We trust Descansa to look after our 2 unit home in NE and are so happy that we chose their team…read more We've worked with 5 companies over the past 20 years at different properties and they are by far the best. They truly care about providing an excellent home experience for both owners and renters and lead conversations with empathy and listening; our key contact is responsive and takes action. It's also clear that they enjoy their work. We've met their maintenance team in person and they have helped us with identifying small items to fix to make our property more enjoyable for tenants along with doing more larger fixes when things have broken down. All great quality work. We feel so confident with this team!

Hiring Descansa PDX was the worst financial decision we have ever made in our lives. Working with…read morethem left us feeling embarrassed for ourselves and wondering how we could have been so stupid to hire them in the first place. For those who don't want to read the whole review, here is the summary: we trusted this company to manage our rental property in St. Johns for just under 2 years. During that time, they did nothing except let a tenant vape in our house to the point where our walls were covered in grease and allow her 3 dogs (none of which were on the lease) to urinate and defecate throughout the bedrooms. They were incapable of solving basic maintenance issues, and they (self-admittedly) allowed the tenant to deny them access to the unit. We hired this company at the end of 2023 to manage our 2 bed/1.5 bath townhouse. They placed a tenant shortly after, and everything seemed fine. We didn't hear much for the first year; we figured they were doing what we hired them to do - take care of our property. We started having issues after we never received the annual walk through. We were notified of and charged for an annual inspection in July 2025. However, the report never showed up in our owner's portal, even after reaching out for the results. At the same time, our neighbors reached out directly to us to complain of a strong dog poop smell coming from the backyard, and sent us pictures of a massive amount of dog poop that had obviously never been cleaned up. We reached out to Descansa and asked them rectify the issue immediately (we had verbally agreed to allow one pet in the unit; there were no pets annotated on the lease agreement). It took them 3 weeks to send the email to the tenants telling them to clean up the dog poop, but not before their office staff somehow mistook us for the tenants and sent us an email about it first... In early October, 2025 and we had an electrical issue on the exterior of the home. Descansa proved incapable of being useful in this situation too. Luckily, our family in the area works with an electrician on a daily basis and was able to get to our property to take care of it. While they were there, our family member learned there were 3 dogs in the house, and told us the inside was effectively destroyed by pets. We finally received the annual inspection report from July, 2025 in October. The report (which was a scanned copy of a wet piece of paper) had an inspection item called "Pet Friendly?", where the inspector annotated "DOGS ON PREMISE." In other words, they new this tenant was in violation of the lease and did nothing about it. They also failed to mention the fact that these dogs had been trapped upstairs by the tenant and had been urinating and defecating in the bedrooms (probably since they moved in). We decided (stupidly) to give this company another chance and allow them to work through the issues. In addition to everything listed above, they also failed to perform basic requested maintenance, such as replace a microwave. Come to find out, it's because the tenant was not allowing them in the property after the required notice in the lease... and they rolled over and allowed that to happen multiple times without ever telling us. We fired them in early 2026. We hired a new property management company who attempted to assume responsibilities from them, but after learning how poorly this property was managed, our new company refused to take control until the current lease expired and the tenant moved out. My husband and I had take over for the last 3 months of the lease. Descansa's CEO Kate Simer exchanged emails with us several times in the lead up to us terminating our agreement with them. Here are a few direct quotes: - "Multiple appointments were scheduled and rescheduled due to (tenant) canceling or refusing access." Refusing access to the unit was a direct violation of the lease. They never documented or alerted us to any of these issues. - "What made this situation more complex was the combination of restricted maintenance access, escalating tension with the tenant, and growing strain in communication overall." Again, how could access be restricted and not annotated as a lease violation? The "growing strain" in communication was caused by Descansa's inability to communicate and their 2-3 week email response time. - "We were not aware there were more than two dogs in the home." Clear sign of their ineptitude given their "inspection" that they performed. Also, we agreed to only allow one pet in the home. This saga ended with about $20k in repair expenses as my husband and I flew across the country to tear out all flooring in the unit, wash the walls clean of vape residue, scrub dog feces off the baseboards, roll the urine-soaked subfloors with Kilz primer in an attempt to neutralize the staggering smell, and shovel ~2 years worth of dog poop out of the backyard (that was never taken of). Pictures attached of what it's like working with Descansa.

I've been using Portland Property Management as my property management company for my rental…read moreproperty in Northeast Portland. I've been renting the house out for the last 13 years and Portland Property Management along with the owner Matt, has been really great. They've helped me find good deals on contractors for upkeep of the house and they've done great background checks to find good tenants for the property. I would never rent to strangers that I found on craigslist or something like that. Professional background checks are necessary to find good tenants. Also, they have been great about keeping good clean records and accounting for all the 13 years of rental income and expenses... There's no way I could keep track of all that because I'm terrible with accounting and organizing financial data.

PPM did absolutely nothing to improve the conditions of the deteriorating home when they came on or after, only raised the rent multiple times & changed where the check was mailed / deposited. They did 1 single walkthrough to "check caulking" around the house. 2yrs later when it was time to move out after paying timely for 12+yrs, they not only kept 100% of the deposit, but claimed a seemingly arbitrary number of additional debt that was more than 1/2 above the price of rent. Absolutely fraudulent. Thankfully I own a home now, but it damaged credit / renting reports for one of my housemates who paid faithfully until he moved out 2yrs before I released the property. They're clearly about racking up properties, not about being invested in the spaces they are responsible for. The housemate is looking into litigation against them now for damages. Any company that just collects properties to collect on is going to have quality control failure. This is yet another, but with the possibility of intentional fraud.

With that said, their estimate turned out to be in line, and even better, than the other estimates I received. There's just simply nobody else I'm gonna call going forward whenever I need plumbing done. Being able to trust these guys just puts my wife at ease.

The one company that will will take me on will not write in a water sewer backup clause, and there is no way I would not have that coverage. Due to the bathtub faucet not being put back together correctly, I had flooding in my kitchen, bedroom closet and master bathroom. Because the tile could not be matched, the entire bathroom had to be redone. Not only did I have 6 months of disruption/construction in my house, I'm now going to pay more in insurance and I don't have the ability to change my insurance without high risk to me financially. I do not recommend this company. Nobody ever reached out to me after the damage, however they did call the Flood Pros without telling me that they had done so when I called in a panic on a Saturday night. The initial reason I called them was to fix an bathtub faucet that was dripping in the tub, and I ended up with a disaster.

We recently expanded a deck, added a patio cover, and are putting a hot tub underneath this second…read morefloor deck. There was a concrete patio below the existing deck and we wanted to match that, w/ reinforcement for a hot tub. We got a couple bids for the job. Danny was the estimator that came out for Forest and he seemed knowledgeable and was punctual and professional. It was not the cheapest bid ($6600 for a 13'X16' 4" concrete patio w/ hot tub reinforcement), but the company is much more well established than a couple others we consulted so I put more trust in their work. Rigo is the guy we needed to work with on scheduling etc. for concrete work. This was a little rocky at first, but that had a lot to do with us needing to postpone the start till our deck was done, but then also work around a vacation we'd be taking, and make sure the concrete had enough time to cure before our hot tub is dropped. Despite a slight language barrier, we worked it out and even managed to get it done ahead of when we originally scheduled it. Punctuality is impressive with these guys. For 3 days they were waiting outside our house to start at 7:30am precisely. They had to remove a portion of fence and work around some foliage for access. They ended up encountering an unexpected drainage tube of some kind while digging and made sure to create an access point for us if it's ever needed in the future. The concrete looks great and matches our old patio so well, it's hard to tell they weren't poured together. Danny and I (and later Rigo) discussed treating the old concrete to help the matching. At the end of the work they did a great job of cleaning up the area and returning everything to normal. Rigo also helped us by showing us how to remove the fence portion for when our hot tub is delivered and left the top cap off because he said we'd really struggle to get it off if they put it back. I'm happy with the work, communication, and cleanup and trust if there are any problems I will be able to get them resolved. If we have further landscape needs in the future I will def be calling Forest for a bid.
