Can the owner please contact me. As a recent property management client, I have had difficulty getting any response to emails to rentals@ejf, maintenance@ejf, mj@ejf no matter how urgency.

This review is for one of EJF's property managers, Jamie Glassman. He has been responsive, professional, and knowledgeable during all of my interactions with him. I am so sad to see him leave when our building transitions to new management in 2022. In early 2020, Jamie worked swiftly to trouble shoot a bathtub faucet issue on a high floor unit that resulted in a leakage and drywall damage impacting several units below it. He coordinated repairs to my unit within the following week. More recently, in mid-November 2021 my unit sustained considerable water damage to the ceiling, air vent

Avoid EJF at all costs! The absolute worst- unresponsive and unprofessional. I reached out to my building's manager, Natasha Weaver multiple times about multiple issues that have been going on for months including package theft. Because I never heard back, I called and spoke with Alex who said she would look into it and follow up. That was over 3 weeks ago. When I was finally able to connect with Natasha, she said my emails ended up in her spam folder even though we have talked in the past. I mentioned that I reached out other ways and spoke with several people in addition to emailing

I lived at 1390 V St for 5 years and James Stuart of EJF must have been the WORST Property Manager in DC. Comcast would have fired him for being too non-responsive and the DMV would not hire him for having too poor of customer service skills. He barely responded to problems and when he did, he would spend more effort trying to tell you that an issue was Not his problem than it would've taken to just fix it. He tried to convince me for months there was a secret, middle-of-the-night, underground construction project across the street rather than just fixing a vibrating pipe in our hallway
