Their customer service is top-notch--they're always responsive, professional, and genuinely helpful whenever I have questions or need assistance. Maintenance requests are handled promptly, and the staff always treats residents with respect and kindness. What I appreciate most is that they make living here a positive experience. They care about their tenants and work hard to keep the property well-managed and comfortable. It's one of the reasons I've chosen to stay for so long. I would definitely recommend 101 Property Mgmt to anyone looking for a property management company that values its residents.

Avoid this place -- premium rent, poor living conditions, and unfair management…read more I lived in a so-called premium Apartment E and paid one of the highest rents in the complex, yet the living conditions were terrible. The unit was a heat trap with no fan or proper ventilation, even though other units in the complex do have fans. I often felt suffocated. Management was informed and took no action. The apartment is located near the parking area, and the unit was constantly full of dust no matter how often I cleaned. There was also frequent management and maintenance noise around Apartment E, making the "premium" label misleading. The toilet clogged almost every week, even with very light and normal use. This was a recurring issue that was never properly resolved. Before moving out, I wiped down all furniture surfaces, and the unit was left in good condition. Despite this, I was charged 5.5 hours of "general cleaning" for a studio apartment, which is completely unreasonable. Carpet cleaning was not even counted in that 5.5 hours. I formally requested a pre-move-out inspection, asked to be present, and requested 48-hour notice. None of this was honored. When I went to the office on a weekday before move-out, it was closed without notice, so I was never given a chance to address any concerns in advance. The cleaning was done about 10 days after I moved out, raising concerns that the hours charged reflect dust accumulation over time rather than my move-out condition. When I questioned this, management pushed responsibility onto the cleaning company instead of explaining or correcting the charge. After that, management stopped responding. Even returning the undisputed portion of my security deposit was delayed and required repeated follow-ups. High rent, poor living conditions, constant issues, and unfair deposit practices. Avoid this place and rent elsewhere.

Most horrific property management company I've had to deal with…read more First off: Communication. - It takes days to receive a response (if you even get one back, that is). - Once you do manage to get a hold of them they'll either give a pathetic attempt at answering the question through utilizing a general (and sometimes inaccurate) response or downright brush you off. Next up: Rentals. (I've only lived at my own rental (but I've visited my neighbors' units which SFM also owns) so I can only speak for those.) - It's quite literally trash lmao. The laundry unit has a giant trash can in it that has never been emptied in the entire year that I lived at that unit. Trash is all over the floor and it's frankly just disgusting. - The actual rental unit itself was gross as well. SFM claims to have cleaned it beforehand but when the floors are grimy, blinds are dusty, and fridges are rusty that's more than a bit hard to believe. - WHY is everything BRoKeN, SFM?!?! Fridge was barely working, stoves couldn't turn on half the time, countertops were chipped, lights wouldn't turn on, blinds were broken, sinks were leaking, bathroom vent was dripping water, the list goes on and on and mfing on. Ridiculous. Finally: Security Deposit - Half of my security deposit was deducted for painting and cleaning purposes. Paint was already chipping away at walls when I moved in, i guess it's my fault for not giving SFM free labor by helping them repaint the whole place. Like I stated above, the place was NASTY when I moved in. Like break down crying worthy kind of nasty. White walls were brown and yellow behind the master bedroom's toilet if that can help you picture what I'm talking about, so forgive me if I don't want to take photos of that, SFM. - They also cited reasons such as "missing mirror" and "broken blinds" for deposit deduction. THERE WASNT EVEN A MIRROR IN THE BATHROOM WHEN I MOVED IN LMAOOOOO LIKE BRUHHH GET UR MFING FACTS STRAIGHTT. Im not out here tryna help you refurbish your place. The blinds were already broken too, im not going to buy new blinds for you, tf? All in all: would not recommend this scammy ass company. There are so many other property management companies in IV, you're even better off finding a place further away if that means you don't have to deal with this company. Don't go with SFM. Everyone, literally EVERYONE, that I know who's gone with SFM regrets it. Don't do it.

Kamap management has treated me horribly as a tenant. I lived in the Aladdin apartments for the…read more22-23 school year. Upon moving out, Paul claimed it took 4.75 gallons of paint and 13 hours of labor to repaint the 561 square foot apartment for a total cost of $820, which was removed from my security deposit. They were unwilling to reevaluate those costs or refund me even with evidence that I left the walls in accordance with their move out instructions. In addition, I was charged for normal wear and tear issues, like a $100 replacement of those flimsy plastic vertical blinds. There are sneaky hidden fees when roommates pay for rent separately. The building itself is in dire condition. It's an accessibility nightmare, with a driveway so steep my bumper scraped the ground each time I drove to my parking spot. On the curb outside the building and in the driveway there was a constant sewage-smelling sludge that never got cleaned up. The underground laundry room always stank of sewage and the washing machines were often broken for months at a time. The interior of the apartment had next to no storage and did not have an exhaust fan above the stove. The reason that they do the "split singles" is that the second bedroom lacks a window. The walls and ceilings were incredibly thin and I could hear everything my neighbors got up to. If you have to stay here, don't expect your security deposit back, and expect to have pretty miserable living conditions.

Management will blatantly lie and blame you for everything and find ways to take your money…read more We lived in an apartment that was next to the main entrance from the parking lot at la loma. Our kitchen window was broken and they tried to pin it on us, saying that the on-site manager saw several people partying in our apartment when in reality nobody was even home that night. It wasn't until we showed them multiple pieces of evidence and a police report that they backed off but they still charged us for window repairs because it was "in the lease". No apology or anything for blaming us and trying to snake our money by lying. Super shady. Maintenance requests will end in charging you for every little thing done to the place. One good thing to come out of living here for a year is that I will now carefully read every single line of every lease I ever sign from now on. Bottom line, DONT RENT FROM THEM!

I measure how sleazy an apartment complex is by how hard they try to screw you on the security…read moredeposit when you leave. This place takes the cake. My son rented a one bedroom at the Skyview on Camino Pescadero with two of his friends. They spent almost an entire day after moving out to make sure the place was clean. First of all, the complex charges the tenant $40 per hour for an "evaluator" to look at the place. They charge a painting fee for any scuff marks they find. They also have a worksheet listing fifteen or twenty items for each room and these things are so petty. You don't just get a charge for cleaning the stove, you get separate charges for each component. For example, separate fees for cleaning the stove top, cleaning under stove burners, cleaning stove hood and light, cleaning inside oven, cleaning the back and side of oven and cleaning the oven racks/broiler pan. All together, the maximum charge just for the stove can be $42. My son lucked out and only had to pay $29 for a stove they cleaned before they left. Cleaning the back of an oven? Really? There is a potential charge of $20 per room for washing windows, separate charges (per room) for not cleaning switchplate covers, washing the window screens, cleaning the mirror on the medicine cabinet, etc. If you do stay here, don't forget to dust the top of the door frames when you leave because that will cost you $20. BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Then there is the two days downtime they charge for cleaning the place. Another $107 bye bye. This place is ridiculous....

Skyline Property Management: Six Stars - They Deliver!…read more Several years ago, as neophytes to being 'landlords', we took the recommendation of a real estate agent/friend and hired Skyline. Robert & Christy walked us through what we needed to do to prepare our rental, advised us on pricing, advertised and screened applicants for us, negotiated the rental contract and then managed the property once tenants were 'in'. They were professional, thorough and made the entire process EASY! Recently we have also seen Skyline in action from the renter's perspective when our son contacted them about an apartment they were managing. Again, Skyline's Robert & Christy were the consummate professionals. They put my son at ease and were straightforward about the process, the documents they needed, and their expectations once my son qualified for the rental. They have been quick to respond to needed repairs and are always available to answer questions. They are compassionate people who really enjoy their work!
