This firm is the worst in St. Pete. My wife and I put an offer on a home at full asking price plus $1,000 over any other offer. They took an offer from buyers from their own firm. When that deal fell through they called us and said we were the #2 offer so now it was our if we wanted it. We said yes we wantee it and proceeded on the realtors words. Scheduled inspection, appraisal, etc. Meanwhile, they proceeded to accept another offer. Then had the audacity to come to us wanting $6,000 more dollars to get the home. Ignoring the concersation from that same morning. Once again, the new offer represented by an agent in this same firm. We agreed despite feeling it was unfair. Finally the deal crashed after learning they did not disclose known home problems including a broken pool heater at $3,000. But the final straw was when they demanded we allow the seller to live in the home for two months rent free. Beware! These people hold back information until you commit money to the deal. I am now out money for the appraisal and hours of wasted time and emotion. I learned too late that this is their reputation.

I just received a called from them asking me if I would put my house on the market with them. They had my cell phone number which is not public record and I have never had any kind of business or personal relationship with this company. I will be reporting this. The National Association of Realtors states that Realtors cannot call people who are on the Do Not Call registry to entice them to sell their properties or buy a home. They also must not call the phone numbers of people with expired listings, if the person is on the Do Not Call registry and the Realtor has not had a prior relationship with this person There are a few exemptions to the Do Not Call rules for telemarketers and Realtors. The National Association of Realtors states that Realtors may call consumers that they have had an existing business relationship with, such as previous clients. Realtors may also call anyone on the Do Not Call list if they have obtained prior written permission to cal

This company is full of people who only take multi-millionaires seriously - so if you are one of them then feel free to deal with a bunch of people faking being your friend. I was trying to rent a home they had listed and got no service what-so-ever except thaty they gladly took the deposit check when I drove there to deliver it. Ironically they did not know what to do with it as I later discovered, but they still took it. Once I moved in I found that thier care of the home was nonexistant in the year it was on the market. 75% of the bulbs were burnt out and plumbing had been leaking in a few areas for months (busted pipes, leaky toilets etc). When I move out I hope the owner never deals with them again - the only reason I closed on the deal was becasue I enlisted the help of another realtor from another company!

We could not have asked for a better real estate agent than Rick Miller! Not only did he go above and beyond to find us what we were looking for, but he is a genuinely nice, caring person. We hit a few bumps in our search and he walked us through each thing. He helped us narrow down neighborhoods, work through what we wanted from a home, and did so with honesty and patience. Rick answered every question, walked us through every step, and referred us to the very best inspectors in the industry. He never pressured us, always was available to talk, and went above and beyond in every way possible. I would not only recommend Rick, I would urge anyone looking for a house in the Tampa area to use his services. Thank you, Rick.

As a first time home-buyer, I was somewhat nervous about the process. Our agent with Smith & Associates, Isabel Caruso, was amazing. She made sure we fully understood the whole process and was constantly giving us updates along the way. She was also great at looking out for our best interest while looking at properties and when we were ready to make an offer, she helped us negotiate a great deal! We also used their in house Mortgage Team for our financing, and had just as great an experience with them. I would recommend Isabel to anyone looking for a Agent to represent them. Steve and Amanda are also a great team to work with for financing.

I was in contact with one of their agents last night. I was interested in viewing a home for rent, and my colleagues and I are in a bit of a time crunch due to our lease expiring at the end of the month. We made an appointment at 9:00 am. When I arrived, there was another interested party there, to which I lated found out from the realtor that they had already submitted an application last night for the house and were taking the home. She withheld that information and dragged me out to the property as an insurance policy to cover herself and make sure the home was rented. NO MORALS or ETHICS

What a terrible closing experience with their title company and closing and beyond. After "Angi" the closing agent missed our appointment then made me drive to her office. She was ill prepared for the closing. She made me come back a week later to get my documents and not all were including. Now after refinancing with a different title company I cannot get the information they left out with out being charged. The staff is unresponsive and has yet to follow up. I would recommend any company but this one for closing.

My wife went through buying the terrible process of buying a house from Smith and Associates, in particular Pam Stine. I feel that they have very dishonorable business practices. I lost a lot of money before eventually walking away from a deal with them. Save yourself the trouble, buy and sell elsewhere.

5502 N Seminole, Tampa, Fl appraised at $189,000. In her listing Pam Stine is not disclosing potential huge valuation discrepancies and has it listed at $265,000. Beware.

Great Short Sale Experience. I have dealt with many title companies as a real estate broker. Smith and Associates Title is by the far the best title company I have dealt with in terms of response time and professionalism. Angi and her staff have gone above and beyond the call of duty on many occasions. If you are looking for fast and professional service, look no further. Smith and Associates Title is my first choice.

I have worked with multiple Realtors in this office, and they have always shown the highest level of professionalism and accountability. Scott Wolfe is one Realtor, in particular, who has really gone above and beyond in the level of his services. There are few realtors that I have ever met who know their market like Scott does. I would highly recommend Scott to anyone seeking a home in the South Tampa market.

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Mary Lou Gordon at Smith & Associates while selling our condo in this past summer. Mary Lou is an extremely driven and qualified realtor who went the extra mile in order to ensure we had a positive experience. My husband and I will gladly recommend her to any of our friends and family looking to sell in the area.

We wanted to share our experience with dealing with Marissa sutell . she was very involved and cared about assisting her clients,it was clear from the start that she was professional and truly cared about her clients. All in all i would recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted and caring realtor today!

Smith & Associates and their on-site mortgage team made our home buying dreams come true! The morning after we saw the home we loved, they had us in for a showing and a contract on it as soon as we said go. Our family is forever grateful for this team!

Smith & Associates have professional, experienced salespeople. They are dedicated and knowledgeable. Theirs is a chosen career in which they work to excel. They were always willing to discuss my concerns, big or little. They were out to make me happy.

We used Mark Paris and we were terribly dissappointed. He blatantly lied to us and was highly unprofessional. ..his attitude was very cocky and rude. We will never use or recommend this company to anyone. ..Mark Paris was the worst

Mary Kelly is a superb realtor. She is professional and truly concerned about her clients. She also knows how to price a home at a fair price to both buyer and seller. I would highly recommend her to anyone (and I already have!)

Our realtor was great. We only had two short visits from out of state to find a home in St. Pete, with a toddler in tow! She made sure we found a place that we would love. Ask for Isabel if you are in St. Pete!

Grant Patterson made our dreams come true and did so while working for Smith and Associates. Sterling/Grant were great partners and Grant Patterson found us the home we have been looking for!
