When something needed to be fixed or looked at, Sullivan would tell me and even line up someone to do the required work. I look at the other comments about Sullivan and I see that the comments are really about the houses, not Sullivan. Sullivan is great at checking on the houses and telling the owners what needs to be done, but Sullivan cannot be responsible for the status of the house. Please understand Sullivan's role as the listing agent, they do not directly care for the house.

Like others, we had. very disappointing experience with Phillips Real Estate…read more The pros: When we complained about the absolutely unacceptable rental we were put in, they moved us to another, better rental. In person, the realtors were friendly. The cons: We looked at photos of dozens of rentals online. We were looking for a small rental to sleep 2 that would accommodate our small dog. After multiple conversations with people at Phillips, we decided to rent Mohegan Cottage. When we arrived, what we found was a lovely view and a "cottage" that was mostly clean but otherwise really unsuitable for anyone other than college students. There were literally holes in the walls, bare outlets, cords ripped out of walls, broken fixtures, and rust everywhere. The "master bedroom" was separated from the main living space by a folding door with no wall. The screen door out to the deck had rips with giant pieces of duct tape over them. The mattress was hard as a rock. The insides of the cabinets were sticky with grime. (See attached photos) We called immediately and were told, "Yes, it's rustic." The next morning, we called and said it was really unacceptable. They offered to find us another place but said that any place that accepted dogs was going to be in this condition (not true), that any place at that price with a water view would be in that condition (also not true - we checked other realtors' sites), and that the owners knew it was really bad and weren't making repairs because they were going to be tearing it down in a few months. They then showed us another house. This one was nicely furnished and comfortable. It did not have a view, but that was OK. They told us there was a farm with chickens on one side and construction on the other. When I asked if other renters had complained about any noise, they wouldn't give me a direct answer. We decided to move to the new house because the first one wasn't livable. However, we soon found that at least three roosters crowed every morning starting at 4:00 a.m. The farm also seemed to have an ongoing altercation, with people yelling at and threatening each other. Again, the Phillips people seemed surprised, and again, we found information online that described at least the altercation issue in detail. Overall, we had a very nice vacation, although we didn't get enough sleep! But the experience with Phillips was concerning, mostly because they were so non-forthcoming with accurate information about the rentals.

This has to be the worst rental experience in our 30 years of vacationing on Block Island. The…read morehouse was a wreck, dirty, unusable and broken furniture, the front of the refrigerator is literally rusting off, dishes in the dishwasher, laundry in the dryer and left over food all over the kitchen. The layers of dust were so thick, I actually took pictures of them. And there was a $160 "cleaning" fee with the rental. When I called to discuss, I was told that there were pictures on the website. The only saving grace was that it was a short stay this time. Will avoid at all cost. If anyone wants pictures, I will be happy to send.
