I have been utilizing the services of Sonoma County Property Rentals for a little over a year now…read moreand I can honestly say that they are by far the BEST I have ever dealt with. As an owner of rental properties for more than 20 years, I have hired many property managers both in Sonoma County and other areas of California. Laura, the property manager, has been the most knowledgeable, responsive and friendliest of all the managers I have worked with. She is simply outstanding! I'm currently dealing with a difficult situation while trying to sell my property with a tenant in place. Laura has been patient and kind as well as responsive to all of my requests. I highly recommend this team to manage your rentals. Their fees are good too, lower than most!

This review is for Property Owners: My wife spoke with Chris at length about renting our house in…read moreHealdsburg. I spoke with him, too, and he came across to me as smart, competent, and very able to rent our house. This was mid-July of 2020. By December 31, his assistant, Laura, wrote us to say there wasn't interest in our house. We immediately called another property manager who genuinely couldn't understand why the house hadn't been rented. She had a signed rental contract 8 days later. Read that last sentence again. This is why I'm writing this review. During the almost 6 month period we had the house with SCPR, I received a few emails from Laura: The prospective renter wanted $ off the rent, or had some other ask. We always compromised with the request, but nothing ever happened. The house was furnished when we signed the contract with Chris. At the time he said that it added a challenge, but that they would get it done. At some point Laura indicated that, because the house was furnished, they were having a hard time finding renters. When the house was still unrented in November, my wife and I went up, packed up the furnishings and asked them to take new photos. Then came a couple more of the same asks: Would we take $ off the rent, etc., etc.? Nothing happened with the home. Then the "nobody's interested in your property" email. I'll leave it at this: Our experience was that our house sat empty for almost 6 months, immediately followed by the next property manager raising the asking rent by $200/month (from the asking price that SCPR set) and it was rented in 8 days! All you need to know...

In my case, the security deposit was partially returned to the tenants even though damages they caused were either poorly repaired or, in some cases, not repaired at all despite being listed on the work order receipt. The company demonstrated an amateur understanding of their fiduciary responsibilities, even expecting me, as the landlord, to follow up with contractors to complete work that had already been paid for. Overall, the experience was frustrating and unprofessional.

The property was listed with H&H for 2 1/2 months and no qualified tenants were found during that time. I terminated the agreement with them for a fee of $175 as I was losing significant income with the unit being vacant. Within two weeks of hiring a new property manager, it was rented. I don't feel H&H ran realistic comps (if they ran them at all) or they would have known the unit was overpriced. Maybe they aren't as familiar with Marin County as Sonoma County? Plus, communication with H&H was not consistent and I found I had to follow up with them weekly. They are definitely cheaper than other PM's but in my case, I got what I paid for.

Managing HOA's is a difficult proposition given all the crazy rules and nonsense going on in this state right now. I would like to say that after being with GPS in our association for the last couple of years, I have to render some good comments. There were some rough bumps, but we decided as a board to work "with" the GPS team that were assigned to us. They are Nichole, Christopher and Bryanna. I've lived in our complex for 40 years now and been on the board four times over that period. I've seen a few good managers and more than my share of horrible ones. The above individuals from GPS have made a tremendous difference in improving our complex. Misty was one of the crew but sadly she had to move on. We are still in good contact with her as well. Anyway, if you are with GPS and not thrilled, I can only suggest you attempt to get the above crew to work with you. There are managers (and there are managers LOL). One of our last managers from another property group couldn't manager her way out of a dark bathroom if you gave her a roadmap, a flashlight and a head start! 'Nuff said about her!

She never offered an apology or remedy for any of these things. We did not receive any support throughout our rental, including for the check out process. Would recommend finding another property management company in the area, if needed.

I've had the pleasure of meeting Sheila approx 10 years ago and it wasn't until just recently when…read moreI called upon her for her professional services. I was looking to refinance our property due to the rumored crazy low interest rates. I was referred to another company (Stearns) by a close friend and they offered me 1.01% lower than my current rate. This was a nice savings for me but I was skeptical and wanted to play the game searching for something better. This is when I started reaching out to others I knew. Next was 1.25% lower than my current rate. This was good too but I wasn't done. Sheila came in as the winner by being able to offer me the rate of the day lowering my rate 1.375% lower than my current. I immediately jumped on board. Right away I could tell the level of service and detail that Sheila provides in her profession. I was asked questions I've never been asked before raising my antenna as to why nobody at these other companies asked me these questions. She even took the time to explain a lot of things, and I mean a lot, she basically had to hold my hand at points because I'm not very familiar with these processes and this industry and I ask a lot, and I mean a lot of questions. She was patient, kind and professional all throughout the processes. I greatly appreciate having someone who is knowledgeable, experienced as well as kind to make this process as smooth and seem less as possible. She's now my real estate person, and could be yours too. Don't make the same mistake I did, call her 1st. Next time I know I will. Thanks Sheila. Love my new payment!

Be careful giving them your personal information. Untrustworthy for the renters…read more If you're renting and your property management company automatically enrolls you in an RBP (Renter Benefits Package) -- push back immediately. Be very persistent, get everything in writing, and clearly state that you do not want it. In my opinion, it's not beneficial at all. Everything included in the RBP can be obtained for free elsewhere. I genuinely believe it's a scam. My experience with Pure Property Management has been, quite literally, the worst. I feel they crossed serious boundaries by using my personal information to report to credit bureaus without my permission. Even though I don't have any negative marks, I never authorized this, and they act like it's completely normal and legal. They have repeatedly refused to meet with me in person to go over their policies, and they won't clearly send them either. Instead, they hide behind emails and generic responses, clearly drafted with help from their legal team. In my experience, their policies change often, and renters are not informed when they do. It's somehow on the renter to constantly follow up and keep track of changes -- which is unreasonable. They do not work with their renters. In my opinion, they don't care, they aren't transparent, and they make things intentionally confusing. I believe they rely on sneaky practices to make quick money -- like automatically enrolling renters in the RBP and charging for it. They later changed the policy to allow renters to opt out, but never properly informed anyone that this was an option. Personally, I call it the "scam package." Based on my experience, I would avoid Pure Property Management at all costs.
