Front desk personnel changes so often that it’s hard to know who to call. Rose the office manager has 0 skills to manage the office and customer services. Sandra the new front desk has no respect and no training on what she is doing. Save a headache and avoid making business with them because anytime you need to make contact with the office it feels like you are dumb.

I highly recommend property to NOT hire this company because they will never fix issues, communication with the office is horrible.

Landlord finally responded after January and increased rent by 5%! Landlord will not respond! Raises rent 10% regardless of cost of living in the area! Limits on Rent Increases
Landlords cannot raise rent more than 10% total or 5% plus the percentage change in the cost of living – whichever is lower – over a 12-month period. If the tenants of a unit move out and new tenants move in, the landlord may establish the initial rent to charge. (Civ. Code § 1947.12.)

I have been renting out one of my houses here in California for some time now and have been through a few property managers along the way. I am blessed to have come across such talented and friendly people, Powley Properties is far superior to all the others. They always have my rental occupied and are very courteous to both myself and the tenants. I am thrilled to have found such a great property manager, look forward to many years ahead with this company.

Very unorganized and poor at following up and communicating. Usually need to call multiple times to get a person to talk to or get them to respond to messages. They also have ignored and not responded to several emails I've sent them in the past. It's also incredibly frustrating when I have an urgent issue or maintenance need that requires me to call Powley, Powley to call the property owners, the owners to get back to Powley, then Powley to contact a 3rd party who had to contact me. It's insanely beaurocratic and frustrating. The only thing they are great at communicating are the yearly $100/mo rent increases. Can't wait to move and not have to work with this company anymore.

We have been tenants in one of the properties managed by Powley Properties for over 3 years. Prior to them taking over the unit, we dreaded dealing with the managers. They were either unresponsive or took a while to fix issues. Having Powley was like a breath of fresh air. Not only do they respond within 24 hours of contact, but his crew keeps us abreast of what is being done. We cannot stress how much this is appreciated. It’s good to know that the ball has not been dropped and that they're working with us instead of against us.

I had another company managing my property and they just weren't getting the job done. Powley Properties showed me what a management company is supposed to be like. They've improved everything. Clearly they know what they're doing. I have been very satisfied with their service.

We have received amazing 5 star service from one of the staff named Michelle... As tenant, I really feel cared for and respected. This is an excellent company. I highly recommend them to anyone! I'm not being paid for this post, this is my own personal feeling.

It’s never easy for a property manager to juggle the needs of the tenant and the needs of the owner I imagine. Powley Properties manages to walk that fine line though. They have always been fair to me and I can honestly say it’s been a breeze living in one of their properties. They take care of maintenance requests and even try to negotiate updates with the owner. Glad it’s not a me vs. them mentality. Good company.
