              I needed a few maintenance items done at my house, and Tyler came and fixed them all! I had originally put in a work order to fix our kitchen sink, and while he was there he was kind enough to fix a few more items around the house. He was very professional and friendly, and I am very appreciative of the work he did.

              Hobie with Cal Prop was our property manager when we lived in a cute little apt in San Marcos (before we bought our house late 2022). He was responsive then and professional. We just sold our home and listed him as a reference for rentals we applied for. All of them said he replied promptly and remembered details about us as tenants. Thanks, Hobie, for that. We found our perfect home with your help.

              I had the pleasure of working with Catherine during my property search, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. I originally inquired about a different property, but she quickly provided me with other great options, making the whole moving process so much easier. Her communication was outstanding—she kept me updated on my application every step of the way and ensured everything went smoothly. If you’re looking to move, I highly recommend reaching out to her. She truly made the process seamless!

Kari came to my place to test out keys and went back to the office to try and look for the master when the one she had didn't work. And they were trying to help me avoid any additional charges by sending a technician before I was eventually able to get through my window! Thank you Kari and Hobie!

              Mario Jimenez, VP coastal/ northern CA District has always been extremely helpful in the 23 years. I’ve been a tenant here In San Diego. And a few few days ago I requested some service to a leaky kitchen sink faucet ,and it was handled extremely well by Cal Props’s technician Tyler who did an excellent job of notifying other tenants of water shut off and completing the task flawlessly? Both are extremely courteous and great to deal with. My sincere praise to both! Bruce
