What kind of a home is where you need to pay in order to be comfortable? I am talking about those scam club fees you are forcing people to pay and if they don't do that, they get sued! Your whole place is covered with scams and manipulation of the residents. No wonder it is empty for so many years... The most awkward part is that the place is full with people who have some kind of a criminal background. It is like the mafia is living there... NO WORDS!
What's with all the things going on in this place? Intimidation, bullying, enforcement! Scaring and threatening residents, investors losing millions, homeowners fleeing the place because they cannot get a deal with the managers! This place turned into real life ghost town in the last 10 years. No one wants to buy a house there. Why? Why is all of this?
I can't believe such a community can't do things like these. What's with all the news circling around Bella Collina, people are getting disappointed. Once a community which served as a true luxurious example, now a mobster management silencing everyone for saying a word against them. Why they refused support of Black Lives Matter sign anyway? It all comes to me, that these people are managing really bad there... No wonder no one wants to buy a home!
From what I am reading about this place and I found a lot of things, people lost $700 million! That is about 500 families who traded lawsuits with the community, not only lost so much money, but fled their homes and sold them. Some got fair prices, but most lost millions in their investments. What a disgrace...
What scares me the most about this place is that it continuously looks good in the mainstream media, but in fact there are so evil things going on. People are getting intimidated and scared and losing millions on the other side. Their unprofessional behavior and management is hidden pretty well behind their connections. It is no question, when you will see that Dwight Schar is the man owning this place, the same businessman whom businesses are being investigated from the FBI!
I've read that a family in this place has been harassed and stalked by the management for years, because they've shared publicly their opinion about the community they live in, with a Google review. After that review, their whole life went upside down, since the management of Bella Collina has stalked, harassed and threatened to ruin the lives of a husband, wife and three little girls! The mother, Anna even wrote a letter to the owner of Bella Collina, for the harassment to stop, but after him ignoring it, she shared it online looking for help. What kind of luxury is this?
Bella Collina is drastically losing the money. The community is like a sinking ship that drove the residents out of the place and made them decide to not invest even a penny anymore. They stopped paying the high fees of the club and fled the community. How do I know this? I helped my son with buying a house there, but after what we've been through, NEVER AGAIN!
People are losing big money in this place! More then 500 families invested in Bella Collina in the previous years and lost millions, so after awhile they sued the community and fled the place. Why is that? Well, the managers are the ones being sued for intimidation and acting like a mafia enforcers to the residents, forgetting about the place and transforming it into a ghost town. Well, what kind of a fool will want to live in Bella Collina, a place where people are being harassed on one side and charging $80,000 for a club annually, they are not using, not maintained pavements, park, golf course on the other side?
I was on my friend's wedding here in Bella Collina about 1 year ago. She was the bride. The most gorgeous one! Her wish of being fancy in a beautiful place like Bella Collina was fulfilled! Everything was great, until they came to the step of settling up the bills after the wedding. So they've charged them with extra fees, which were not agreed on before with a rude explanation "That's how it is. This is your wedding and these are your costs!" I mean wow!? They payed them of course, they didn't want trouble. And here we are 1 year later, after long fights, they got divorced... Well I've read somewhere else as well, people are accusing this place of bad luck...!?
Do your research. Bella Collina is a beautiful venue for a wedding! It's an awesome place to play golf. However, there would be absolutely nothing you can say to convince me to buy a home here. The People run this place are just plain evil!
I see so many bad reviews here? I remember Bella Collina as one of the most beautiful and peaceful places to live in the Orlando area. Those things certainly changed in the last years! What most disappointed me was their opposing of a BLM sign in a family's yard!? I am an activist of the BLM and that got me hard...
A real scam! They haven't sold a single home for years and yet they are pushing you to buy one telling you that they have the most beautiful homes in the most luxurious community! Yeah right... They pushed us to buy a home we don't like at all. It was really strange and unprofessional for someone to push you to buy something and just make a profit of it... Do your homework people!
Residents of Bella Collina lost $700 mil. They lost everything! What was once a wish to live in a luxury community, now it turned to be the last place on Earth, where people will invest. People need to thank the manages of Bella Collina for that. They turned the place into an empty community with barely any families living there!
It is really disappointing to hear that such a behavior is a common thing for the management in Bella Collina! On one occasion we were invited in Bella Collina to play golf. The place seems amazing. There were some things which I found unprofessional. The golf course was not maintained with a lot of holes and big grass, where you can fall and break a leg. After the golf, I was interested in looking at the houses and possibly like some, but the manager was really rude in some way, pushy, lacking professionalism and focusing only to sell, so I just backed off. Later I am reading that the management is being sued for intimidation, racketeering and bullying the residents. REAL MAFIA-STYLE BEHAVIOR in Bella Collina, unfortunately! Never going again! P. S I found a picture on the web about it, take a look!
Went with my sister and a friend to the Spa at Bella Collina. Two months in advance we were planning the day when the three of us will go to a beautiful Spa and relax for the weekend. First when we got there, the reception lady was not really welcoming. She was looking weird and had that poker face, like we shouldn't be there. Second, we asked for some drinks and to grab a snack. Called this lady again, and she behaved like we were disturbing her and we got our order 1 hour later, when we were supposed to leave. Then we called for a manager or someone responsible to speak with, but no one was there. Never mind, I wanted to share this bad experience with everyone about the rude staff in Bella Collina!
Bella Collina supposed to be a luxury community meant for the people who want to live a good life. That was the vision for building this community. But after Dwight Schar bought it, the community turned from luxury to a ghost town! He brought his evil and criminal management and the problems started. What can you expect from people who only want to profit?
Two of my friends got married at Bella Collina. I only managed to attend one of the weddings there and unfortunately I was really disappointed. The wedding was at a small restaurant with decent food and not satisfying service at all. I felt like the staff was not in the mood of serving, strange! And the worst thing, the groom which is my friend, payed a really high price for something which is not wow at all, never the fact, the place is beautiful. But it is like cursed with bad luck. The two couples after the weddings, started fighting, like for no reason. The one couple divorced and another one is on the way now. But that is just only my opinion and believe. Yikes!
NVR's founder Dwight Schar is an owner of Bella Collina in Orlando too. His managers are bullying and intimidating residents from the community. The residents have reported on many occasions, bullying, intimidation and force. On one side they lost millions of dollars and on the other they abandoned their homes and have fled Bella Collina forever! Several of the families who owned property in the community have sued the business for racketeering, fraud, scams, and embezzlement. Is this the proper way of managing a luxurious community?
I remember this place was imagined to be a true luxury in Florida back in the days, now it is a ghost town with barely any residents living in it... Too far from Orlando!
I was shocked when I read that Bella Collina's residents sued the community for abusive behavior. This became such a common thing lately with the communities, that is really odd! How can you buy a million-dollar home only to get abused? I don't get it! Things got real when I've read that the community oppressed homeowners for placing a Black Lives Matter supporting sign in their yard! That, I can't stand...
