Communication was great at first, but unfortunately everything fell apart at lease signing. A $250 cleaning fee was added verbally instead of in writing, and I was also told to expect additional deductions at the end of the lease. The company did not agree to put these terms in writing or communicate clearly, and I was left without a response by move-in day. This lack of transparency wasted my time and completely disrupted my plans read more

Brimco - Building apartments - Apartments Near Me - Los Angeles, California

For three years I lived in a beautiful apartment that Brimco manages, and recently moved out due to a change in my living situation. Throughout my time there they were always prompt with any concerns I raised and addressed everything swiftly. There were weekly landscapers that took care of the greenery on the property and they made sure to keep common areas well managed and clean. All of the property managers were great but I had the most rapport with Javier! He always responded timely and with humor and empathy ever since I first moved in. If there's one thing I'll miss about my last apartment, it'll be the management team. They were all so kind and went the distance to make sure I felt heard. read more

After seeing the reviews of this management company, I was really excited to find such a quality Management Company in LA. Unfortunately, this was not the case in terms of my experience when trying to get an apartment with them. I found their available unit on Westside Rentals and really fell in love with the unit. You can tell this company really does put the time into maintaining their properties. When I called and set up an appointment to see the unit, the person on the phone (who's name I did not get) was very helpful in setting up an appointment. He mentioned there is an on-site manager who would assist with the tour whenever I would like. I set my appointment and even received a text message from Randy in the morning confirming my 12pm appointment. At a little past 11:30, while I was on my way, he tried to push my appointment to 12:30pm. I was a little shocked considering that the appointment was already confirmed in the morning and figured something popped up which I understand. Once I arrived, they mentioned another person who is on site can assist with the tour. This person did not speak English at all, which I do not fault them for, but could not effectively answer my questions or communicate with me. Once the tour was over I called back Randy who never showed up. He told me what to send over for my application and they could get me an answer by the end of the next day. After I sent in my application in the same day, I received no word back that it was received or anything. I waited till the next day where I texted Randy twice and even followed up on my application via email which is sent to their entire team, only to not receive any response. Being scared to lose the apartment I decided to call the phone number in their initial email with the application only to have someone on the phone tell me that Randy had taken the day off and would not be in. I asked them if it would be okay if someone else could look at my application since I knew time was of the essence only to have the person on the phone completely dismiss the idea saying "I don't have time for that today is Rent Day." It wasn't even the 1st of the month. Since I was forced to wait an entire day, I expected to receive some sort of information regarding my application from Randy today. Instead I received a response from their general inbox with no signature saying that someone else had already applied and provided the deposit. I was completely taken aback by this. I was forced to wait by their staff a full 24 hours and no communication was provided that other applications were being processed during this time. Why didn't I receive any sort of information that someone was already approved and they were just waiting on them to provide the deposit? Why wasn't my application given the same courtesy of those before? Also when asked for my app to be processed by someone else, I was completely shut down. I was effectively forced to lose this apartment. Their answer to my frustration and confusion on the situation leads me to believe that the management team is not effective in communicating. I would've given them 1 star but being completely honest, the maintenance of their building really was great. Kudos to that I guess. read more

I have lived in a Brimco managed apartment for almost 3 years. I could not have asked for a better company to manage our apartment building. Jimmy was our original point of contact and now Pedro has taken over his responsibilities. Both of these individuals are super helpful and very communicative. If there were issues that occurred, whether it be a leak or the washer/dryer breaking down, Jimmy and Pedro instantly responded to our requests for assistance and coordinated the necessary repairs in a timely manner. If you are in the market to rent an apartment unit, I would highly recommend looking for apartments that are managed by Brimco! read more

Leased an apartment from Brimco a few months ago. Brimco was super helpful with getting us settled in and was very quick to answer questions and make repairs. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, we had some noise issues at our apartment that were problematic for us (I work at home as a Sound Designer). However, Brimco was super accommodating and let us out of out the lease early. They even offered to relocate us to another apartment under their management, which was super thoughtful. I would highly recommend them. They are professional, attentive, and understanding of their tenants. read more

I lived in 209 N boylston street for two years, Javier and building manager Ramon are both been extremely helpful since very beginning! I had some problems applying for apartment because I'm an international student, but Javier understood my situation and was very flexible on it. I got my application approved in half day and moved in in the same week! I only have two ants problems in my apartment in entire two years, Javier always respond quickly and schedule the help very fast! The only reason I'm leaving is I'm moving out of State, I'm currently applying for new apartment and Javier is more than happy to help me verify my rental history and put good words for me. I couldn't be happier with my rental experience with Brimco LLC, they works fast and efficiently! Much better than most big management companies. If you're thinking about renting from them, don't hesitate to do it:) read more

We lived there for 1.5 years. The management team is very nice. Great to place to live.

My wife and I have lived in apartments most of our lives and can say without a doubt, BRIMCO is by far the best management team we have ever encountered!!! They have tended to all challenges with alacrity and professionalism. We have genuinely felt they see ownership as a responsibility to sincerely ensure the living of their tenants at the highest quality. Jimmy has always been available and genuinely cares. So grateful to this team!! read more

I originally found the mariposa apt through apartments.com. Javier was very quick to respond and very welcoming from 8-5 to see apt openings. Jimmy assisted and was very polite and informative! AND APPLICATIONS ARE FREE ! Application sent in same day when I got home and next day jimmy was able to help me with getting my lease in tip top shape. Very astonished and IMPRESSED with their coordination in work. 100% recommended when looking for a new place to call home. They made it very calm and easy rather than nerve wrecking as I always get relocating ! All I can say is I'm a happy camper and you can be too! read more

I would really reconsider signing a lease with this office. I was great tenant for a year. Paid my rent on time, and had no issues with management or property. In order to move in they ask for 1st month rent + deposit, which is the equal value. I clearly understand they're is a cleaning fee/etc when moving in which deducts your deposit. Management had clearly stated that $125.00 would be deducted. However once moving, they decided to add excessive fees to deduct an amount of over $400.00. They clearly came up with extra fees, such as cleaning of tile, restoring molding, and unnecessary fixes. When I called for explanation, they responded, " you should be thankful it was not more"?!!!. I was completely surprised and frustrated that company would abuse tenants that clearly take care of their space. For a location that is invested with cockroaches(kitchen bathroom), the water is turned off every month should reevaluate how they treat their honest and responsible tenants. Stay away from this location, and BRIMCO management as a whole. read more

I lived at a Brimco property for the past 6 years. I have had nothing but a great experience and am extremely impressed in the level of professionalism I received by the Brimco team. I only left the property for a new job out of the area but would absolutely recommend a Brimco property to anyone. Thank you! read more

Brimco - Apartments Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I just moved into a BRIMCO-managed property and am incredibly pleased with the level of service they have provided. As with any new apartment, I have had a few things I wanted handled, and they have taken care of everything requested day-of or the next day. Jimmy is the best - always responds quickly and is very helpful with the move-in process. The apartment is beautiful and has been very well taken care of. You can tell these folks put a lot of time into making things right, whereas many properties in LA where the quick fix is the default. Looking forward to my new home! Thanks, Jimmy! read more

I've been living at a Brimco property for about seven months now and Ivan and Teo are terrific landlords. At move-in, they were extremely accommodating and helpful to a new LA resident coming from the East Coast. They helped me navigate different moving procedures and were in general very kind and welcoming. And ever since, Ivan and Teo have been nothing but stellar. They quickly and efficiently attend to any maintenance and care about their tenants. As someone who has been living in apartments for several years now, I can say that Brimco has been the easiest and kindest management company I've lived with. Wholeheartedly recommend them! read more

I recently moved into a Brimco-Managed apartment and since day one Teo and Ivan have been nothing but supportive, communicative and efficient. From the initial viewing to the lease signing, the team has been so adaptive, supportive and understanding; they always found ways to accommodate our needs at every turn. I don't believe there is another management company in LA that is as supportive of the tenants as they are. They really played a huge role in making us feel welcomed and comfortable. Thank you Ivan and Teo for being so great! read more

I recently moved into a BRIMCO-managed apartment & the entire team went above and beyond to accommodate my needs! As a recent transplant & new renter, Teo and Ivan made me feel especially at home in LA! They both responded quickly to my questions for the application process, they even updated the unit windows within a day, and installed a new AC unit (all within a few days!) I am so thankful for their continued communication and their efforts to make me feel at home! I highly recommend a BRIMCO managed property!! read more

I lived in my apartment for a year and the only reason I moved out was because I got a new job and wanted to relocate. Jimmy, Nelson, and Javier are approachable and I was satisfied with the building management. I loved my apartment and would consider renting there again in the future if I'm back in LA. read more

I submitted my application to rent six weeks ago and called regularly not given any information. I was finally told by a third party rental brokerage that my application was declined NO reason given. I have a 700+ Fico score and great rent payment history. Brimco is a nightmare and meanwhile I'm approved for a house that is 2/3rds more expensive!! You don't want them managing your property and you certainly don't want them as your mangers. They don't really speak English either and they don't return phone calls. BAD BUSINESS read more

Recently leased a 1 bedroom here. We were very well taken care of by Nelson and Jimmy. Very professional company and employees as well. Clean, quiet and with new appliances. read more

I lived at 946 N Mariposa for 6 years. The leasing staff, specifically Nelson, were all very friendly and attentive to my needs. Nelson is very responsive and always wants to provide a good experience to his tenants. I would definitely recommend leasing at one of their many properties because it is always hard to find staff that actually care about the residents. read more

I don't have lots of experience with renting but I do know that Brimco is the model property management company. I moved in with Brimco last year; the fridge and stove were a little outdated, I called and asked if I could get more energy efficient ones and they replaced them right away. Anytime I called for anything, they always respond quickly. Everyone's always very friendly and their property is well maintained. Brimco will take good care of you! read more

This management company did their best to accommodate my early move out. Esther and Jimmy made it very simple. Thank you guys!!!

I just moved into a new apartment that is managed by Brimco. We couldn't be happier with the service. Any type of issue or request is handled within a day. Very professional and very friendly business. Moreover, they did an outstanding job renovating the apartment - I love my new place. I can highly recommend Brimco to anyone! read more

I can't rate Jimmy and Teo highly enough. They have been nothing but supportive, efficient and helpful during this whole process. We viewed the apartment and within 5 days had signed the lease and moved in. It is the first time I've rented an apartment in LA (being from the UK) and they honestly made it as easy as possible. Everything was so straight forward. I am so grateful. Thank you guys! read more

absolute worse decision of my life moving into 5225 lexington ave los angeles 90029, seemed like a beautiful and CHEAP apartment. it is COVERED in cockroaches. I broke my lease after 5 weeks of living hell. I couldn't eat or sleep. I even inspected the place before signing the lease, they come out right when your done unpacking. Truly the worse heart achy month of my entire life. Do not sign with them, read more

If you're looking for unethical, scumbag real-estate agents, these are your guys! After weeks of searching for an apartment, I found the absolute perfect place. My application was approved and they PROMISED they would hold the apartment for me until the next business day when I could put down a deposit. Called all day to try to come in, and they told me my real estate guy wasn't there. I finally am on my way to give them a deposit, and they tell me they gave the apartment to someone else. They lied about taking the property off the market, and they lied about holding it until the next day when I could put down a deposit. DO NOT RENT FROM THESE GUYS!!!! They'll build you up to knock you down, and waste valuable time you could have used to find another place. read more

I have leased two apartments from them. Maria and Ester are fairly easily to work with especially with a little bit of an English/Spanish language barrier. They worked with me in a few ways over the 18 months I stayed with them. All and all I would rent from them again. Thanks ladies. read more

I've lived at a Brimco property for over three years. On the few occasions where I'll encounter an issue, the team is always impressively quick to respond and resolve. Jimmy and the team are always friendly, as are any of the people who come for repairs. The building and property are kept up nice and clean. When I moved in, the apartment had a seemingly brand new stove and fridge. The application process was quick and easy as well. Would gladly move from one Brimco property to another. :) read more

Excellent service and attentiveness to tenants. Quick to reply to concerns, emails and phone calls. Beautifully maintained properties. Thank you for everything, Brimco! read more

Jimmy is responsive, solution-oriented, and simply the best. He has been welcoming and helpful through the move-in process and with any subsequent requests. I love knowing that the Brimco team cares as much about my new home as I do! read more

I have lived at my Brimco apt for almost 19 years, and the treatment, integrity and attention have always been excellent. Jimmy in the main office takes care of your needs and always promptly tends to any issues you may have. I have recently moved due to work, and I miss my apt and I truly recommend moving to one of heir properties. Thanks to Jimmy, Esther and the entire Brimco family. Peace out read more

DO NOT give any money or applications to these scammers. Save yourself money and heartache. I'm here to help others not end up in the same situation, do not trust them. read more

I agree with J.T. They are the worst I ever had to deal with. Tried to rent a place they were managing. I sent my application and all my paperwork and never heard back so I called and spoke to Teo and then Ester. Both worthless. Ester told me I absolutely had to come to the office (in a crappy office in the back of a crappy building in a crappy area) to bring my drivers license so I did. Never heard back from them. Tried numerous times to find out what was happening and Teo would not take my calls. I have good credit, make six figures, do not own a pet or smoke. Cannot find out why they will not give me the place. They never called my previous building manager, never called my work, nothing. Meanwhile the place is still listed for rent. A friend of mine even suggested there might be discrimination (might make sense since they never even asked me for an application fee once they saw me) and even though I never go there and am not one to think that way, I have to say that either way something is definitely wrong with the way they conduct business. BTW, when I went to their office they were not on Las Palmas but on Carlton Way in Hollywood. read more
