I just finished purchasing my first home and couldn't wait to write a review on the exemplary…read moreservice I received from Devontae. We were acquainted before my purchase and even though I had not decided on my broker, he was always available for useful insight and best practices in the home buying process. When I eventually did decide to purchase, I couldn't imagine anyone else I would have represent and guide me through the complicated process of buying my home. From the onset, Devontae was able to provide us a pre-approval and various strategies that best addressed my financial needs. He provided patience and clarity, guiding me through the complicated steps in what turned out to be a year long process. He assisted me in building my credit, qualifying for better rates, and industry referrals. He was highly responsive, readily available, and constantly took the initiative. My wife and I were always informed and prepared throughout the process, thanks to Devontae's yeoman's work. If given an opportunity to work with him, I strongly suggest you have a chat with him as I highly recommend his services. I am thankful for my relationship with Devontae as not only my mortgage broker but as a friend throughout the murky and daunting process of buying a home.

Well the day finally came when The Queen made her move to get her own place. The building that she…read morewas interested in was literally down the street from us, so brand spanking new and no need for a moving truck. The property is managed by Root Property Group and I have to say the entire experience, from viewing the units to moving in was a great experience. The agent that we met with (Mark) was very pleasant as he showed us around the property to view the different layouts of the units. He was very responsive and accommodating as there was another woman doing a virtual tour along with us. Mark was great, showing us around as well as answering the questions. After viewing the unit that The Queen actually ended up moving into, she told Mark she was interested in submitting an application that day. While we were leaving soon for Mexico, The Queen did not want to wait and asked Mark if he could send it to her while in Mexico. Mark responded immediately and even answered questions while we were in Mexico. On moving day, The Queen and I went to the property office to get the keys and such to move in. The folks in the office were friendly and thorough, explaining the move in process, showing the assigned parking spaces, etc. After The Queen moved in, there were a few things in the unit that needed attending to, and the management team was responsive and got the issues fixed. To date, whenever The Queen has had any questions, Root has been responsive. The one thing all of us love about the way they are managing the building is that they have security all over the place. Entry into the building requires a FOB and/or app to get in, as well as getting into the elevator, the mailroom and garage. There are also cameras in the hallways. The Queen and I are very happy with the way Root has been responding to her inquiries as well as mine.

This place has gone downhill so fast, it's astounding. Had great service for years until end of…read more2021. Would avoid renting from them until they get their act together again - if that's even possible. Honestly, would have given a glowing review up until winter of last year and called them a "family-feeling" management company; not sure what happened to turn them into yet another landlord/property management company trying to squeeze every last dollar out of their tenants and their tenancy. Broken washer/dryer that had notice put in the second week of January did not get replaced until the last week of April. After repeated communication, we were ghosted about the issue only to find out that our property manager had left and we had a new person. Think that would be something the tenants should be aware of! I could write a whole novel on how abysmal their service was with the washer/dryer situation; everything from poor communication to the installers arriving at our apartment at 7am on a weekday with no notice from the management company to both tenants to the installers having to do the whole thing again (7:30am the next day, still with no warning, but, hey, extra half an hour!) because Root ordered the wrong washer/dryer. Currently, the new appliances don't even fit the space and the accordion door had to be removed to "fit" it. Unsurprisingly, the doors are still sitting in our apartment since Root has not removed them. The company did the absolute bare minimum to "make it up to us" for all of the inconvenience. On top of this, after giving our Notice to Vacate we continued to receive messages that bordered on harassment via email and text about renewing our lease and how a new lease would be sent over when it was abundantly clear we were not reupping. Icing on the cake is being told that our place is too "cluttered" for showings when all we're trying to do is move, clear out every nook and cranny of our stuff, and get as far away from Root as possible. I genuinely am astounded at their reaction to what a living space in the middle of a move looked like. Though the leasing agent (who showed up after his agreed upon time and with no advance warning of being late) continued to insist it was "all transactional" and "just business," I'm deeply offended at how he continued to mention cleaning the place to look presentable for Root and their needs while his tone cast aspersions and disparagement for what is a situational living arrangement. None of this is touching, either, on the back stairwell that took months to fix and was a legitimate safety hazard. Every interaction with them this past year has been heavily about what is best for Root and the Root property. Utterly astounding that the property manager, when speaking to us about the washer/dryer situation, mentioned how great the washer/dryer was and that it's one that will be good for a long time. That might have been helpful had we not had it installed a few weeks before preparing to leave the place. We offered to break the lease and/or leave early due to moving into a new property, but Root would rather get their money and continue to bombard us with asinine emails and requests. I cannot fathom any other reason than them just wanting to get their rent money that they would not take us up on leaving early. Considering it would have been a whole month where they could take their staging photos - which the property manager, when asked, mentioned they did not have any previous on file simply because he didn't know why - and fix their broken washer/dryer while doing any other updates to the space they might have felt were necessary (the kitchen appliances are outdated as well, so good luck to whomever has to wait four+ months to get them fixed when they inevitably die), it seems like a no-brainer. We would not have gone through any of this hassle, not be leaving with an extremely sour taste in our mouths about Root, and this review would have gone differently. I'm just amazed at how a company that I had such positive and tenant-first interactions with when I moved in two years ago (and heard the same from my boyfriend about his four years before that) has become a standard leasing company interested in what is best for their property, which itself is debatable. I cannot stress how happy I will be to be done with them. One positive from all of this is the urgency with which it's inspired us to move out.

But through it all every commitment she ever made was kept, and followed through in a timely and efficient manner. I'll be sending her every referral I can muster up. Purchasing a home can be stressful and if you want someone to help alleviate that stress then I highly recommend Soraya Rendon at Neighborhood Loans.
