Jake American Standard / Your American Standard Montecito Nationwide

This company is the biggest scam. I called about a property and they wanted $199 upfront to see their 'listings'. No Real Estate company can charge upfront fees, other than for appraisal services, home inspections, or credit reports/applications in California. When I asked if they were licensed by the California Department of Real Estate...they said they are not a Realtors and they are a listing service. I promptly told 'Cheryl' (the sales rep) they are in violation of the law. They are brokering properties without a license and collecting upfront fees. Do not even think about doing business with this company. No website. 'F' rating on the BBB...and not licensed. When I informed her they were in in clear violation of the law she told me to call the owner. I asked for the number to the corporate office and she hung up on me. Real class act.
