Tiffany and the team at Thomas Realtors are excellent. Friendly, professional, quick to respond...what more can you ask for? I also loved my apartment and thought that the rent was reasonable. I couldn't have asked for a better property management company for my first apartment in San Diego. I was honestly bummed when I had to move because I enjoyed working with them so much. When I decide to move again, I will 100% go back to Tiffany to see what she has to offer! Highly recommend - two thumbs up! read more

OH, We sabotage our own property on a daily basis. Pictures really do speak for themselves... This is how THOMAS treats their customers, blames them for sabotaging their own property.... Unbelievable ! The criminals are at THOMAS, lie, twist facts and information to protect their own business / personal interests. They will not pay for any of your potential damages or lost rent, which is not surprising based on their history and lousy performance in the North Park area...More of the same from THOMAS, recent reviews speak for themselves.... read more

See all

Juli at Thomas Realtors is an absolute pleasure. In the 7.5 years I've rented from them, she has always been responsive and quick to answer questions or resolve issues. I've rented from many property management companies in the past and this by far has been the best. The things I appreciated the most: 1. Juli never seems to have a bad day. She's always happy, always friendly, and always eager to help. 2. Everyone else in the office is super friendly too. 3. Thomas Realtors takes care of its properties. Any issues or concerns with my apartment or the overall property were addressed and remedied immediately. 4. You can pay your rent online. 5. The application and approval process was fast and easy. I live in a small apartment complex and our neighbors are friendly and we chat. Everyone here has nothing but nice things to say about Juli and Thomas Realtors. I'm moving out of state but plan on coming back to San Diego in the not so distant future. My first phone call will be to Julie at Thomas Realtors. No joke. read more

Back in 2005, my husband and I were looking for something a little bigger and we somehow got introduced to Hal Thomas, the founder of Thomas realty. He rented us a little home on 28th Street and we had our first baby there. Unfortunately, we had to move because they needed to do major repairs on the roof and foundation but they gave us 60 days notice. We moved to City heights and lived there for two years and when I got pregnant with my daughter, I just happen to remember Thomas realty so I called and told him that we used to rent from Hal and I ended up speaking with Travis, Hal's son who took over. I told him that we used to rent from his dad and what we were looking for and he asked me how much I was currently paying and when I told him, he told me that there was a two-bedroom on Illinois Street that was that price and I could go look at it but "keep in mind that there was no carpet and no appliances." My husband, little son and I walked in there and I knew we loved it. We will be at this house 12 years in February! We don't really ask for too much but anything we've ever asked for, Thomas realty addresses quickly and professionally. I recommend Thomas realty to anybody whoever asks me about rentals. We are super grateful to Thomas realty for raising our rent so little in 12 years! read more

Thomas Realtors - Decorated for Halloween - Property Management Near Me - San Diego, California

Tiffany is a fantastic property manager. She always responded super quickly and made sure we had everything we needed. I could tell that she also really cared for the property she managed and the owners of the house. Our experience was smooth and easy. read more

I can fully recommend Thomas Realtors. I lived in one of their properties for almost 7 years. They are responsive, timely, and friendly. Any issue I had was heard and promptly fixed the next day. Every employee I interacted with greeted me and was responsive to my needs. The full process from applying to moving out was reasonable, fair, and quick. I would confidently recommend them to anyone who asked. read more

I cannot say ENOUGH about Thomas Realtors. I used them as my property managers for my condo and they were a dream to work with. Derek managed all issues with my tenants and property and only contacted me as needed. He was always kind and reasonable and I felt had both my and the tenants best interests in mind (which is hard to balance). I never had to worry about my condo and it was so easy. They truly manage the property and it was a joy to work with them. I would recommend them to anyone!!!! read more

Thomas Realtors are the BEST landlords. They're so friendly and easy going. Their online portal is user friendly and makes it easy to pay your rent, get renters insurance, report maintenance issues. They truly make the effort to make you feel at home and accommodated. I personally communicated with Ed. He's the sweetest man. I can't say enough good things about him and Thomas Realtors. I will miss them being my landlords for sure. Thank you!! read more

Our experience with Juli and Thomas Realtors was perfect. Property issues are handled in a timely and professional manner no matter how small. In a booming rental market there is no reason to work with a property manager who is not professional and sensitive to owner and tenant's needs. read more

Tiffany Patton managed our property when we made a sudden move to NYC. Over the course of the 4 years we were across the country, we were never once worried or uncertain about the state of our house. Tiffany did a wonderful job with literally everything -- she is an excellent communicator, she marketed the heck out of our property (and negotiated an impressive monthly rent on our behalf), has a great network of contractors to help fix the inevitable problems that arise in a 90 year-old-house, and, most impressively, managed a particularly needy tenant with an uncommon patience and grace. My wife and I have recently moved back and into our house, and Tiffany oversaw a smooth and painless transition as we resumed residency at our property. We are so grateful for Tiffany and the team at Thomas Realtors, and cannot recommend them enough. We look forward to working with them again in the future! read more

One of the last affordable apartments in South Pa it's simply convenient it's walking distance to everything that South Park has to offer, especially target express and South Park Abbey. Tiffany was our agent and she was always extremely helpful. They run there office family style and that was quite refreshing moving to a new city. Also, I receive my entire deposit back minus a cleaning fee. In my experience usually apartments try to find every reason to keep your deposit and that was not the case with Thomas Realtors. Honest, friendly and responsive is how I would describe this groups A1 service. read more

We rented our first apartment in San Diego from Thomas Realtors, Tiffany was our contact person. She was a pleasure to work with from the very beginning. I had originally called about a different property which turned out to not fit our needs but she made some suggestions for other properties we might like. She also made an effort to get me more detailed info and let my friend go and take photos, since we were moving from out of town. When we decided to sign the lease we were required to post an additional deposit, since we could not provide income verification (we were moving from another state and did not have jobs lined up.) I was a little worried that we would have trouble getting the deposit back, but once we sent in pay stubs from our jobs we got the extra deposit back right away, no hassles. We did have some maintenance issues and the quality of the building itself was less than stellar, which is why I deducted 1 star. But can you really blame the management company if the owner refuses to invest in fixing it up? When we had to call about maintenance issues, they responded promptly (for the most part) and did their best to fix everything. When we moved out, Tiffany said we would have to pay to get the carpets cleaned but she had a guy that would do it for cheap, and the guy was there when she was doing the inspection. She also told me on the move out exactly what I would be charged for a few small items (light bulbs, oven pans) and when we got our deposit back she included the Home Depot receipt for the items (we were not upcharged some outrageous amount.) In general I felt they were very responsive, Tiffany was super nice, but most importantly they were honest and did not try to rip us off. I have had some horrible landlord experiences (really unbelievable) and Thomas Realtors is the best thus far. read more

Ed is extremely unprofessional. We spoke multiple times on the phone regarding a specific property. He let us know that it was ours because he already had our application and approved it. I offered to pay in full the day of and move in immediately. I was willing to meet him right away. My bf had some qualms with the paint job which Ed said he understood and would ask the owner if he would take some money off for us to paint it ourselves but we mentioned we still wanted the property if the owner didn't want us to paint. He said he would call us back once he spoke with the owner. He never called back and apparently took someone else's application and payment that same day! I'm sick to my stomach that someone could do that knowing how much we wanted the property. I spent the whole night packing and now my living room is boxes until we find our next home. We are just a young couple trying to start a family. I guess thats how he does business. I'm sure he doesn't care. Please be aware before negotiating with Ed. read more

Thomas Realtors - Property Management Near Me - San Diego, California

I would like to first state that Juli at Thomas Realtors has been a pleasure to work with over our years of renting with their company. She has tended to our every need and request to make sure we were taken care of. Out of all my past experiences with being a renter, I have never been treated so well. Thank you to the whole team for being so great. I highly recommend checking in with Thomas Realtors for your rental needs. They will find you a great place. read more

Great experience with Thomas realtors. Always friendly property managers and quick to address any problems that arise. Highly recommend.

I have had Thomas Realtors as the property management company for the home that I am renting. They're all great people to work with and very responsive to any need that I have had. If you're looking for a property management company, I highly recommend Thomas Realtors. Thank you, Juli & Tiffany, for all you do. I sincerely appreciate it. read more

In my opinion, Thomas Realtors are the worst property management company I have ever encountered. We lived in a property managed by Thomas Realtors, and a major plumbing renovation was initiated. The owner of the company, Travis, contacted us and basically told us that the owner of the building had contracted plumbers to do 2-3 days of work in our unit, but he would be out of town during the whole ordeal and we would need to contact the plumbers ourselves to make the arrangements! This complete mis-management [or utter lack of management] of a major renovation led to an extended two-week fiasco in which our home was nearly uninhabitable and all of our possessions were covered in dry-wall dust including an entire pantry full of ruined food, not to mention that our downstairs plumbing was left inoperable [washer & dryer disconnected, toilet in back yard]. When we dared to ask for some kind of compensation for the two weeks worth of being forced to eat out at restaurants, dry-cleaning expenses for dust-covered clothing and bedding, professional cleaning of electronic devices, ruined food and the general discomfort and inconvenience we had to endure, Thomas Realtors told us [and I am paraphrasing here] that if we didn't like it, we could go ahead and break our lease and move out! This was the most heinous of their inept management skills, but our entire experience with them was filled with a multitude of poor responsiveness to our needs as tenants; when we called to complain that the weeds in the walkway were now above our heads, the reply was that the landscaper was some guy the owner hired and they didn't know anything about it. Completely unacceptable! A property management company's responsibility is to manage the property to the satisfaction of both the owner and the tenants; all Thomas Realtors managed to do was pass the buck. If you are a tenant searching for an apartment or house to rent, avoid it at all costs if Thomas Realtors is the property manager. If you are a property owner looking for a management company, there are undoubtedly a hundred superior companies in San Diego that are more competent and will represent you and your property with professionalism and consideration for your tenants. read more

Ed Patton and the team at Thomas Realtors are great to have as property managers. Whenever we have a problem, they get it resolved quickly. Thanks!! read more

I'm still living in the apartment I rented through them and Craig has continued to be an awesome person. the apartment is fantastic, and any maintenance I need I just need to call. read more

Terrible property management. Please look elsewhere or don't say you weren't warned. They don't do much to upkeep properties but will gladly take your money. Shop around and compare - you'll be glad you did. read more

I rented from Thomas Realtors, and they were one of the best property managers I've encountered. Ed was the person I worked with primarily, but everyone else in the office was friendly and helpful when I interacted with them. They gave us flexibility on move-in dates, a reasonable price and terms, and any time there were issues in the apartment they sent someone right away to fix them. They also returned the majority of the deposit, keeping just $65 for cleaning which I thought was reasonable. I'm no longer renting, but I'd definitely go back to them if I were. read more

Last year I was searching for the perfect place that felt like home and in a good area to feel safe when I get home late at night. I came across a condo on craigslist that Thomas realtors were the rep for. I contacted them and spoke with Julie. Let me tell you, she is amazing at her job and deserves more recognition than this review. For the past year any silly problems, questions, concerns I have had; she had taken care of me minutes after contacting her! Not only always getting the job or situation fixed she always has the best attitude. Once I get my own place again she is the reason I will go through them for renting out any place they represent. Also the people they hire to fix a/c, light fixtures are all amazing and genuine. It was a good unforgettable experience working with Thomas realtors! read more

This is the worst place to go to to rent a house/apartment! We rented a house from them for 5 1/2 years! Whenever something needed to get fixed that was obviously because the house was old they always ended up charging us for it even tho it wasn't out fault! Worst service ever! The house we rented flooded like 4+ times and every time somehow it was out fault and the water would leave nasty spots on the carpet that would obviously stain but according to them it was dog pee lol!!!! Stupid people!!! When we moved out she told us not to worry about a few things and ended up charging us everything that she said not to worry about and then some! She charged us for a fence that they ended up tearing down and not even using at the end! They r a rip off and they never take care of the houses if they need some TLC. She knew the house was full of termites and never did anything about it!!! Go somewhere else!! U will end up paying way more if something ends up needing to get fixed and they will keep a big chunk of ur deposit!!!! read more

I have been renting from Thomas Realtors for almost 3 years. They have been the best landlords I have ever had. Any time there is any kind of problem they are very responsive to fix the issue. Ed Patton has always been very helpful to me. read more

A++ Tiffany and Staff are very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend Thomas Realtors

Thomas Realtors is an excellent company. My husband and I rented our first apartment from them and had a very good experience. Any repairs needed were done the day we called, they were always available for questions and very friendly. We rented from Travis and then Julie, and we're very happy with the customer service we received. We had never rented before and Travis was super helpful. He was clear and honest about everything that we needed to do to cover our stuff, and what was expected from us in terms of living in the property. We would recommend then to anyone and will never rent from anyone else. read more

I am writing a review as a property owner and couldn't be happier with my start with Thomas Realtors. I know for a fact the tenants are happy as well. They manage two properties for me in San Diogo. Travis and Juli have been attentive to all details and delivered everything they promised. I rest easy in New York knowing the properties and tenants are in great hands. I interviewed a number of agencies and Thomas has proved the best. I would recommend them highly to any other property owner looking for a management company and to tenants to rent a property managed by them. read more

Fantastic place you looking for a property to rent this is the place to go they're always helpful and ready to take care of any maintenance need that might come up from your rental girls always on top of things and treat you like a part of the family read more

Travis is the best Landlord ever! We have been at his property for 7 going on 8 years and i am always impressed.

I want to highly recommend and thank Thomas Realtors for such outstanding service in which they provided me for several years! I had the pleasure of utilizing them for both property management and real estate services. My first experience was my job relocation to Seattle, I met Tiffany Patton, who came over to see my condo that I wanted to rent out the same day I called! Tiffany is very kind, professional, a great communicator, realistic, and fun! I had a flawless experience my 2 yrs having Tiffany manage my property. At the end of 2 years I decided to sell my property. My realtor was Eydie Chapman. I ended up needing some essential repair work completed when it first went on the market... between Tiffany (who knew my property better than I did), and Eydie they took care of many items for me... I never once came to San Diego to handle anything. During the selling process Eydie was informative, professional, and I really trusted her expertise in the field. Happy to say I sold my property just a couple months ago. Thank you Tiffany and Eddie! read more

I have been renting from Thomas Realtors for years. They are the best property managers around. Always understanding, always looking out for you and your comfort. Tiffany and Juli have always found places that exactly fit my needs. I recommend everyone I know looking for an apartment to seek there rentals and know you will be satisfied! !! read more

found them on Yelp and very happy I did. Competitive pricing, excellent customer service. They make you feel you are their only customer and I know they are very busy. 100% recommend. Very professional and completely trust them with our house! read more

I would recommend anyone to use Thomas Realtors. Tiffany is my property manager and provides excellent service!! I had a maintenance issue and it was resolved in a very timely manner. The HOA our condo has is not the best but Tiffany made sure we would not slip thru the cracks. She was going to get our issue resolved. It was a painless, stress free experience. She was genuinely concerned and is always pleasant to speak to. read more

I will never be able to say enough about how amazing Thomas Realtors is. We rented from them for 2.5 years and never would have left if life didn't give us opportunities elsewhere. We mostly dealt with Tiffany during our rental period and she is PHENOMENAL! Tiffany is kind, concise, and quick with communication. Anytime we needed anything, she was on top of it! Maintenance issues were always handled in a timely manner, we were always given adequate notice for anyone that needed to be at our property and no one ever entered our unit without consent to do so. When we had an issue with a horrible roommate, Tiffany was helpful in explaining what we needed to do in order to swap roommates and made the transition as smooth as possible. I would recommend this property management company to anyone who is in need of renting, buying, or management services. We will deeply miss working with Thomas Realtors and they will always be the #1 referral on our list for all property needs!! read more

My bedroom reaked of animal urine. This was a issue I altered the property manager of on day 1 of moving in. The smell would come and go, and when he happened to have stopped by on the first day he didn't smell it. I think because of this, he didn't believe me. I had to pester him to get people over to look into the issue, and every single contractor that came in would confirm that I wasn't making it up or being too sensitive. This became a six month battle with the property manager not properly dealing with the animal waste problem. He would try a lot of quick-fixes which ultimately wouldn't work. I understand wanting to try the cheap option first, but whenever one of these attempt would fail it would take me emailing him 2-3 times before he would try something else. Many of the contractors he hired were very professional, but one left opened up a hole in my bedroom wall, getting dry wall debris everywhere and not cleaning it up, and left it with no promised date of when he was going to patch it up. This hole, which was created to remove the insulation (which REAKED of urine), was left open to 'air it out', however the smell in my bedroom after creating the hole did not air out. If anything it got worse, and the source of the smell moved. The smell was so intense I had to move out until it was fixed. A week went by, the hole was still open, and I had not been contacted about when it would be patched up. After threatening legal action, they provided me with dates it would be fixed, but in total I was displaced from my home for 21 days, still paid rent though. When the hole was patched up the wall was painted in two different colors and the sockets were hastily completed. After months of dealing with this, I got the impression that my property manager was just kind of lazy and wanted me to go away. Once while on the phone about this issue he actually said to me,"Well, what do you want me to do about it?" I didn't say this, but all I could think was "This is your job, your whole job. You are the one who is suppose to know what to do about it, not me." After I told him that the smell had migrated, which is kind of a clear indication that there's something living in the walls of the building, a building that he manages entirely, he didn't respond. Halfway through my lease, after the smell had predictably returned, I asked to be let out of my contract. It was granted. Why this isn't a one star rating is that the property manager allowed me to take me time to find a new place (I travel a lot) instead of kicking me out right away, he returned my security deposit in full, and he split the electricity utilities with me for the hotter summer months since the AC helped keep the urine smell to a minimum. read more

Thomas Realtors is the best. I rented from them for five years and never had to wait at all no matter what needed to be done. They made sure that all my needs were met and helped me a great deal with the move in arrangements and even when I moved out they were helpful in making sure that they personally walked through with me to make sure that anything the landlord might want to deduct was brought to my attention so that I could fix it. I received my full deposit back quickly and they even went out of the way to let me know when other apartments became available while I was looking for a new location. My only complaint would be that I wasn't able to find one in one of their managed complexes. I hated to lose them as my property manager. They are the finest I have ever had the pleasure to work with. They are honest, professional and very kind and compassionate. Thank you Thomas Realtors for a great five years. read more

I dealt with Thomas Realtors as a tenant for the last 12 months and can say that the whole team there will go out of their way to look out for your best interests. They are knowledgeable of the rental market and responsive to my needs during or outside of office hours. Very professionally run using common sense to make decisions, and the manager there, Ed, is a class act. read more

Very unhappy with their service. They employ companies that are not licensed and they rarely return calls. They charge too much for their services and their staff is not friendly. I do not recommend. read more
