Sarah Chingwena @Keller Williams Greenville UpstateReviews of kw.com

I called Keller Williams today in Istanbul, because I wanted to avoid to be cheated in the typical Turkish real estate market way. To think Keller Williams is more serious than any little cheap hustler in the Turkish basar was a big mistake. The conversation with that employee of Keller Williams was so unserious, that I couldn´t believe it. Of course she told me that the apartment that I wanted to rent was just rented the day before. Then she told me she has another apartment in the same house for 50% more money. Huhuhuh... what a cheap trick. Than she collected my data and promised to send an expose. She never sent anything, so Keller Williams just wants to steal your data. 1 hour after that phone call, I wanted to check if the "already rented" apartment was still listed on the website. And guess what I discovered.... they didn´t delete the listing, they just changed the price of the apartment from 4.000 to 5.500 Lira. What kind of company is that??????? In Germany we call that criminal, I don´t know how you call that in the U.S.A. . Avoid contact with this people if you don´t want to lose your money, time and nerves. Ah, and I forgot, if you want to protect your data. P.S.: Tomorrow I will make an appointment with that stupid woman that tried to cheat me, I ask her to show me the alternative apartment. I let her drive two hours through the traffic jams of Istanbul and stand her up. And then I ask several friends to do the same thing during the following weeks. Let her work a little bit .....

Très mauvaise expérience avec l'agence de Versailles, je déconseille vraiment, pas à l'écoute, ne donne pas l'impression de la compétence. Ils m'ont fait perdre plusieurs mois dans mes recherches. A éviter.

Don’t be fooled by this woman’s sweet demeanor and positive language. She is dishonest and CHEAP. Although I was the only one who could do what she asked for a reasonable price compared to others she has not paid for the services rendered that allowed her to sell her home. Darcy contracted me to fix her deck as the buyers inspection noted some problems. I gave a detailed quote (estimation) and squeezed her in as she was trying to close her real estate deal. The real estate deal closed BEFORE we started work and Darcy paid the new owner only the amount quoted. We did the work, sent the invoice, and Darcy was no where to be found. She wanted me to get the money out of the new owner. The new owner had not contracted us. Darcy has contracted us. The materials came in higher than expected and the new owner only paid us the quoted amount. Darcy has done nothing but push back and argue and make excuses. Her unprofessional behavior and lack of respect for me and my family in sticking us with her materials cost dumbfounds me. I’m now going to have to file in small claims court as she refuses to pay the additional amount which is less than $600... in a nearly 7 figure real estate deal this is inconsequential. For my one man company it means the difference of paying my bills or not.

They keep trying to show our apartment with zero notice. The agent recently started unlocking my door before I’d finished getting dressed! What an awful company and invasion of privacy! He didn’t even knock!

It’s sad that I have to write this review on someone I had previously considered a friend, when they say don’t do business with friends and family they mean it! Everything started off fine, pictures were taken and my house was listed for a fair price. Right now, with everything going on in the world houses are being bought and sold very quickly, this meant my house only needed to be shown on three separate days, very little work went into selling my home. My problems with Elise Vetri began with the fact that I was looking for a house outside of RI in either MA or CT, I preferred CT and Elise asked me to wait until she had her CT license and she could do both. I agreed, that was my first mistake. I looked online at Zillow and Reator.com for houses on my own, Elise did not set me up with an MLS listing so that available houses would come to my e-mail automatically. Every time I wanted to see a house she made sure to tell me how much of a pain it was to have to go, when I offered to simply attend on my own she stated it was illegal to look at houses without a realtor-it isn’t. There were several houses I liked that I didn’t even go see because of this, the last straw for me was a house that I wanted to see that was only being shown for one day and offers needed to be in by 5 PM. Elise complained about how it was unfair that other realtors would only show for a day, she advised she quote “did not have time” and sent another agent she works with to see it with me. The house was in CT which I preferred and a good fit for what I was looking for, I told the agent I was with I wanted to put in a bid (I had already made several for other houses that were rejected). She said she would let Elise know as even though she was showing me the house Elise wanted to write it up, it was submitted at 4:55 PM on a 5 PM deadline. I sent Elise a very nice and professional e-mail that night advising that though I appreciated her selling my house I was going to have a separate agent to help find me a house to buy since time was of the essence. Several times Elise had tried to convince me to close on my house, move in with family and then start looking for a house. An absolutely ridiculous suggestion, why would I pay to have my things in storage-pay movers several times and then move myself and my dog in with family? Once I sent the e-mail, which Elise didn’t even bother to respond to (not a text, e-mail or phone call) she only contacted me when SHE needed something. I then contacted Diane White of CR Premier Properties who was the agent on the last house I had seen, it was like night and day. Diane attended to my every need, the very first house I looked at with her that I loved she helped me secure my lender and put in a bid. This was all done “after hours”. We saw the house at 5PM, put in a bid by 7PM and had a yes by 9:45 PM the same day and without going over the asking price. I then still had the stressful task of closing on both houses, Elise advised the appraiser for my house was coming at 1PM and I needed to be out so they could take pictures-they showed up at 11AM and advised it was fine if I stayed (a five-minute process). The Fire Marshall came (a $30 charge I paid for) and advised my smoke detectors were too old and he would need to come back-Elise said they would be fine. My sister who lives across the street from me and is also moving used Robert Slocum located in Warwick and he not only put in the smoke detectors for her but also gave her a check for the $30. It doesn’t end there, when I mentioned to Elise my concern about how do I have my stuff gone from my house before I could move to the new house-she’s MIA. I had to google it and found out I didn’t have to be at the closing for the house I was selling and could give my attorney a POA to sign for me, while signing the documents with him he asks me about the commission price and I find out Elise charged me more that agreed upon. Unbelievable. I hope the 10K she made on the sale of my home was worth it to her. I highly recommend Robert Slocum of Warwick if you are moving to/in RI and Diane White of CR Premier Properties if you are moving to/in CT.

I would not even rate them with 1 star. They don't get back to even after leaving 4 different messages with their colleagues. I'm not wasting my time but they could be missing out on a potential buyer, this is an injustice to the vendors who are trusting them to get the best offer.

Perhaps the whole company isn't crap, but the realtor (Ryan Petticrew) AND the broker (J.D. Pierce) we dealt with were awful. This is what they did to my 78 year old widowed mother: They were dishonest and condescending. They both defended a seller that deliberately failed to disclose an ancient faulty patio roof. Isn't this what a legally binding disclosure report is for??It POURED onto all our stuff, only 3 days after we moved in!!! The broker even admitted to me over a phone call that it did look like the seller had most likely lied, but he still stood behind him. He asked if I could prove the roof previously leaked. I said that a licenced contractor inspected it, took photos, video, and pointed out years of stains from leaking. JD Pierce told me to "calm down" because this expert testimony would mean nothing in court! He asked me to "please drop it because his reputation and that of his realtor and company would be hurt." You would think he'd have realized that the best thing for a good reputation is to BE HONEST AND JUST. Stand behind truth and not a lying seller. The seller's realtor, Ryan Petticrew, was just as bad. He continuously ignored me, doing NOTHING to help resolve this issue. The seller got his $ and moved to a different state. The realtor & broker got their cuts and basically said f-u to my 78 year old mother. Beware of these 2 'men' and I use this term very lightly...no offence to other real men.

The local agent was very unhelpful in coventry and did not even get back to me When i requested a viewing on a property. Very disorganised and unhelpful
