This has been an extremely frustrating and unacceptable experience from the start. We were…read morepressured into moving in 15 days earlier than our planned move-in date, yet the property was clearly not ready. It has now been over 40 days since we moved in, and we still have not been provided a gate code. While we were given a remote, that is not a reliable or sufficient form of access. I have already been locked out of the property and had to wait over an hour for someone to let me in because I did not have the remote on me. This is not just inconvenient--it is a basic access and safety issue. A gate code is a fundamental necessity and should have been provided prior to move-in, especially given that we were asked to move in early. The lack of urgency to resolve something this simple is extremely concerning. On top of that, communication has been consistently poor. There are no proactive updates, and we are forced to repeatedly follow up just to get basic information, with little to no resolution. At this point, it reflects a serious lack of organization, professionalism, and regard for tenants. If this is how basic issues are handled, it raises major concerns about how more serious matters would be addressed. I would strongly caution anyone considering renting through this company. This situation should never have been allowed to go on this long, and I expect immediate action to resolve it.

Please note that this review was flagged by Krystle Properties and removed because I didn't specify…read morehow I'd been a customer of Krystle Properties although it clearly states in the quote below. I will clarify and add that Krystle DM'd me because she has no idea which property I'm writing about...It says a lot about how her company is run. "Hi Me Y. We're trying to figure out who you are so we can understand where we went so wrong with servicing you and your properties. Please let us know so that we can understand this mystery and learn from our past experiences. Thank you, Krystle Karimian, CEO Krystle Properties sales@krystleproperties.com 707-342-2290" Since you asked: These are some of the issues we faced and why we fired you the first month: 1. The building had so many keys in such a disorder that we had to go unit by unit to confirm that it was the correct key. This included front and back doors, mailbox keys, basement keys, and excess storage keys, so you can imagine the mess. The labels were tangled and some had become wet and therefore couldn't be read. Key labeling may seem insignificant but when there is an emergency and you need to access a unit, garage, etc. it becomes very important. 2. The maintenance on the property was horrific. The tenants explained that the yard had been left unmaintained throughout their tenure which made it difficult for them to access their units, storage, garbage, garages, etc. Why, Krystle? This lowers the rent you can get on a location and will cost only $100-$500/mo for a reliable gardening service. That's nothing when you are considering this is a commercial property. Why wouldn't you explain that to an owner to HELP THEM? 3. The windows in many of the units had been painted shut and were therefore inoperable. (Some of the tenants liked this as it allowed them to hotbox more effectively. LOL. ) This is a fire hazard along with something that lowers the property value, since people want a home that functions properly. 4. The backdoor screens were all broken. EVERY ONE. Either the latches didn't work, they were bent and didn't close properly, or the screens had holes (from the cats and dogs), making them nonfunctional. This contributed to the "cheap" vibe and was an easily fixable annoyance. 5. Rentable space. There were garages and storage areas that were not being rented. Why? This represented a +5% increase in property income, which almost paid for Krystle's services. Why wouldn't you mention that to the owner? It would have been nice to have your services covered in the increased rent. 6. This building is in a highly desirable location and rents were 20-50% under-market, with NO CHANGES TO THE BUILDING and, at the time, no rent control. Why, Krystle? I started bumping rents the first year and couldn't believe how quickly the units rented. It is now a VERY profitable building, largely because YOUR TEAM DIDN'T EXPLAIN TO THE OWNER THAT HE HAD A GOLDMINE. It just needed tidying, good maintenance, and some aesthetics. 7. ALL the tenants hated your team. They didn't like the $50 charges for things like replacing batteries. (I have smoke alarms checked 2x a year as a standard part of maintenance and safety.) The tenants felt disrespected and ignored. They knew how nice the property could be but felt mentioning anything to you or your team would NOT result in anything being fixed. Here is my original review, for those interested, and I've attached a photo of my previous review and their other location where there is much more information: "Ugghhh. Just started looking for a PM for our Benicia property. Be forewarned that a MAJOR reason Vallejo's properties aren't in "above the rent a crack dealer can afford" is due to Krystle Properties management philosophy. (This comment was said to me by a tenant as an explanation for the condition of the property when I purchased a residential commercial property managed by Krystle Properties.) After speaking with my new tenant community, one of the first things I did was fire Krystle. That year I raised the rents 20%, fixed the broken screens, hired a gardener, and fixed the unsightly repairs done by her "team", and began to build a plan for the property to shine. The results speak for themselves... The Cap Rate went from 7% to 25% in 5 yrs. Yes, I'm not kidding about how badly marketed and managed this place was!!! Given they'd been managing it for +6 years, they also cost the seller $X00,000 during the sale, since Cap Rates drive commercial property pricing. If you are considering a PM for your rental, understand that KPM thinks all potential/current tenants are beneath them and will treat them as such. There are also more incentives for PMs to have turnover than to set the rental rates high enough to provide quality maintenance to attract tenants with high incomes and job security. We are going into a deep recession. You need to be VERY careful with who you choose to partner with during this coming era."

I lived at Water's Edge Apartments for about two years (February 2024-February 2026) in a…read moreone-bedroom apartment and recently moved out. Overall, the apartments are a decent size and noticeably larger than the average one-bedroom apartments in the area. The appliances are good and the units have been renovated, although the building itself is older. The building does not have A/C, but it was not a major issue since the weather is only warm for about a month during the year. My experience with signing the lease, moving in, and maintenance during my time there was generally good. I especially want to thank the maintenance technician, Riccardo. He is one of the best maintenance professionals I have ever dealt with, very helpful, prompt, and professional whenever something needed attention. During the two years I lived there, the property management changed several times (around 3-4 different teams), which made communication and policies somewhat inconsistent. The biggest issue occurred during my final renewal period. The rent was increased by $200, and the notice was given at 5 PM on the last day before the holidays. When I tried to discuss or negotiate the increase, I was told the office would not be able to respond until January 5th, which was already within the window for giving my 30-day notice. Additionally, the lease renewal letter stated that there was no option for a month-to-month tenancy. This was in contrast to what was written in my lease agreement, which indicated that the lease would automatically convert to a month-to-month arrangement if a new lease was not signed on time. Unfortunately, my experience with the new property manager, Arnetta, was very negative. I found her to be rude, dismissive, and unresponsive. I went to the office twice to try to discuss the situation. The second time, even though the office door indicated they were open, she asked me to leave and come back 45 minutes later because she was in a class. Overall, I felt I was not treated with respect during these interactions. Other staff members in the office, including Paul and Alyssa (Mika), were respectful and helpful, but my experience with Arnetta was extremely disappointing. Eventually I was told there was no possibility of negotiating the rent increase, so I gave my notice. Shortly after, I noticed that my same apartment was listed online for $100 less than what I had been offered, along with a promotion of two weeks of free rent. If that price had been offered to me and the interaction had been more respectful, I likely would have stayed because I truly liked the apartment and the view was very nice. Another issue occurred after move-out when I received a bill of about $1,200 that included charges for carpet replacement in the living room and stain removal and shampooing of the bedroom carpet. The bedroom carpet was extremely clean and almost like new. After I raised concerns and referenced the photos they provided, the stain removal charge was removed, but the shampoo charge remained. There were many emails back and forth regarding the carpet replacement charge. I asked for documentation, move-in inspection reports, and photos, and also referenced California law regarding normal wear and tear. There were also inconsistencies in the explanations I received, for example, one email said the stain removal was for the bedroom, while another email said it was for the living room, which I found unusual. Eventually, after further review, they stated that the reason for the carpet replacement was "severe buckling." This was an issue that had existed since I moved in and appeared to be related to installation rather than damage. That charge was ultimately removed, leaving only the carpet shampoo charge. Overall, I genuinely liked the apartment and the location, and it is unfortunate that my experience ended this way. The apartment itself was comfortable and the view was great. However, the way the lease renewal process was handled and the way I was treated during that time ultimately led me to move out. I hope the ownership takes tenant experience into consideration when selecting future management.

Nothing pure about this tainted company. I would not recommend renting through Pure Management…read more(formerly KBT). From the beginning, maintenance issues were handled poorly. Within our first couple of months, our shower clogged. Maintenance hired someone to snaked the drain. They pulled out some hair, and charged us for it. Meanwhile, they ignored the fact that the shower wall was peeling thick plastic into the bathtub where my toddler bathes. They never believed those plastic chips were contributing to the clog. I was repeatedly promised the shower wall would be repaired by Kimberly Prindle & Joseph Estafanous, but when management changed, I was told by Kristin Gentile that there was no record of those promises, even after I provided documentation. Our refrigerator never worked properly despite three repair attempts. It either froze our food or let it spoil. Eventually, I bought my own thermometer and figured out how to work around the problem because it was never fixed. We also paid for a service that included A/C filter deliveries, which eventually stopped. When I asked about it, Pure simply told me to contact a third party myself. If I'm paying Pure for the service, why am I doing the follow-up? When we gave our 30-day notice, they suddenly required professional cleaning with a receipt, even though that wasn't in our original lease. I also requested to end our lease just 12 days early due to an emergency, and they refused any flexibility despite their repeated failures to resolve issues during our tenancy. Eventually, Kristin and her team that were cc'd in them, just stopped responding to my emails. I didn't think that was professionally of her. The overall impression is that once you sign the lease, you're just another account number. Communication was poor, documented promises were ignored, and customer service was disappointing. I won't be renting from Pure Management again.

My sister and I have rented from this Property Mgmt for close to 4 years. We constantly had to fight tooth and nail to get basic things fixed: electrical outlets, sprinklers, toilet, plumbling, cheap blinds, smoke detectors, mold in the carpets, power surging through the electrical outlets that exploded light bulbs and spewed burning debris all over the carpet leaving burn marks. Management constantly blaming us for disrepair to the point that Sacramento Code Enforcement had to be contacted to get things FIXED. John Tiner, Crystal Tiner, Melissa Watermolen and Mgr. Susan are not to be trusted. Even after finally moving and leaving the hell hole this Mgmt company stole $300 from our deposit and blamed us for the outer stucco of the house crumbling which had styrofoam underneath! They claimed that we damaged the house. THE HOUSE WAS FALLING APART. The outer stucco and styrofoam was crumbling on its own. Needless to say we have no recourse to get our money back after being falsely blamed. John Tiner does not care. This company has thousands and thousands of properties that they manage. So do not think for a minute they will care about a renter or an owner about properly taking care of homes. I have no idea if the owners even understood how poorly the house was managed. Especially since we were on time responsible renters without being late even once. I had paid thousands into landscaping and tree cutting per the contract. And by the way, the owners no longer are using Tiner as a Management Company because they are God Awful! Again Beware. Our experience with this company was horrible! Please save yourselves agony and $$$$. And there is absolutely nothing to discuss with this company. There is nothing they can ever do or say to compensate for the unprofessional and lying behavior straight from the Top right on down to the bottom.
