Lordon Management is an absolute joke of a management company. They came on as our new management company and in less than a year they almost destroyed our community. * We had three managers in the course of HALF a year. Each manager needed a "transition period", meaning the HOA never received any actual management because it was always in "transition". * No actual maintenance gets done. * Most of the managers are deeply unqualified. They don't know what they are doing and they provide incorrect advice to the Board on every level. * They do not vet their vendors. Should this not be the most basic of services a management company provides? Most egregiously they sent a termite company to do UNLICENSED stucco work, causing new damage. * Their "proprietary technology" is a joke. Apparently their "data" department and managers don't have access to the same information, and they are unable to sent email notifications to the community without manually typing out emails and failing to BCC, exposing personal emails to everyone. * The worst of all of them is Donalea Bauer, the VP, who supposedly oversees everything. It is an absolute sham of a company and it is a wonder they are still in business. Since the HOA finally switched, it has been a breath of fresh air within a month. The new management company can actually send out email blasts (at the very bare minimum). read more

They only care about collecting money and demand more $ thru raising HOA by 25%, plus asking us to pay thousands of dollars for the roof replacement AFTER they already raised the monthly HOA, everything went down to upon LORDON taking over as our new property management company. It's been months past since I reached out to Michelle Morales (Community Association Manager), and Stephanie Garcia from their Accounting team to get my outstanding balance issue fixed. I didn't hear back from them upon providing everything they asked for to "investigate" and resolved with the previous property management company called Western Regional Management, which was also incapable of handling AR apparently. So disappointed at this company and I seriously question the relationship behind choosing them by the HOA Board. They probably don't care about one more bad review as their ratings sucks anyway but I need to have my voice heard by the public. STAY AWAY FROM DOING BUSINESS WITH THEM! If the founder, DON MELCHING happens to be reading this, that would be awesome. read more

I just wanted to let people know how much we appreciate Lordon Property Management and especially Karina's amazing expertise and professionalism. Before Lordon, we had a property manager that kept us in the dark by failing to disclose key financial documents. Lordon's transparency, in contrast, is clear and up front with no issues whatsoever. Karina is always very helpful when we have questions and skillfully manages the interests of individual property owners with the good of homeowners association as a whole. Thank you so much for meeting and exceeding our expectations. I would recommend Lordon (especially Karina) to anyone who asks. read more

They nevere answer the phones! How is anything going to get done, when they don't answer?

A year later, this management office is still as terrible as ever. I have started pursuing a lawsuit regarding the matter with our complex. I know your business is not being impacted by COVID-19 like other industries, but you should hold your employees to the highest standards regardless. Instead of ignoring your HOA payers' requests, you should think deeper about how you should improve your customer service and actually make this community better. You would not be here if it weren't for our HOA dollars. read more

this is an amazing company. I called and I was helped right way I spoke to Donalea and she was amazing the customer service was beyond amazing, I had a problem and they fixed to thank you lordan read more

Management companies have it hard trying to make everyone happy but Lordon has done a great job. I'm the HOA president and can say that our Community Manager, Alison is probably the best I've ever met! Her assistant Joy is also great at her job and a real asset. Donalea ,the Vice President is hands on and always around when needed. 5 stars! read more

WORSTEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Their system is such a piece of shit, so fuccccing annoying, you can do nothing about it and they raise your HOA and charge you late fees!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I'm from Rancho Azusa HOA. London Management in Azusa,Ca handles our property. I have complaints against Faith Camperson. Twice now I have not been able to participate in Board meetings. She changed it last minute with out proper notification and has given me a code to the phone meetings that doesn't work. We are getting charged a special assessment fee of $432 a month when we have over $1M in reserves. I have serious concerns and questions about how the money is being handled yet I have no one to ask. I've also reached out to whoever is above Faith and all I've gotten is "I'll talk to her". No real changes or consequences. I suspect something shady when homeowners are not given proper notices for important meetings. There were about 6 people trying to get into the meeting on 11/22/21 @7:30 & they could not get in. I will be looking into other means on how to go about this and my right as a homeowner. And I will also file a complaint. I've also heard that 2 or 3 of the board members just do whatever Faith wants. This is a horrible Management company. We need to get rid Of them and use another one. I, along with other homeowners, will not stop until we get some answers and if there is shady practice going on, for them to be held accountable Update after Donalea's post: How do you answer for Faith's lack of professionalism? I am not the only homeowner who feels the way I do. This was the second meeting I could not join. The first one Faith changed last minute without letting homeowners know. She had a history of not giving people proper notice. The property management also has a history of being slow to HO needs when we need something but when it comes to fees and paying up for assessments we are demanded to pay right away. So my concerns for shady practice is valid. read more

They SUCK!!!! They managers never know anything. They service is non existent. They have no people skills at all. They apparently only answer phones no real answers or help read more

Contacted Lordon and left a voicemail. Got a retuned call before the end of the day and received wonderful customer service with answers to my questions. read more

This PM company employees staff who are ignorant of laws and procedures. They are unresponsive to homeowners, supporting poor decisions and directives from boards who clearly do not follow proper protocol. They seem to only care about making money and nothing else. read more

HOA property management is tough - good luck pleasing all the homeowners, all the time. I've had positive experiences in my handful of interactions with Lordon. Especially today, where an account mixup (mostly by my actions) led to getting a lien on one of my properties along with collections action. Maggie and Dona quickly identified the source of the mixup and made everything right. Thank you for your help and prompt resolution!! read more

I am back with another update on Lordon Management. We had a regular board meeting last night, but for some reason there attorney attended this meeting, Pamela Moore. We had several homeowners on the meeting due to the fact of me making them aware of what Lordon is not doing and the treatment that we are getting from the managers (6 different managers) from 2019 - 2021. Nothing gets done or resolved because every time a new one comes on, they need to be updated about the situations that are going on. So you start all over again. The only reason that I could think that Pamela Moore was there was to defend Lordon Management because I had two very important concerns. (1) I ask that we get a new management company. (2) Our president that is always bullying and verbally attacking the homeowners, I ask if he would step down. He has not people skills and does not know how to treat people, especially woman. He has many violations and nothing is every done because he is the board president. We have a major concern with an owner running a business and they DO NOT LIVE in the UNIT. I gave Lordon all the information in regards to this busines. I did all the homework for them, printed out all the information in regards to where the central location is and the paperwork they filed with the address for the business listed at the condo association, Spyglass Villas, and Pam Moore has done absoluetly nothing about it. But, she can attend a regular meeting and we are paying her for that! I do not trust this company at all, Donalea is married to our CPA for our HOA. A little shady to me, taking care of our financials! I have asked for a copy of the contract that we have with Lordon and I was told she did not have it. (Donalea) The company has it, I thought Donalea owned the company. Then I asked for at least the dates, and I got nothing. I do not understand why they just don't let us go, they have enough associations to make money off. In my opinion they are corrupt and walking all over us. I am a very concerned homeowner and I have a big investment at Spyglass Villas. The Lordon staff and our Mananger are very rude and unprofessional, no compassion for the homeowners. I have so much more to say about this company, but I would probably run out of room to type it. All I will say is run from this company, they do absolutely nothing for the homeowners. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND PUT YOUR INVESTMENT AT RISK!!!!! ZERO STARS FOR ME, BUT YOU HAVE TO PUT ONE read more

Lordon Management, Covina, CA for the Cottages HOA has been doing nothing to our community, just collecting our payment since changed from San Francisco to Covin, LA. Do not take care any cutting trees, fixing anything outside damage, just bothered neighbors community, raised the Association fees only. Even though noticed phone calls, emails, never fixed the requested notice. Never outside painting for over 10 years. Never refund the overcharged payment. Waisting our HOA money for hiring gardeners' board block glasses should be out of stones without water. read more

Don't know why it's so difficult to get a hold of them. Can't reach them over the phone, email goes unanswered for a week. Getting tired of having to keep pinging them for some simple request. read more

I would give zero stars if I could. This is by far the worst company ever! the HOA does not fix broken gates, no parking passes available, clubhouse not open on weekend, pool only open when the workers actually show up. We supposedly have security but no residents have ever seen him. they do not return your calls ever. completely unprofessional. We had a power outage and we called to report because we're on private property and the response was we are no longer taking calls on this issue and hung up on us. How do you leave over 1500 resident without power for more than 48 hours! Will not reimburse residents for lots of food due to power outages. They blame the city, and the city blames the HOA at the end of the day. The residents are suffering. Office staff is very rude and unprofessional. there is zero communication between Lordon management and the resident. read more

If I could leave negative stars I would. They were our property mgt company since I bought my place in 2013. They are a completely analog company, no homeowner portal, no email communications etc. They say they have a portal but its empty other than homeowner contact info. No governing documents, meeting minutes etc. They were distant from our community so this was a challenge as well. We had consistent turnover in our property managers, some good, most horrible. They allowed some of our board to run the community in a rogue fashion without any concern for homeowners. 11 am HOA meetings so no one could attend, allowing certain members of our board to run processes that are clearly for a management company for independence and transparency. Instead of representing our community, they represented our rogue HOA President. Simply stay away from them. You get what you pay for. read more

Lordon Property Management has been my community property manager from 2011-2021. They participated in questionable HOA operations and failed to be transparent with homeowners regularly. Community managers rotated almost yearly and were not professional. None of their employees hold California Certified Residential Managers (CCRM) certifications which is a staple for all property management firms in California. The information they provide to homeowners was sometimes completely false and biased. They had a homeowner portal that was never updated or had any relevant information for the community. When asked questions during board meetings, they promised responses within 24 hours. These responses never came. Their communication with homeowners was horrid and teetered on being completely inept. I would highly discourage any HOA or homeowner who is looking for a property management company to hire Lordon. They have multiple offices located throughout SoCal so be warned. read more

I have left a negative review before... and I'm back again. It's truly unfortunate that my review is based upon the lack of communication and follow through. I was informed that the pools would be open this weekend. The only reply I get is...."I'm out in the field".....such a joke! read more

Is there a way to give a negative 5 star?we have been dealing with this management company for over 8 year to fix damages caused by HOA. very frustrated on dealing with Francesca ! that really piss me off ! Just Get my job done asap..or be hearing from a lawyer read more

This does not to be long. I've left review before. No clue how this place is still in business. Never answers, now over 4 months of going back and forth for a dang condo cert.. it is filled out wrong. This is the only thing HOLDING UP OUR REFINANCE. For us to sign LOAN DOCS. Owner: Janes showcase villas no.7 someone answer the dang phone or email. Time is not on anyones sides you have all parties involved waiting on you like several times throughout our process. read more

This place is the WORST!!! I've been going around in circles with this place regarding a parking permit for my mom. Our community has ABSOLUTELY no handicap parking. My mom has a handicap permit but now they're going to make her park her car on the street since she doesn't have a parking permit yet!! This is unacceptable. She has been parking her car without it for over a year NOW they want her to have one or they'll tow her car. I've gotten the approval for HOA to have my mom park her car without it. I can't stand Lordon they take forever to get back to you. Especially Jennifer the Maintenance manager for our community. Shame on you. read more

It's 2019, and Lordon Management remains unaccountable for their inability to secure our property. Pics will say it all.. I will post more! Follow me please so that you can see for yourself this company simply does not care about our properties! read more

I would give 0 star for Inability to Resolve Maintenance issues outside the patio door with water leaking pipes. Then they didn't reimburse my water bills that's $1,000. The IRWD adjusted and Lordon need to reimburse the balance as promised. But it's one year and no reimbursement. read more

HORRIBLE company!! During a pandemic this company had my community cars towed. They said because it was street sweeping day. They didn't care that during this panic people are working from home( more cars), some people have lost there jobs, people may be quarantined or even in the hospital. I understand giving a parking ticket but to tow cars at $355.00 during the pandemic is horrible. Looking at all the other post on here it's clear there thieves. If you call be prepared to talk to someone who is rude and unprofessional. I would like to know if they get kick backs from the towing company?? My community is Park Trail HOA and the rude and unprofessional employee was Karina. read more

God awful. They don't even look at the CC&Rs - they just make things up and when asked if a policy conforms to the CC&Rs they say "I don't know." read more

Absolutely wonderful management. They are the best at towing cars and collecting payments. They allow the towing company to tow cars even with parking permits up. Their excuse was that they did not see it in the dark. I am telling you, they have eyes in the complex and will tow your car at their first sight. If you ever need someone to get your car towed 24/7, they are the best in the business. read more

It sure feels like I had committed a crime. I bought my condo not too long ago and Lordon Management Company took over another management company recently and ever since all I've been dealing with were just headaches. My neighbor downstairs (lets just call her Mrs. C) complained way too much first to myself about a lot of things which I had fixed those problems and she would gossip to everyone else about the leakage in her bathroom. This was brought up to my attention by another neighbor and I told that neighbor that if she (Mrs. C) has a problem perhaps she should talk to me. She brought this problem up to management and I understand completely that it's neither my fault nor hers because this issue was never fixed with prior management company and the previous owner. Lordon Management company summoned for my presence wanting an explanation to why I have not complied to fixing this problem. This issue was not brought up to my attention by Mrs. C when I was still living at the property and I had tenants living there now. On the meeting day: Prior going into the room, there was another tenant before me and do I feel bad for her. They made her cry leaving the meeting. When it was my turn, at the entrance there were two security guards standing there and a panel of I believe 5-6 people. I guess security guards were there to protect the people on the panel. Everyone on the panel were rude and unprofessional. I felt like I was being talked down to because I am young and they thought that it was ok to do so. Well first of all I paid my HOA of $325 each month and I feel that they should help fix this problem. Second of all why do I have to pay the whole bill so that my neighbor downstairs can pick out her materials to have her whole bathroom remodeled. If she wants to have her bathroom remodeled, then she should do it out of her pocket and not at the expense of others. So Lordon Management got their own contractor coming in to fix this problem and it was a nightmare. First off they left the place a mess after each time they come in to work. Secondly, there was an incident with one of their employees leaving the door open and one of my tenant's cats ran out so he chased the cat down and got bit and I have to pay his medical bill of about $500. Really? It cost you $500 for a cat bite? Lastly, once everything was done, Mrs. C complained that there's still a leak. What the? So did the contractor fixed the problem or was it not even my problem to start off with? read more

The worst...they do nothing for the home owner.. I bought and moved in my home in January 2011 its now June 6 months later and I still hv not received a call back and no one has follwed up with me in regards to my very simple request! All I asked for was to be set up on the gate so that when i had company over they can look up my name and buzz themselves in rather than having to stalk to gate until someone drives in.. I have called and called left msgs and spoke with countless ppl who ask for all this information like they are really going to do something about it...and still nothing... I called again today...lets see how long this sheraide will continue... read more

I have been trying to get an issue with our water, in the Woodlake Village complex in La Habra, CA, resolved for over two years, and now the Lordon representatives won't respond at all. The management is shambles, at best, as there are also constant issues with gates to parking area being broken and walkway/parking lighting being completely out. read more

Less than 24 hours after posting my first Yelp review of Lordon I received an email from Donalea, one of Lordon's supervisors. The issue was quickly handled. Light fixed. Mission accomplished. Property doesn't look ghetto anymore. The other Lordon employees I dealt with completely failed to handle a simple job. If I was the owner of this company I would fire them all -- EXCEPT Donalea. Start over fresh. New employees should get training from her. She's professional, courteous, responsive and handles her business. read more

I would have to say that this is the worst management company that I have ever dealt with. Sara who is our property manager doesn't return phone calls or respond to emails until weeks later. I would leave several messages for Sara over a couple of weeks span requesting that she call me back, but instead she sends me an email. That is not what i asked for. So then I leave a message for her supervisor over a week ago with NO response. Is this the way companies work in 2018? Companies should respond to business calls/emails within an appropriate time frame, 24/48 business hours. Well here's to hope that 2019 will be better for them, but I don't think so. Looking at previous comments, they haven't rated well in the past read more

In working for a title company and assisting subdividers with State mandated paperwork, one of the many things needed to be done is getting in touch with the HOA's Management Company. Quite often the requests for financial records, delinquency statements and copies of current HOA budgets required by the California Department of Real Estate take quite a bit of time and work and are not always turned around quickly. This was NEVER the case with Lordon Property Management, however. Jennifer was consistently friendly, very professional and always extremely helpful in sending out (and sometimes even delivering) the necessary documentation. The quick turnaround of these items confirming the healthiness of the common area and other maintenance responsibilities is beneficial not just for the Subdivider but it also benefits the HOA Board and the actual residents living in the community. I would absolutely recommend Lorden Property Management to those looking for community property management. read more

These are the WORST people you will ever deal with. They managed our property in Azusa back in the late 90's and early 2000's when we lived there. They wrongfully towed vehicles from the property and were absolutely a nightmare to deal with in regards to repairs. If you see their name as the property management of record, then DO NOT PURCHASE OR RENT THERE! If you value your sanity and don't want to deal with a ceaseless stream of bullshit, then avoid this group at all costs! And to Lordon, if you're thinking about harassing me to remove this, think again! read more

Loved this Company. Good Customer Service. They are very efficient. I highly recommend this Company.

I have lived in a property managed by Lordon Management for 10 years. People usually post reviews to complain, but you never hear from all of the satisfied residents. I thought it was time to share a little. Over the past 10 years, our property has been kept in pristine condition. Whenever I have gotten a letter that required service, they have always been kind and gracious in supporting me with solving the problem. In fact, I emailed on a Sunday and had a response on a Sunday! Totally unexpected, but it just goes to show the level of care and pride that they take in supporting their properties and their residents. Thank you Lordon Management for a decade of support and service to me as a resident of our community. read more

I contacted lordon management for an emergency we were having with our plumbing. They responded right away and helped me with my issues with no hesitation.
