We haved worked with Cleo, Eric, and the Fernwood team in Las Vegas for last 8 years for real estate investment in Las Vegas. We are impressed by their unique quantitative approach to market and home selection optimized for longer term tenant retention and cash flow. Its proprietary software narrows down large MLS list to selected few homes for investors to look through. The selected candidate homes are evalated by property manager to derive more realistic potential rent and desirability of the location. The agent will visit the home and provide video guide for investors. The team is intimately involved in buying and renovating the homes for leasing. After the homes are put into services Eric is still availble to help solving issues such as major repair. We highly recommend the team to any investors wanting to own rental properties in Las Vegas.

I worked with Eric, Cleo, and Taylor back in 2024 to add two single-family investment properties to our portfolio. I found their renter-first approach unique, and we were able to identify specific properties that would attract the exact renter profile we wanted. They stayed in the trenches with me through the entire purchase and then through the remodeling and prep phase to make sure everything was move-in ready for tenants. The property management team they connected me with has been just as impressive—incredibly organized, great advice, have been excellent communicators. In addition, if anything ever occurs that is "out of the ordinary," Eric has offered numerous times to make himself available to help find a solution. Thankfully, now two years in, we have not yet needed to take him up on this. Most impressively in my opinion, is that the Fernwood Team genuinely values feedback and uses it to keep getting better. Even now, two years after those initial purchases, they still follow up to check in on how the properties are performing. (It's why I'm writing this review today) It’s clear they’re in it for the long-term partnership, not just a quick commission. When I’m ready to add more to my portfolio, there’s no question I’ll be calling them again. I would recommend them to anyone looking to add to their residential real estate portfolio, without hesitation, whether you live in Vegas or not.

I just finished a deal in Las Vegas and I have to say, Cleo, Eric and the rest of the team are very good at what they do. I'm very busy with my dental distribution business overseas and decided to invest some of our earnings into real estate. A colleague of mine suggested I look at the Vegas market, but I knew no one. I stumbled upon one of Eric's post on Bigger Pockets and the rest is history. The dude is to the point and data driven. I look forward to my second investment property with this team. I highly recommend.

It was a true pleasure working with Eric, Cleo, and their team. You can immediately tell they’re engineers—their precision, strategic thinking, and attention to detail are outstanding. As a real estate agent myself in another state, I genuinely appreciate how smoothly everything went. They handled the entire renovation perfectly, kept me informed every step of the way, and even connected me with the property manager. Everyone worked hand in hand, and the collaboration was seamless. They are highly educated, incredibly knowledgeable, and a fantastic team to work with. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again!

My wife and I had a great experience working with Fernwood Real Estate Investment Group for our first investment property. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and incredibly efficient—all done remotely. Eric, the owner, kicked things off with excellent initial training that helped us understand the whole process. Cleo, the co-owner, was fantastic in developing our investment strategy, making sure we had a clear plan. Taylor, our realtor, was crucial in finding the right properties, running comps, and drafting offers. Selena facilitated renovations with a third-party contractor, ensuring everything was done to a high standard. Angela, worked closely with the Fernwood team to evaluate the rent potential of our property and recommend renovations based on market competition to maximize returns. The entire process, including closing and tenant placement, was done virtually via Zoom, and we were able to complete everything in just 5 months—from our first contact to having a tenant in place. The team at Fernwood made our first real estate investment such a smooth and successful venture. Highly recommend Fernwood Real Estate Investment Group to anyone looking to invest in real estate in Las Vegas.

Over the past 9 years, I’ve worked with Fernwood Investment Group, an incredible real estate investment team, on several properties. Their expertise is unmatched, sharing knowledge openly and guiding me through every step. Their support software and practices are top-notch, excelling in property selection and ensuring everything runs smoothly. What sets them apart is their adaptable service model. Whether you prefer to manage details or have them handle everything, they offer the flexibility to suit any investor’s style. Their commitment to maintaining a well-oiled, comprehensive team has made my investment journey both successful and stress-free. 9 years and several properties later, I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, full-spectrum, hands-on or off real estate investment experience. Great for new and seasoned investors alike.

I don't think I can give Eric and his team enough justice here , I was looking to buy a property for a while, when I start talking with Eric and say how pragmatic he is and organized I couldn't not work with him and his team. Excellent customer service and trustworthy, so refreshing to find people to work with like that nowadays, in a complex market like we have. They went above and byond on everything and I am so happy to be first home owner after working with them. They made the process smooth for me and I know what to expect in the next steps so I can be prepared and take the right actions. buying a house is no joke work , they were available all the time. I consider Eric a friend now and I am still learning from him. Thank you Eric and your team.

John, Cleo, Taylor, and Selena are among the best investor realtors I've worked with! As a first-time homebuyer, they made the process seamless and smooth. They dedicated significant time to teaching me what to look for in an investment property. I've learned so much from the Fernwood team and plan to purchase additional properties soon. I was also impressed with their contractors, including the inspector, property manager, and renovation contractor. Everyone I've worked with are very knowledgeable and responsive. Overall, my first rental property purchase has been a very positive experience. I highly recommend using them and can't wait to purchase more properties with Fernwood!

I came across Eric and his company 15 years ago when we were looking at purchasing our first investment property in the US. At the time, we were not sure whether we wanted to invest in Las Vegas or other states, but he explained to us that Vegas was one of the best places to invest (low property taxes, great price appreciation, favorable laws for renting, etc…) which convinced us to focus on Las Vegas. What really convinced us to work with his company was their unique skill set to manage every step of the process: 1- They built their own analytical software to identify the best available properties with specific criteria aligned with renter desirability, ROI, etc… allowing to identify best cash-flowing properties 2- Once I select specific properties, they run a deeper analysis to confirm choice is good on the paper and do a very detailed video recording of the premises. During that visit, they identify what needs to be fixed or rehabbed to insure it can be rented out quickly and at the best price range. 3- They work closely with a rehab company which provide a quote. They can handle all the repairs, renovation at a very competitive pricing. 4- Last, they collaborate with a property manager offering preferred pricing if you chose so 5- Everything can be handled remotely. I only saw my first properties and all the other ones were handled 100% remotely. Over the years, I ended up buying many properties through their turn-key services and this has been the best decision ever. I only had great experience for each purchase. I also deeply appreciate the fact that they are always there for you to help to the best of their capacity independently of whether you are actively searching for new investment or not. If you are looking at investment properties in Las Vegas region, I highly recommend you contact Eric's company. They are truly the best and based on my experience, they are unmatched by the scope and depth of what they offer and the level of relationship they provide. At one point, I wanted to diversify out of NV, but never did because of the hassle-free experience and level of trust I have with Eric's company.

The Fernwood team makes out-of-state real estate investment such a easy and seamless process! You are working with a team of experts, starting with Eric who makes a convincing case of why Las Vegas and trains you on how to select your property for maximum cash flow. Once you have made the decision to invest, the rest of the team will work hard for you and most important, communicate with you and guide you through each step of the process without you having to step foot in Las Vegas if you don't want to. I really appreciate having my own project manager in Selena who lays out a clear process timeline and is very responsive to my questions and concerns. She helped me find my insurance agent and would be managing the property renovation for me before handing off the leasing process to the property management company. This team will be your eyes and ears and you can trust that they will do an excellent job for you!
