The Richardsons are truly excellent to work with, and we recommend them with 100% confidence. Thank you so much, Kyle and Mike!

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.

Jeff Oien was recommended to us as a broker to sell our residential property in Santa Barbara…read more Jeff exceeded our expectations in every way possible. We can't think of how anyone could have been more professionally competent in getting the best sale price for our property in a softening market. But Jeff went far above and beyond simply achieving a successful sale. He was unstintingly helpful, always accessible, and invariably placing the highest priority on our welfare and interests, regardless of how it might affect his own. He was unfailingly gracious and kind throughout the process. From start to finish we had the blessing of confidence in his professional know-how and integrity. Based on our experience, we unhesitatingly rate Jeff as a five-star real estate broker, one we gladly recommend to others.

I thought village was really nice, clean, high quality offices and building, good location, large staff but not too large, they have a good reputation in the local community from what we gathered around town. Louise Mckaig is a fantastic real estate agent and really spent time with us. It turns out she was born and raised in Santa Barbara from generations back so she really was able to give us a lot of information and an insiders view of locations, history, good investments, etc. On top of that, her credentials, training, background, etc. were like no other agent we had worked with before, which was refreshing. We've worked with a lot of real estate companies over the years throughout the USA and I think it really speaks highly of a company when they hire well trained, quality agents, with degrees and certificates, who, most importantly, are locals that stay in touch with the local community. We were very happy with our time spent SB and we will definitely be coming back into town to work with village properties when the opportunity arises. While in the area we stayed at both the biltmore hotel and the baccara resort and spa which we both highly recommend as well. At the biltmore be sure to take a stroll on butterfly beach and if you get a massage at the baccara be sure to ask for brian.

If you're buying your first home, need a mortgage, and still want to stay competitive in the…read moreincredibly tight Santa Barbara/Goleta housing market, look no further than Kendrick. Kendrick is exceptionally responsive, thorough, and knowledgeable about the local market. He's also very well connected with other agents, which proved to be a huge advantage throughout our home search. Finding a home in the $1-1.3 million price range is highly competitive, but Kendrick helped us secure a beautiful home without spending months searching. His relationships, market knowledge, and offer strategy were instrumental in putting together a competitive offer that was accepted within a day of the home hitting the market. What we appreciated most was that he always had our best interests in mind. If he noticed issues with a property, he pointed them out. If he felt a home was overpriced, he told us honestly instead of encouraging us to overpay. At no point did we feel pressured to make an offer. We always felt he was helping us make the right decision. Working together with our mortgage advisor, Kendrick helped us navigate the entire process seamlessly. From our accepted offer to closing, we completed everything in less than 20 days. We highly recommend Kendrick to anyone looking to buy a home in the Santa Barbara or Goleta area.

One month later and they have only released ONE updated listing. Today is April 29 and their "current" rental guide is dated April 3.

Incredibly frustrating as every other small business has been great in communicating and adapting during these challenging times. I have some patience, but to have no response and no acknowledgment is rude. If you aren't able to operate during this time, simply close and put a note on your website. 10/10 would NOT recommend at ANY time.

I'm sure Kevin Lehman will chime in here right away, denying and accusing. If only he did his actual job and responded when it matters, maybe there would be fewer 1-star reviews.
