Landed Gentry Realty & Development

The process of purchasing a Landed Gentry home has been a very positive experience for us. More than anything else, Landed Gentry has proven to be an ethical builder, treating us with respect and professionalism at every step along the build journey. We had a positive experience with the sales staff Rebecca Ungar and Rita Grant, who didn’t seem to mind that we came to the model dozens of times to check on build deadlines, look at finishes, and get a good feel for the space of our new home. Their lovely welcome basket was not necessary, but a nice touch from two people we had grown very fond of. Our designer, Debbie Boffey, was so patient with us during the selections process and went over and above to give us the time we needed to make our selections and stay within budget. We asked for several special requests and Debbie advocated for us within Landed Gentry. Landed Gentry was open to most of our special requests (a fact that was greatly appreciated) and Debbie was able to kindly but factually explain why LG was not able to fulfill one or two. Each time we had a meeting with her, she greeted our dog with as much enthusiasm as she greeted us – a gesture that is never lost on dog lovers! Jack, the construction manager, was patient with us as we dropped by the build site to check on progress. He never seemed to tire of our questions – and we had many! When something was found to be incorrect, (and there are always going to be a thing here or there that doesn’t go as planned) Jack looked into it right away and got it corrected. Finally, one of the most lovely LG employees is Dave, the walk-​through and warranty guy. He has a delightful personality and a very calm way of dealing with hundreds of little «fix its» so that we, the homeowners, are completely satisfied. We just completed our one year warranty period and he took care of each and every item on our list, quickly and professionally. We couldn’t be happier. For us, it’s about Landed Gentry’s people and their commitment to ensure that we are happy with our home. We are very pleased with our experience and would highly recommend LG to anyone looking for a quality home built by an ethical company with great people on staff. Two thumbs up!!!

How absolutely hilarious that you would suggest leaving our lease early would be without penalty. We have already been penalized too much by your company by paying $ 250 cleaning fee, but when we moved in the apartment wasn’t cleaned AT ALL! I had to clean black filth off every surface and inside every cabinet before I could actually clean it for real. So you owe ME $ 250 cleaning fee! When we move out we also have to pay $ 300 to have our carpets cleaned even though we OWN a carpet shampooer and can do it ourselves. Another extortion fee. PLUS as a person with a disability we cannot move without hiring help so we will have to pay another $ 1,000 to move 6 months later because you guys are slumlords and you call that WITHOUT PENALTY?!! Not to mention it the millionth time or anything, but packing an entire house alone is penalty to a person with a disability! Just goes to show how out of touch these corporate slumlords are with reality that more than $ 1500 extra needless expense in six months time would be considered no penalty. I guess we should have known by your disgusting name alone that simple «serfs» like us wouldn’t get a fair shake from ‘the landed gentry”.

This is the 3^rd home my husband have had built from ground up. Hands down, Landed Gentrys staff, from sales to walk thru, have been the best team to work with from all our experiences. Respect, caring & and time extended to us through the building process has been constant throughout this time. Our home has turned out beautifully constructed & we would definitely recommend the Landed Gentry family to build your new home. As with any new build, hiccups happen. Landed Gentry staff make sure all concerns are immediately addressed & remedied. They have gone to great lengths to make us feel like active partners in our build. We love our new home, neighborhood and new friends we have made at Landed Gentry! New Big Fir South, Mt. Vernon WA thrilled homeowners!
