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.

There were repairs being done to the building occasionally but I see that as a positive. Diane is great to communicate with and always a pleasure to see when entering the office. She has great humor and demeanor. Karen and her husband were also helpful and cheerful when around the building. Moving in was great and moving out was great with a reasonable deposit return. We moved due to wanting a larger apartment from a one bedroom to a 2 bedroom, and unfortunately didn't find one available at the time with Karen Lacks & Co.

As the owner of a local home inspection company with over 20 years serving the Santa Barbara…read morecommunity, I've had the opportunity to work with Kyle Richardson and The Richardson Team on hundreds of real estate transactions over the years, and they are among the most knowledgeable and professional real estate teams in Santa Barbara. One of the things that stands out most is the generational depth of experience behind their work. Their understanding of the Santa Barbara market comes from decades of professional stewardship serving local real estate clients, and that depth of knowledge shows in the high-caliber guidance and strategy they bring to each transaction. I've been involved in many of their transactions over the years and have seen firsthand how much they prioritize transparency and truly advocate for their clients. They take the time to ensure buyers and sellers fully understand the condition of a property and the decisions they are making along the way, always advocating for their clients' best interests at every step. The Richardson Team represents the very best of professionalism in our local real estate community. I'm always glad when we have the opportunity to work together and would confidently recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home in Santa Barbara. -- Shelby Hendrix HouseMaster Home Inspections

Skyline Property Management: Six Stars - They Deliver!…read more Several years ago, as neophytes to being 'landlords', we took the recommendation of a real estate agent/friend and hired Skyline. Robert & Christy walked us through what we needed to do to prepare our rental, advised us on pricing, advertised and screened applicants for us, negotiated the rental contract and then managed the property once tenants were 'in'. They were professional, thorough and made the entire process EASY! Recently we have also seen Skyline in action from the renter's perspective when our son contacted them about an apartment they were managing. Again, Skyline's Robert & Christy were the consummate professionals. They put my son at ease and were straightforward about the process, the documents they needed, and their expectations once my son qualified for the rental. They have been quick to respond to needed repairs and are always available to answer questions. They are compassionate people who really enjoy their work! I recommend Skyline Property Management to landlords and renters. They are the real deal!

We showed up without an appointment and after sitting down with Realtor Mike Moss to discuss what…read morewe were looking for in buying a house in SLO, hired him as our agent. Mike was very patient working with us as we were not yet focused on a specific area in the county. After many months and trips to view potential houses in Los Osos, Morro Bay and SLO, we finally narrowed the focus on SLO City. We then toured various neighborhoods until we found a couple of areas to really focus on. Mike was patient, thoughtful and helpful all throughout this process and when we found the house for us, he was instrumental in our plan of making a successful offer and getting us through escrow. Can't say enough about Mike and how professional and personable he was throughout the process. He made the stressful process of finding and buying a home so much easier! Highly recommend Mike Moss and Comet Realty!

It's a shame that such a beautiful house in a great location was rented out by someone so…read moreincompetent. I wouldn't recommend renting with Courtney Huckabay under any circumstances. This realtor does not fix house appliances when regular maintenance is required (ice maker, dish disposal, etc.), communicate in a calm and direct manner, or know how to do math. She managed to mix myself and another one of her tenants up when giving back house deposits which ended up in me being shorted $1,000. Her solution to this problem was not to correct the problem she caused, but told that other tenant and myself to "venmo each other to make it right ourselves." However, this was not a problem caused by us and should not had to have been solved by us.
