They just dumped our condo association due to "insufficient staffing". Our contact was fairly good to work with, but since she's leaving they have given us their 60 day notice for terminating our account.

Our building was managed by Dirigo the first two years we lived there. They were wonderful - professional, courteous, organized. They kept everything in great working order and were proactive communicators. Kathi managed our property and did a phenomenal job. We miss being under the expert management of Dirigo and would definitely rent from them again in the future.

I reached out to Dirigo when I started renting my condo. Crystal and Alisha handle the residential rentals, and they are both AMAZING. From being very informative during my first call, to answering my endless follow-up questions, to doing a walk-through to tell me everything that needed to be done for Code, to showing the place and finding GREAT tenants, they hit it out of the park every step of the way. I would highly recommend Crystal, Alisha, and the whole team at Dirigo!

Been renting from them for almost a year, can't say I can come up with any complaints. Any issues that arise within my unit I send an email and usually have someone working on it within same hour. Very professionally ran and a delight to rent from!

I helped move my brother in law into Bayview Ct. From my first encounter with Crystal, I knew we were in good hands. She did everything possible to make the process as seamless as possible. Even moving up the 'move-in' date which we desperately needed. The apartment itself was clean and fresh and bright. Again Crystal immediately addressed minor concerns. The building is secure, neat and orderly.
On move-in day we were stunned at how lovely and welcoming the tenants were as they were coming and going. One couple helped us load the elevator. Such a great vibe. The location is perfect as my brother in law does not drive and sits on the bus line. Very convenient. With the efficient and respectful manner that Crystal runs the show, I would imagine Dirigo's other properties are similar. Refreshing!
