We interviewed 6 or so new agents and were not impressed with any of them. We took a dive and signed with Andrea Rentals as a leasing agent. On a scale of 1-10, they are an 11. They beat our expectations on every level. They are true professionals in all aspects of the leasing process: communication, setting a realistic price, creating and posting the ad, writing the lease, screening prospective tenants and moving the tenant in. We gladly paid the fee, feeling we got more than our money's worth. We highly recommend Andrea Rentals as a leasing agent. There should be more businesses that do such a stellar a job.

Over the last several years I've lived in two different units managed by Discovery Investments, and…read moreboth experiences have been consistently positive! Something that says a lot about the quality of their management. Kelsey and Judith were incredibly helpful throughout the move-in process and have continued to be responsive and supportive with routine requests. Their communication is clear, timely, and professional, which makes a big difference as a tenant. I also want to highlight Pei Pei, who has been amazing with all the behind-the-scenes coordination and support. It's clear there's a strong team ensuring everything runs smoothly. The contractors they work with are equally impressive. For example, John the electrician was professional, efficient, and respectful, making maintenance experiences seamless and stress-free. Overall, my experience with Discovery Investments has been reliable and positive from start to finish. If you're looking to rent in Oakland, I highly recommend working with this team.

SLUMLORD. Would give zero stars if possible…read more From the moment I moved into that apartment I realized I was in a slumlord situation. When I arrived on January 19th there was no working heat and it was in the 40s at night. I was provided with a very small space heater by the "property manager" (that term feels like a big stretch) and I was absolutely freezing all night. The only reason I didn't go to a hotel was because I had just driven for 5 days straight and was literally too exhausted. Additionally, the apartment was ABSOLUTELY FILTHY (I have photos to back this up). The apartment was vacant for months so it is unclear how they did not have time to check the heat or do a basic cleaning. When I complained, Pedram gave me a credit of like $70 for both those issues which is wild as a cleaning service and a hotel stay would easily total $500. Pathetic. I knew I was in for some bullsh*t based on this. From this point on, every time something broke or needed to be fixed, and there were a lot of things that were broken UPON MOVE IN (again, this place was empty and could have been repaired beforehand), Pedram ignored my service requests in the app and my emails. I fixed things with my own time and energy and had to hound him to be reimbursed for the supplies. The whole point of renting is so that I don't have to fix things. I literally had to have a friend fix my leaking kitchen sink because the person who "fixed" it initially didn't actually fix it and Pedram would not respond to my emails at all. I begged him for help. In addition to my actual unit being terrible, the general condition of the property was abhorrent. Overgrown weeds and bushes, filthy walkways that haven't been power washed in years, garbage all over the alley where the bins are, etc. It looked totally ghetto and therefore, people treated it as such. Also, we were told with literally ZERO advanced warning that we would lose access to the washer/dryer for at least a month due to the construction project taking place in the back parking lot (earthquake retrofitting). So then I had to start taking my clothes to a laundromat which is hard to do as a professional working 50+ hr weeks. Additionally, Pedram told us we had to park our cars on the street for this project despite the workers only being there during business hours. There was no reason we had to park on the street at night, other than his negligence with regard to understanding the actual scope of the construction project. My car and several others suffered vandalism/damage due to being on the street. It was completely unnecessary, but he would have known that if he ever stepped foot onto that property or put even the smallest amount of effort into managing it. I finally had to threaten him with legal action to be allowed to break the lease, as I could not continue living in that hell hole. He will not return my security deposit and states he kept it as the lease break fee, which is of course illegal under California state law. So not only did I lose my 2k deposit, I have to pay 1k to fix my car and I paid another 1k for moving expenses. Still very seriously considering taking him to small claims court. I had a completely horrific experience at this place and I have no idea who would write a positive review. I spoke to numerous other residents who all had similar experiences and were completely frustrated and fed up. Pedram, you take advantage of people and you know it. Absolutely disgusting behavior. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. You can say I'm disgruntled about the deposit or whatever you need to, to make yourself feel better, but we both know the truth.

When Kourtney stepped into the role of Operations Director, it felt like things leveled up in all the best ways. She brings a sense of professionalism, follow-through, and genuine care that's hard to come by in property management, and honestly, it shows. I really got to see her superpowers kick in when my basement flooded. And not like a sad little puddle. We're talking industrial fans, contractor trucks, full remediation mode. A lesser property manager might have shrugged, slapped a Band-Aid on it, and hoped for the best. Not Kourtney. She made sure the job was done right from start to finish. You could tell she was budget-conscious but didn't cut corners. She brought in the right crew and took mold risk seriously, which, as someone who lives here, I deeply appreciate. What impressed me most was how she managed the whole circus with steady confidence and actual human decency. She kept me looped in every step of the way, answered all my (very detailed, slightly neurotic) questions, and made sure I never felt brushed off or left in the dark. She even knocked out a few non-urgent maintenance issues that had been lingering forever. Above and beyond doesn't even begin to cover it. Kourtney is sharp, no-nonsense, and clearly takes pride in doing her job well. She's the kind of Operations Director you want in charge when things hit the fan... or the floor. And yes, I absolutely love that a badass woman is running the show in a field that's still way too bro-heavy. More of this energy, please. Huge shoutout to the contractors Ruben and Ruben and their crew. They were pros all the way. Respectful, efficient, and they actually listened when I had concerns. A rare combo. If I could give six stars, I would. Hopefully the next time Kourtney saves the day, it's for something less soggy.

During that time, I experienced recurring issues with maintenance coordination, the quality of work and handoffs, as well as leasing and prospective tenant management. Many of my interactions with the team felt unnecessarily difficult. I often came away with the impression that routine questions or requests were viewed as burdens rather than part of providing property management services. While that was my personal experience, it made communication frustrating throughout the relationship. The experience ultimately ended on a disappointing note. During a conversation about an available apartment, the property manager responsible for the unit abruptly hung up on me. That interaction reinforced my overall impression that the company was focused on doing only the minimum required rather than providing proactive service or building a collaborative relationship. Based on my experience, I would not choose to work with them again.
