Diana at The Rental Xperts leased us a nice house in Encinitas. Seven years later, it was time for…read moreus downsize. We moved out last week. Our impressions from start to finish: - Diana and her team are straight shooters: never over-promised, always over-delivered. With quick replies to questions, and solid resolutions. Every time. - We've had landlords who treated us like adversaries from day one, and others who went there the first time we reported a maintenace issue. In seven years, through Covid, multiple lease renewals, and few expensive maintenance issues, Diana never once went adversarial. Always polite, friendly, kind, and clearly committed to keeping us safe and satisfied. Even when we disagreed a couple times, she took the high road. (So we had no excuse but to do likewise.) - Moving out is hell. But Diana and her team made this move feel more like "heck" :) They checked in to see how we were doing, and went out of their way to time tours with prospective new tenants and visits from maintenance people to fit our schedule. And in the final walkthrough, when Diana caught a couple big things we had missed in our cleaning, she let us come back the next day to take care of them. So she wouldn't have to charge them against our deposit. (This was a first for us. - Another first: While we were searching for our next home, Diana volunteered to write us a letter of recommendation to prospective landlords. She didn't embellish (see "straight-shooter" above) -- just described her experience as our landlord. After several slow responses from various landlords, we got an immediate Yes from the first landlord who read the letter. Bottom line: If you're a square-dealer looking for a non-adversarial landlord-tenant relationship with same, Diana and The Rental Xperts are your kind of people.

We had planned to move out at the end of our lease to a new home we were building, and several times we had a construction delay and had to extend our lease last minute. Diana was super patient and worked with our ever-changing schedule - and we were able to stay in the condo without issue. Otherwise we would have had to stay at a hotel or with relatives for months. During the years we were there, she was responsive and helpful. When we were finally ready to move out, the process was so easy and the cleaning fees/move-out fees were fair with no surprises. I highly recommend The Rental Xperts whether you need a rental or are looking for a renter!

I have 2 neighbors who are also renting their homes out, but both of their Prop Mgrs are duping them out of money and not getting to issues their tenants are having. I hear it from both sides, tenant and owner. There are so many management companies out there who are trying to make money on things they shouldn't. Like repairs. Andy uses great people for carpet, painting and home cleaning and they're all decently priced. Every time I've called Andy, he's picked up the phone or called me back fast. He's a one-guy operation and does it so well. He doesn't make me feel stupid with certain questions or concerns I have and always puts me at ease. Thank you Andy.

After doing my research we decided to go with Good Life and I am so glad we did they made the process very easy. Malissa Martinez was my onboarding point of contact and I have to say she was very attentive, responsive and professional. She answered all my questions and kept me informed the next steps in the process. Emails came in daily with the updates that had been completed at my home in order to be put on the market. After that my property managment team consisted of Andrei Lechert- Kelly, Gerald Medalla and CJ Flores. Again, more professionalism with this team. Once the property was ready and we agreed on the rental price my home was listed on a Wednesday and by that weekend, Saturday, we have the home rented. It's been 5 months and I have no complaints. They have really taken care of everything and I haven't had to worry about a thing since. Highly recommend Good Life. 10 outta 10.

I was very motivated to rent the home, and even noted in my application I'd be willing to pay above the listed price. Well a full day goes by and I heard nothing so I called for a status update. The woman on the phone wasn't sure what the status was and said to call back the next day. So I waited and called the next day and spoke to another rep on the phone who seemed just as clueless. I emphasized that I had applied 48 hours ago and wanted to know what my application status was. He said he'd have someone call me back with an update. That evening no phone call, but a form email saying another tenant was signing a lease and I'd be notified if it falls through. I'm very certain I was the first to apply to this property, but they did not follow protocol of screening applications in the order of receipt. Then the lack of follow up and sounding completely clueless about the status of applications was extremely frustrating. I suppose I dodged a bullet not renting from Good Life. I feel bad for the property owner of the home as they would have gotten more in rent from me, and I was ready to sign the lease immediately. Good Life needs to learn better customer service support.

I deal with a lot of property managers that manage rentals and vacation homes. Many owners ask me for referrals for management companies that do both monthly rentals and vacation rentals. With all the companies I work with the only ones I could truly recommend is Beachy Keen Rentals and Realty. As we all know when you recommend a company your reputation is on the line, so I do take this seriously. In all the years I have recommended Beachy Keen Rentals and Realty. I have never gotten 1 complaint from an owner, everyone was 100% happy with this company, that is why I continue to recommend them. I cannot say enough about Beachy Keen Rentals and Realty. I am very pleased to write this letter to express my appreciation for Beachy Keen Rental and Realty and the exceptional property management services they provide. This company does an outstanding job managing both vacation rentals and monthly rental properties. They are professional, dependable, responsive, and genuinely committed to taking care of the properties they manage. It is clear that they take great pride in their work and understand how important it is for property owners to have someone they can trust. What impresses me most is their attention to detail and their willingness to go above and beyond. Whether they are dealing with vacation guests, monthly tenants, maintenance issues, or the everyday responsibilities that come with managing a property, they handle everything with professionalism and care. Their communication is excellent, and they make the process much easier for property owners. Knowing that a property is in capable hands provides tremendous peace of mind. I would highly recommend Beachy Keen Rental and Realty to anyone looking for a property management company. Their dedication, professionalism, and commitment to excellent customer service truly set them apart.

Update: Thank you for responding. I am glad you are a new owner. Are you affiliated in any way…read morewith previous owners? Do you have the records for previous owners? I know you must think the statute of limitations is over, but, in your good faith, I feel as though you should inherit and rectify some of the previous management's transgressions and reimburse me. I was a struggling single mom. Do you still manage 2233 Manchester, in Cardiff? I also left a portable dishwasher, which was there when I moved in. Hunter Property Management asked me about it, thinking it was mine. They were probably going to also charge me for leaving it! I just have a hard time getting over liars and cheaters. I am now retired and on a fixed income. I was taken advantage of; I couldn't afford to miss work to go to Small Claims Court, at the time. ***************************** I rented an apartment from a lovely older woman property manager, Bonnie, in Cardiff. In fact, my daughter and I had rented a smaller 2 bedroom, 1bath in Solana Beach, where we lived for years. The original property manager suggested we move to a bigger apartment, also 2 bedrooms 1 bath, same owners. My deposit from our previous apartment, which we left very clean, went toward the second, two story apartment. Sadly, Bonnie, the sweet little old lady manager died. Then the owners, who supposedly had over a thousand units, altogether, hired Hunter Property Management. They were TERRIBLE. They wanted a key. I said no. They wanted to go in when I wasn't present. When I gave notice I was leaving, they wanted to show the place. That wasn't in my lease! I don't think they had a copy of my lease. Someone literally tried to break in while I was at work. I was commuting an hour each way, to and from work, in Fallbrook, back then! Before we left, my (young adult) daughter had actually hired a maid, but that was after I cleaned thoroughly. Instead of getting my deposit back (I was in that apartment for over 5 years!) I got less than half back. Hunter Property had a bad reputation of raising everyone's rents, and not giving back deserved deposits. The woman at Hunter Property Management lied and said she hired a maid service! A receipt WITHOUT AN ADDRESS was provided to me for the maid and a window washer. We could not wash the outside upstairs windows. The "townhouse" was over a garage, so I had to walk up a flight of stairs to get to my front door. An interior flight of stairs led to our bedrooms. The inside of the windows was clean. Also, although I cleaned the carpet, it had one small red stain. Again, it was barely visible, and would have been considered normal wear and tear, after over 5 years! Hunter Property Management again lied. After I moved out, when I got the bogus letter lying about alleged damages, I went back to the apartment, before it was rented. I still had a key, although we turned in the original. The key worked, so I entered. Hunter Property Management lied and had said they had "patched the rug" with a piece of rug from a downstairs closet. They did no such thing! Although the carpet was in decent shape, after so many years,they could and should have replaced the entire carpet! It wasn't new when I moved in! i was younger; I foolishly hadn't taken photos. I trusted Bonnie, and didn't think she'd die! Moreover, I thought I couldn't afford to miss work. I considered taking Hunter Property Management to small claims court. I wish I had. In all the years I rented, I was a few days late paying only one rent check. So a late fee was also deducted. But $250 meant a great deal to me back then. I was disgusted with the lies. I was there from the later 80's until 91. The dollar was worth a lot more back then! Thankfully, now I own my home. Anyone renting, especially from Hunter Properties should take photos, do a walk through, if possible. In closing, I notice this company changed its name from Hunter Property Management to Hunter Properties. I suspect this is so all the previous bad reviews, including mine, don't show up!

None of the other places I applied for provided that. 10/10 experience with them
