The team at MMA has been an amazing partner managing our property in Rancho Palos Verdes. I live across the country, and I rest easy knowing that the property itself (+ importantly, our tenants) are in good hands with Anna and her team. We recently went through a pretty major renovation to the kitchen, bathrooms, and landscape, and I was able to count on MMA to ensure the projects went smoothly. Communication is clear and consistent. Any and all repairs are always taken care of promptly and professionally. I am absolutely blown away with the team at MMA, and would recommend to anyone needing property management services! read more

Horrible. Awful. I lived in a moldy house that ruined most of my belongings and made me sick. I was moving anyway, Anna McElroy told me that I would be given my deposit back. As I result, I didn't retain counsel. My mistake. Anna charged me for removing all the moldy, ruined clothes and furniture and sent an invoice that said, highlighted and underlined "no mold." Please, please, please, if you deal with this company and there's a problem: GET A LAWYER!!! I'm sure they'll respond with something sleazy about how I'm a liar or how I'm wrong but ask yourself why I would waste my time writing this review when I've already moved. I have nothing to gain. The property I lived in was owned by Wind and Sea or something so I'll be reporting both to the BBB, Google reviews, etc. when I get time because these people are disgusting. Here's some mold for you to see. Remember, they may clean it but they won't remediate it so you will be living in moldy home with ants and MMA will tell you it's your fault. If any repairs get done, you will have to call the repair people and take time off work, FYI. Feel free to message me if you want more information about dealing with this company and the property. read more

This is THE WORST MANAGEMENT COMPANY ever!! I honestly don't even know where to start. I gave them one star because I had to to leave a review. The property that I live at in Redondo Beach has a whole 6 units (not big or difficult to run), yet half the time our dumpster is NOT emptied and even when it is, there's still trash left all over which has created an issue with rats. I've emailed and submitted work requests only to have them ignore the problem but they say the work is "completed" on RentCafe. We're now on day #2 of the management co locking our only dumpster and not providing any of us tenants with a key. I've emailed Anna & Brittney & I've also submitted work orders with NO RESPONSE! NOT ONE! Our laundry room is disgusting and it took months and months for MMA INC to even get a trash can in it. We pay $2.50 to wash and $2.25 to dry. And half the time the washer doesn't spin the clothes out enough to be able to put the load directly into the dryer. You have to pay another $2.50. MMA INC has no one come and clean around the property, dumpster or the laundry room even when emailed or submitting work orders. The only way the laundry trash is emptied is because I take it out. That's not my job! And I had to submit multiple work orders requesting the light to be fixed. Our rent was raised $150 on January 1, 2022 & then again on September 1, 2022 for $275. So in just 9 months our rent went up $425 (15.5%). Yes, you read that right. Our rent was illegally raised twice in one year. One of our neighbors decided to move for obvious reasons and they listed her unit (which they did minimal "renovations" on) for $1000 more than the rest of us tenants are paying. We are currently paying $2900 and they're trying to rent that unit for $3900. Clearly they are trying to force us all out so they can price gouge someone else and it's sickening. Seeing the owner of our building comment, (Michael Fisher) raving about these people is 100% laughable. And the unit that had a catastrophic plumbing issue was mine. So for him to say his building was already in good shape is a total lie. It took him 2 months to have our only bathroom fixed after our ceiling completely collapsed in the bathroom due to an ongoing leak from my neighbors upstairs. When they ripped everything out you could visibly see mold. We were told that our apt was still habitable without our ONLY bathroom. When asked where are we supposed to go to use the restroom or shower? They said walk down to the bathrooms at the beach or go to your parents house that's only a few blocks away. We were never offered alternative housing and were still expected to pay our rent. If you're a renter and you see this company, RUN!!! If you end up deciding to rent from them be prepared to have no one coming around on a regular basis to keep the place up, to deal with being unable to use the dumpster for your trash oh & get the longest lease possible so that you don't get hit with huge rent increases twice a year because these people are driven by straight GREED! read more

Anna has been doing a great job managing our properties for the last few years. Always available to take our calls and she always has great recommendations. Great management company and we highly recommend them! read more

Repairs take months to even be acknowledged, let alone fixed, no matter how urgent. My manager never replies to me. We currently have a raging insect/roach infestation, and Brittney Marquez has ignored us for days. It is unsafe and uninhabitable; I am paying rent for an apartment I'm unable to live in. No one from this company will respond or help me. Absolutely disgusting. Avoid signing with them at all costs. I have never had such an awful and unsafe living experience. I would bet that nearly all of these other reviews are fake. read more

This review is for the address 513 s Catalina ave apt f. It is a 290 sf unit and the building is old and not updated see pictures below. We lived there for about 8 months before we had to leave due to the unprofessional behavior of Anna the owner of the property management company and the owner of the building David Willison. One day Anna came to our door for an inspection while we were taken aback since we were not given notice she stood outside insisting she taped a note to the door and it must have flew off very professional. I let her even though she didn't even know my name or my husbands name, she walked in less than 5 minutes, didn't even open drawers turn on faucets like every other inspection I have had. Then the next day as I was home alone a man comes pounding at my door I don't open since I didn't know who he was he was pounding at the door and window for 15 minutes before I opened the door. The guy said he was the owner of the building and asked me how much I paid in rent and if my apartment was ok. I emailed our property manager to let her know of this man and if he was the owner shouldn't Anna have communication with him to let him know of the rent and the state of the apartment? Then I get a email stating they are blaming my husband for making a public stairway dirty and I will have to pay to clean it, and that the electric bill that is included in our rent will be charged starting from when dirt started renting. So after a email lengthy email exchange from Anna and myself I have an email of her stating we are not responsible for the stairs as there is no proof it was my husband. Yet we were still charged out of our security deposit. So honestly save your time with this small company who clearly say one thing and can't back it up. She can't control her clients to let them know they can not come to the door without a notice. It is clear she doesn't know what she is doing because I was charged $240 to paint the stairs when they looked like they the local preschool kids do it, pics below. Also don't rent from this building it is a sad case of someone who thinks since it's by the beach they can charge high rent for a cheap shack. When we found a new place in town to live we ran into one of the tenants there a week after we moved who said they are trying to raise her rent even though nothing is upgraded and the laundry room is always broken. I will say Brittany our property manager was always nice and professional so at least this company has something going for it. So save your time and money and go one street over and you can get an apartment double the size for $100 bucks more! Oh quick side note during Anna's inspection we let her know of a few things that needed fixing (new locks, ceiling fan blade,and bathroom grout) they were never fixed. I don't know if that is because they are bad a time management and can't hire someone to fix it or if it's Because they wanted us out anyway. But anyway hope this review helps you not rent from them! read more

MMA-McElroy Management Associates - The painted stairway that cost $240 what a joke - Property Management Near Me - Rolling Hills Estates, California

Because I live in Northern California, I hired MMA a little less than a year ago to manage my two South Bay properties in Redondo and Hermosa. Their service has been extraordinary. Just prior to the transition, a catastrophic plumbing issue occurred in one of these buildings. Anna and her team were able to resolve all issues almost overnight. Beyond that, the transition truly was a breeze. At Anna's suggestion, new leases were prepared, and full building (and individual unit) inspections were conducted. I was kept apprised at each step, and received a full report. Although the properties were already in very good condition, Anna and her associates made suggestions for further improvements, and then quickly implemented those that I agreed to. Anna clearly has a good sense of the market, and of market rents. She provided me with a market analysis and rent proposal, leading to much higher rents in almost all my units. If you are looking for a hands-on professional property manager, I could not recommend MMA more highly. read more

There communication was great they were super patient and helpful with the unique move I made :)

When we looked for a property manager to manage a condominium we own in Redondo Beach, we interviewed several companies. This included McElroy Management Associates. Our criteria included excellent knowledge & experience in the local market, having the desire and skills to communicate with the HOA and its management company, the tenant, and us as landlords. We lived in the condo for several years, and are committed to maintaining the property in good condition and in obtaining and retaining good tenants. We are so glad we chose McElroy Management Associates.. They are very professional, they are responsive, and they communicate. They add value when one is trying to make decisions. For example, what are the investments to make which tenants value and pay for, and where do you go to get this done? Anna is our primary contact, but MMA exhibits exhibits excellent teamwork. We are treated as part of the team. We highly recommend them to work with you as landlord, the tenants, and with the HOA to maintain your property to a high standard. read more

I am not much of a Yelp person, but felt the need to come sing the praises of Brittney Marquez. We just moved into a rental, and we had some issues. She was very quick to respond and always with a positive attitude. It's nice to know we can count on her while we're renting. Many thanks to Brittney for being so awesome at her job! read more

Slow to respond when there were issues with the rental unit. Workmen sent by the management company were unprofessional and brought their kids to the job. Did a move out inspection and was told my Anna that everything looked good and we would receive our entire security deposit back. When the security deposit finally came, it was half with many deductions Anna did not mention in person. As a landlord this management company may be ok, but keep in mind they do not care about the tenants. read more

I hired Anna McElroy, on the advice of a friend in the business, to manage a high-end townhome rental in Orange County that I purchased in January 2021. Anna gives me excellent personalized service, as compared to dealing with some larger management corporation which doesn't know or care about my concerns or individual circumstances. She has the experience, staff, and network of support services to very competently handle every issue that has come up with my unit. I was particularly impressed with her tenant screening process and her insights when advising me in final tenant selection. She seems very honest and dependable. I get my rent distribution and professional financial statements every month. As a bonus, she is a delightful person to work with and seems to have excellent rapport with my tenant. I highly recommend McElroy Management Associates. read more

Is there such thing as a dynamic TRIO? Sure is, they call it Management Associates, Inc.; Anna, Jessica, and Brittney. They manage a property I live at in San Pedro - been here forever now and don't plan on leaving unless they do. They're located in Rolling Hills yet still handle maintenance matters in the snap of a finger. Their vendors are so accommodating for our crazy schedules and are very prompt. There's nothing like having to manage families, their home, and their finances all in one but it seems to come first hand for them. Each of them have their own professional qualities which help in alleviating anything that arises. My favourite thing about this management company that differ from others is that when you give them a call you won't get some random on the other side of the phone. It's more of a personal experience and makes you feel like you're talking to a friend - as they are understanding and attentive. Thanks girls for all your hard work and effort, please know it is not overlooked! read more

Currently, I manage my own property, but I wanted to say that Anna has always given me the best advice in managing my property as well as the best vendor names. I trust her and her team explicitly and have always been able to count on her. I have passed on her name to my mother and friends and they all have used her advice and services. Once I don't want the headache of handling the management stuff myself, I will be hiring Anna to take care of it for me since I can rest assured she can handle it and understands what my individual property management needs are. read more

I can't say enough about Management Associates. It's not very often where you find a management company that tends to your needs with such promptness and professionalism. They are responsive with issues that arise, and they have a balance between the owners and renters that seem to take care of everyone's needs. If you are looking for a company that is professional and trustworthy, this is the one for you. read more

Anna, Jessica and Brittney are amazing, I remember getting the news from them to let us know we got the apartment, they sounded as excited as we were.

Like I always say ladies, THANKS FOR BEING THE BEST!!! read more

After years of placing ads and interviewing potential renters, it was time to let someone else do the work for me. I was referred to Anna at Management Associates, Inc. by a realtor in my neighborhood. I thought I knew the ins and outs of renting, but Anna and Jessica gave me a great education and advised me that I was actually under valuing my rental. They found me great tenants and detailed our contract so that both my tenants and I have no questions as to our commitments to each other. On top of that, I'm receiving more rent which allows me to put more money back into the property. The cherry on top is working with a family owned business - both Anna and Jessica are very professional and yet I felt like I was working with my family. read more

I used Anna's services for my grandfathers property in Lomita. It was in complete disrepair and not maintained. I really needed her help after taking a month to remodel a bathroom in just one of the units. I was overwhelmed to say the least. Luckily, I already knew about her as she is my good friends sister in law. After her company took over, it was very easy to fix up the property with her connections. She handled everything with meeting the construction guys on site and I never had to worry about it. She also quickly found tenants to live in the units, another thing I never had to worry about. Everything Anna did was top notch, she provides an excellent service. After finding tenants, her company collected rents monthly and a few days later my grandfather would receive a check along with a monthly statement. There's a nice security you have using her services....small relative fee for service and if the tenants don't pay she has a quick and effective plan for that. Peace of mind! Super painless process and on the up and up. I highly recommend her for your rental property! read more
