OUR STORY
At EJF Rentals, we’re your savvy, DC-obsessed neighbors with deep roots in the region and a passion for helping property owners succeed in Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia. We bring local expertise and a practical, solutions-focused approach to every home we manage—from the quirks of historic Capitol Hill row homes to the rapid growth of emerging neighborhoods across the DMV. Formerly part of EJF Real Estate Services, we became our own company in 2020 to focus exclusively on residential rental management. Our team handles everything: strategic marketing, thorough tenant screening, efficient leasing, seamless rent collection, and proactive maintenance that protects your investment and keeps tenants happy. Backed by the legacy of EJF Real Estate Services, which has been a trusted name in the area since the 1920s, we deliver dependable service, honest communication, and real results—so you can enjoy peace of mind while your property performs at its best.
