Jim Neal Sun Realty

I don’t like giving anyone a bad review, however this I feel is justified. While Jim was very polite on the phone and has legitimate experience in the industry… his practices for getting new listings are in my opinion unethical. I received a letter from Jim saying «We’d like to buy your home». He mentioned working with investors and hedge funds who are looking to acquire property in the SW Florida market. After letting him into my home to assess my property and run comps, he then replied days later with an informal proposal stating what he’d like to list my property for. He had no investors, no hedge fund looking to buy my property. This was just a sales tactic that I’m sure he’s done to hundreds of others in order to get his name out there and acquire listings. I gave him another chance after receiving this letter, giving him the opportunity to bring me an offer from one of his «investors». However after that conversation I never received a reply from Jim, and have not heard from him since I said I wasn’t interested in listing my property with Sun Realty. It’s unfortunate because this is a very poor way of doing business. I was initially skeptical but found no bad reviews as far as Jim or Sun Realty was concerned… which is why I ultimately entertained the initial conversation. Now when people receive the same letter I did they will at least have a place where they can get some valid information about how he does business.
