    Disgusting overflowing trash for 6 weeks

    We moved into 960 Jefferson as a brand new property which was such a great find on south beach however we have lived here for two months now and can confirm the management is the worst we've ever encountered. Our dumpster still hasn't been emptied not even once (trash overflowing, bugs, rodents) We've placed multiple maintenance requests for things that were broken upon move in and now two months later are still waiting for someone to come There is never anyone to answer the phone at their office on 71st despite having called and left numerous messages They have wonderful real estate agents who sell you on a great idea with zero management to back it up. Had I known how incapable the management was for these apartments I would have never moved in.

    This is one of the shady cops that's being paid off. The whole precinct is being paid off by Urban Resource even the chief!

    This Company still has not returned my security deposit when I actually fixed their unit up better than when I arrived. The people worked with Miami Beach police and the Local Courts as well as local attorneys by paying them off to make things go in their favor! They have also harassed me and followed me to my new home area and are currently stalking me and trying to hurt me! This company is CORRUPT and the pay off CORRUPT COPS AND OTHER GOVT. officials to get things to go their way! Please know, that your rent is not paying for your home or the up keep. But to simply pay off corrupt law officials with your money to keep antagonizing the community! They do not help tenants at all. They get you moved in to suck you dry and not do those part in keeping up these units. They take your money to harass and bully you later with it! These people are evil and have destroyed many lives in Miami! PLEASE PLEASE if you read this get an out of state attorney that can practice in Florida to take these evil criminals to court. Be mindful they pay people to commit their crimes. Staff included! They even pay people to write nice reviews for them so they can stay in business! These are the biggest crooks I've ever known of in real estate and they will do ANYTHING to WIN and to stay on TOP even if that includes paying people off to take your Life!!!!! The day that these monsters are taking down will be the day Miami Beach will return back to its glorious community! If you ask me why Miami Beach is soo bad now, I'll say this place has much to do with it! The negative evil energy that they spread throughout the community damaging and hurting so many families. Just look up the BBB reviews and ratings. These people are heartless with what they do! And I'm not going to Stop speaking and sharing this until I receive my JUSTICE in full! And you guys can keep your fake apology! Save it! I pray to GOD he shuts this evil company DOWN!!!!!! You guys are a threat to the Miami Beach Community and all of its residents.

    $85 for a nail left after he said "dont worry about that" all recorded on video

    DO NOT RENT FROM THESE SCAM ARTIST!!!! Victor did a walk through (have it all on video) stated nothing wrong was with the unit and ill get my security deposit back. i moved out and they charged me $500 in "damages" which included $55 for 2 water bottles left. $85 for nail left in the wall $85 for a led strip/remote left behind. $250 for trash that was left from another building. No proof at all that it was mine. taking me them to court! Jesus (property manager) will not return your phone calls even after leaving multiple messages till you bring up sueing them. Also my rent went from $1400-$2300 for a 1/1 these people will scam you! will be making a youtube video for my 75,000 followers showing everything!

    This is how they left wiring at the apartment 2 weeks ago...

    Urban Resource only cares about money and don't pay attention to service issues in the units. Electric wiring in the building where I live on Euclid Avenue and 9th street on South Beach is old and there is always issues with the power and the Internet because of that. I had to ask them to repair the wiring almost every month. It takes a long to get them to come over in spite of promises that they will come. I'm forced to work from home due to Covid, but it's impossible even to charge the phone - because outlets are not working and I've been waiting for the electricians for two-three weeks. Those issues made the life in the unit uncomfortable. Nothing has changed since I contacted them October 25 by mail and on the resident site. Today is November 7... And the comment from the company below sounds weird because means nothing in my case

    $3,392.69 in property damage, not including the extra money I forked out to move my valuables into a storage unit.

    What a joke lol these reviews are so fake. Scroll down passed the fake fronts on top. They Airbnb unrented units out making me and my neighbors paranoid... why? Because 3 of us have had break-ins, property damage, insect problems... the list goes on and on and on and on. Daniel takes zero accountability in twisting the exact problems I had as if I was the one to Airbnb my unit out? What a joke. Everyone knows you and your company are crooks. Your google reviews and BBB rating etc are proof along with most every single review here. I rest my case. How come you haven't addressed the mold issues Daniel? What about the poor plumbing and caved in floors? The insect problem? Still thinking of ways to twist those issues on me and everyone else too? Ha! Daniel and the team are NOT sorry and are COMPLETE LIARS! Note* This happened ON THE PROPERTY! Management did NOT DISCLOSE to me or any of the other residents during the time of lease sign that they Airbnb unused units out. I believe this is illegal. This is where the problem is. The fact that there are random people coming and going left us all in a vulnerable situation. The building has no cameras and is completely unsecured. This is aside from the huge German roach problem, mold issues, caved in floors due to poor plumbing. This building is for sale for a reason. It should just be condemned. Nice try Daniel. You will be sued, and the so-called "long term residents" you speak of are all taking action. You forget it's a small 20 unit building and we all know each other. I also ran into Mark, the owner of the building who showed concern and compassion for what happened to me. He specifically told me to mention that I spoke to him about getting out of my lease without penalty, but clearly you guys are a greedy, shady mismanaged company. See attached photos of how they make up their own numbers. They claim I gave them $2,650 in security deposit when clearly you can see for yourself that I in fact gave them $3,975. How they come up with me owing them money for two holes in the wall? LMAO! What a complete joke this company is. SLUMLORDS! I can't wait until they get slapped with the law suit coming their way.

Therefore, I knew I needed a property management company to handle those unique set of challenges in my absence. I had researched many properties management companies online in the Fort Lauderdale area. I happened to come across Icon Realty Management and Brokerage. After reading the great reviews and my conversation with Ben and finally meeting him at the property. I decided to have them manage my property.

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.

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...

They will email everyone in the building the most USELESS stuff that has NOTHING to do with your floor or unit. It's a real shame, from owners I spoke to, they really miss the previous management company that was getting stuff done, clearly these guys don't care by hiring useless employees that walk around, follow you around and literally it feels like harassment. If you don't believe me, please go ahead and read the reviews on google about this "The Residences on Hollywood Beach" This company should be ashamed of the people that they hire and due to those cheap hires, building maintenance not going well. Yes you have a couple of nice people, but the majority make it horrible. When you own here, and want to rent out your place, good luck - as soon as prospective tenants call to submit all information, the people are so rude on the phone, saying how "we have 700 units, you are just 1 renter" Can't wait for my lease to be OVER and not have to look at these useless management company fakes again!

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 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.
