Paul Backer did a great job finding me an apartment. My search was especially chaotic, since what I was looking for changed three time over the course of four days. Each time, Paul took me out and spent the necessary time for me to find what I was looking for. He stayed within the price limits I specified, did not pressure me, worked on his days off, and even suggested other ways I could find an apartment should my search with CAF not come up with what I wanted. My experience closing and signing the lease with Lisa McCauley (in the Edgewater office) was similarly positive. Our transaction needed to be dealt with very quickly due to time constraints; CAF pulled everything together and got it done. The only negative thing I have to say is that the CAF was disorganized in making sure we had the right keys before leaving, and their system was not up to date, so as a result we ended up trying to visit a few apartments for which we didn't have keys or that were already taken. Overall though, CAF found me what I needed.
