      Status:
      Answered
      Details/Timeline: - I have been a customer (landlord) with Nomadic since June 2022 - Since becoming a customer, Nomadic has always deposited my tenant's rent after being received from the tenant - Nomadic then switched to a new payment system on January 5th, 2023 - As part of this switchover, Nomadic sent out marketing materials to customers (landlords) claiming rent would be sent out when received and deposits to landlords would take place after they have cleared Nomadic' s accounts - During this software switchover, Nomadic privately made the decision to hold funds as prepayment of rent (in escrow) if they were paid for future months rent charges - This decision was not communicated to customers, and is in direct conflict with the firm's stated policy and advertised claim on it's website to deposit net distributions typically within 1 business day after rent funds have cleared Nomadic' s account or depositing rent to landlords whenever rent is received - I contacted Nomadic regarding receiving their written policy for holding their customer's (landlord's) earnings in escrow and false advertising claims regarding deposits - Nomadic did not provide this policy in writing and decided not respond to me further regarding the company's false advertised claims - I am seeking that either Nomadic changes it's processes back deposit customer rent when it's received or that the firm takes down it's false advertised claims to landlords on it's website and send written clarification to property owners - I have attached Nomadic' s false advertising as well as my communications with the company

      Nomadic real estate fraudulently used my pepco information for another resident for an entire year now the account is in collections I have never moved into any unit with this disgraceful company. My lawyer advised me to send a email to them asking for a letter stating I never moved in their unit and they refused to provide me with any information about me not living there and they stated they where upset because I would not move into their unit and no I would not move into any unit that would only take a money order or cashiers check and I had to mail it. What type of management company only takes a check or money order by mail.

      Nomadic Real Estate Response

      12/12/2022

      Hello, As we already discussed, you setup PEPCO in your name as a requirement for renting a home and neglected to close the account (as you are the only one that can do so) once you decided to break the lease. Security deposits must be paid in certified funds, which includes a money order or cashier's check. This is standard practice in the industry. Even though DC law allows the owner to mitigate damages in a lease break by requiring you to pay for all utilities and rent until new residents move in, you ultimately had total control on closing out your PEPCO account which you failed to do. As mentioned in our email, the owner lost out on thousands of dollars of rental income when you broke your lease and generously decided not to pursue the matter in collections or court.
