Working with Justin & his team at 4J Real Estate was a delight because their in‑depth market knowledge, and clear and timely communication gave me complete confidence throughout the process. In this era of economic uncertainty where real estate deals has taken a hit, Justin remained confident in his ability to lease my place out within a short period of time and he sure delivered! Justin & his team handled every detail of the leasing process: showings, screening, paperwork, and walkthrough with impressive efficiency. I highly recommend 4J Real Estate!

Details: Apartments or condos • One property needs to be managed • Less than $1,000 • On-site management • Vacant • Less than 6 months

Learning that my fav real estate agent also handles property management services took a huge weight off my shoulders when trying to figure out what to do with my condo before an out-of-state move. That weight has stayed off ever since. I enjoyed working with Justin to buy the condo, and Ive had a great experience working with him, Ricardo and the 4J Real Estate team to rent it out, as well. They handled everything from helping me get it professionally cleaned, to pricing it, listing it, finding tenants and taking care of any issues that come up - smoothly, quickly and with clear communication. Cant recommend them enough.

We had such an amazing home buying experience with Justin, so he was the first call we made when we found out wed be relocating due to my wifes job. He walked us through our options and we ended up utilizing 4J Real Estate for property management since we anticipate being back. Ricardo and Justin have made it a very pain free experience. Quickly found us a great tenant & have been very communicative with any issues that arise and quickly work to address them. Couldnt recommend them enough for both property management and buying/selling!
