While I use Yelp almost daily, I don't often post reviews as I simply don't have time. So when I…read moredo, it means the experience was very important to me. And this review is long overdue. I've had the pleasure of renting a property via AC Goldt Realty for several years, and I'm so grateful for having had an excellent agency to work with. Over the years, Amanda and her team has always gone above and beyond to help me. Whether it was a maintenance issue, new request, or general question, they would jump on it and resolve immediately. I knew that I could always count on them and trust that I would always receive top notch service. When I recently moved, it was very bittersweet because while I was excited about my new place, I was sad to know that I would not be working with Amanda at my new home. For me to say this is very significant as I never felt connected or important to any other agency or rental mgmt company. It's like they make you feel like you're a part of their family, and will always be taken care of. So if you're ever looking for a management company to work with, trust me, you can stop your search here and go with AC Goldt. You will not regret it.

I normally don't write reviews, but I feel it's important to share my experience in hopes that this…read morecompany improves how they treat potential tenants--especially those using housing assistance programs. From the start, my interactions with Lisa at J. Johnson Property Management were disappointing and discouraging. I came in multiple times showing genuine interest in finding a home through their company, but each visit felt like I was being dismissed or overlooked. I provided all the documents requested, including proof of income and my Section 8 housing voucher, but every time I met one requirement, another one was added. At first, I was told my proof of income was acceptable. Then I was told I needed three months of consecutive income, even though my Section 8 voucher itself qualifies as a reliable source of rent payment. It seemed like no matter what I provided, there was always another reason to delay or deny assistance. Despite having my deposit ready and being a serious, qualified applicant, I was never given a fair chance. Lisa was often short with me, unhelpful, and made me feel like I was bothering her by simply following up. I went to the office multiple times and showed real interest in available units, but I was told those units were suddenly unavailable or that my paperwork "wasn't enough." I left feeling that I was not treated professionally or fairly, and possibly even discriminated against--whether because of my Section 8 status, my credit, or something else, I can't say for sure. But I know I met all reasonable requirements and showed responsibility and initiative. This experience was extremely disappointing and made me feel like my situation and efforts didn't matter. I hope this company takes the time to review how they handle applicants, especially those participating in government housing programs, because everyone deserves equal respect and opportunity when seeking housing.

I had an overall good experience with Jennifer. We got off to a rocky start due to my service…read moreanimal, as she felt I had hidden it from her that I have a service dog and did not want to rent to me because the apartment was no-dogs-allowed. However, after meeting him and discussing it further, it was not an issue at all and we never had any further disagreements. Jennifer never entered my apartment without significant notice (she always gave more notice than legally required and was flexible about what time she came so it worked with my schedule) and only came by when absolutely necessary. She was never overbearing and trusted me after it became clear that I wasn't trashing the place. I was required to have the carpet professionally cleaned on move out and elected to hire a professional house cleaner as well at her recommendation. The final move out inspection went really smoothly and I received my deposit back within a few weeks. She was always very responsive to text and call and never unpleasant to deal with. When the owners of my apartment planned to sell and not renew my lease, Jennifer offered to help me find a new place and to put me in contact with similar rentals. The only con of working with Jennifer is her handyman is genuinely the worst handyman I've ever had. He is very polite, no doubt about that, and a very kind man. However, every single fix that he did to the apartment was purely abysmal. Some things he just never fixed, like when I asked him to fix the doorbell he just took it and never brought it back. I asked him to fix the screen door because it didn't close all the way and he "fixed" it, causing the door to have a several inch gap between the door and the frame when closed. Sometimes he would claim things were just not fixable when they clearly were and I had to do those things myself, like screwing in the dishwasher bracket so it didn't jump out from its nook every time I ran it or increasing the water flow to the toilet so it didn't take three minutes of holding down the handle to flush. All that being said, I was Jennifer's tenant for two years and she was really quite lovely to work with. As a woman it's nice to have a woman as your property manager and she was a good advocate on my behalf when the HOA came for me after mistaking me for another tenant who had broken HOA rules.

Even after we had left and moved out, one of the maintenance guys found some stuff we left behind. Jennifer was kind enough to take the stuff and email me to coordinate me picking it up. We would definitely rent through All Bay property management in the future.

I moved into a very small, very expensive above-garage studio in Mountain House that is managed by…read moreReal Property Management one two months ago. Upon moving in, I was surprised by the fact that the unit hadn't been cleaned or painted or had any basic maintenance done before I moved in. The walls were patchy, washer smells horrible like mold, several lights that are out of reach were burned out. There were clumps of long hairs all over. The trim that separates the tile from the hardwood wasn't nailed down and quickly came up. The ice machine put out brown ice. I dumped it and found that the inner parts were all rusted. The water/ice filter probably had never been replaced. Within a week the kitchen faucet handle came off. The toilet ran around the clock. The only light in the bathroom went out. All of these issues were made known through the online "meld" reporting system that they use. Photos were uploaded. After two weeks of calling daily about having no kitchen sink handle and having to use pliers to get water going so I could use the kitchen, I finally got an email asking me to "rate my repair". A repair that was completely blown off despite its importance and urgency and my daily calls stressing the importance of needing it fixed. Someone finally came out and put in a new faucet. The toilet was fixed also after my constant calls and badgering. On several occasions I would get a call or two saying that someone would come out within a one hour time period and to be available. I would block out the time period and make sure I was home and no one would show up. So far this has happened 4 times. When I call I go through a dispatch and they tell me that they will be getting back to me soon and no one ever gets back to me. The latest one that prompted me to write this review is the fire alarm. A very simple, easy fix. And trust me when I say I would gladly fix it myself if I didn't just have major surgery a few days ago AND I am 5 foot tall AND I do not have a ladder...at 4am two days ago the fire alarm began to chirp. I knew there was no way I could safely get to it being days post-op. I immediately woke up and put in a "meld request " and made sure to mention all of the facts (I just had major surgery, etc.). I got a call saying someone was assigned to come between noon and 1pm. I was home all day, had my phone on and big surprise, no one came. At 1:45pm I called and talked to dispatch about this and was told that someone would be contacting me and to just wait. No one contacted me. I tried texting back on the text they sent me. No response. This studio is 500 sqf. I just had surgery. There is nowhere to go to escape the beeping of a fire detector. The homes in this neighborhood are just under a million dollars. The rents for studios are $1,600 and up, the rents for homes are $3,000 and up. The cost of living is insane. I'm a single mom. When I say that I have to scrape every single penny just to not be homeless, I mean it. I live here because it was the only option I had that would keep my 6 year old son in a nice community that was safe with good schools and also allow me access to commute to the Bay Area for higher wages. We lost our long time rental of 10 years in April and had been displaced for 5 months without a permanent home. I looked DAILY and applied DAILY for everything I could think of that I could also afford. So when I was finally approved for this home I was absolutely over the moon. Finally a steady home in a nice place. I don't think it's too much to ask for the company who is paid to manage it to do just that. Take care of the basic things that need to be taken care of. Simply communication goes along way. Doing what you say you're going to do and showing up when you say you are going to is simple. It's honest and it's the right thing to do. This company needs to do better. If they need to hire more staff or pay them more, then do it. Serve the people who you are contracted to serve and take pride in your business. Because really, what's the point if you don't even meet the very basic needs of your customers?

My partner and I were approved for a unit after viewing three properties by this management! While…read more2 Lofts was shown in terrible condition (with bugs, old food, and stains still in place), we proceeded with applying for the cleanest unit which was even more of a red flag because for this unit they said someone was already suppose to pick up the key but she ghosted them! A week later Franny called with an approval and we also received an email confirmation. I mentioned I would be applying for Homeless Assistance through Contra Costa County, and they were obviously depending on it more than myself. This was my first time navigating permanent assistance, so I had questions. I asked if it was possible to separate the lease, I was informed the next day by Franny after checking with her broker they can't proceed with that & I was ok with that, as they still proceeded to go through with everything relying on the permanent assistance! Eventually, I found out the county was able to proceed with both of us on the lease, which was even better! Unfortunately, due to delays with my caseworker which I made a complaint on while trying to reach her for a week which I feel she was ignoring me on purpose because my case was switching to Alameda County July 1st which I just think she didn't want to do any paperwork for my assistance! After finding out I was denied assistance due to accepting a new job with the City of Oakland, my offer letter wasn't good enough & they wanted paystubs even though my worker told me I can. I told them it takes at least 3 weeks for the process & was waiting for my employee Id number Proof wasn't enough, unfortunately they wont pay more than 80% of your income. The moment Franny found out the county couldn't pay, she ghosted me. I emailed Franny the same day I was denied no response so I called the next day. Still, I offered to pay the entire deposit and rent out of pocket for the unit to the property management and even let them know I could bring the full payment the same or next day & move in on the 7th no later than the 15th! My partner makes 3.5-4x the rent, and I have additional self-employment income. Eventually, I was told they weren't moving forward with my application I was ultimately told the owner didn't want to deal with it I truly didn't understand and the reasons kept changing First, it was because originally planned to move in on the first Then, it was the "inconveniences with the county" (even though I was pushing the process myself) Then it was allegedly "fraud" because I asked about separating leases, which was an honest question, not a demand although after they still proceeded to ask and move forward with me! She said it seemed as if I was unreliable! Like huh? Then after I mentioned a fair housing complaint Franny stated the county thinks something is up with you too" A completely inappropriate comment that made me wonder if my confidential information was being shared improperly or if I was being retaliated against. I never received a written notice explaining why we were denied, even after asking twice. This experience delayed my family by two critical weeks, and based on how it unfolded, I strongly suspect source of income discrimination. We were transparent, financially qualified, ready to pay, and had solid rental history but none of it mattered at this point after they realized the county wouldn't be footing the bill. Which makes me realize I don't think they even did any job/ or rental history verifications! If you're a working person trying to get stable housing or using assistance in any way, be cautious. Based on my research, this is not a unique experience. It's common for people using public assistance to be treated as less-than even when they're offering to pay everything themselves. I'm filing a formal complaint with Fair Housing, and I'll continue to speak up not just for myself but for anyone who's ever been quietly discriminated against and made to feel like they are the problem. We deserve better.

I recommend working with Olivia to anyone looking for a rental in the Oakland/East Bay area.
