ORIGINAL 04/20/2026 REVIEW (OUTDATED): "I'm documenting a persistent culture of administrative negligence at J&D Management. My ledgers prove a 43-day breach of basic habitability regarding cooking facilities, followed by a 27-day delay for a simple bathroom faucet. The management utilizes a recurring "Sick Technician" loophole (specifically citing "Ryan") to justify maintenance delays while simultaneously allocating resources to non-essential aesthetic upgrades like painting stairs. This selective maintenance model directly threatens housing security, as evidenced by a current SDHC Abatement notice for a rotting security fence that remains unaddressed despite legal deadlines. Future tenants should be aware that this office operates with a throttled logic that prioritizes the profits of property owners over the legal and medical hygiene of residents. I have officially escalated this ledger to Council President Sean Elo-Rivera's office for a systemic audit. If you value responsive management, avoid this portfolio."

I rented a condo through SDPPM for over 8 years and have nothing but good things to say about them…read more I primarily worked with Michael Stone as my property manager. He was always very professional, responsive, and timely with any action needed. The lease, rental process, and exit process was all very smooth and had no issues. I also had no issue receiving my almost full deposit back (I was only charged a small fee for a plumbing visit that was truly my fault). I would definitely rent from them again.

I'm updating as I get a lot of DMs about my review. I was pretty frustrated at the time. This is…read morewhat happened back in 2011. I have NO idea what changes have happened at SDPPM in the past 9 years. I think if you understand that as a landlord in CA that the property managers exist for the benefit of the tenant only (not the landlord paying them) then you'll be far better off than I was. I was ignorant of a lot of things as I was an accidental landlord and didn't have a ton of knowledge (hence hiring someone to handle it all for me). They rented my 700 sq ft condo (2 br, 1 ba) in University Heights to three people. A couple and a third person. That third wheel changed several times over the course of the one year I rented my place before selling. I was never notified of tenant changes. My neighbors kept me apprised. I allowed pets with prior approval. They had none upon signing the contract. A few months later, they had several and had started a dog-sitting business out of my condo (again- my neighbors let me know). When I contacted SDPPM to fix the dog-sitting situation and the lack of prior pet approval by me, they acted like it wasn't their problem to address. The tenants also allowed the dogs to pee on my enclosed balcony (upper unit). There was a clogged drain spout they were using to wash the piss down, but they let no one know (to my knowledge) that it wasn't draining and it flooded the unit below. Again, SDPPM acted like it wasn't their problem to handle. Took months of back and forth to resolve. I gave up, decided to sell the condo at a loss and SDPPM reported the final walkthrough was all okay. My realtor then walked through and found a broken window, so I had to go back to SDPPM and get the window replaced. Overall, completely unimpressed. I hope this helps, given the age of my review. I should have done something about breach of contract for allowing/ not knowing/ not caring about the dogs and dog-sitting service, but honestly didn't think of it. I just wanted to be rid of them as my property manager.

High Tide Properties: Truly Top-in-Class--Going Above and Beyond!…read more I first trusted Seung, the founder of High Tide Properties, with managing a condo for my wife and I in San Diego years ago, and he provided excellent service. When faced with a deeply complex, time-sensitive, and emotional challenge recently, I knew exactly who to call. My mother, who is aging, had to move across the country to live with my sister in Arizona. This left her unit needing a complete clean-out--sorting possessions, packing, removing trash--and a full update and renovation. Living out of state, I was depending entirely on Seung and his team. Seung and the property manager, Charlie, immediately sprang into action. They saved the day! They treated my mother's possessions with incredible care and respect, handled all the hauling, and diligently packed a moving pod for her items going to Arizona. Crucially, they kept me updated through proactive video calls, ensuring every decision was aligned with our wishes. Seung and Charlie have been fantastic communicators, securing fair bids quickly and ensuring the final repairs and updates are completed to the highest standards. Their speed, professionalism, and commitment mean the unit will be rented out as quickly as possible. The work High Tide Properties helped us with directly ensures my mom will be able to secure excellent lease payments to support her retirement in Arizona. This is, without a doubt, the most professional property management service I have ever encountered. They are top in class and I cannot thank them enough for their dedication.

It isn't typical for a management service to help a returning owner once their contract with them is completed but Ryan in the San Diego office has been very helpful with this transition.

The fact the Ryan has helped me move back in and figure out how to deal with the last tenants deposit as well as fixing what need to be fixed has been immensely helpful. Thank you Ryan!

Since 2018 I've been HARASSED, fighting them in a court of law just to lose to white privilege. I lived in this apt owned by Richard Westfall for FIVE years and let NUMEROUS things go under radar so don't do that yall! When they want to throw you under the bus they will. I suffered roaches, fleas, mold, no work order receipts ever and barely had anyone come out when I requested a service. These people are thugs and will stop at nothing to get your money. You have a winery, multiple HUDs and a rental property company to manage them, a trust -- I don't know any people who need money that have trusts, and loyal dogs to do your dirty work. Stephanie was the biggest WITCH to me and for reasons unknown lol I was literally so nice and respectful to her every encounter and she was always ALWAYS rude. Are used to pay my rent early, not bother them about anything, ask for them to do stuff and when they wouldn't I wouldn't make a stink about it when I should have. It's disgusting the things that are permitted against renters and in the court of LAW. If I could give them negative infinite stars I would and I would've sued long before they tried to get me. It's a ploy to stay rich, get/force money from the poor black folk you rent to. I never even had a credit check they just took my money and let me move in. Please take a moment to view the 2 week process it took to remodel a single bathroom that still contained mold and toilet water carpets because they weren't replaced unlike my neighbors but that was only because they moved out and they were able to raise the rent. But they had just raised mine and in California you can't raise rent twice a year and they didn't want to wait so what's the easiest way? To tell me they're not accepting money from me anymore but let me sit in the house for two months without an eviction notice or allowing me to pay them. Like huh?? These are pathetic people. They had my ex-boyfriend's little brother pursuing my case at the law firm they hired, The neighbor and their employee (Stephanie) sniffing around my apartment to see what I was doing. It just got really weird was unprofessional from the start and I hope this business goes in the ground because they don't deserve to serve this community because they're doing the complete opposite anyways. This story could honestly go on forever but just know, not to waste your time renting under their umbrella.
