Sea Breeze Realty

At the end of my lease David sent me an email and text stating he would return my deposit, he asked for my address and I provided such information. One week passed when I receive another email stating that the deposit would not be returned due to damages on the kitchen counter. When asked to fix the problem, he denied me the chance. Another two weeks passed and I received yet another email with a quote of almost 2 thousand dollars worth of damages to a kitchen counter that isn't even worth 500 dollars. I will never EVER do business with Sea breeze Realty or David Downing. And I hope this review helps others decide NOT to do business with this company. And if you must do business with this company make sure you have all of your ducks in a row so this does not happen to you.

I simply asked David why he was emailing me from a personal email instead of the “Sea Breeze Realty” email and made mention of his multiple negative reviews. I told him there are a lot of scams out there and asked if he had a legit website. His response, “ Sorry I am am not going to consider renting to you. Thanks for the negative comments. Try that again with your next landlord” My colleague also told me he rented from David Downing who tried to screw them over and take their deposit for no reason. I would not recommend renting through this unprofessional human.

David absolutely stole $250 from my sister out of the security deposit and refused to own up to it or refund her. We have receipts proving he was stealing. never rent from this man EVER.

David stinks. Period. Every local has heard horror stories about all his properties. He is impossible to deal with and down right creepy. He once lied to me and told me he HAD to come in to change the air filters as they were a health hazard then walked back to his car got his phone proceeded to secretly record me and then asked me to come in (to which I said yes because he insisted it was a health emergency a moment before) so at that point he had me on record inviting him in and then starts video tapping the house and getting aggressive towards me since it was laundry day and we had clothes in the living room. I am a young women and I was home alone without any of my roommates. The whole thing was very uncomfortable and that was just one example.

Horrible experience with David Downing. I’m renting from him now and am thinking about moving out just so we don’t deal with him anymore. He is very pushy and has been unprofessional. He won’t answer calls or texts but expects you to give him the information that he wants on the dot. From reading these other reviews I am disappointed that we choose Sea Breeze Reality to do business with. Will never choose them or David again and will never recommend to friends.
