Zac presented me with a anticipated revenue proposal, which seemed slightly unrealistic. But, he and Great Dwelling knocked it out of the park. He made the revenues promised, and then some. Great Dwellings has a standard formula for their properties, and I nit picked it and thought I knew best. I then went the self-managed route, thinking I could do at least as well as Great Dwellings. I did - but, with stress and time I could not afford. I came back to Zac and Great Dwellings and humbly asked them to consider my property again. Instead of the "I told you so", Zac and team were gracious and professional. I am back with Great Dwellings and have learned my lesson to let the pros be pros. While their revenue share and other fees may seem high at first, the ultimate financial results make up for it. And the peace of mind that my home is managed and cared for properly has no price tag. I highly recommend Great Dwellings.

First a rental when we were just getting married, our first home (buy and sell), our forever home (buy) and a vacation property as a getaway during COVID (buy and sell). Across this we experienced buyers' markets, sellers' markets, some truly wonderful buyers and sellers, and one difficult seller going through a hard time. Through it all, there was never a time that my wife or I could ever imagine a better shepherd to lead us through the difficult and convoluted process of home sales. She is truly a pros pro in every regard - examining the market, pricing the home, staging the home, negotiating a final price, and then the complex and legal process of closing. She is with you all the way guiding you and ensuring you find the right home for your family, negotiate the best price, employ proper risk mitigation steps during the contractual phase in regard to the home inspection and evaluation, and even address the occasional hiccup that occurs post purchase. She takes the stress out of the process by shouldering it for you. On our two home sales as an example, with Betsy guiding us we had multiple strong offers, WELL above asking, before buyers had even had a chance to get in and look at the home in person. It was all through the pre-marketing work she and her team do so well. I can't recommend Betsy strongly enough and wouldn't engage in a real estate transaction with any other agent.

Two full bedrooms, plenty of room to spread out, and it made a big difference not feeling cramped for a whole week. The full kitchen and separate living area came in handy, especially with kids, being able to cook, snack, and just relax without always going out was a plus. The location is hard to beat. You're right at National Harbor, so everything is walkable....restaurants, shops, the waterfront. It made the trip feel easy and low stress. I will say, while the suite is spacious and comfortable. They have made renovations but some areas could use a little updating. Things like the countertops and faucets felt a bit dated compared to everything else. Not a dealbreaker at all, just something you notice. There is a daily parking fee that guests are responsible for, $25 a day. Service was good overall, staff was friendly and check-in/check-out was smooth. All in all, I'd stay here again. Great for families, great location, and the extra space really makes the difference for a longer stay.

Seaport Properties took over the management of our townhouse from another company last spring,…read moreafter we've already been living here for a few years. It's sometimes tough to tell where the line is between issues with a property, issues with a landlord, and issues with a management company, but switching from one company to another when the property and the landlord haven't changed has given us an idea. We live in an area that has flooded multiple times in the last 2 years during those mega rains. Last year, when we had 3 feet of water in our basement (just like everyone else on our street), we had an insanely difficult time getting the previous company to send anyone out to even look at the situation, much less do anything to take care of it. TWO WEEKS LATER, the company's own 3 man maintenance crew came by to clean up, by using our own bleach. This year, under Seaport management, we have flooded twice, and both times they responded to us immediately. We had a plumber in within an hour, and REAL servpro professionals drying everything out within a day or two, even though one of those time the flooding was much less severe. We haven't bothered them much with too many maintenance requests, but when we have they've been pretty quick to send someone out and take care of the problem (not our previous experience). That being said, we still have a couple issues that aren't really being addressed, and it's tough to know whose fault those are. I've seen another review complaining about treatment while closing out of a lease, but I believe our neighbors (tenants of the same landlord and Seaport customers), who moved out early over frustration with the flooding issue, seemed to be able to get out of their lease pretty quickly without problems. And in our discussions with the company about how leaving might work they seemed pretty reasonable (fingers crossed). As with any rental, I would recommend thoroughly reading your lease before signing. In our case we're responsible for our own gutter cleaning, yard maintenance, pest control, etc. It's the same deal we had with the previous company, but I could see those items catching someone off guard. Finally, in our experience all communications with staff have been swift, professional, and polite.

What we appreciated most was their communication and collaborative spirit. We've worked with designers before who had no idea of what good customer service looks like, and we were delighted to have such an engaging and creative collaboration with these designers.

I got the owner himself, after just two rings, a guy, with more than 20 years experience, a human being. Heath Bourne listened to what I was looking for in a refi and within an hour sent me an email with three written estimates from different lenders, each with an interest rate significantly lower than what I'm paying now! I am a person who asks a lot of questions. This can test the patience of and even annoy some people (yes, I'm talking to you, mechanics and doctors!!). I was going to say my wife, but thought otherwise on social media. Anyway, I get it. Time is money. Tough customers take time. But Heath answered all of my questions with professional courtesy and patience through multiple phone calls, emails and requests for revised estimates that would drive most brokers nuts. No wonder my online research revealed Potomac Trust Mortgage has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau (https://www.bbb.org/us/va/alexandria/profile/mortgage-broker/potomac-trust-mortgage-llc-0241-142453140).

We met with Heath at PTM at the suggestion of our realtor. He was incredibly nice, incredibly helpful, and willing to answer any questions we had. We peppered him with questions via email before he had any idea whether we'd use them or not, and he answered every one of them thoroughly and promptly. When we had an offer accepted, one condition was that we close in three weeks. Within 24 hours of the offer being accepted, they had a lender for us, initial mortgage estimate documents, and a list of everything they needed. Heather walked us through everything, and was so responsive and prompt. We literally went from accepted offer to mortgage signed in about a week! (It also helps if you make sure you have all your documents ready to go from your end, and they will give you a list of what you need). Everything we did with PTM was electronic, so we weren't worried about running to the office to sign anything. They were accessible via email and phone, and even when we had what was probably a stupid question, they were happy to answer it. From the start, based on our research, we wanted to work with a broker rather than a bank directly, and if you are wanting to do the same, Potomac Trust Mortgage has got to be your go-to!

McNamara 3 reviews a minute ago NEW I've had an exceptionally positive experience renting an apartment at Manor House over the last two years and I would absolutely stay longer if I could. When I began my apartment search two years ago, I knew I wanted to live within a 10 min drive to the Pentagon and in a dog-friendly area so I started looking in the Arlington and Alexandria apartment communities. What I found were a lot of concrete high-rise apartments that felt austere and "rushed" in the construction and which all seemingly had a nightclub atmosphere within the building or immediately in the entry way; this was not for me or anything close to what I would want to come home to (even though I know home is wherever your dog is). I looked at about ten apartments before finding Manor House and then I knew right away this was where I wanted to live. Manor House is charming and cared for and elegant in a low-key way. Nestled in what feels like a private park, flowers and greenery abound and there are just three floors per building and only 7 or so apartments per floor. The effect of this is that the grounds and the complex provide a tranquil reprieve from the raucous hustle of standard DC area living. Additionally, the apartment is remarkably well-maintained both inside and out. I mentioned the park-like atmosphere: this is due to meticulous grounds-keepers that lay new sod and maintain beautiful flowers around every aspect of the property. Inside the common areas a daily housekeeping service comprised of some of the kindest people you'll ever meet around D.C. keeps these spaces immaculately clean (including right up to your front door). And then there's inside the apartments: From hardwood floors to ornate crown molding to custom built shelves, Manor House gets all the details right. I'll add to this that, when I walked into my apartment on the first day of my rental period, there was a large welcome basket that greeted me with a card signed by the management team alongside treats for my dog. . . Manor House understands that details make all of the difference. Of course, this quiet and immaculately maintained park-like apartment with hardwood floors and crown molding that gets the finer details and leaves gift baskets for me and my dog doesn't just happen. It's intentional and due to a combination of an extremely pro-active and responsive onsite management team (shout-out to Jeff, George, Latisha and now Loretta who have made living here so easy and comfortable) and attentive ownership who care about the comfort of their tenants and the quality of their property.
