Nomadic Real Estate

Honestly this was an awful experience trying to move into a building that they represent. They changed the plans to give us the keys the day before move in and then said we may not be able to move in the day that was the start date on the lease we signed. Not helpful in trying to resolve the issue and waited until the day before move in to even mention or let us know the plans were changing. This was a horrid experience that could have been a massive disaster and waste of money on paying two rents because they wouldn't let us move in.

Shockingly dishonest company. Rent was weeks late multiple times. Proper lead paint and rental licensing paperwork was never filed, leaving us (the owners) liable. Very poorly executed maintenance. Alleged repairs made without owner’s consent. All in all working with Nomadic was an absolute disaster.

I was a prospective tenant and have found Nomadic a terrible company to deal with. We scheduled an appointment to see a location and despite their website claiming "Transparency through strong communication," they did not inform us in advance that the house was already in the process of being leased to another tenant. Also, their agent was woefully unprepared to discuss anything about the house. The agent even gave us information that was contradictory with what the ad said. I have no idea how this company has so many stars.

Our experience with this company was a series of disappointments. They had several months to rent out our house and couldn't find anyone. I would have given them more time to try, but they were so unresponsive and the house looked so bad under their care, that I terminated the contract. I was out of town for a while, and when I got back, I saw that they hadn't mowed the lawn for well over a month. I called them to mow it- they promised they would. A few weeks later I came back and it STILL wasn't mowed. It was a meadow. My neighbor felt bad so he mowed it for me. They didn't put out the trash for collection after cleaning the house, even though I reminded them, so it just sat outside in the front. Again, my neighbors had to take care of it. I don't think a house with an unmowed lawn and garbage sitting outside is "market ready." I happened to be present for one showing of my house. The agent was late, leaving me standing there with the prospective renters for a good amount of time. She didn't really apologize, and blamed traffic. She seemed more intent on showing them all of the other properties that Nomadic had on its site, and said it was "like Tinder," if you don't like this house, just swipe right, we've got others. There was a large tree that my neighbor told me was dead and branches were falling on his property, and it might be in danger of falling. I had to remind them several times over a series of weeks to send out an arborist to look at it. After I terminated my contract with them, they billed me for a lead inspection that had been done two months earlier, and they didn't tell me they had done. They never sent me the results until I got the bill ($450) and asked why they hadn't sent it. Two things went well-- they did a good job cleaning the house, and the pictures they put on Zillow were good. As far as I know, they didn't do anything to list the property other than put it on Zillow and other listing services.

As a 3 year client with Nomadic Real Estate, I could not be more pleased. I used Nomadic Real Estate for the past three years, I have rented out my home through them. We had two separate sets of tenants. from their advertising campaigns, move in, maintenance support, to hand over, they were professional and responsive. While overseas, I received my monthly payments promptly. Given how quickly I was notified of work orders, they also were responsive to the tenants. I just received my property back today. They did a preliminary inspection earlier so there were no surprises for either the tenants or I. The tenants were given a chance to make repairs themselves. Nomadic is working with me over the next few days to finalize the very small repairs and touch ups needed. I would absolutely use Nomadic Real Estate again and am happy to recommend them to anyone. Thanks for taking care of my home while I was gone!

Nomadic is a well run professional service that is responsive and fair to all parties involved.

I had a HORRIBLE experience with Nomadic Property Management Company this year. Nomadic’s slogan is “peace of mind.” They do not live up to this and dealing with them is very stressful. I’ve used Nomadic for three years – the first year for property management services, the second year for finding a tenant and property management services and this year also for finding a tenant. Part of the reason I used Nomadic is that you are able to show your apt and if you locate your own tenant, they do not charge you a month’s rent. This year, Nomadic recommended I allow the current tenants to get out of their lease a month early. Joe recommended this because he said it would be a better time to find a tenant. I agreed, but wanted to make sure the tenants kept my apt nice so it would be easy to rent. Mary Kathryn said she did an inspection and did not find damage. So, I agreed to let the tenants break the lease and the apt. was advertised in July. Joe recommended the listing price. I agreed to his recommendation. I then also advertised the apt. I did a showing in mid-August and discovered how dirty and cramped the apt. looked. I was upset because it is very difficult to rent an apt. that does not look nice. I followed up with Nomadic. I think Nomadic may have also shown the apt. one time between July and August. I did more research on my own and discovered the market had changed so I agreed to lower the price a little. I also asked the property manager (Mary Kathryn )about a make-ready, underscoring that work would need to be done quickly, given the apt’s condition. Mary Kathryn told me not to worry and that make readys could be done in one day. I responded that was great because I was really busy and would not have time to do the work. So, I waited until the tenants moved out. Then, I wanted to go forward with painting and repairing the apt. It took several days for Mary Kathryn to get me initial quotes. I tentatively agreed, but noted that she needed to complete the move-out inspection before the work could be done – I needed documentation showing what damage the tenants did before fixing it. Mary Kathryn took about 10 days to do the move-out inspection. During that time, I decided I could not rely on Nomadic nor wait for them to arrange for someone to do the work, so I did everything myself. Exactly what I did not have time to do. Then, I asked about returning the security deposit. I was confused and thought I had to return the funds to the tenant. I asked Mary Kathryn and Ben and they gave me that address to mail a $2000 check to. I double checked my records and discovered that the funds were in Nomadic's escrow account, not my own. Nomadic should have told me this, instead of sending me an address to mail a check!! Then, it took them close to the full 45 days to return the deposit to the tenants. They did not return the funds for the damage to me until I followed up. At least they did wire me the money when I called them out on it. Finally, when I fired them, they asked to keep my business by providing mgmt services for 6%/mo and charging me 50% for finding a tenant. This was a horrible offer, as I already paid 6% (not 8%) and found that prospective tenant myself -- so again, they were trying to charge me an extra 50% as I was the person who found that tenant for myself!!! I would definitely not do business with Nomadic, nor recommend them to anyone.

I deal with many people in the Nomadic real Estate office almost every day. I typically deal mainly with Ray (property manager) but have on many occasions dealt with Ben and Joe, as well as Mary Katherine, and Mary Beth. Everyone has always been very pleasant and wonderful to work with. They all seem very eager to help their tenants of the managed properties quickly and efficiently. Ray has usually been able to answer questions right away and if not he has gone out of his way to find the correct answer in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend Nomadic if you are either looking for a property management company, or a tenant looking for a new place to call home.

We have been using Nomadic real estate for quite some time now. They are friendly, fast to respond and will do whatever they can to make their tenants and clients happy. They are always happy to go an extra mile for them, even working extra hours and on weekends just to make sure that immediate issues are put to rest. We have dealt with other property management companies before but we've come to trust Nomadic and highly recommend them to any person looking for a home to rent.
