As a prospective renter, my experience was very poor. The man who showed me the apartment I was…read moreinterested in was very nice, but didn't know much about the property or me (he was waiting in a different unit than the one I wanted to see because he got mixed up). That would have been fine. But what really annoyed me was the application process. The management is not familiar with more modern ways to verify employment and income (such as third party service) and insisted on unredacted pay stubs - which is much less secure. The interaction as we went back and forth was rude and reminded me of scammers trying to get one to divulge information urgently (because so many people are interested in the apartment!) at the cost of better judgement. In trying to get more information from me they cited their "policies" but being unable to articulate why their policy insists on having the information I didn't want to share (like my pre-tax deductions) This conversation was not with some mid-level employee but what seemed to be the owner. I should hope he could articulate the reasoning behind his own policy! To me, this company clearly orients themselves to customer service of property owners, not renters. Which fair enough, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. To the reader/renter: Don't let these people bully you!

I am very excited to lease with Rent the District. My roommates and I found a beautiful home on…read moretheir site, and from my very first correspondence with Hanna via phone, the communication has been flawless. Prompt responses to emails, quick answers to phone calls, transparent updates throughout the process, and even reassurances to call you back if they are tied up at the moment (and they actually call back as soon as they can!) Since my roommates and I are all out of town at the moment, and unable to tour the property in person prior to signing the lease agreement, Hanna assured me that her assistant Johnny would send me a video tour the following day. And sure enough, the next day - Johnny had a detailed video tour of the home in my inbox. Any question I had about the property, Johnny was able to answer. We so look forward to working with Hanna and her team during the duration of our lease agreement. If the last week is any indication of how our experiences will be as Rent the District tenants, I very much look forward to staying at this property. Hanna and Johnny were both very friendly, and professional. I will recommend Rent the District to any of my friends who look to rent or have property management services in DC. Thank you again!

A recent example: my AC went out on a Saturday during the brutal heat wave (110 heat index).

We used First Impression Properties for a few years to manage a house rental in Hyattsville and a…read morecondo rental in College Park. We were very impressed by them. They are very professional, veteran and minority owned and we had zero problems with them. Their rates came in cheaper than other property management companies as well. We didn't really have any major issues, but all minor ones were addressed promptly and they communicated well. If you're looking for a local property management company, I'd highly recommend them.

May have been a competent company at one point, but certainly no longer. In the 18 months we…read moreworked with Ed, his company mismanaged the lead inspection process (costing us thousands), mistakenly charged us for maintenance and repair that was the tenant's responsibility, failed to coordinate with our HVAC company on maintenance and payment, failed to remit monthly payment for the correct amount due, and failed to coordinate and communicate with me regarding the renewal process for the tenants. I would avoid.

I've been using Edward as a property manager since July 2020 (i've used 4 different firms over the…read morepast 15 years). I found him after interviewing about 9 firms, and then went with him after speaking with 5 of his references that he provided. He was very transparent when I first connected him and he would quickly answer questions about his management style, company and staffing profile. Perhaps the worst part about Edward is that its hard to find anything negative about him (LOL). He's just the most even keeled person I've ever dealt with... He deals with everything in a calm, paced manner. He's definitely not pushy, and treats everyone with respect, and has the gray matter to anticipate and work through problems before embers turn into flames (and we've had many embers thrown at us over the years, so he's battle tested at this stage in my eyes). One example: a few years back, the unit he was managing for us had a heating issue. The parts were on back order (early pandemic related shortage), and without asking, he went through multiple hoops to try to procure the parts needed, and then checked the weather report and because of an upcoming temperature drop he went ahead and provided backup heating device to the tenant to head-off a potential heating emergency before it happens. Lets roll the clock forward: While your mileage may vary, for me, I have had several documented occasions when I sent him an email near midnight and he responds within 3 or 4 minutes afterwards. I think one time I sent him an email way later than that which was meant for the next day, and he immediately responded. IIRC, I scolded him slightly for not prioritizing sleep over a low priority email from me LOL... but that's just how he's wired. His demeanor also extends to how he hires his staff. Again, the people he's brought on seem very even keeled and are active listeners. Also, it appears he's scaling his company in a methodical fashion. When I first spoke to him 5 years ago, I think he had about 200 properties they were managing. I know he's grown beyond this, but I haven't felt any difference in the orchestration of the work. This was a huge problem for me with a previous firm where as they grew, the wheels came off. Also, with his being a registered agent in Maryland, I'm already set on using him if we hit the market for anything. He's also served as an honest sounding board a few times we considered moving on something.

Our HOA was managed by Metropolis from November 2017 to April 2026. I became a resident in 2021…read more During this time, there were concerns about a potential conflict of interest involving the former HOA President and Metropolis owners. For a period, the former HOA President operated without broader Board involvement. Work was authorized and completed without documented community awareness, competitive bids, or formal approval. In 2023, payments exceeding $12,000 were made to the former HOA President for work performed; requests for prior invoices were not fulfilled. There was also a direct payment to owner, Smita Pai, exceeding $4,000; Metropolis has refused to provide an explanation of services provided for this invoice. Requests for the independent auditor's identity, engagement letter, and audit findings were not completed until legal counsel became involved. The association has since initiated a forensic audit to review financial management and use of funds. In 2026, the HOA provided notice to terminate the contract in accordance with Virginia Code 55.1-1837 (60-day notice). Metropolis did not accept this timeline. A complaint has been filed with the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) and is currently under review. DPOR also indicated the company is operating under the name MCM, LLC. Additional issues during the management period included an expired DPOR license, inaccuracies in financial records, limited responsiveness, lack of on-site support, restricted access to the management portal despite repeated requests, and inconsistent enforcement of community policies. I will update this review once we receive the results of our forensic audit, but in summary: Please save yourself, your fellow Board Members and your community from Metropolis. Working with Metropolis will result in losing the respect and trust of your community, as well as your hard earned money.
