    In the Fall of 2017, I decided to move one of my rental properties from a large real estate…read moremanagement company to this small one. It was a great move on my part. The large company still has one property of mine , but when that tenant departs I will move that as well. I cannot emphasize enough the difference between the prior management and Snap property management. He worked with me side by side to prepare this property with a discerning keen eye and extremely fair to all involved. He is honest in every way and capable. I read a review that called him vindictive.. That is crazy. I think the author of that review is vindictive. Snap was probably holding him/ her accountable which is his job when it is warranted. People often blame. It is always someone else's fault. Snap is a fair referee.. quite objective. I saw him in action and he passed all my tests. He chooses his workman carefully and makes sure everything is fair and accomplished. He was always ready to pop over if needed. My property looks tip top. My upgrades were well executed. He found a good tenant in the worst possible month. I was hesitant at first seeing a negative review and questioned him upfront before we started. I thought his side of the story was reasonable and plausible.. always two sides you know.. so I took a chance. I am thrilled that I did. He has been an enormous help and I recommend this company without any hesitation. If you own a property and live out of the area or if you no longer want to manage it yourself, this is a better choice than a huge realty .

    I think this might be a scam. I tried to inquire about a listing several times and called. it says…read morethe is full and I even had a realtor. Try to reach out and said that there is no Scott Meyers on the registry

    This place is owned by Community Housing Partners out of Christiansburg, VA. If I could put a -250…read morerating I would! Yorktown Square Apartments are the scummiest, roach infested, black mold growing, poorest manage, trashiest (littered), broken water pipe, your made to feel like you're not welcome in the office (your invading Annie's private feeding den). I've lived here for over a year, after reporting issues on my move in inspection, they haven't been addressed, nor is there a work order "in the system"! I've had to call the housing inspector, yet things still haven't been fixed. I was granted the reasonable accommodation for a portable washer and dryer, yet I still haven't received verification in black and white yet! the Regional Manager has been promising for 3 months now to send me the "lease addendum" to me yet nothing has been receive! I can't bring it on property until it is signed. If I do, I risk being threatened with eviction again. I've been talking till I'm blue in the face about my refrigerator and freezer not sealing right and food thawing out for over a year now and I finally talked to the head maintenance John today and he told me that there's work order "in the system" yet. This is after receiving an email from the Regional Manager saying it would be taken care a priority for he following day!!! I had to show John the email. He came back to get information, because the "temp"manager and Annie told him to put in the work order himself!!! Oh now I get it!!!! All the times I would go to the office and speak to Annie, she would write it on a post it note and NEVER put it in the system!! How CONVENIENT!! There are people living here that have got all kind of respiratory infections due to the mold breeding in the apartments! Management harrassed and inspected my apartment relentlessly after having to have emergency back surgery and was unable to finish moving in. I asked for help from the "Community Resources Person" for help with my service animal walks and assistance with getting my apartment set up. She said she'd get me help, but I had to sign a release of information. NOPE no help with my dog! Then a barrage of inspections usually once every 2 week. Well, hopefully inspections are over with and I passed the last one!! Now with that being said, the held a candle close to my feet for so long and kept me under such duress, where is my ability to hold a candle to their feet to get their work done? I can't blame maintenance! Maintenance can only work on what's "in the system"! Office tells maintenance to put in the work order himself!! Can't expect Tammy the Regional Manager to do it, it been 3 days that she said it was a priority for the following mornin. BEWARE AND STAY CLEAR OF YORKTOWN SQUARE II AND RIVERMEADE APARTMENTS, for you HEALTH and SANITY!!

    Seaford Transfer

    (15 reviews)

    When 3,000 pounds = 8,000 pounds…read more We're writing this to educate people who need to hire a mover. We wish we knew then -- before we hired Seaford Transfer of York County, Va., to move us from Newport News, Va., to Savannah, Ga. -- what we know now. As we get started, it's important to know that we decided to sell or give away the vast majority of our furniture before we moved to Savannah. Here's what we took: five chairs, a large dresser, a king-size bed and mattress and box spring, a large coffee table, an end table, a hall table, an outdoor bench, a hope chest, about 25 medium-size boxes, a kayak, a storage trunk, a large piece of artwork, an antique sewing machine, a bicycle, several rugs, a ladder and two outdoor sculptures. If we're leaving anything out, it was inconsequential. A Seaford Transfer employee, Brittany Ellis, came to our house to estimate the weight of our things, and I pointed out what we were taking to Savannah. She estimated the weight of our things at 8,000 pounds. We were ignorant of the process, so we assumed that estimate was accurate. Between the time when we received that estimate and the day when our things were actually moved, two other Seaford Transfer employees who saw our things told us they weighed about 3,000 pounds. We made a mental note of that, but we didn't ask about the discrepancy for two reasons: 1) Our house sold in three days, and we had to vacate it quickly, and we were stuck with Seaford Transfer; and 2) We assumed the company would do the right thing -- recognize the massive discrepancy and issue a reasonable refund. The other thing we didn't do before our move date was determine about what our belongings weighed. After the move, we learned from multiple websites that moving companies sometimes estimate 1,000 pounds per room, and sometimes they estimate between 10,000 and 12,000 pounds for a four-bedroom house. We had a four-bedroom house with 10 rooms, not including bathrooms, but we were taking the equivalent of only two rooms of furniture (one partial bedroom set and five chairs) and a lot of boxes. That explains why the two other Seaford Transfer employees came up with 3,000 pounds. After the move, we called Reggie Moore, the son of the owners, and explained the situation. He said he would review the paperwork, talk with the employees and get back to me in about a week. He never did. A couple of weeks after we spoke, we called him four days in a row. He never returned any of those calls, so we emailed his mother, Kathy Moore, the president and owner of Seaford Transfer, who replied that she would talk with Ms. Ellis and get back to us. After doing so, her reply -- and I'm paraphrasing was this: After you signed the estimate, it became binding, and it really didn't matter if we moved more or less than what we estimated. She added -- and I'm quoting: "We have been in business since 1986, and I can assure you that we have NEVER overestimated a move to pad our pockets." It's one thing to say that, but how do you explain the discrepancy between what Ms. Ellis estimated and what the other Seaford Employees employees and multiple websites said? Reggie Moore didn't want to do that, and neither did Kathy Moore. We made our share of mistakes, and now we feel an obligation to share with others the lessons we learned: 1) Give yourself enough time before you have to vacate your house to get three estimates. 2) Do some research and know beforehand approximately how many pounds of stuff you need moved. 3) Never assume a company is going to admit a mistake and do the right thing, especially after they have your check. Seaford Transfer didn't, and chances are the company you hire probably won't either. Best of luck, Mark & Jayne Di Vincenzo

They arrived a few minutes early and used extreme caution while loading and unloading. They were efficient and finished early even after putting my furniture back together. I did not experience any damage to my contents or to my home. I highly recommend this Company if you are looking for reliable, quality and efficient movers! I cannot thank the team enough for making my move so stress free!

Dishonest, False Advertisement, Misleading, Deceptive, Distorts the qualifications of their movers (completely inept), took twice as long as estimated and didn't fulfill want was promised to get me to agree to hiring them. Then shove a particular spots highlighted on the contract in front of you and says needs signatures and initials before getting started. Already arriving late and smelling of marijuana. Should have been the clue, being in a pickle because I was counting on professional movers to move my heavier items, I didn't get any friends to help. My family moved the air hockey table, 6 chairs and all the boxes like. Leaving the movers about 30 items and it still took 3hr 40 min for them just to get out of the 1st house. That day I called Mark at Kenway, informing him of my displeasure about the progress. He called Markeif (supervisor) and he call me. I informed him the same, not happy, employees smell like a reggae concert. We talked multiple time about the unskillfulness of the movers. They broke the leg off my dresser within 20 minutes of starting. USDOT# - 2054813, MC# MC-830468 This is the estimate House to House: 4 beds, 7 dressers, couch, 2 recliners, 2 tables/12 chairs, W/D, refrigerator, air hockey table Moving Date: Saturday, 8/26/23 Estimated Arrival Time: 9:00am - 11:00am You will get a call the day of your move when the movers are on their way. Please answer any unknown numbers the day of your move as it could be your moving team attempting to contact you. Pricing Details - 3 Professional Movers & 1 Truck: $159.00/per hour for 2 Movers (3 Hour Minimum)** $278.00 one-time travel fee** $159.00 one hour labor return trip Kenway Moving & Storage is fully Licensed and Insured! * Your team of professional movers will disassemble and reassemble items such as: headboards, bed frames, (excludes cribs) etc. * We only employ professional full-time specialists, no day laborers. * We begin billing hourly labor rate after the staff begin moving at your first location. We conclude billing the hourly labor rate at your final location when the last item is delivered and you are satisfied. Then I called back to add 75 boxes that needed to be moved. Beth Miller resent the new estimate. Bring the new total to 5hr labor, totaling $1228.oo. Final cost $1908.50, a lot of money for inept workers; damaging 2 beds, 3 dressers, Washer & Dryer and Dryer pedestal and my new homes front door and wall going upstairs. Long story short, the pics tell a better story. The just left the house before everything was put reassembled or put in its proper place, while I was on the phone with Verizon. No attempt to get my attention just left. Talked with Markeif again, the conversation him informing me to file a complaint and insurance claim. Still dealing with CJ - (248) 836-8020. Avoid my current headache, you could get hirer high school and have less damage to you furniture and home. They won't acknowledge the movers are incompetent and keep saying you signed the contract. Yes, with the expectations they employee professional movers as advertised and promised in the estimate and website. STAY AWAY!!
