Tom Rotella was my property manager for over two years. He is friendly and personable and quite…read moreknowledgeable about the VT rental market. During the two years that Tom worked for me, I was mostly satisfied with his work. Our phone communication was always good; his email responsiveness, however, was not always the best. However, after my recent experience with him, which resulted in the termination of our working relationship, I must say I have come to question his judgement, integrity as well as accountability. Problems arose when I decided to raise the rent in one of my units this past summer and asked Tom to notify the tenants in spring. For months he assured me that everything was fine, the tenants had been notified and, when renewal time came, a new lease had been signed. However, after we failed to collect the new rent amount for several months in a row, I contacted my tenants, at which point it became clear that Tom had never pursued the lease renewal. Tom Rotella has let me down in a big way by failing to have my tenants sign an agreed upon lease renewal with a rent increase, which resulted in their tenancy becoming month-to-month as well as hundreds of dollars in lost revenue. Once I confronted him with the evidence and asked to see the lease, he stopped responding altogether. I wrote Tom one last email, giving him a chance to clarify and possibly rectify the situation. He has not responded to my email to this day. I therefore cannot recommend Tom Rotella to anyone looking for a reliable and dependable property manager.

After an extremely negative situation with another firm that I think is now out of business, I was referred to Tom, who got my property back on track and made it profitable for the very first time. He is efficient, courteous, professional and maybe most importantly, ACCOUNTABLE. If you're looking to take care of your tenants and get the hassle of owning rental property off your back, call Tom.

Pete and Joe have helped us immensely in the process of attempting to purchase a home in the Stowe…read morearea. When we hit a snag with the property, Pete was the sole voice of reason, and our only true advocate. Even though this transaction did not happen, Pete protected us and provided solid advice all along the way. This is a characteristic you don't find often in real estate agents, or at least you really hope to find it in your agent- someone that is really looking after your best interests even if it means the transaction is not going to work out. Pete and Joe are playing the long game - they know that true care for their clients will lead to consistent and future business. We are excited to continue to work with them. High marks!! Highly recommended. Look no further for an agent who will work on your behalf!

The Kelly Realty Group was tireless in their effort to ensure my wife and I ended up in the right…read morehome at the right price. Back in 2014 my wife and I began exploring homes in the greater Stowe area and reflecting back, it was a stroke of good fortune that we called Pete Kelly. Whether it was life events such our first child, irregular home inspection findings or unpredictable sellers; Pete and his father Joe never showed fatigue and never tried to rush us into anything. At times I had to scratch my head and wonder how such dedication could be profitable but Pete and Joe work on the "client first" principle placing profits second to people. Both Pete and Joe bring a rare combination of realty experience, business sense and good values to the table. In fact, as late as summer of 2016 they openly advised us to pass on a home we were enthusiastic about and raised some important considerations we were not seeing. Remember, this is over a year-and-a-half of showings, inspections, travel and leg-work after seeing dozens of homes. A lesser realtor would have been inclined to just get us into a home and move on. Right up to the end, Pete and Joe did not waver in their commitment to helping us buy a home that best met our specific criteria within our budget. Eventually we did find the right home and we instantly knew it was worth the effort and can see now that Pete and Joe helped us avoid some major pitfalls. As a bonus, the house even appraised for more than what we paid! Pete and Joe were a pleasure to work with and they know the greater Stowe community as well as the community knows them. Whether it was recommending a lender, a restaurant, car services, a handyman or hot tub; the invaluable help went far beyond what could be expected of a realtor. I would be more than happy to elaborate on our experience with The Kelly Realty Group with anyone who is serious about finding the right home at the right price.

2020 brought many challenges, but working with Tanner and Element Real Estate to buy our very first…read morehome was such a bright spot. We can't recommend Tanner highly enough. In terms of local real estate offerings, he is savvy, honest, and incredibly well informed. From day one, Tanner's responsiveness was astounding, whether to the seller's requests, or our one million questions. Despite our inexperience with the housing market and purchase process, it always felt like we were in the driver's seat...with an incredibly helpful co-pilot. It's also worth noting that he's a very funny and enjoyable person to be around! By no fault of Tanner or Element, our purchase process brought some substantial and unusual hurdles. With calm and effective troubleshooting, Tanner handled everything with grace and efficiency. He firmly fought for our best interests throughout. We learned after the fact that some issues were even handled in the background so we didn't have to stress. Both during the process and in the time since, we've said numerous times how fortunate we felt to have such a friendly, talented and supportive team. Such a positive experience! Thank you Tanner. We'll sing your praises for years to come.

Then on-hold music which I hung up on after a minute. So I can't say I've done business with these folks, but I can say it's kinda sad when a business is "open" only about 8 hours a week and can't even get their phone system to handle voicemail messages.

The septic work appears to be in good standing except that the cable line was cut and then reburried below grade without a word of warning. My biggest problem is that they removed a surf board and a custom framed photograph that hung above the mantle of the fire place from the residence without permission. When they were contacted about the missing property they dragged their feet in replying. I finally had to personally confront the owner, AJ Shinner. He said: "Oh, an employee probably took them by accident and we've had some lawn sales since then and, well, I can t find it..." Beware, this company is not accountable for its actions and is not willing to accept responsibility for the errors and/or misbehavior of its employees.
