Run away from Dariush as fast as you can or kiss y
Dariush Shafagh sold me an investment duplex and offered to manage it for the first year. When that year was up he refused to turn over the tenants last months' rent and deposits and I found out that what he sold me was not a duplex, it was a single-family unit and he lied about it. The city shut my duplex down. Then I find out that for a year he has been collecting the utility bills from my tenants but not paying the utilities!!! This is a person who stood at my wedding and toasted trust and friendship...do you really want him doing business with YOU?
Beware!
I used Dariush's property management company to manage my condo as a rental property. Not only did he refuse to communicate with me, but he also kept my tenant's last months rent and security deposit. I had to cancel my contract with him within a month and six months and several broken promises later, still no money.
