These blogs have been established to let condo owners, realtors and media members know just how bad a firm that the various Waterstone operations are, this from my own personal experience over the past 28+ months of having tried to deal with them.

Waterstone did not vacate and remains on premises and refuses to surrender possession.<br /><br />The summons was served on C. Anthony Edwards which resulted in attorney H. L. Perry to enter an Emergency Motion for a Stay of Writ and ask for a new hearing in the matter.<br /><br />Waterstone objects to the Notice to Vacate and alleges a 6 year lease is in effect and that they have invested over $100,000 in upgrades to #102. Also that the information Pelican used in their original application was incorrect and a legal citation Pelican provided was later overturned and thus invalid.<br /><br />The matter remains to be decided and W retains possession for now.</span> </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;"></span><br /><span style="color:#cc0000;"><em><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Double click for larger image or print out:</span><br /></em></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP7STMicFzIhUDOzs-Kim0RZ4lxh-lqYYvbY7Vn3vgj_CG_2mVRBHqrajlgwATyaDIU4UlQmxYv24cSRIDbYx6tP6js9zNL-G9nFiO6RIzH5PDNDyRCXSnEEBTPYJtTTyDxRB8MmTCp0c/s1600/image0.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; FLOAT: left; CLEAR: both" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP7STMicFzIhUDOzs-Kim0RZ4lxh-lqYYvbY7Vn3vgj_CG_2mVRBHqrajlgwATyaDIU4UlQmxYv24cSRIDbYx6tP6js9zNL-G9nFiO6RIzH5PDNDyRCXSnEEBTPYJtTTyDxRB8MmTCp0c/s400/image0.jpg" width="358" height="463" /></a><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left; CLEAR: both"><a href="http://picasa.google.com/blogger/" target="ext"><img style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BACKGROUND: 0% 50%; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial" border="0" alt="Posted by Picasa" align="middle" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif" /></a></div>Concerned Owner at N.C.C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11128330212336061809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1302151043671309930.post-13930944005083235242010-03-13T08:30:00.000-06:002010-03-13T08:29:07.430-06:00MISC Update FYI:<span style="font-family:verdana;color:#cc0000;"><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>Waterstone Resort Realty, LLC</strong></span> HAD 4 condos at Nautilus Cove Condo in PCB.

On 4/27/07 each unit was sold to Waterstone at $164,900 with Compass Bank providing the mortgages.<br /><br />This leaves a deficit of about $116,000 owed to Compass Bank, the other condos may go in the same range leaving Compass still due about $460,000 from Waterstone/NCPCB Investments. Probably Compass intends to bid on all the remaining units. Of course anyone can buy the remaing 3, if you want a bargain on them then you can go to the north steps of the Bay County Courthouse on the date specified and put in your bid.

The attorney for Nautilus Cove Condominium is Steven Applebaum who had insisted that the matter go to arbitration.<br /><br />In the latest nonsense from attorney Applebaum, he writes in part: "I cannot agree to the arbitration that is presently scheduled for May 12, 2009, in the above referenced matter.

So far both the NCC BOD and Waterstone (now known as NCPCB Investments, LLC) have been totally uncooperative in setting a date for this to proceed.<br /><br />I do understand why Waterstone/NCPCB Investments seek a delay, in my opinion, they are as close to going out of business as to make no real difference. They are behind on their assessments, haven't paid their mortgage to Compass Bank since July 08 and are now in forclosure on 710, 712, 714 and 716, so the delay is an obvious attempt to avoid having to answer for their screw up in renting illegally.<br /><br />The motives of the Association BOD is less clear. I would write this off to simple indifference on their part as 2 of the 3 BOD members are developers of the complex and really could not care less what happens here.<br /><br />The problem is that this matter will eventually be heard and decided with the loser paying ALL costs and attorney fees for both sides. Since I am not dumb enough to start a civil action that wasn't a sure winner I'm afraid that, with Waterstone pretty much down the tubes, the NCC owners will be on the hook for the costs and attorney fees of about $25,000. This will probably mandate a special assessment as there is no provision in the 2009 budget for this.</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;">The matter never needed to go to court in the first place, but the BOD and Seagrove Management Company repeatedly ignored the complaints about the condo misuse. In fact the BOD and current management company (Concord) are still ignoring another similar matter with the misuse of 706. </span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;">Details can be found at:</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;"><a href="http://tinyurl.com/c6fvlt">http://tinyurl.com/c6fvlt</a> </span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;"><a href="http://nautiluscovesuit2008.blogspot.com/">http://nautiluscovesuit2008.blogspot.com/</a> </span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#000000;"><a href="http://waterstoneresortsllc.blogspot.com/">http://waterstoneresortsllc.blogspot.com/</a> </span></strong></div>Concerned Owner at N.C.C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11128330212336061809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1302151043671309930.post-67384873616479126002009-02-27T09:08:00.000-06:002009-02-27T09:09:17.617-06:00Update FYI<span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><span style="color:#3333ff;"><span style="color:#000000;">1)</span> Waterstone Resort Realty, LLC</span> filed on 2/16/09 with an 'amendment' to their Articles of Organization to change the name of their LLC to: <span style="color:#ff0000;">NCPCB Investments, LLC</span> this is found at</strong> </span></span><a href="http://www.sunbiz.org/pdf/43445662.pdf"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;">http://www.sunbiz.org/pdf/43445662.pdf</span></a><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#000000;">2) <span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The 4 condos that 'were' owned by Waterstone at Nautilus Cove Condo are in foreclosure.

<br /><strong>Waterstone Resorts and Vacation Homes offer vacation rentals all over the state of Florida. On Panama City Beach they claim to manage properties from ten different resorts. The company’s website is full of glowing reviews and recommendations but if someone just scratches the Google search service a little, they will find numerous negative claims about Waterstone. If that is not enough a check of their status with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) finds a C- rating due to a series of unresolved complaints. On a Waterstone blog website there is evidence that the BBB has given them an unsatisfactory rating, but this has not been discovered in any BBB materials as of yet.</strong>
<br /><strong>
<br />“Waterstone Sucks,” seems to be the ringing sentiment of many current and past clients of the company found on blog websites all over the internet.
<br />
<br />Jim Pitts, an owner at Calypso Resorts and Towers that used Waterstone, stated that he inspected his unit three times last year and each time the unit was filthy.
<br />“The carpet was so dirty it had to be replaced,” Pitts said. “There was filth everywhere. The walls were marked up, dust and dirt caked on baseboards, light bulbs and even the toaster was dirty.”
<br />
<br />Pitts wrote a handwritten note and email to Waterstone stating that he no longer wanted them to manage his properties. His communications went ignored until he sent a certified letter sometime later demanding that tenants be removed from his property and that Waterstone cease any further management of his property.
<br />Pitts also feels that the company is unethical and unfair in their fee structure and maintenance.
<br />
<br />“They charge the owner for travel agent fees on top of their own (fees) and they charge the owner for ‘credit card’ use. They will charge the owner a minimum of $22.50 every time they so much as set foot in the unit to do anything,” Pitts said.
<br />
<br />“They rip the owners off with the keyless entry crap and owners of Calypso units need to understand that these people are absolutely ruining our investments. They need to be removed from the premises.”
<br />
<br />Bill Harris, another individual who has had dealings with Waterstone, has set up numerous blog websites for angered property owners to vent their passions about Waterstone. These can be found at: <a href="http://www.waterstonerealty.blogspot.com/">http://www.waterstonerealty.blogspot.com/</a>,
<br /><a href="http://www.calypsoresorttowers.blogspot.com/">http://www.calypsoresorttowers.blogspot.com/</a>, <a href="http://www.nautiluscovesuit2008.blogspot.com/">http://www.nautiluscovesuit2008.blogspot.com/</a> and <a href="http://www.nautiluscondosrules.blogspot.com/">http://www.nautiluscondosrules.blogspot.com/</a> .
<br />
<br />Harris claims that Waterstone owns four units at Nautilus Cove Condominiums and that the company is currently past due on their condo’s quarterly assessments. There is also evidence that the State of Florida has already four outstanding liens against the company for over $118,000. If the Nautilus Cove past due amounts were not paid by the end of ’08 then Waterstone will be facing new liens.
<br />
<br />Waterstone seems to find them self in a public relation nightmare. When a company ignores claims from concerned clients, there are avenues that these clients can take to attack the company’s reputation. As of right now, a Google search of “Waterstone Panama City” brings up typical listings for the company. The company should be aware that as these blog websites attract new participants there could be a day, not far off, that one of these blog websites could be ranked by a search engine right underneath the Waterstone website or even above it.</strong>

In checking today I found the below post which says better than I ever could just why Waterstone SUCKS - here it is FYI:</strong><br />------------------------------------------------------<br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;">Author Comment Jim Pitts<br />Jan 4, 09 - 5:36 PM </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;">Waterstone Sucks- I am an owner at Calypso. I had my unit with Waterstone. I've never stayed in the unit myself, but did inspect it three times last year and each time it was dirty. The first two times, I informed the desk and asked that they have the unit re-cleaned. I never checked back to see if it was done. </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;">In Nov I again inspected the unit, it was not just dirty. It was filthy!! The carpet was so dirty, it had to be replaced. There was filth everywhere. The walls were marked up, dust and dirt caked on baseboards, light bulbs. Even the toaster was dirty. I was so disgusted, I gave the Waterstone office a handwritten note right then and told them they were fired. </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;">They did not acknowledge the note, I sent them an email and again they did not respond. Finally on Nov 11, I sent them a certified letter telling them they were no longer to rent my unit and if they had renters, to put them elsewhere. I then undertook the job of totally renewing the unit with new carpet, paint, etc. Not only are they the worst housekeepers I've ever seen, but they charge the owner for Travel Agent Fees on top of their own. </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;">They charge the owner for "credit card" use. And, they will charge the owner a minimun of $22.50 everytime they so much as set foot in the unit to do anything, all the while charging the owner $35.00 a month for maintenance that is never covered or done. They rip the owners off with the keyless entry crap. </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;">Owners of Calypso units, need to understand that these people are absolutely ruining our investments, and they need to be removed from the premises. Suck!!! You bet they SUCK!! And we as owners, need to find other managers and run these SUCKERS off the premises. </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#3333ff;">Jim Pitts </span>Concerned Owner at N.C.C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11128330212336061809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1302151043671309930.post-53630584037974949942008-12-29T22:16:00.005-06:002008-12-30T08:12:12.842-06:00Top 10 Stories for 2008 - NCC is #4<span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;"><strong>Top Stories for 2008 on PCBDAILY.COM</strong></span><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;">Jason Koertge has an interesting blog site (<a href="http://pcbdaily.com/">http://pcbdaily.com/</a>) which has news and comments titled, Panama City Beach News and Information. </span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;"><br />He recently named the top 10 stories for 2008 on his blog. </span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;">Nautilus Cove is one of the 3 articles dealing with problems at local condos and the condo market as a whole. </span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;">We are #4 on the list of ten, with Koertge's initial input on the situation and 30 <em>'comments'</em> from readers. </span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;">The direct click on link to the NCC story is: </span></strong><a href="http://pcbdaily.com/?p=3151"><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;">http://pcbdaily.com/?p=3151</span></strong></a><br /><br />===================================Concerned Owner at N.C.C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11128330212336061809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1302151043671309930.post-41358469520564869092008-12-28T16:02:00.000-06:002008-12-28T18:15:04.664-06:00<iframe style="WIDTH: 418px; HEIGHT: 60px" src="http://free.timeanddate.com/clock/i1bfxr12/n944/fn11/fs36/fcf00/ftb/bas7/bat4/tt0/tw1/tm1/ts1" frameborder="0" width="444" height="60"></iframe><br /><div align="left"><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:180%;color:#3366ff;"><span style="font-family:verdana;">Panama City Beach, Florida</span> </span></strong></div>Concerned Owner at N.C.C.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11128330212336061809noreply@blogger.com0
