big Pine Key. Well almost perfect. The beds are infested with…read morebed bugs! We let the agent know by leaving a message and e-mail and hour ago, so we'll see how they deal with it. For now, 11/13/11, we'll start with one star and upgrade depending on how they deal with the problem. My wife is covered in rash like bites and I have a sample of a half dozen bed bugs I'll be taking into the office today! 11/16 UPDATE Here's my update for the way Schwartz Property Management handled the problem. The agent arrived called back within a couple hours on Sunday morning and arrived mid-day for a horrified visit. She had set up a pest control visit the next day and brought an air mattress out for us to sleep on in the living room, so add one star! Things did not go so well after that losing them two stars. However, alls well that ends well, and thanks to the involvement of the owners of Schwartz Realty we were moved next door to a bug free environment, earning them three stars back. It turns out bed bugs (actually a form of lice) are popping up all over the keys, like most other places on the planet. I think the folks at Schwartz are still figuring out how to deal with this, but after a few fumbles, we are now in a lice free home and happy. It was a bumpy experience for me the consumer but hopefully we can bump them up to 5 stars next year.

Our family planned 12 months in advance for a 50th wedding anniversary trip to the keys for 14 to…read morecelebrate my parents anniversary. While they were happy to accept the deposit in July for the following June's trip, we received an email stating that the owners of the house decided to rent the property to someone else and we would be getting the deposit back in February of the following year, 3.5 months from the vacation. The email said they were sorry, but no effort was put into finding our family a suitable solution. We spent our weekend scrambling to find alternate arrangements while this realty company looked at us as if it was just one rental and since the replacement was longer, no big deal. Completely unprofessional way to handle cancelling a contract from months prior. No reason why anyone should trust that their contracts are worth anything other than fire starter as they really don't seem to have a concern for what others plan and their role in that process. We have worked with another firm now, who was happy to confirm in writing that they would only cancel for natural disaster or property disaster, not to rent for more money to someone else.

'Customer service personified' - the very definition of Stephanie and Greg's realty team…read more I am a long-time real estate investor and I have found in Stephanie and Greg customer advocacy, real estate acumen and local knowledge exceeding any other realtor in the area. They truly care about your experience. They want you to be happy. They are laser-focused on your satisfaction. I found their awareness of the Florida Keys region quintessential. And best yet, if they didn't know the answer to a question, they were Sherlockian in locating it even if it meant hunting down some local historian, running through the chain of everyone in local government or going back through real estate records and transactions. They are unrelentless in getting you the most accurate information and data possible to make well-thought-out decisions. And they are great listeners and wonderful sounding boards for you to talk through your visions for what you want in a deal, an investment, a rental property, or a personal home. I also really love their podcast; it is fun and insightful! They interview, chat, and share all kinds of interesting and entertaining information, resources, and trivia. The podcast is called "Living in Key West", I'd suggest checking it out! It will really offer you a fantastic culture taste of the region. So, whether you are buying or selling Stephanie and Greg are on your side. I highly recommend you choosing them! They're your team and, believe me, they have your back.
