JACK LINGO REALTOR® Rehoboth Ave, Rehoboth Beach

We booked a rental well before the pandemic. As our rental approached so did the pandemic, we were concerned and tried to get a refund or at least a rescheduling. Nope not in their policy. Like anyone had pandemic policies in place! Felt very impersonal and like we were on our own now that our checks were in. We went and made the best of it, but their handling of the situation was very cold and matter of fact. I would say proceed with caution.

We rented from this company during our four-month stay in Rehoboth Beach. The company was very helpful getting the rental arranged on short notice and provided an excellent value for a long-term vacation rental in the off-season. After move-out we were accused of taking a cable box from a spare bedroom and disabling the internet prior to move-out (which was still working for us right until we moved out) and are expected to pay any and all related charges. They do seem to have nice rentals and have a large number of offerings in the area, but you'll want to protect yourself accordingly in your dealings with them (we've never had this kind of problem before, and we've been bouncing from rental to rental seeing the country for the past two years). Record EVERYTHING and check EVERYTHING before you sign, and make sure you document EVERYTHING on move-out as well in case accusations are made.

We rented a villa on memorial weekend from Lingo Realtor and satisfied with the location and services that they provided to us. Everything was organized and the villa was nice and clean. Definitely recommend them! Thank you

If it were possible to give NEGATIVE stars, this company would earn a -5 from me. Our entire vacation was burdened by senseless issues that could have been prevented/addressed much quicker than they were. First, the house was FILTHY. Then, there was no hot water - which is super great for giving children showers! The basement room smelled musty, and members of our family have terrible asthma/allergies, so we couldn't even use it to sleep in. OH! And did I mention that the "heated pool" wasn't heating? When we called to express our concerns, they sent a realtor over to "check it out." "I'll inform the homeowner," she said. "There's no way there isn't hot water," and "the pool isn't advertised as heated," this company claimed, brushing off our concerns almost immediately. The house listing clearly listed the pool as "heated pool and spa." And the maintanence man fiddled with the boiler for the hot water for half an hour before establishing, "officially," that the house had no hot water. "It's a basement unit," the company claimed, "They're usually more damp." A little dampness, we could handle, but certainly not the mildew growing rampant by the over-worked dehumidifier. I showered down there for ten minutes and needed to use a nasal spray. Ultimately, the boiler for the hot water needed a part replaced, as did the heated pool. We were reimbursed a fee for the pool, since we couldn't use it for FIVE of our seven days, but that doesn't cover the other issues (come on, y'all don't have a cleaning crew to check the homes you're renting?!). It also doesn't mask the fact that we were brushed off when the complaints were first made. We frequent Rehoboth, but will NEVER use Jack Lingo again. PS - start listing your "basement units" as "dungeons." It'll give people a better feel of what they're getting themselves into.

We have rented through Jack Lingo for years in both Rehoboth and Dewey Beach, and they are easy to work with and very responsive if there is any issue. We highly recommend Jack Lingo!!

We’ve been coming back year after year, working with agent Sheila Davolos. A real pleasure to communicate with and she makes it so easy! We could not be any happier with our experiences and highly recommend for anyone looking for a beach vacation. Even this year, precautions are in place to address the virus.

We have been struggling to make a challenging decision regarding our trip to Rehoboth Beach with a group of friends this coming Labor Day week. We are coming from Ohio and have several in our group that are compromised with health conditions. Ohio requires a 2 week quarentening period upon returning. They are not on board with the global pandemic and are not working with customers to make adjustments to accommodate the depositsand payments. They are only concerned about making money for themselves. It's been a nightmare to work with them! There inability to help with contract cancellations has caused problems with everyone in our group! SHAME ON YOU JACK LINGO REALTORS! I would be embarrass to have any association to this business. I will not be using them in the future. DON'T SIGN ANYTHING WITH ANYONE FROM THIS COMPANY!

Carol and Dave were always responsive to my questions when I was deciding on the rental. The house was clean and pictures were just as we found the house. They checked in with us to see that everything was ok, and the one thing we needed, propane tanks, they were very prompt at replacing. I look forward to next summer with them.

Always have had a positive experience with Jack Lingo over our many years of renting with them for our annual multi-family beach vacation. They have been very responsive in resolving the handful of issues we have encountered with the properties we've rented over the years.

Jack Lingo is not at all a good company to deal with as a landlord. They take a 15% fee every month and do nothing for that fee except collect rent and send it to landlords. They do not check on the rental as they should to make sure there is no damage from tenants. They always seem to side with the tenants when there is damage. As an example I have a screened in porch and the screen was ripped off when I went to inspect after the tenant left. The agent at Lingo told me that they have strong winds there and that's why the screen came off. Now I'm a pretty smart guy and have several technical degrees in science and I know that the wind cannot rip the screen off unless there was some hurricane winds which never happened. Plus the screen is a mesh screen where the wind would blow through it. Also tenant left holes in the wall and Lingo never inspected the place after tenant left. I had to go down there which is a 5 hr drive and check it myself. What the heck am I paying these idiots for if they are not doing anything for the money?? They cannot be trusted to do their job. I eventually fired them and I am no longer using realtors to get tenants. If you want something done right you have to do it yourself. So I am doing it my self! What a waste of money!
