Thank you to Lisa Sofley for helping us purchase a new home and sell our current home in record time. Lisa went above and beyond during our due diligence period getting all inspections completed and questions answered in the purchase of our home. She marketed our current home and went under contract in 10 days. Lisa worked tirelessly to close in a timely manner. Lisa is honest and kind and works to get you the home that fits your needs. We highly recommend Lisa Sofley!!

The team at Raynor Realty is professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. John Conlon is a great resource for commercial real estate. He takes the time to understand each client’s needs, identify potential opportunities, and provides clear communication throughout the process.
I highly recommend John and the Raynor Realty team to anyone looking to buy, sell, or lease commercial property.

Started out with a small management company that was merged into Raynor. I'm a single unit owner so don't expect to get alot of attention. My biggest problems are with their Maintenance organization (under the same company) and the multiple changes to my assigned property manager.
I have used their services twice during rental tenant turns. Both times the quality of work was subpar and multiple attempts had to be taken to reach a reasonably acceptable results - and they charge a premium for their services with the last turn work being estimated at between $10k and $14k. The unit was pretty much completely rehabbed before the last tenant so this cost is exorbitant.
During the last turn the upstairs flooring was replaced including the stairs. Now, after only two years all the stair molding is pulling loose due to lack of adhesive (see pics). Raynor refuses to do anything to correct this issue.
It is difficult being an out of state owner since I can't be involved on a daily basis and have to rely on the management company to protect my interests, which they have failed to do.

Raynor Group is the best to work with. Offering multiple real estate services, they are essentially a one-stop shop. Every person on the team is kind, knowledgeable, and honest. They take the time to learn about your needs and work with you through every step. I’ll recommend every time!

I'm a long-term tenant with Raynor Realty. They have been great to work with. When I need maintenance done, they are quick to respond. They are very flexible and willing to work with me. They treat me as a valued customer, and I appreciate their work ethic. 10/10.

I can’t say enough great things about Raynor Realty and its owner, who has been a true inspiration to me. They consistently give back to the community and host incredible events that I’ve been fortunate enough to be part of. I wholeheartedly support what they stand for, and if you’re ever in need of their services, I highly recommend reaching out to them.

I would not ever rent a property from this company. Firstly, I was charged an additional $40/month for a "tenant benefit package" that was not outlined in my original lease (when the company was owned by Betty Raynor), nor did I sign any addendum with the new business owners regarding this additional monthly fee. This fee was foisted upon me for 3+ years without any real benefit being received beyond cheap air filters being delivered every 3 months. I could have purchased my own air filters and the quality would have been much higher. Secondly, the new business owners are attempting to keep the majority of my security deposit for a repair that should be covered by my non-refundable pet fees. I was told by the original business owner, Betty Raynor, at the time of the in-person lease signing, that the non-refundable pet fees would be used to cover any damage done by my pets and beyond that amount would come out of my security deposit. They quoted in an email a repair cost of $600. My non-refundable pet fees totaled $540 and my security deposit was $750. Based on those numbers, I should receive $690 back from my security deposit if they follow the original business owners intent. They are now trying to tell me that the non-refundable pet fees are a "pet rent." This was not what I was told at the lease signing and it was not the original business owners intent. I have filed a Better Business Bureau complaint regarding these discrepancies and shady practices and am asking for an appropriate refund of my security deposit and the $40/month I was charged. RENTERS BEWARE! This company used to be great under Betty Raynor but now it is terrible. The new owners are terrible to communicate and work with. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
