I'm sharing my personal experience as a homeowner in an association that previously hired Harvest…read moreRealty Development to manage our HOA, so other boards and communities can make informed decisions. In my experience, the way the company presented itself before we signed the management contract felt noticeably different from how things went once they were actually managing our community. Before hiring, communication felt positive and accommodating, but after the contract was in place, their responsiveness and overall attitude toward homeowners seemed to change in a way I found disappointing. Work orders were sometimes delayed, disregarded, or not completed. Communication was not always punctual, and at times interactions with homeowners felt argumentative rather than collaborative. I also had concerns about financial management. From my perspective, some contractor bids appeared higher than expected, and the accounting we received did not always feel clear or transparent. This left me uncomfortable with how funds might be allocated. Important due-diligence notes for boards considering this company (or any management firm): Carefully review the wording of any proposed repair scopes and contract terms. I encountered line items that felt vague to me. Do your own diligence: ask for detailed breakdowns of materials, labor, and contingencies. Obtain multiple competitive bids before approving repairs, and compare like-for-like scopes. Request regular, easy-to-follow financial reports and ask clarifying questions until everything is clear. These are my personal observations and opinions based on direct experience, and others may have different experiences. For any community evaluating management services, I recommend asking detailed questions up front, requiring transparent documentation, and closely reviewing contracts, scopes, and financials before moving forward.

I want to share my sincere appreciation for Jimmy Lam at Lotus Escrow for the exceptional care and…read moreprofessionalism he showed throughout our recent transaction. As the daughter of the seller, I was closely involved in the closing process, and Jimmy truly went above and beyond. He took the time to thoroughly walk us through the escrow signing documents, ensuring we understood everything before moving forward. What stood out most was his willingness to make necessary corrections to the vesting/title exactly as the buyer had requested before filing--rather than simply relying on an amended letter. This level of diligence mattered greatly to me, as I needed to see those corrections reflected clearly throughout the documents prior to signing. Coming from a background as a paralegal, I understand how critical it is for documents and contracts to be accurate and properly executed. Issues that are overlooked can create serious problems down the line. Jimmy respected that perspective and never pressured us to rush. Instead, he honored our request to carefully review every document, giving us the time and space we needed to ensure everything was in my mother's best interest. I also want to acknowledge Janici Pan, who served not only as our agent but as a true advocate. She consistently ensured that every step of the process aligned with what was best for my mother. We deeply value her commitment and her belief that we are stewards of what belongs to God, and that such responsibilities should be handled with integrity and care. Overall, we are incredibly grateful for the professionalism, patience, and integrity shown by both Jimmy and Janici. Their attention to detail and respect for our concerns gave us confidence and peace of mind throughout the entire process.

Visited one of IRN Realty's rental listings in Yorba Linda and had concerns with both the property…read morecondition and communication process. The home had several visible maintenance issues during the showing, including damaged screens, missing/unfinished door hardware, electrical switch issues, missing caulking, and general turnover items that did not appear ready for a new tenant. After the showing, I reached out with a professional list of questions regarding repairs, cleaning, and move-in expectations before submitting sensitive application documents. Unfortunately, I did not receive any response by phone, text, or email during business hours. I also attempted to contact the office directly and did not receive a callback. I understand rentals move quickly and no property is perfect, but communication and professionalism matter especially when prospective tenants are expected to provide personal financial documents and application fees. Hoping management can improve responsiveness and property preparation moving forward.

Christine Lin is not only a horrible real estate agent she's a terrible human being. I spoke to her…read moreface-to-face regarding my credit history and she pushed me to apply. She was "surprised" to tell me the one mark on that we discussed about for five minutes. I told her that if she doesn't pay attention or remember, that could affect me- in response she says some petty shxt that exposes her character. and GOD thank god i don't know her personally. Feel bad for anyone who comes her way or is around her. I can tell she just reeks of being a bottom feeder of human existence. No honesty, no professionalism, just a fragile, poor ego. Yes she was late, yes she's fake, yes she's probably not listening to you or won't remember because her life is in shambles. Enjoy my $30 or $40 you so badly need. Unfortunate shes around the 626 area. If you have to speak with her, I highly recommend making sure you either record the conversation so she doesn't "remember" something or if she "doesn't really know" the rules. Either way, clearly incapable, unknowledgeable, and unprofessional. And if she does something unprofessional and unethical, I advise you to report her to the California Department of Real Estate (DRE)

Baldwin Property Management took over managing our condo complex about a year ago. Our previous HOA…read morehad a history of ignoring requests and communication - our place was a mess - so I'm sure many of us were understandably cautious when Baldwin Property Management stepped in, especially after seeing their Yelp Reviews. However, they've exceeded all my expectations. It's refreshing to finally have an HOA that communicates clearly, responds promptly, and keeps us updated on what's going on. Just to list a few things they've done since taking over: hired new landscapers and cleaners, cleaned a stairwell that hasn't been touched in literally a decade, brought out community gym to the cleanest state in years, fixed our garage doors, put water back into our fountains, turned on the gas to our BBQ grills, and installed security cameras near our mailbox. These sound like basic things but these are the things HOAs should do and from experience and from what I've heard, things that a lot of HOAs neglect. Special thank you to Christi Schaeffler, our community manager who I believe has been largely responsible the improvement in our community.
