Hands down the best local realitor in St. Petersburg. Jeff, Nicole and Jaimie are very professional and kind, I feel extremely lucky to have encountered them in my 'post Navy service' life!

These Townhomes are in a great location. Close to two schools and a library and grocery stores. There are several great restaurants and a lot of Beautiful churches. Also a little park across the street and about a half mile away from another playground. The management team here Jeff Copland is a great property manager. However the apartments are in need of updating. Their nice and meet needs but the previous landlord sold them needing TLC. I've been here since 2014 and for the most part its a quiet neighborhood. Its a decent place to raise your child or have a bedroom and office.

Great property management group. My tenant specifically called out that they are renewing their lease another year in 2021 as a result of the relationship and trust they have cultivated with Copeland Morgan. Astounding! Quick responses. Throughout 2020 they kept a close pulse on the climate and kept us informed on tenant payment status. Very reliable.

The property management company had Ed McCall do the lighting at all three units of my son's triplex. He installed can lighting and a fan/light combo in the bedrooms, replaced the hideous chandelier in each dining room, and put in new lighting in all the closets. Excellent, excellent job and did the work quickly and efficiently. Very satisfied.
