Office staff and broker were rude and made disparaging remarks towards us. Lisa Seifred would yell and hang up phone. Kit Hale sent hateful email disparaging us. They canceled listing with no legitimate reason. Mr. Hale did not forward in a timely manner a signed copy of cancelation of listing. We had to call a few times before receiving it. It was preventing us from hiring another realtor. They made an extremely hard time more stressful than it was. Would not recommend MKB or Leah Hedrick. She did not advocate for us, her clients

I would not recommend this firm at all. My experience was unnecessarily stressful and unproductive.read more

They are a staple in the Roanoke Valley and have one of the finest reputations in the area, which is well deserved.

The first week October 2019 I found that my lease had been transferred to MKB when I placed a…read moremaintenance request. I didn't get my "welcome letter" or a response to my maintenance request from them until a couple weeks later. When I did get the request placed, I had to call them to find out that the key they had didn't work, and they asked me about getting a replacement. Thankfully I didn't have any more maintenance requests after that was finally taken care of. I gave my notice to vacate 3/1/20, and was told to notify Crystal if I would like to be present for the move-out inspection. I did so, and after two weeks of trying to contact her I got a response stating that due to COVID-19 I could not be present. (I could not find any rules regarding this; it would have been a meeting of two people and I had stated I would wear a mask.) Towards the end of the lease the property I was renting was put up for sale. MKB notified me whenever a realtor was scheduled to enter the unit. However, one afternoon at work I received a voicemail from Amanda accusing me of changing the locks because a realtor had trouble getting in. (screenshot of the voicemail transcription is attached) When I called back I got a non-apology of "sorry that offended you".  During quarantine I advised MKB that my at-risk fiance was working from home. Despite their closed office and their hesitance to give me a date for move-out inspection, they were fine sending realtors and prospective buyers to the occupied unit. Amanda generously told me I could open a window while other people were present. Two months after giving notice I received a date for the inspection. We were to meet at the property at 3:00, but Crystal didn't show up until 3:40. The return deposit check arrived within time frame, at least. My experience with MKB was a huge stress and their staff is highly unprofessional. Don't rent from them if you can help it.

They don't do anything when you ask them to please remind the other tenants in the house to take down the trash, or pick up their dogs poop in our shared yard, it's mildly infuriating, but that's not the reason I'm writing this review. Last winter there was a mice issue, a man from LRG and the exterminator came out and set poison out. LRG said they would coordinate with the exterminator to come back to collect the poison, I never heard anything back. This kinda annoyed me, but I was like whatever I can get rid of this poison food crap myself. Fast forward to now, I stepped into a piece of rotted wood by the wall in our bedroom. This was the same time we found black mold in our A/C unit in our bedroom so I had them come out for both at the same time. They cleaned our A/C unit and cut out the wall(wall was rotting too), sprayed it with bleach and covered it with painters plastic, and that was it(April 10). Austin Jones contacted me (April 11) and said that he would keep us in the loop with everything going on, and ONCE AGAIN, I never heard anything. I sent a message(May 22) quite frustrated, because there is a hole in my wall and rotting floor in the room where my infant sleeps, so this is a big issue to me. Never got a response and I'm posting this review today (May 30).

This is about as much as I am going to write as this is about to be a legal issue soon. My wife and I have already contacted the DPOR on Gwen and Caldwell Banker in addition to hiring an attorney. Just be very careful when working with her as she is very personable but manipulative. She does not appear follow many of the ethics and morales realtors are required to follow...and will mislead and lie to her clients so she may fulfill her agendas and pockets....My wife and I do not recommend her.
