I recently closed on my first commercial real estate deal. I worked with both Joel and Kelly and…read morehighly recommend both. I met Joel (the broker) when I was doing initial market research, and had no intentions of buying right then. Joel spent hours with me, showing me properties, giving me his opinions, and answering my questions. When I was ready to seriously look for a property to purchas months later, I worked directly with Kelly, the agent who handles deals in the Allentown area. She is very responsive, responsible, prompt and hard-working. This was actually her first commercial real estate deal also, but she was able to apply her expertise in the area, with some guidance from Joel, seamlessly. We had many unexpected bumps in the road (related to the property and to the seller), but she was able to guide me through them all and ultimately close the deal. This included working through the winter holiday period when she was otherwise on vacation! The only issue I had with her was a communication lapse regarding the timing of the home inspection, but she responded very well to feedback and was able to work with us to move forward. I therefore count that as something positive because you can't ever expect perfection from a person or situation, but it is very important to work with someone who can adjust to feedback, rectify the situation and move forward, and that's exactly who Kelly is. A couple other bonuses of this brokerage: - They use electronic signatures. In the 21st century, I don't believe you should work with anyone who can't work electronically. - The other professionals in their network with whom I have worked so far are also excellent. Aside from a realtor, you may also need other professional services, and it's always nice to have someone introduce you to people who are good at what they do.

Ask for Fady Salloum-I can't rave enough how good this guy is…read more Background story: My family and I have been toying with the idea of purchasing a vacation home for the past year. We were travelling to different areas of PA to see which neighborhoods interested us. Getting no where: I had seen two listings online and contacted their agents explaining what I was looking for and that I was an all cash buyer-both agents were busy at the time but promised to call me back and show me other listings in their inventory that would be a fit for me. Anna Skale from Keller Williams and Peter Ryan from Remax lost out on a serious all cash buyer opportunity. Hesitant: I came across a listing online which Fady Salloum from Remax was the agent. Being discouraged from the two previous agents, I didn't bother to call, or e-mail (since I was starting to think all PA real estate agents were unreliable) So I decided to just shoot him a text on June 9th, 2016. Success: Today is July 15, 2016 and we had our closing this morning on a wonderful property in Slatington. 37 days! -within 37 days, I worked with Fady through text,& emails. He showed us a total of 5 homes. He asked all the right questions and helped us narrow down our search from priority items to wishlist in a home. He even helped get our offer through. Within a mere 37 days, the home was inspected and purchased. And it didn't stop there-Fady referred several reliable companies such as landscaper, HVAC tech, contractor, insurance agent etc.... I am very grateful to have had Fady as my agent. He took the time to listen to what we wanted and helped make it happen. If you are looking for someone that is dedicated, determined, and reliable for your home search, Fady Salloum is the man.

Don't make an expensive mistake like we did…read more Even if this review only convinces one person to never rent with DLP, I will have saved someone from going through what we went through... Where do I begin with these people... For this being our first apartment (my boyfriend and I), DLP set a horrendous image for what apartment renting would be like. For starters, I genuinely don't understand why DLP charges a broker fee for apartment renting. This was an expense we were not expecting, but because we have never rented before, we thought it was common place. Turns out, it's not. So we felt robbed of $700. I was even told that my ' Real estate agent' found the apartment for me over the phone, when in fact, she did not. I found the apartment on Hot Pads. That was the first strike for us. After living in the apartment for maybe 2 months it turns out the apartment was infested with deer mice... we must have caught 7 or more in the few days of trying to catch them. We found they were living in our stove because thats were the majority of the mouse shit was. We reported it to DLP and they denied our maintenance request and told us it was our responsibility. After weeks of catching them and feeling hopeless, I called DLP maintenance directly and they told me no one else in the apartment has ever reported mice. I didn't believe them for a second because, after speaking to the neighbors, they had mice for years. They finally sent someone to 'correct' the problem a few weeks after we reported the issue. They really just plugged up the holes they were getting into our apartment from. Maybe 2 months after we found mice, we were sitting in our living room late at night and smelled smoke. There was a fire in the downstairs apartment. The building had to be evacuated of course and we had to wait for the fire department to take care of the fire. The next few days after, I called DLP to ask how the fore started due to fear of what caused it. I was told I would get a call back from the property management about my questions... I never received a call back... Things were pretty tame for a month about until a panel from our ceiling fell in our bathroom. A huge part of drywall fell on top of the ceiling panel and got debris everywhere. Literally parts of the ceiling that they were tying to conceal were exposed such as cracks and peeling paint that they didn't bother to fix. So every once in a while, smaller parts of the ceiling fall on our floor and we just sweep it up knowing they are not going to fix it anytime soon. Honestly, its probably a structural problem rather than a cosmetic issue. Especially since you could feel how weak the floors were when walking. Thank God we were not in the room when it fell or it would have feel on us and thank God the entire building somehow held up while we were in it. A few weeks after that, the handle on our bathtub broke and water erupted from our tub. When we went into the basement to turn the water off in our apartment, it turns our, there is no water shut off for our apartment. We had a direct line from the city. That means, we had to call the city. Now we are on the third floor, so imaging water pouring out of our tub and having no immediate way of shitting it off. DLP send a plummer out 4 times and finally fixed the tub pipping and gave us a shut off valve. That was only after i told them in not paying rent until the issue is fixed. Not our sink is leaking so I'm going to have to go through all this again. One day, during heavy rain, water leaked through our weak ceiling and water pooled in our kitchen and bathroom ceiling tiles. Not to mention the extreme leaking in the hallway right outside our apartment door. The only redeeming quality that DLP had for us was the maintenance staff we dealt with, and that is just because they were genuinely nice people. I thought DLP our backs. I could not have been more wrong. have plenty of receipts/ pictures for what we went through. I hope you read this entire review and realize DLP is not an option. You deserve to be treated like a person, not a dollar sign.

We have rented from Axel Property Management for 1 year (2023 to 2024). The house is very run…read moredown, filthy with basic utilities like heat not working, washing machine broken, front door with gaping hole (security concern) and some minor problems. The main problem with Axel property management is the customer service and responsiveness to problems. The manager that we are told we must work with is Gene who is very rude. I was told by Gene that I was bothering her too much when asked to get the door fixed for security issues (this took months to fix by Axel PM). At least 3 service reports and many phone calls were made during the month of January and Feb to beg and request the heat be fixed. The only way the heat would be addressed by Axel PM was after the city was called and they were threatened by the City of Bethlehem to fix the heat. After one attempt to fix the heat, the fire department had to be called because oil was spilled in the basement. we have had no positive interactions with Axel PM and Gene has been especially rude and difficult to work with. I would strongly recommend not renting from Axel PM.
