Business ProfileforJ & R Development

Agreements were made for J&R Development to Rehab/Repair two (2) properties owned by myself. Property 1 was left incomplete after 6 months time. J&R only visited property 1 time (October 2021) during the entire process. Superintendent seems to have only visited a handful of times. Periods of weeks would pass ***** I was unable to get in touch with J&R. Many promises were made but few were kept. Total charged for this "rehab" was $7,000 and house has gained $0 in market value as a result. A partial list of incomplete/poor workmanship items follows: - Time Frame agreed upon: 2-3 weeks - Actual time to completion: Never completed. RealHomes finally requested that they stop work roughly 6 months after start date. Work Complete: * Sheetrock/paint - cabinets were painted black. Agreed upon wall color was light gray. Final color was medium/dark blue. Final result was sub par at best. Getting sheetrock/painting "completed" took months * Trim - many staples/nails poking out. Trim on door frames missing. Trim not cut in. * Flooring replaced (refinishing existing hardwoods was agreed upon. Cheap vinyl was used over wood flooring instead) The list of incompleted items is too long to fit in this complaint form. Property 2 - I entered agreement with J&R for the complete rehab/repair of this property to be used as a rental property. The contract provided that this would be completed in 2 months time. No work or attempt to perform work was ever completed at this property. I paid a $8950 down payment for this work that was never completed and in an attempt to recover some losses and avoid court, requested $7,700 partial refund on this. ****** ******* sent a check for this amount, requested that RealHomes wait a week to cash, and after a week passed, mentioned that he was filing for bankruptcy and would figure out something with money. The $7,700 check bounced. That was the last that I ever heard from ******.
