Since we decided to begin the selling process of our house, our Real State Agent Evelyn made sure all ends were covered. She was always there to guide us and assist with any concerns. Her professionalism is excellent. Will definitely recommend Evelyn and her staff.

I truly wish I could leave negative stars. My 78 year old grandmother is renting from them, and there is visible mold in her apartment. They acknowledged the mold but are refusing to have a licensed mold inspector per lease to come identify, and are refusing any treatment plan and security deposit.

We are very happy with Era Advantage Realty. Through this agency I found the best Realtor there is. If you look to buy or sell a property look no further. Realtor Ryan Steck is truly the best. He cares to provide the best service for his clients, very detailed oriented, quick answering any questions, very efficient, professional, knowledgeable and he goes the extra mile with his duties. I highly recommend realtor Ryan Steck. Hes truly the best realtor I have ever met!

Enjoyed renting with ERA for the last 5 years. Whenever I had a question or issue Diane and Lisa were always right there to assist. Kristen and Bill THANK YOU so much for working with us while our dream home was being built, while we had numerous delays but you guys were always so helpful in working with the owner, getting us permission to stay until we finally closed. God Bless each and everyone of you !

ERA went above and beyond. I would highly recommend ERA as a management company to manage a property, as well as, a company to sell a property. Cheryl Culpan did a fantastic job listing and selling my property.

If I could put no stars I would. Been renting through ERA for a very long time and they are terrible with getting things fixed along with wanting to constantly harass you. We’ve had issues after issues with the house we are in and nothing ever gets fixed even if we report it. Such as AC going out and other major issues. And I can go on and on and on about everything wrong with this company. You sign a lease for a year and they want to do everything they can to try and get you out of the house even if you pay rent on time every single month.Never will I willingly rent through ERA again. They’re money hungry and don’t actually care about you and highly unprofessional too. Renters I highly suggest renting through someone else. Save your money and go elsewhere.

The Rental Department maintenance coordinator Diane is the Best. She is professional, courteous, responsive. I will list all my rentals with ERA... Simply The Best In Town !

It was pleasant Experience I will use you guys again in the future.

We inherited property that needed to be sold as soon as possible because it had a reverse mortgage on it. Carmelina (Millie) responded very quickly and handled everything from removing unwanted items, cleaning, repairing, and hiring services for us since we lived nearly 1,000 miles away. We found a buyer within a month, and she stayed in close contact and walked us through our closing process. It was the easiest real estate process I have ever been through. We found her to be so wonderful and by far the best agent we have ever worked with. Her experience, attention to detail, and a great working relationship with sellers make her one of the best real estate agents in Florida to hire!

Cheryl was spot on, helpful and totally professional. She was creative in the way she resolved the issue of posting the open house sign which yielded fruit.

As one who has been both the renter and home owner working with ERA I can say I would recommend them. Professional, accessible and reliable.

We used Brady & Jessica Sammis to help us purchase two lots in North Port. We are very pleased with the professional and friendly service they provided.

Rented for 10yrs, and will never use era again! Its pretty bad when you have to call home owner to get anything done without a hassle!

Cheryl Culpan was amazing, so helpful, responsive and very engaging. She was able to answer all of our questions and put together a great purchase package for us.

My agent was professional, knowledgeable, forthright and sold my home in a timely manner. Very pleased with the service I received!

Evelyn Walinchus from ERA Advantage Realty did an excellent job of finding me a home that fit all my needs. She went above and beyond my expectations to make sure the transaction and move from out of state went smooth.

Ana is a great professional willing to help at all times I highly recommend her

Rich did a great job and was attentive and efficient. Pleasure to work with and answered all our questions professionally.

Steve Kidwell was very professional and responsive, despite difficulty amongst my family’s dynamics. He maintained communication; and was able to keep the situation under control, through the sale of our full of memories parents’ home. On the day of closing; he physically helped with a last minute situation and saw that to completion, averting a last minute derailment! Highly recommend Steve, and ERA Advantage! Very good experience! Next, I hope to find a condo!Thanks.

My realtor, Tim, did an excellent job. Some issues came up during the process of completing the sale, but he was on top of it all and made it run as smoothly as possible.

My husband and I used ERA for two years to manage our rental property. They were great! Our tenants ended up leaving a month early and they did everything to help us get the property ready to sell in a timely manner, working close with our realtor. We couldn’t have asked for a better property management company. They went above and beyond. Bill, Diane, and Caroline are great!

Renters beware they rip you off and there handyman is a peeping tom

ERA Advantage Realty has been managing my property since 2014. They have done a great job in communicating between the renter and me. Issues have been handled quickly and thoroughly reducing possible stressful moments. Working with ERA Advantage Realty has made renting my property seem effortless.Will work with ERA for future real state needs.

The folks in this office are great. Ive dealt with them on 5 condo units on the west coast of Florida for more than a decade. I live in NYC. One of them gave me her home cell # & had her husband do an errand for me. Many times they call me with tenant issues & will not spend my $ until I verified that the workers have given us the best price possible. They have a list of really good workers for anything that goes wrong in an apt. I highly recommend them !

Rented from them for years, what a terrible experience... Glad its over

Staff are awesome people to work with. They handle eveything with professionalism and follow up on details. Very organized. I am very blessed for the day I signed up this team!! Eliminates the worries. Cannot say enough positives. Thank you to all the awesome staff at ERA!😊😊

ERA is a great real estate company. I live in Connecticut and have used ERA to manage multiple single-family properties I own in Northport Florida for over 10 years. Bill and Diane are the best! They take so much stress out of being an out-of-state property owner and make it down right easy. They pride themselves on their professionalism and quick and honest communication with me and the tenants. They respond quickly to tenant needs and have a great source of maintenance contractors who are readily available, reliable, and reasonably priced. I have and continue to recommend ERA. I respect and enjoyed working with the ERA team. Keep up the good work.

A beautiful home and the property managers were very professional over the phone. Unfortunately i was told they “don’t take cosigners” and “don’t do roomates” or combine income. So if you’re looking to move in with a friend or family member, too bad. Two people can’t sign a lease together. Unless you’re married and/or make well over what minimum wage pays in the state of Florida, good luck. Very disappointed.

I cant say enough about ERA Advantage, they have been my management company for years, they go above & beyond for all your needs, so nice not to worry about my rentals. All the girls are great in the office, Bill is awesome getting me the right tenants and rent. highly recommended

This was a very difficult prperty to sell. Steve did a great job. Thank you

Dedicated and very professionalThank you cheryl

We have been using ERA, for over 6 years now to manage our rental homes!Bill and his Team are pretty awesome, always going far beyond what any other property management company have . (Bill especially ). He takes care of our properties as if they were his own as well as our Renters, staying on top of it and taking care of anything and everything that needs attention!Great company !Annette Thompson (Johnson)

They will try to do everything to take your rent deposit

Service beyond our expectations. Bill Russell and Diane were always very quick to reply and act on whatever was necessary. Very professional and knowledgeable team. Thank you for your great service during these past 5 1/2 years. 10 on 10. Thank you all. Lise and Remi

ERA has been handling our rental property for several years now. We have found them responsive, communicative, and generally good to work with. We also find their fees reasonable, well worth the work they do for us. We plan to continue to use their services.

The best realtor ever. Paul went above and beyond what most realtors do. Since we bought from out of state he kept us informed every step of the way even looking at houses for us. Very easy to work with.

We were very pleased with our ERA Advantage Realtor, Carmelina Corris (Milli), during our recent sales experience. We did a long distance sale, which concerned me at first, but Milli walked us through the entire procedure from start to finish. She was patient with all of my questions and had answers and solutions for all of our concerns. I truly considered her a miracle worker with all of the solutions she came up with that made both the Buyer and us happy so that the sale was a success!

I have used ERA for 8 years to lease multiple properties. I have always found them to be professional and responsive. Bill, Diane, and Caroline are my go to people and they work hard to be fair and honest for everybody. This is a hard business to manage with multiple pitfalls for the unwary and ERA makes it seem easy.

We have been working with Bill Russell for ten years. Bill has helped us rent our house in Port Charlotte several times. In addition, since we live on the East Coast of Florida, he has gone above and beyond to help us out if we had any issues. After a hurricane, he was kind enough to go by and check out our property and report back damage. I would recommend Bill and Era Realty (we originally purchased the house from ERA).

Bill Russell has put together a great team of agents. As a landlord, I appreciate the hard work is hates to find good tenants . They are thorough,professional and courteous .I have been with them for 5 years now and all my tenants are trouble free and a perfect fit for my business plan.I would recommend them to any prospective tenant/landlord looking for their expertise to help find a new rental opportunity

Hi this is Jeff Malucci I have a used your advantage since I had a problem with my old real estate agent my house was destroyed and I had to hire them to come help me fix it and with the help of her bill Russell was able to put it back to renting state so that I could rent again. They did a great job and I’d recommend them to anyone.

My husband and I have been very satisfied with the services ERA Property Management Company has provided to us for almost 10 years in renting our property. Our overall experience with the team was good and professional. They were tentative to our questions and concerns including giving us good references on contractors to use when needed.Thank you for all your help and we wish you great success in the New Year.Yvonne & Craig

Fantastic company and a wonderful rental staff. Handles all questions and concerns with care and respect, while keeping properties rented with little vacancy.Experienced and courteous staff that are easy to deal with and very good at what they do.

I trust my property to ERA Advantage. Great people, and they go the extra mile. Bill Russell, Diane, and the entire staff at ERA have earned my respect, and my continued business.Brian

Our realtor Steve Kidwell has always helped us out no matter what time of day, Being out of state, He has made it possible and easier for a smooth closing. We recommend his services very highly.

Great property management team here! They found wonderful tenants. The staff were helpful and quick and responsive to any issues with our property. We are selling our house now and it is in BETTER shape than when I turned in over to ERA to manage five years ago !

I have been using ERA since 2011 and have been very pleased with the results. Whenever there is a problem with my property, its always taken care of quickly. Communication is great.

On a recent visit to ERA I was greeted immediately and felt very welcome. The staff was courteous and ready to assist me right away. They are very knowledgeable about the area, and their professionalism and services are top notch. Thank you for a great experience!

Always very professional and cordial in person to person meetings. Reliable maintenance was provided for our rental when needed. All in all was a pleasurable relationship with this company, especially Bill Russell. Looking forward to renting from them again!

Cheryl Culpin from ERA is one of the best real estate Agents in SW Florida! Cheryl has genuine concern for her clients and gets an A+ in all areas of the home buying and selling process. Cheryl is confident, puts forth a 100% effort and gets results! I would definitely recommend Cheryl and ERA to my family and friends.

Always helpful. Diane is awesome! Great rentals.

ERA Advantage Realty has been wonderful to us! The owners and all their employees are very nice,dedicated, handle everything right away and are right on top of things! My parents are renting a place through them, the whole process went really smooth and easy, and they both are extremely happy with the place they are living in and everyone from ERA!! Would recommend anyone I know to them!

If there was an option to give a negative score, thats what this joke of a realty company would get. After completing the whole process, giving them money for all the fees not including the cost of moving from out of state I now have to evacuate due to an h.o.a that the realtor FAILED to mention. So now Im homeless and jobless due to THEIR mistake. You would think that they would have some kind of solution or any sort of idea to remedy this situation besides calling to ask if Ive moved out not even hours after learning this information. This was my situation that I hope doesnt happen to anyone else that might not be as fortunate as me. Luckily I still have a residence that I can go to....hours away. The pit bull is a specially trained ESA which I turned in the paper work as well on the same day as I signed the lease and the only ones confrontational were the HOA so I dont know where you got that from

My family and I have rented from ERA for the past 8 months or so. They are fantastic. The home was clean and the staff has been very easy to work with.

Cant believe what dirt bags these guys are . YOU WILL NOT GET YOUR DEPOSIT BACK EVEN IF THE PLACE IS SPOTLESS. EVEN MORE IMPORTANT YOU WILL GET CHARGED FOR STUFF THAT IS ALREADY BROKE WHEN YOUOVE IN.AND YOU WILL NEVER FIND ME IN YOUR SLUM LORD DATA BASE. YOU NEVER HERD OF FRIENDS?

I called and inquired about property management and talked to Bill.He looked at my property and and educated me on what I needed to do to get this house in shape to rent. Great advise, straight forward and Affordable. I look forward to working with them.

This house was spotless when she moved out..blinds were damaged when she moved in and there were no valances on any of the windows. Her dog did not have any fleas upon moving but yard was infested and she constantly had to comb and bathe him. She moved in with me and her dog doesnt have a one flea on him. It is absurd what she is being charged out of her deposit!

Era Advantage Realty are nice and respectable group of hard working people to work for you the best way they can. Thank you all.

Absolutely the Best!

They have managed my property for years. Never had a problem. I would highly recommend.

ERA is fantastic, courteous and professional. I always have a pleasant experience with them. Tom is great!

ERA handles 2 rental properties for my husband and myself. We are very pleased with how they look after our properties and the professional manner in which they facilitate any communication between the tenants and ourselves.

I highly recommend ERA Advantage Realty. Very easy to work with, and they show genuine concern for their clients.

I have been working for about 2 years with Bill Russell to manage a property I have in Port Charlotte, and he is by far the best property manager I ever worked with! He knows the area, and gives outstanding advice and guidance regarding pricing the property correctly, desirable repairs that will generate the best return, and even choosing the right vendors to perform the best work at the right price... I would recommend Bill and ERA in a NY minute! My experience as a landlord in Pt Charlotte would not even be close to the pleasure it is if it wasnt for Bill.Paul CisottoLong Island - NY

We recently rented a property from Theresa and the whole experience was great! She was always available to answer our questions and was very knowledgeable. She really worked hard for us and helped us a lot. I wouldnt go anywhere else! Thank You Theresa!

We have been renting our home since February 2013 through ERA Property Management and good not be more happy. Whether dealing with Bill or Diane who handles the renters property concerns with great follow up, we could not be more pleased in our dealings with ERA.It is true we are blessed with wonderful homeowners, but the property management side of the equation has enhanced our experience. We referred a friend and one of the largest area professional painters to ERA for their rental homes and they have been well pleased. In fact, after building a new home in the NP area, they listed and sold their old home through ERA. Trust is important when doing business with an entity and we have a great deal of trust with our ERA office.If you are a prospective rental dont get fooled by negative renter comments when on their website. Please understand a renter signs an extensive contract with a lot of dos and donts as well as having an annual inspection that leads to a forfeiture of some or all of your security deposit if you break the rules of maintaining your home and trashing it before leaving. Treat your rental home as if you were the homeowner and you are proud of your home. Remember that there are penalities beyond losing some or all of your security deposit where your credit is concerned for future home rentals or purchases. Be smart.I can as a long term renter heartily endorse ERA Property Management. LaMar Herndon

This is the very first business that has screwed me out of my security deposit. Me being a past rental agent myself. I actually know what and how to get my deposit back. These people actually royally screwed me out of my deposit and charged me for things that were already like that before I ever moved in. I will never recommend this realty company to anyone!! They charged me 444.00 for two small sets of vertical blinds. That were that way When I moved in. A few of them dont turn with the rest! 444.00 what a joke. I also put in 100.00 indoor outdoor carpet on the lanai and a 30.00 solar spot light out back and left it. Not any charges for cleaning because it was spotless. But charged me for every cotton picking thing else that they could! Never ever will I recommend this rip off outfit! Be prepared to be ripped off!!! And Im taking them to court unless this is rectified. I will post updates!!!!!! Those blinds were missing those parts when i moved in. And I have witness to that.

ERA Advantage Realty, Inc. is an excellent real estate company in Southwest Florida, which provide full services in residential, commercial sales and property management. Highly recommended to our relatives and friends …

I worked with Holly for a year. She was absolutely great-from getting me into the house quickly since I was in a time crunch, to getting the repairs done, to getting my deposit back. I would definitely rent from Holly again!

Very pleased with the skills of our agentHe had excellent knowledge of our market and provided us with guidance through out the process.

My wife and I have been renting out our condo in Punta Gorda for the past 2 years. Being in the property management business myself in the north east, I appreciate the personal attention we have received from Bill Russell. Bill is a real pro and always made short order of getting things done for us. He has always been available for our phone calls and always quick to respond. We would not hesitate to recommend Bill and the services he has provided.

I wouldn’t even give them a 1 star if I didn’t have to. When I moved out I made sure the lawn was mowed and weed whacked the day before I left yet they charged me $100 for landscaping. House was cleaned thoroughly yet $240 for cleaning. Then they through the price of $1075 for damages without giving any explanation to what the damages were. They do what ever they can to consume your whole security deposit. The house I was in had unfunctionable shutters and now they’re gone so that’s what they’re trying to pay for. Small claims court here I go

ERA Advantage is a great company with many helpful and highly skilled real estate agents.

This by far is the best team of Property Management professionals I have worked with.Thank you for going above and beyond! Melissa W.

Very friendly staff. I would recommend others here

I received the most utmost unprofessional experience by T.H.. I would never recommend buying or purchasing from this location!

We are in a renewed lease for a 2nd year for a properly in Englewood managed by ERA. I have to feedback from the owners perspective.The service has been more than fair and responsive, with AC calls same day, and all issues addressed.The staff is fine; no issues.

Weve been renting for over a year and have had a very positive experience. Today, (Saturday) we came home from shopping at 3pm and found our a/c was not working. By 6 pm, ERA had a tech from Four Seasons Air Conditioning at our home and the problem was fixed by 7 pm. Couldnt ask for better service. Thanks, Josh, for making it happen!

We have been dealing with ERA for over four years now and Bill Russell and his team are first rate and a real pleasure to work with! We live 1500 + miles from Punta Gorda however we sleep well at night knowing that Bill and his team really work hard to find great tenants who truly take care of our properties like their own.

They are unprofessional and liars. I do not recommend it to anyone because they rob the money from the deposit to the clients inventing excuses not real.CAROLINE is a shameless and a garbage.

From a tenants perspective: Poor follow-up when calling about issues at the rental. Tried to charge me for leaving the rental dirty when I moved out. HOWEVER; the owners were local and went to the residence when I vacated, BEFORE ERA went there. They fought on my behalf and I did get my full deposit back. Bottom line, be careful, ERA is sketchy.

In my case I went to rent they were very good and kind and when I decided to move they were rude and lack of professionalism and liars and lack of ethics. even being a good client and I never made my late payments. I was also imbued with excuses and lies so as not to return the security deposit. (They literally steal the money from their customers) and (CAROLINE) is the bad and rude of all.The reason I broke my lease was because I bought a new property and I talked to CAROLINE about how I was going to move and she told me that the only thing they were going to discount was the last month and everything else was returned to me. and I cleaned up that property and took care of it as if it were mine and nobody went with me to walk the house to check it so that now they are charging me $ 110 for cleaning when I know it is a lie and charging me 100 dollars for a small window in the door Someone broke to enter the house when I was not in it and for that you have insurance and charging me 500 dollars to rent the hause They are abusers. I am in the process of buying two new houses and I spoke with some of you but im not going to do busineswith you.you lie to the tenants

Nice people. Just didnt use them.

Only retain their services if you want poor communication, and loss of revenue. This company cost me more than $6,000 in lost rental income. Unprofessional is an understatement.

Brady was terrific

I rate this company less than 1 star. I am currently renting from ERA Port Charlotte. This is our second year with them and if it wasnt for not being able to find another house at the time of our lease being up we would not be renting from them anymore. This year when our lease is up for renewal I refuse to resign with them I will take my family to my parents house and stay there if we are not able to find another house right away. They have the worst customer service I have ever seen and Caroline has been nothing but rude and nasty to us and accusing us of damaging the house when actually the house looks 10 times better then when we moved in. we have used our own money to improve the house when we have requested for things to be done and got no response from ERA. when we moved in the house was trashed and we had to go behind their cleaning company and reclean the whole house . If we put in a service call no matter what it being it takes days for any kind of response and it takes us calling multiple times to get anywhere with them. i will never refer anyone to them they are the absolute worst company to rent from!

Always on top of things. Tereza is the nicest, when above and beyond to her her

I have been using ERA for 6 years to manage my two rental homes and have no issues with the service provided. I am looking at obtaining home number three for ERA to manage.

Absolutely horrible people to work with. When renting a house the realtor was 30 minutes late to the meeting. During renting the property we were never late on a payment. After the hurricane they never called to check on us or the property, which were thankfully all okay. After moving out they called multiple times and threatened us with a full months rent charge if we didnt turn in keys THAT DAY even though our lease was still good for another 10 days. When turning the keys in they questioned us on where the garage door opener was...which we never received with the house. Then they said if you dont have a garage door opener then where did you park your vehicles... to which we responded...the driveway..and they told us we should not have done that? Glad we dont have to work with these unprofessional people again.

This company is garbage. The staff is rude and disrespectful, especially Caroline. Seriously she is the rudest and nastiest person I have dealt with in a while. Completely unprofessional. Put my own money into a property and get treated like dirt from this company. Stay away from this company!

Awesome none stress and flexible

Id give this company less than 1 star (Hated It) if I could. While I cant speak for the sales team at ERA, the rental department was an absolute nightmare to deal with. Apparently Caroline, the departments head, is the only one who knows anything--ever. If you call and speak with a representative who is not Caroline, you can expect them to respond to any of your questions or concerns with something to the tune of: Ill have to consult my supervisor on that. And that may be preferable to the alternative--talking to her--because she was nothing but smug and nasty with me in any of our conversations. However, my biggest issue with this company is Carolines handling of the deposit reimbursement. She obviously didnt do a post lease walk-through herself; if she had, she would have known that the company she hired to clean the home we rented charged her--and therefore, us--$100 for the clean-up that me, my wife, and better than a half dozen of our friends, already did. For example, I wash windows for a living. I washed the sliding glass doors inside and out as well as all the windows on the inside. It is standard to wipe down the window sills before moving on to another window. Upon receiving an itemization of what the cleaning company--REO Detailing, who, I learned through a simple Google search, is actually an automobile detailer--claimed to do, enumerated cleaning window sills. This is just one example. We cleaned this place top to bottom, spic-and-span. It is stated in the lease that the tenant must have the carpets professionally cleaned--which we did--and provide ERA with a receipt verifying such--WHICH. WE. DID!!!; but, for some reason, this cleaning company felt the need to vacuum the carpets and charge us for it. I could go on and on about how poorly they handled our entire stay at 2773 Barry Rd and their exit policies. I would rather be homeless on the streets with my wife, my 2 year-old daughter, and my second daughter who is due in June, than ever have to do business with this company again.

Great company with great agents!

They have represented my landlord for more than a year. They have been easy to deal with, unobtrusive and responsive to issues that needed to be fixed.

Excellent Company to work with.

They seem to work well with landlords and tenants. They are professional and responsive to tenant concerns.

Have always been fair and kind.

Very professional business

Great customer service
