Okay so I usually avoid paying for services I don't need, and I thought I could get away with "for…read morerent by owner" style renting through CL and other boards. I was trying to rent out my semi-luxury Vancouver condo but finding a good tenant turned out to be very hard. 5 Star tenants are not nearly as plentiful as tire-kickers who just waste your time. After losing two months rent I decided to try a professional property management firm. I had a business card from Orca Realty - Michael - from when I was renting a unit in the Wall Center.. so I gave him a call to see if they could help. Michael and Petr were awesome, and cool guys! They helped me to create a list of similar homes with the same statistics, and break down the similarities between them and mine. We looked over all the details such as amenities, parking, storage, neighborhood. As my condo is in downtown Vancouver, I can get decent rent . Another benefit of using Orca was they already had a large pool of AAA renters to look over, they get a lot of LUXURY houses in West Vancouver, so they know a lot of high profile renters etc. Long story short I signed over my condo to them and BOOM in 1 month they had it rented for me, with the extra parking spot. I travel a lot, so they can deal with tenant issues for me. Yeah it costs more, but it's worth it and these guys will go the extra mile for you.

Orca was horrible to deal with. Communication was extremely sparse, and getting a phone call from…read morethe real estate agent managing the property was impossible.

My wife was communicating through one of their agents Tasha Panico to schedule a viewing for a home they were managing. They had agreed to show us the place on 6 PM on a Wednesday (6 days ago). Tasha had asked to move the date earlier to Monday at 6 PM but my wife was working a late shift at the hospital and didn't have a chance to reply to her email until the following day where my wife confirmed 6 PM would be okay (Tuesday). Tasha explained she was busy that Tuesday and left it at that in the reply email. We of course assumed the viewing would go ahead for Wednesday at 6 PM and my wife emailed back apologizing about not getting back sooner and emailed back to confirm again 6 PM on Wednesday. She did not get a reply back but we did not think much of it at the time. We got to the viewing early on the Wednesday, sent one more email and also text messaged her that we were there, still no reply. We phoned her once at 6 PM but still no answer and then waited around and still nothing. Unfortunately we never got another answer from Tasha explaining what happened even though there was never any indication to us that plans had changed. The unit was subsequently rented so our interpretation is that she felt there was no point in showing us the rental however a simple message telling us so would've sufficed and would have saved us the time involved in making our way down to the viewing and waiting around. Again I hope this is a one off or there were extenuating circumstances but I feel that as a professional organization, communication is very important, and we felt there was a communication breakdown dealing with Tasha, who had been a good communicator up until that point.

It is the worst property management company. The realtor Philip Danyluk is rude, irresponsible and…read moregreedy. We gave him two rental houses to manage, the followings are what happened: 1. One house was totally damaged by the tenant and Philip said that he had absolutely ZERO responsibility for that. My question to him is how often did you check the house? The house can' t be damaged over night. No response because he can say nothing. 2. The tenant run away and didn't pay the rent. Again Philip said it's not his responsibility. My question to you, Philip Danyluk, what is your responsibility for the all management fees we paid each month?

They are impossible to get ahold of if something goes wrong in your suit. It takes weeks to months to have issues fixed. They do not fund the onsite handyman properly, making it difficult for him to do his job. The previous management people were fantastic, held tenants to a high standard, and rapidly addressed any issues. It's been sad and frustrating to now deal with team 3000 and the obvious fact that they simply want to collect our rent, and do not care to actually manage the property and tenants of which they are in charge.
