88 Realty

I would like to, ALSO (I am a victim as well, Amy S!!!), write this review in order to warn others who are looking to rent a home in the Las Vegas area.
Sharif-​Yazdi who goes by Sharif is a hot-​tempered obnoxious thief that WILL try to strong-​arm money out of you through scare tactics and childish behavior.
I have been living in Las Vegas for over 5 years. Always rented and never encountered a man with such low moral standards. To think that this person is in charge of several other renters scares me even more. I am thankful that I am familiar with Nevada housing law and what my rights are as a renter, or else I would’ve been at the mercy of this clown.
This man attempted to enter my premises UNANNOUNCED… Are you kidding me? I pay rent through an online website the company provided and they will try to add bogus fees to pocket the extra money. This happened to me several times.
For example, I had a HOA violation fee that cost $ 50. 88 Realty changed this fee on their website to $ 150. I called to ask why they have done this and all I get from Sharif is yelling and cussing on the phone saying that he added $ 100 for – wait for it… HIS TIME. Wait what?.. His time?! He was trying to bill me for his – and I QUOTE: «PRECIOUS time»!!! I was shocked. I finally threatened to sue in small claims court and he backed off.
Seeing another Unilocaler that has experienced Sharif’s thieving tactics proves my point further: STAY AWAY FROM THESE PEOPLE. Whenever I visit their run-​down rented space they call an office, it is clear to see that this «company» has no idea what they are doing. I am still in disbelief that they are legally operating.
If you would like even further proof (or just for pure entertainment), please email me personally at
and I will provide you with our e-​mail relays that have occurred over the past months. I will show you his childish and mundane tricks that he tries to pull on you to make an extra buck on the side, and how he attempts to be obnoxious and rude but miserably fails. How sad to see such a respectable industry be cluttered with thieves and low lives that do not even have a single ounce of customer service to offer.

I am providing this review to caution those of you in Las Vegas who are looking for a home to rent.
88 Realty (Sharif-​Yazdi) is COMPLETELY DISHONEST.
There are plenty, PLENTY of other property management firms in Las Vegas. I have worked with several of them over the course of the 14 years that I spent living in Las Vegas and never had a single problem. I always pay my rent on time and always keep my homes in good condition and I ALWAYS get my security deposit back at the end of my lease term. Until I decided to rent with 88 Realty (actually when I leased my home, it was through Priority Realty, who sold my lease to 88 Realty).
Problem: I just ended a 2 year lease term with 88 Realty. Never late on rent. Several maintenance requests throughout the 2 years I lived in the house went unanswered, which I was willing to forgive. I just wanted my $ 1,300 security deposit refunded. I took pictures of EVERY room in this house and it looks immaculate. I left this house in better shape than it was in when I moved in — had it professionally cleaned, carpets shampooed, etc.
It’s now three months later and I’ve yet to receive a dime back from 88 Realty. When you call them you get someone on the phone who does not speak English. almost EVERY time you call this is the case. I have placed a complaint with the BBB and am preparing to sue this company.
My advice to you individuals and families in Las Vegas who are looking for a home to rent — if you see «88» or hear the name Sharif Yazdi — KEEP ON LOOKING. Unless you want to be taken advantage of and out and out RIPPED OFF!
If a person entered your home and stole $ 1,300 out of your wallet, it’s called GRAND THEFT. If Sharif Yazdi just decides to keep your hard earned money, what is it called? A white collar crime? I’m not going to let it go unpunished.
