Short Sale Cafe Eastside

Nov 08, 2020 Report

Listing agent Ms Lea Alperstein was hostile, unprofessional, irate, and disrespectful towards buyers agent located in the DC Metro area. 3 days after the closing of a rental property in Owings Mills, Md Anne Arundel County, Md. Ms Alperstein had the nerve to contact buyers agent from her personal cellphone disputing an actual close date, her broker policy on a closing date, and a fine notification she received from Bright MLS all while homeschooling her children.

She continued through a text asking for an email response. No one answers or return calls from the Yaffee team regarding a potential renter for many of the properties in Owings Mills Md. Client had to drive up to the brokerage to get application process started. Application was done electronically. I do not trust this brokerage or its agents based on the entire selling (renter) process.

I had a great experience working with Jessica Alperstein and I highly recommend her if you are looking to buy or sell your home. She is extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market and she was able to sell my condo unit quickly and above asking price during a global pandemic. I couldn't ask for a better agent and a better experience. If I could give her 10 stars I would. Thank you so much!

I utilized Jessica Alperstein from this agency to find new tenants for my investment property and then sell my property when I was done being a landlord. She was amazing! Her advice was excellent and her knowledge of the market is top notch! I would recommend this agency and Jessica in particular to anyone! She was also always accessible via phone, email and text!
