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

The absolute worst management company. Terrible. I think we've emailed them at least a dozen times with no response. Do not use them.
When we have gotten responses, EJF includes the bare minimum information or doesn't answer the question you asked. You have a service request? Forget about it.
Sunny is our "portfolio manager." Equally terrible, and equally unresponsive. What does she do all day? Not her job. I've never been so frustrated.

I'm updating this review on June 6th with a reply to an inboxed message that I received from EJF and I will discuss my feelings about the company's dispute resolution process.
I chose the name John Doe to be able to retain anonymity and to protect my identity and privacy.
As you know, we have spoken since you made this response to my comment on the phone and through email. You were able to discover my identity because I filed a complaint about this issue with EJF and through that you were able to locate contact information which enabled us to have a dialogue regarding how EJF planned

Called to request a new FOB for building entry. Was told that the FOB might not be ready for 48 hrs. I probably don't need to write more than that, but consider this, its a FOB they have many of in the office and takes 2 minutes to program. In the past 20 years I've had this occur previously with EJF, Bernstein, Columbia Property Mgmt, etc. In every other previous situation I've been told to come by in a half hour or an hour. At the moment there are three people in their office, all capable of taking the 2 minutes it takes to program the FOB.
When I asked why the delay, I was told

I was given help by Yoko today to establish an ACH debit for my payment and she was fabulous! She is friendly, totally professional and was so willing to help that she stayed on the phone and walked me through the entire process. Thanks for making this new customer very happy. I look forward to doing business with you again.

Received a last minute email EOD Friday, March 5, 2021 that someone was coming by on Monday, March 8th to do an inspection of the unit during a open window of time.
I immediately replied back asking to move it as that day was my birthday. I got no response and this is clearly in violation of DC Law.
Fast forward to today, the 8th. The person doing the inspection showed up--knocked and immediately started to open the door without announcing themselves. Again, I don't live in a managed apartment building but, a house split into two units. A stranger was literally walking in from off the street

Avoid this company at all costs. I own a condo in Washington DC and pay high monthly fees for a management that seems to be unable to solve recurrent problems and is always condescending and entitled in his responses. The manager (Alphonse) has completely forgotten (and refuses to acknowledge) that residents are clients and he needs to find solutions to problems. He does not seem to feel accountable for solving problems and most responses to recurrent issues are just excuses. I have voiced my concerns to the board in hopes they get fired; I know that other residents have talked to Al's bosses

Please, save yourself the misery of renting with EJF. The property has so much wrong with it, including rodents living in our kitchen and basement ceiling. While they fixed things in a timely manner and the contractors were very kind, it is obvious they do not thoroughly inspect properties regularly to ensure they are in safe and decent condition. We didn't even have working smoke detectors, which EJF was aware of but didn't bother fixing. Nearly every person (Vincent, Cathy Sanico, Jazmin) who I have communicated with at EJF has been unhelpful and unable to answer basic questions, instead

It seems I am not alone in thinking that ejf provides terrible service. In my case, I own two properties that I was having managed by another company. That company was bought out by ejf during the summer of 2018. I was assigned a property manager by the name of Ariel Castellón. I don't know if the person actually exist, works, or is just a ghost (only slightly dramatic for effect). This person did not respond to any email or phone call. By escalating I finally got through for a conversation in January. THATS A FULL 6 MONTHS LATER.
Lot of promises were made and then back to silence. Here

This is likely one of the worst, if not worst, property management companies in the city. The do not return phone calls, the don't respond to emails, and, by proof of the attached photos, they never check on the property. An absolute disaster. Stay away! And stay away from Sancia - she is extremely non-responsive.
This is an update. While the business manager responded to my review and offered to have the chance to address the problems at my building, two weeks later, not one item has been addressed. And this is in spite of having reached out several times to find out when these issues
