1 starI am writing this review to express my extreme dissatisfaction with Southern Property Management Company and their executive assistant, ***************************. My experience with this management company has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I feel compelled to share my unfortunate encounter.First, I have encountered numerous issues with ******************************* inability to perform basic tasks. Despite providing proof of payment for my HOA fees, she failed to update my HOA account balance accurately. It is astonishing that someone in her position cannot read or count properly, leading to unnecessary disputes in resolving payment-related matters. This lack of accountability and transparency is highly unprofessional and only exacerbates the frustration and inconvenience experienced by homeowners.Another significant problem I have encountered with this management company is their reliance on a third-party website to obtain necessary documents. This reliance has caused significant delays in the sale of my property, as the website frequently experiences technical issues and fails to provide the required documentation promptly. This inefficiency and lack of contingency planning on the part of the management company have further hindered my ability to sell my property in a timely manner.My experience with this company and their executive assistant, ***************************, has been nothing short of a disaster. Their incompetence, lack of attention to detail, and failure to provide timely and accurate information have caused unnecessary stress and delays in the sale of my property. I strongly advise against engaging with this management company if you value professionalism, efficiency, and effective communication.I hope that by sharing my experience, others will be spared from the frustrations and setbacks I have endured. It is my sincere hope that SPM takes this feedback seriously and makes the necessary improvements to provide a better experience for their clients in the future.Review fromRhonda C

This community has lost several sales due to the Property Mgmt sending incomplete paperwork, refusing to answer all questions, and paperwork does not match P&L. Homeowners in this community cannot sell their properties unless a cash buyer. There have been 5 contracts terminate (within 45 days) and each lender sites the mgmt company due to questionnaire not being complete. They cannot show where they have a 10% reserve balance, they answer certain questions with "as of now", and their employees are rude and uncooperative. Extremely unprofessional and are disrupting homeowners and buyers lives by not cooperating with lenders trying to close a property. I HAD to choose at least one star or my word would not get out to the public. If I had my choice it would be -5 stars!

The management company sends only the requested information form any bank trying to process a loan. All ******* are verified by the board each month when they are sent for review.The fact that the *** cannot budget for 10% reserves is not a management problem. The board of the community prepares and approves the budget. This loan we answered over 125 emails that all included the board of the community. The seller at one point left the management company out of the emails and emailed directly with the board only. The management company has nothing to do with selling of homes other than filling out paperwork. All of the issues here are with the lender the buyer choose.Review fromKC C

Southern Vermont Property Management (*****************) **************************. This is the most unprofessional business due to their lack of concern for the tenant's when a tenant has a complaint ***************** try's to turn it on you and blames you for the complaint.He is a very disrespectful person and does not do the job he is getting paid for. I have known other property management company's and they actually come to the building and walk around the building every month, ask tenant's if there is anything that needs to be addressed. I have been in one of the buildings *** manages and he has not been here in 10 months. It is my opinion that he is just after the money without having to do anything for it.Southern Property Management

Southern Property Management deserves absolutely no stars. This company is a nightmare to deal with, the staff is not knowledgeable or professional. With every interaction I have had with the company, there has been a smart remark or your bothering me type attitude. I have received numerous fines, for things the *** should actually be covering/repairing (window screens, damage to siding, garage door dents). All issues that were visible prior to my purchasing my home. SPM blocks/monitors any interactions with the ***** of ********** SPM makes it extremely difficult to access documentation needed by insurance/financial intuitions. I honestly have never dealt with such ***************.Southern Property Management

Southern Property Management always does its best to remain friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating with every homeowner in the neighborhoods we manage. According to the covenants of this community, the Homeowner is responsible for all doors and windows and applicable trim. This includes garage doors and screens. This homeowner has not received a violation notice for siding issues as that is an HOA responsibility. Southern Property Management is the point of contact for the ************** emails are forwarded to the Board for review. We always let the homeowner know where to find any insurance information they may require.Review fromAA P

Worst company to deal with!!! We submitted our fence approval OVER 45 days ago. Per our HOA covenants, after 45 days we no longer need approval. I advise the person Id been speaking with that wed be moving forward. She gave me a VERY snarky reply. Stating someone needed to view our property. We waited a week. No one showed. She then tells us said person had a death in the **************** else would be out at a later date. No further communication. Said person was to come today, no one showed. Every time I mention something theres an excuse. My husband called & she never returned his call. This is ridiculous. Extremely rude staff. Why do we have to submit things for approval if they are not abiding by their own rules. Such a joke!Southern Property Management

It has been a constant struggle for my family, since Southern Property Management has taken over our neighborhood. We have a board recording in which our *** board proudly states that the owner of ******* Property Management company said she "will do anything for her board except go to jail". This was immediately concerning to me. I have received violations that were never mailed and upon asking for the violation to be mailed I was informed it could not be resent because it would cost the board, received second violation notices when I never even received the first, violations for trees planted two years ago before Southern Property Management even took over, and was told I needed to treat my grass with chemicals and provide the management company with proof that I treat my yard, despite our covenants not requiring chemicals. A neighbor inquired about seeing the contract between ******* Property Management and the *** board and were told that the contract contained proprietary information because in the past homeowners attempted to recreate management companies using Southern Property Managements contract. Frustrating to say the least. The portal that is utilized by Southern Property Management is not user friendly and allows for gray areas when trying to understand the violations.Southern Property Management

These issues are with the *** Board, not Southern Property Management. Southern Property Management is just the Agent for the *** Board. Southern Property Management cannot make any final decisions, add fines, send ************ without the Board's request/approval. This homeowner currently has an attorney and therefore should not be posting online reviews as this is an ongoing legal issue with the ***.Review fromYENI T

This property was purchased at a foreclosure sale, so the investor did not do any due diligence on the property before the purchase. Had they done so, they would have understood and fees and requirements of the *** before the sale. This home was an investment. This person is an investor. They closed without Inquiries to the *** or management company regarding any fees necessary to be paid in order to clear the property. This investor was charged the same as any homeowner in the community. We worked with the investor to get the proper information for the deck build, and were unsuccessful due to the investor failing to supply the required information/documents as they were instructed. The request was then denied on 2/22/23 when we could not get the proper information from the investor. Our contract terminated with this *** shortly thereafter and we heard nothing between the denial date and the termination date. Therefore it was the responsibility of the Board to let them know about and approved or denied improvements to the property. Also, the person should not use derogatory words about another person as they have. We regard this as discriminatory and prejudicial.
