“I have used St. James PM and The Berry’s for over 20 years now. They have represented me in all of my investment real estate transactions. They are true professionals in their industry and know how to get the job done expediently. From a first home to a bridge home, to a permanent home, we have been impressed with every step. Their service is top-notch, their skills are seasoned over decades, and they know how to under-promise yet over-deliver. Our next purchase of beachfront property for vacationing will begin with a phone call to St James PM who will manage it for us. You will not be disappointed in their services on your behalf.”

“Mitch has helped us buy and sell on 3 transactions of income properties, and then has managed them flawlessly for years with virtually a 0% vacancy rate: nothing but the best with either St. James Property Management or The Berry’s!! What sets them apart is their aptitude and willingness to do work behind the scenes. Mitch was searching, networking, and negotiating for us every step of the way; in some instances, without us even knowing. Ultimately, we’ve acquired excellent rentals and benefitted by their acumen for knowing a great residential investment. Seasoned and very good at what they do!”

“Mitch and his team at St James PM/1031 Properties Inc skillfully and professionally took care of my every need. He got the job done just as he said he would. Great advisors if you’re looking to buy a rental as well. What has also impressed us has been the ability and willingness to proactively maintain a great relationship with our tenants over the years. That has been a blessing that we’ve also known, in our pocketbook.”

“We have had nothing but good experiences with Mitch and his team at St James!! Thoughtful, responsive, and quick to answer questions. They helped my wife and I buy our starter home, and now subsequently several cash flowing investment properties. Amazingly we went from an FHA loan about 10 years ago, to acquiring 3 different rentals, and have nearly $4,000,000 in equity now. We recall all the times Mitch would recommend us NOT buying this or that, before we came together on a better property that would ultimately prove less of a headache. Speaking of headaches, they’ve disappeared with their management efforts.”
