Rewriting my review now that I have had the move-in, resident, and move-out experience with E&H! I…read morelived in one of their properties for about four years. First, the viewing was self-guided. You get a key from a lockbox and let yourself in. It can be nice to have a guided tour to show you where building amenities are, but this worked too. I applied for the unit the same day. I was third in line as an applicant, to my dismay. However, the two applicants ahead of me somehow disqualified. Either their income didn't check out or they didn't bring the deposit check within 24 hours as required. Either way, I felt very lucky to have come up in the line, because that was a great condo. Moving in was stressful from what I recall because you don't get your lease until the day you move in. Most places give you keys before that. So in my mind, I worried they would take it out from under me while all my boxes were downstairs in a moving truck. I would argue for changing that procedure. That said, now that I have had more experience with them, they are a professional company with clear procedures, so I would tell other tenants who worry like I do, not to stress so much about that. During my tenancy, I tried to minimize the maintenance I requested because I didn't want to give reason to raise my rent by increasing costs, and also because it's a pain to have maintenance crews. The previous maintenance coordinator was a nightmare and I was relieved she left because she communicated so terribly. But then came Carlos, who is amazing. Carlos will have a work order in your email and a technician calling to schedule before you can even think about when you're available. He is friendly and professional. When I needed maintenance, E&H sent maintenance. There was no humming and hawing over whether it was necessary, whether I should cover it myself; they just dealt with it. During my tenancy, they replaced a water heater and a toilet without hesitation. This could be in part related to the specific property owner for my condo, maybe he was less cheap about things, who knows. But I do know that if something broke, they fixed it, and I have no complaints there. My property supervisor was Lorenzo. Outside of the start and end of my tenancy, I had very little interaction with him. He is very direct; you won't find him small talking or sharing personal details. Nonetheless, he is professional, experienced, and by the book. If you want to know how your tenancy will go, read your lease; they follow it to the letter. Lorenzo helped make my move-out easier than he had to. I am appreciative of him as a property supervisor. You don't always know how things will go when a company has your deposit money. I wish I could tell my past self not to worry so much and that it was okay to trust what was being said to me. The other office staff are hit and miss. Some are helpful and responsive. Some will ignore three emails in a row and just never acknowledge you. Communication could be much better, which is why this review is four stars instead of five. I wish they were proactive instead of reactive. I think E&H counts on their property supervisors to do too much, which results in office staff who don't have many answers and property supervisors who are stretched too thin. I had to return my keys on a Sunday, so I was told to drop them in the mailbox. Unfortunately, the mailbox was jammed so I couldn't. I was leaving town the next morning, so there was no option but to leave them inside the apartment. I worried I would be charged a fee for this, but I was not. It did stress me out immensely though. The payment portal is convenient, although there is a small transaction fee each month paid by the tenant. I like that you can view your entire account ledger in the portal. All documents are also stored there. My deposit was returned in full, including my pet deposit, via check, mailed 19 days after I vacated, within the CA legal limits. No deductions were made. It was important to me to get a full refund, so I cleaned that condo to within an inch of its life. I have no idea what the standard is, but I left it cleaner than I found it for sure, with the exception of the carpet, which had normal wear and tear after so many years of use. I filled all the holes in the walls that I had made, and I painted over the spackle with a paint match even though painting was not asked of me. I scrubbed the cabinets and drawers inside and out. I made myself sick with cleaning fumes. In any case, I got all my money back, so it was worth it. Again, I will say that E&H is by the book. They tell you what to expect. Read the qualifications for tenants before you pay your application fee. Use the move-out checklist they send you when you vacate. Communicate in writing. That way, you won't have surprises later.

Do not waste your time trying to book tours with this company. They have poor communication skills…read moreand lack customer service skills as well. On multiple occasions my husband and I have tried booking tours with them only to have our messages ignored. They're only receiving one star because yelp makes me give them something. Update: While I appreciate your response that doesn't change the fact that multiple messages to your staff went unanswered. Multiple members of your staff failed to respond to messages about setting up tours to the point where the property became unavailable. During the most recent incident when we asked a member of your staff why they never returned our messages they said "I don't know what to tell you " when it was him specifically who failed to respond to the messages sent by my husband. Happy to discuss this further with you if you provide contact information.

My…read moreexperience with Real Property Management in Long Beach has been extremely frustrating and unprofessional. After moving out of the unit at 3951-3056 Howard Ave in Los Alamitos, I completed a walkthrough where I was told I would not be charged for cleaning. The apartment was completely emptied out -- it's a very small 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit with no garage after the property removed garages to build ADUs. Despite this, they are now attempting to withhold my security deposit with questionable charges such as "junk removal" and cleaning fees. It is now day 22, and I still have not received my deposit back or adequate communication. Multiple calls and emails have gone unanswered. On top of that, tenants had to deal with ongoing construction, parking issues, maintenance problems, and constant disruptions while living there. At this point, I am preparing to pursue the matter in small claims court due to what I believe is bad-faith withholding of my deposit. I recommend future renters document everything carefully and know their tenant rights before renting here.

We submitted an application over a month ago and have been stuck in a constant cycle of unanswered calls, empty promises, and misleading communication from a gentleman named Miguel. For the past two weeks, we've repeatedly been told we would have an answer "by the end of the day" or "no later than 5 PM," yet we never receive a callback. Our calls are often sent straight to voicemail, but when we call from an unknown number, the phone is answered immediately. On multiple occasions, he has answered only to hang up on us. What makes this even more frustrating is that we continue to be given hope by being asked to schedule apartment viewings, only for communication to stop again. Meanwhile, our application has been sitting unresolved for over a month. At this point, we want a clear answer on whether or not we have the apartment. If not, we expect our application fee to be refunded because the service we paid for was never properly provided. Applicants deserve honest communication, professionalism, and timely processing, none of which we experienced here.

I asked if I could view it once my current orders expired and I had my authorized travel time. When the time came, my family and I drove down to Long Beach to view a few apartments--and the company completely ghosted us. After driving six hours away, we finally found a showing open for the night I was scheduled to report. I thought we were finally making progress. But the next morning, the company reached out only to tell me the unit had been sold. Mind you, it's still listed as available on Apartments.com and Zillow. No warning, no courtesy call, no effort to communicate--just silence until it was too late. This was beyond frustrating. As someone actively serving under time-sensitive orders, I expected at least basic professionalism and communication. Instead, my time, effort, and family's schedule were completely disregarded. This is the first time I've ever left a review for any business--I usually avoid it--but this experience was stressful enough that I felt people should be warned. If you're on a timeline, especially military or relocating, proceed with extreme caution. The lack of follow-through here caused unnecessary stress during an already difficult transition. Anyways. Happy Veterans Day. Lol

12 years Yelp Elite Member and I am pointing this out in hopes that you will read my entire review…read moreto make sure you are aware when considering a rental unit. When dealing with this Property Management company, please make sure that you ask questions and read everything - the listing, their emails, Application, and more importantly the Lease Agreement. They will loosely use the term Security Deposit but what they really mean is a Holding Deposit. They will even say it is Earnest Money, which this term is only for Real Estate property sale. If you are serious about considering a rental property, I suggest that you review the lease prior to handing over the "Security Deposit." Just as I have explained above, they will call it a Security Deposit and if you do not like the terms of the Lease Agreement, they will keep the Security Deposit. They say, as they explained in my original post and is below, that the money provided is "Earnest Money" and will not be returned because they took the property off the market. Rightfully so, but they need to disclose that upfront and in writing and not take the entire "Security Deposit" worth one month's rent. A Holding Deposit is typically only $100 to $300 (from past experience). Additionally, when you provide the "Security Deposit" which means the Holding Deposit, they do not provide request an acknowledgement letter to be signed stating that the money will be kept if the rental does not go through. Nor does the receipt did that as well. In any case, the "Security Deposit" was handed to them, and they took two weeks to provide a copy of the Lease Agreement. It is not a standard agreement that majority of rental use. It has a lot of language that is one sided. Yes, we have renters rights but because it is a contract, I can see you'd have to go to court to fight some of the terms in the contract. Obviously, this is speculation. Please do note that if you were to take legal action against this property management company, there are provisions that state you will have to pay their legal fees. That was my main red flag, but all the untraditional additional fees like administrative fees, not being present if they need to access the apartment ($250), and so forth. It's one page. On top of the $38/month to use AppFolio app to pay for rent when my previous landlord, it was free. These items add up and rent is expensive to begin with. Be smart. Don't hand over money. The Lease and the Security Deposit go hand in hand and submitted at the same time. It's not Security Deposit first. Like they say, scammers usually try to rush you over the phone with a sense of urgency. This is the same. Make sure you are covered, and trust your gut instinct. A few people have messaged me after my original review and said it happened to them too. Don't be fooled. Why would you be penalized if they took down an apartment from any listing prior to having a lease signed? Because you already gave them the so called "Security Deposit." All they have to do to change this is call it a "Holding Deposit," and give the least upfront to potential renters. Then they wouldn't be doing anything unethical. If I didn't have contract knowledge or common sense, I'm sure I would've been dupped. I just wish property managers who hire this company know their practices and even look at the lease agreement they are providing potential tenants. Yes, it'll protect you too as the owner but it just doesn't seem right given people who rent really don't have that much money to give away. PS. Their comment to my previous review, which all of this is now edited, is incorrect. Please research further in regards to the terms they will use and know your rights. What's right, what's wrong, what can they do, what they are not allowed to do, and more importantly what's legal, what's illegal. It is funny to see that their comment was really to find out who I was versus, "I'm sorry for the misunderstanding." That gives you the whole story on their customer service skills and intentions. Their good intentions are for their clients, obviously. Be nice, have more properties to manage. I wonder where the "Earnest Money" as they call it, goes to? To them, or to the property owners. LOL
