I want to say a huge thank you to Adrian who did not hesitate to help me today. I love living at Georgetown for the sense of community, beautiful grounds and REA's commitment of making the residents feel our apartments feel like a home. Thank you Adrian

There may be some better associates employed by REA but I had the misfortune of dealing with the worst. He was unmotivated, dishonest, oily, and greedy. You'd be wise to do business elsewhere.

This is going to be a long one, so buckle up kiddos. I’ve been renting under this company for a little over three years and at first it was tolerable but I quickly realized that it was all continuously going downhill. The quality vs price of the condos I am in doesn’t match up at all- black mold, caving ceilings, leaks- you name it. We were forced to move suddenly and so we had no choice but to take what was available- but we were never shown that property and when we asked we were not allowed to see due to them “preparing” it. What we got, after that (for an increased price as well) Drooping ceilings, water damage and mold that had been painted over, carpet that had paint on it in many areas, holes in the walls ( the shelf in my closet actually collapsed due to the hole they never repaired ) The heat went out the first night, we tried to be understanding but turns out the wiring had caught fire but there was no alarm in the apartment so we got lucky that it went out on its own. The beginning of summer I reported issues with the ac over and over- for two months I was ignored or told it was fine. It was hitting 90+ inside on days where it was 75-80 outside. For two months we were left without AC despite the repair company sending an estimate on replacement the same day they came to examine it- I had to call the company myself to find out that the manager here never even responded to the estimate. It was weeks later that we learned this. They then continued to tell me that we could discuss reimbursement for the 200+ dollar portable ac I had to buy as they said they could not move us anywhere or cover a hotel, but since June 17th I never got another response or call about this despite multiple attempts to contact them. That’s only part of the issue- we moved into an apartment that had roaches and gnats, and they no longer have exterminators come to any of the buildings here. There are roaches literally everywhere. If you step outside at night you’ll find at minimum 5-6 by the doors. Originally we wanted to renew our lease before moving upstairs, but when we asked about setting that up we were ignored for two, almost three months. We were forced into a month to month lease with no communication despite our efforts to reach them, even when there was an active manager working at this complex. The health department literally threatened them and that’s the only reason the roof got repaired- the mold is still here. Black mold will literally grow on your front door- it’s everywhere here. So basically, if roach infestations, black mold and being ignored by the workers sounds like fun or something you’d enjoy, definitely hit them up. Otherwise, run and go literally anywhere else.
