Here is what I was charged: not including the $800. $51 for working lightbulbs. $257 for new blinds-and I purchased (and left) new ones. $287 to remove empty planters & a bathroom stand. $800 for ?????

I endured all these financial issues, while maintaining the rent at the property, and erroneous fees, all in the midst of losing my parent. The treatment was/is abhorrent.

DONT RENT FROM THEM!!!…read more Nothing but problems since move in. I'll list the issues we've had in the past 5 months. 1. Me and my very pregnant wife (that gave birth days after moving in) moved into our house 5 months ago. When we took the tour of the house we noticed that there was bug traps everywhere but we didn't see any bugs themselves. When we asked about them we were told that they recently remodeled the kitchen and had a bug issue but they had been replacing the traps weekly and had no sign of bugs for several weeks. The day after we move in we find roached and other bugs all over the house. Bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, living spaces, you name it there was bugs. When we contacted our property manager they said that its our problem now and they weren't going to do anything. We contacted an exterminator that found that the kitchenet in the basement was not properly sealed and has signs that bugs have been present in that area for years. They still refused to do anything. 2. We have contacted a health inspector that found MULTIPLE building and safety violations. They have not repaired them and an inspector may be getting a phone call real soon. 3. We put in several service requests that never got answered because they were waiting on property owner approval. The property owner made contact with me in regard to having some trees trimmed. During that conversation I asked if there was an issue in regards to our service requests. He explains to me that he was never contacted about any service requests and that he would look into it. We received very poor service shortly after. 4. The water heater broke leaking water everywhere and their emergency maintenance people took several days to respond. That also required a phone call to the property owner to get it resolved. 5. When my wife came off of maternity leave she was given very few hours at work as a preschool teacher and ended up switching jobs to be able to get her regular 40 hours a week back. We expressed that this loss of income was very unexpected as she was told she would return to her normal schedule upon return. We also expressed that we may not be able to make the full payment by the due date but would be sure it would be paid in full by the end of the month. There was no flexibility offered or available to us since we were only renting for a few months at the time. We did pay all of our rent along with the late fees which were several hundred dollars by the end of the month. We have never rolled a balance into the following month. 6. We then receive an email that we are being charged $500 for lawyer fees. Which they put into our rental portal as so they could then charge late fees if not paid. When we asked what lawyer fees we are paying for they told us that they would not go into detail and that our portal ledger is the only information they would give. It wasn't until we received legal counsel that told us that they are obligated to tell us what legal service we are paying for that they finally sent us an invoice from a very low rated law firm that was no different from what they gave so its still an unknown service. They also sent us this email at 5pm and told us we had to pay the fee by end of day or we would receive late fees. The office closes at 5 and we are under the assumption that it was a timed email so we would not have the ability to contact anyone about this email until tomorrow.

We would like to express our most sincere gratitude to Ms. Lauryn Eadie and the Circadian Realty…read moreGroup for their recent work which resulted in the rapid sale of our home on 2013 Turtle Pond Drive on June 13th 2025. Lauryn is a true realty professional, and in our assessment, is the absolute finest Realtor in the Northern Virginia area. Her vast knowledge, expertise, dedication, and assistance were of the absolute finest quality. Lauryn's astute marketing skill and ability to optimize buyer interest in the National Capital Region with a very competitive housing market resulted in a rapid and optimal sale and closing of our home. Searching for a good realtor is a daunting process--some were too pushy, some unreliable, some more interested in their iPhone than in what we had to say. By chance, our daughter recommended Lauryn to us--we met for about an hour and the rest is history. Lauryn diligently began to advocate for us; her photography and staging team was top-notch and did an outstanding job in preparation for putting the house on the market. Lauryn was always available, always on time, and always followed-up with us that same day/evening if there were pending questions or other matters that needed attention. She always answered every question clearly and succinctly and made sure that we always had 100% of the information needed to make sound decisions. She's not afraid to advise when something wasn't quite right--particularly, if the outcome posed potential negative financial consequences to us--an absolutely fantastic representative, she always does the right thing. Lauryn is courteous, energetic, and engaging--she knows what's required; she worked daily with realtors of potential buyers when needed. Lauryn never placed us under any pressure at any time; she pleasantly cares about her customers as individuals and as families and cares deeply about Veterans--she is an absolute delight to work with. Lauryn remained true to her superior work ethic to the end; we received the perfect offer in just 14 days and closed on the home shortly thereafter. We are certain that this would not have been possible without the hard work and staunch commitment of Lauryn Eadie. Lauryn is a high-impact realty professional who gets things done! J We give Lauryn Eadie and Circadian Realty our very highest possible rating of 10 Stars (five for each of us). Most Sincerely, Mark E. Schutzius & Cynthia R. Henry.

She assisted my brother and me with the sale of our parents' home in April 2022. I have worked with many real estate professionals on several transactions over the years and can say with confidence that Philippa is one of the best I have ever used. Philippa has the qualities that make her an extremely successful and effective agent. We found her extremely knowledgeable and well-attuned to the super fast-changing market of early 2022. She was always attentive to our concerns and very responsive to questions, often responding immediately no matter the time. She showed great attention to detail enabling the sale to be made in less than a week. Our mother had recently passed away and we were raw with grief. Furthermore, we live in California, so it was even more important that we could rely on someone like Philippa to take the reins from beginning to end and that is exactly what she did. She was able to interpret and solve all the questions pertaining to our mother's Trust without the need for outside lawyers, and this was a great convenience to us. We also feel that we got the highest price possible for the house based on her pricing strategy and advice. Philippa exceeded our expectations in every way. The sale went very smoothly and we closed on time. I would not hesitate to recommend Philippa to anyone in need of a listing agent or for the purchase of a home. We interviewed three other agents before deciding on Philippa and she did not disappoint. Every detail was perfect, from the fantastic professional photos, the listing description, to the impeccable transactional aspects leading to the close of escrow. In a nutshell, she is a top tier professional, intelligent, tenacious, fun and talkative, bright and conscientious. If you need an agent/broker then hire Philippa Main. You won't be disappointed.

Over the last two decades I've owned and managed several rental units in Reston and for much of…read morethat time Mark Wilson, a man I've known and worked with for many years, helped me in vetting tenants, negotiating leases, and acquiring maintenance assistance when it was needed. It was always a smooth process. So when it came time to finally sell the final property there was no question in my mind who I would turn to handle the transaction. The sale was made as part of a 1031 Exchange which takes special expertise and Mark brought this and much more to the table making the entire process as efficient and as transparent as possible. His market analysis and subsequent contract negotiation was on the mark - pun intended - and we brought the sale to close in record time. Timing was important because of the Exchange requirements which necessitate closure within some very strict parameters. To assist in this Mark referred me to an excellent colleague of his in my acquisition market - Richmond, VA - and that proved key in making the entire process work. What could have been a tricky - and costly - procedure went very quickly and very smoothly. My time in the Reston market both as a resident and investor has now come to a close but were that ever to change Mark would be the first person I'd call to get it taken care of. He is a person of integrity whose opinions I value, skills as an agent I admire, and recommendations I have faithfully and profitably followed. If you're in need of a truly professional real estate agent, I highly recommend him to you. He does not disappoint. Thanks Marks!

He also has great insight when viewing homes and helped us focus on the important details of a home that first time home buyers like us might miss.

From day one, he truly listened to our needs and gave thoughtful recommendations about what would be a good long-term investment versus what might end up being a money pit. He wasn't the type to push for a quick sale--in fact, he pointed out property damage and issues we might've missed on our own, which really built our trust. He stood out among all the other real estate agents we attempted working with. Thanks to his guidance and expertise, we ended up getting our top-choice home in just eight days! The process was seamless from start to finish. Even recently, when we needed to relocate, Peter offered to help us find renters and has continued to be supportive. We'll absolutely be working with him again when it's time to sell. As first time home buyers, we felt we got amazing value for the services provided. Highly recommend Peter and the Red Cedar Real Estate team for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, genuine, and reliable agent.

The best way to describe Peter and Red Cedar is high touch, white glove - concierge service. Peter knew the market and had a powerful team of equally adept realty professionals. Nothing happened without Peter's knowledge and he always focused on what was best for us: Initially meeting through closing. Here's where the professionalism goes to another level - Peter builds relationships with his clients, throws mixers, and checked up on us a couple of times per year. And, he DIDN'T ASK US FOR THE NEXT DEAL each time he subtly checked in on us over 5 years! He and his team cares about you - long term not just to get a sale. After 5 years of relationship building, we called Peter and the Red Cedar team for support. He came over. We completed representation paperwork, his AMAZING 360 degree Ariel and interior video/photography genius turned up and transformed our house into a buyer's beacon that sold our home within 24-48 hours of posting - FULL PRICE OFFER!!!! This is Red Cedar - all day long. After getting an offer, Peter and his team coordinate every document, appointment, and follow-up like a well oiled machine. The signing appointment was completely painless without any hiccups in the paperwork or payout - again, Peter and Red Cedar are professionals and the service providers (Ex. Title Company) were exceptional too. Thanks Peter and Red Cedar for your exemplary support, education, and caring over 5 years!

They then tried to switch to an hourly rate and offer expensive off-the-wall solutions to finish the initial job that they botched (same as other reviewer). I've used contractors before and this is by far my worst experience. Strike 1 - the agreed upon job was to mount and level all of the cabinets for granite. They left stating a portion of the cabinetry was a quarter inch lower and the granite guys would fix it. Dynamic didn't finish the work and kept stating they stayed more hours than they should've so they left. When the granite installers couldn't finish their job because of the uneven and unfinished cabinetry work-- Dynamic stated we needed to a $900 solution for the work they initially agreed upon (this included metal jacks in the basement for our main level kitchen floors, what?!). Needless to say, we got real professionals in here to simply increase the base height of the cabinets a quarter inch using 2x4s and the granite installed wonderfully. There were no "floor stabilization issues" as Dynamic continually said there would be. Strike 2 - the other part of the job was to add an outlet above the stove for our range hood. Dynamic used an existing outlet, reran those wires to the new outlet. Then they closed the old outlet up with drywall in front of it! We got an electrician in here to fix that, because adding a new outlet doesn't mean you get to close another one up with drywall. Goodness. Strike 3 - they quoted a second part of the job (before we realized the poor quality of the initial work and lackluster response thereafter). Dynamic quoted 2.5x price and double the days to finish as several other contractors. Not efficient or cost effective.

John prides himself on his LinkedIn page of having excellent communication, leadership, and follow up skills, from his time in the Government overseas, but during the time that I have rented a property from him, he has demonstrated every time to not follow up or follow up many days later, if at all. What is advertised is not what you will be renting - as another poster mentioned - timely responses to get resolutions to fixes are not done. Items that should work at a property, often do not work and John has limited to no knowledge of any of the properties that he is renting, so any value add from his property management firm is basically useless. When John does communicate, his requests are last minute, with limited to almost no prior notice and any written communication are always cryptic and unclear - John never answers questions clearly or directly. Unfortunately, I believe that John at PMI is just simply a "slum lord" and is lazy. Unfortunately, I should have trusted my initial instincts - I did Google around, since I didn't get the right vibe from the property initially, and didn't get the right vibe when first working with John. Knowing what I've experienced, I would have never rented a property from PMI and would strongly advise anyone considering renting a property from John at PMI to look elsewhere or plan to set yourself up for a lot of issues, challenges and a sub par, property renting renting experience.
