What a world of a difference. Our association began the search for a new management company when our last, "highly-rated" management company began ignoring emails from the board and missing important deadlines such as our reserve study. The team at Nexus SC worked with the board to ensure a smooth transition, and has been hard at work getting caught up on the work missed. In terms of value, we're paying close to what we did with our previous management while getting an online portal, and digital tools such as Google Workspace for document sharing, on top of the excellent service. Our experience with Nexus has been absolutely fantastic. Jonathan and Olivia are always prompt, and their genuine passion for the work is evident in everything they do. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. I strongly caution any HOA considering this management company. Their level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable. Communication is inconsistent, emails are ignored, and important matters are handled without proper notice or explanation. Our experience with the owner is that he's very unprofessional, and will only respond when legal action is threatened. Even more concerning is the lack of ethical business practices. There is little transparency, and decisions impacting homeowners' accounts appear to be handled carelessly. A property management company should operate with fairness, honesty, and clear communication. this company does not meet those basic standards. All they care about is raising HOA dues so that it's unaffordable for members of the community. read more

Nexus has done a great job managing our community for the past 3+ years. I served as board president during that time and have sold my unit, so I am no longer involved, but I wanted to take the time to write a review based on my positive experience. When we switched to Nexus, our community had dealt with several different managers, some very bad, and the most recent one just unable to competently advise and guide us. Nexus offered us a streamlined approach with an attentive manager and resources to assist the board. They stabilized our community and allowed us as the board to make sound decisions. They handled all of the service calls and bid requests and I really appreciate the cloud based filing system and collaborative tools that streamlined meetings and documents. I highly recommend Nexus to any community looking to improve their community and empower their board. If I find myself in another HOA in the future, I know who to call. read more

I have been working with Ellie Bargrizan form Nexus Smart Communities for a couple of years. She has been delightful to work with. Ellie is very professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and organized. She always responds to emails and requests in a timely fashion. I appreciate all of her great attributes and look forward to many more interactions with her. read more

If only 0 was an option. This management company is in way over their head. Lack of basic HOA knowledge. They took over our HOA and ran it into the ground. They do not do monthly walk throughs (like they're contracted to do) They run their meetings to be listened to not to listen to the homeowners. It takes months to get requested invoices. They're MO is to point blame rather than take responsibility for their mistakes. ZERO accountability. Ellie is always very rude and very pushy to push her agenda, never listening to the homeowners. Edit for response: Me not attending meetings in the past has no pull on right-now issues.It's unfortunate Ellie runs the meetings and doesn't really allow any say or input. The board members just fearfully say 'yes' to all her doings. She uses scare tactics toward the board. It is unfortunate that our current board has not once checked and balanced anything from your company. You have signatures signing current checks of people that haven't been on the board in years? When there's a vote, she only asks for who's in favor, never who's opposed. We are well past the timeline for the accurate documentation that has been requested. Not one document supports the other. Very odd. We also received a yearly budget for a complex in Anaheim that has nothing to do with us. I highly suggest you check your employees' files before you respond. Taking her word for it, clearly, was your first mistake. read more

This review is long overdue as I have been working with the Nexus team on a professional basis for the last 5 years. The Nexus team is responsive, has attention to detail, and try invested in their business relationships and customers. They are on top of inquiries, ask questions, and extremely knowledgeable in the industry. For those of you who trust them with their communities, I can assure you are in great hands. A special should out to ELLIE and RAINA as they are truly some of the best communicators in the industry. read more

I called because I lost my laundry key fob, and Jackiee was absolutely amazing! Super friendly, fast, and efficient. Everything was resolved within minutes. This was honestly the best customer service experience I've ever had at Nexus!" read more

Highly recommend this Property management company! Clear and timely communication, problem-solving, tech savvy, and professional HONEST! Our community just transferred to Nexus a few months ago. Our previous Property management was a mess. Board of directors had to make a tough decision to change the property management. We are happy that we found Nexus! Our community has had a smooth transition so far. Jonathan has been working effectively with the board regarding patrol service, maintenance service, budgeting strategies, to transform our community to a better one! Thank you, Jonathan, for being a man of your word. Kudos to Celeste, our community PM, for being kind and reliable. read more

My first experience with Nexus Smart Communities has been as a service provider for a community managed by Ellie Bargrizan, and she is awesome. Managing community associations can be exceptionally challenging, but my Ellie has been consistently excellent and is a great asset to both NSC and the communities fortunate enough to be managed by her. read more

My Nexus rep Ms. Megan Seals is kind, intelligent and knows her job inside and out! She recently helped me resolve a problem returning my calls and emails faithfully. My issue was completely resolved. Nexus as a company is good but I can't give it five stars because it sends five emails a day and that's just too much email. read more

We've owned a property at Apache Drive in Chula Vista for over 25 years. Under Walter's Property Management we paid our HOA fees promptly every month. When Nexus took over in October of 2025 we no longer received an HOA fee bill either by email or by mail. We are in our 90's. My husband, who is 92, pays the bills. 5 months later, a collection agency notifies us that our account is in default and we now owe $2,550, this inclded late fees and $500 for the collection agency. We did not receive a late notice either by email or mail from Nexus saying that we were late or over due. I get it that we should have been responsible but seems to me they were pretty negligent by not notifying us before turning our account over to a collection agency. I paid the collection agency in total and called Nexus to inquire how we could could pay our monthly fee but they said they couldn't talk to me as long as we were in collection status. Isn't this a friendly Community Organization? Guess again!! read more

We've had the opportunity to work alongside Jonathan and his team at Nexus Smart Communities on several shared clients, and we truly appreciate their approach. Jonathan is very forward-thinking and consistently looks for ways to elevate property management by using technology to create transparency and trust. His active involvement in the HOA management space shows in the way he approaches challenges and delivers solutions that benefit both managers and homeowners. It's refreshing to collaborate with a team that shares a commitment to innovation and professionalism. If you're considering a partner to help transform the HOA management experience, Jonathan and his team at Nexus Smart Communities are definitely worth connecting with. read more

My name is Auna Raquel Pines 1st Nexas smart communites is an awful hoa they did NOT fix the pool, jacuzzi, put back the bbq grills in the bbq area and cut the four tall trees in the pool, jacuzzi area, and they allowed people to target me they did not help me when i was defrauded and suffering when the police was not helping me by getting me help to put the frauder in prison and to give me alot of money to get a dstance from mean people and they were ignoring me in a crisis trying to get a house away from the mean people in the building they had video cameras of the guy who defrauded me and did six months worth of damage and had refused to give me to video footage for the police showing the frauder. this is so bad that i am planning to sue them for 25 million dollars with the police and put them on the news with the police read more

Nexus turned our community into the worst place to live and they continue to do so! You have created animosity between owners! You issue violations that are harassing and discriminatory without first meeting with the legal team. Don't blame the past! Admit your wrongdoings and make them right! You messed up Jonathan! Your company should not continue to blame the board! Besides any of this, Where is Nexus??? They aren't here at this community! You have never been here to even walk or work at this dirty, violated property! The stairwells smell like dog urine desperately needing paint and old carpet replaced!Our pool continues to remain empty for years now but our HOA fees have been raised to almost $500 as you try to prepare everyone to take on an outrageous special assessment while you laugh and smile! Pictures have been repeatedly sent to your company of these surroundings and they go ignored! Above all, do your job and help us take care of our community, instead of causing more issues! Make everyone follow the rules including members of the board! Avoid special interests and selective treatment. Don't continue this bad business practice! Make it right! Stick to your claims ensuring EVERY homeowner feels supported! These are facts! Our door is always open, you're welcome anytime, we need to spread love not hate! read more

I don't know when we switched to this property management company, but they are the absolute worst. They just switched our parking permits over to courtesy patrol and have denied my parking permit when I have three vehicles registered to my address. Clearly I cannot fit three vehicles in my garage. When I contacted courtesy patrol, they said they denied my parking permit because they went to inspect my garage again. For what? What do you need to inspect? Clearly, I can't park three vehicles in my garage and I already did a garage inspection so I don't understand what the deal is. I've tried to reach them and have been unsuccessful. I've tried calling and leaving a voicemail and have not heard back from anyone. I just sent an email today and I'm hoping that maybe I'll get an email back but this is absolutely insane that I have to waste so much of my time to deal with a problem that should not be a problem. read more

We live in San Diego and found out on September 30th around 5:00 pm our management company has changed to Nexus Smart Communities through an email asking for our HOA fees on October 1st. I called the previous management company regarding the email and they told us we should have received a welcome packet. NEVER RECEIVED IT. We have been left in the dark with no ideal what is going on. Spoke to another resident regarding the change and they had no clue as well. I hope this is not a foreshadowing of what is to come. GOOD WAY TO START OUT NEXUS!!! Ken Wilmesherr read more

Nexus has been a great company to work with. We've had the pleasure of working with Leah, and she has been absolutely wonderful--responsive, professional, and truly helpful. Highly recommend! read more

Ellie with Nexus Smart Communities has been an excellent partner. She is professional, responsive, and very knowledgeable when it comes to HOA and condominium collections. It is a pleasure to work with her. read more

This management company is a joke. Their own outgoing emails mention to essentially not rely on the app as a communication tool and instead provide various emails to contact for different issues. Then when you email the various emails they tell you to just use the app. Additionally, the company can barely provide HOA statements of amounts due. Clearly they're in over their heads. The people I've interacted with over email have been pretty passive aggressive as well and overall not helpful. Do not recommend. read more

At a recent meeting and after backing deposed board members, Jonathan could not explain or even remember the cost associated with a major project on our property. This is not a property management service. This is a disservice of property mismanagement. Jonathan and Nexus Smart Communities can only offer excuses while passing the blame on to a number of board members instead of working toward solutions. Nothing smart about this company. They deserve more one-star reviews. Choose another company that is competent, smart, creative, and worthy. read more

Leah Slutskaya, CMCA is amazing to work with. With all of the insurance criseses out there, i commend her for starting the discussionand process for her communities manged 4 to 6 months in advance is really going to make a difference for her communities. As a fellow CMCA and designated industry partner (CIRMS), it is so important to understand how exactly to lean on your experts, and Leah has incorporated this into her professional conduct! read more

Don't know where to start... manager did not show up to the first meeting. Called me unprofessional when I request for documents. Trying to pay online and it is ridiculously difficult.. Manager doesn't respond on a timely manner and often ignores your emails. I will not recommend this company to anyone. read more

I love working with Ellie Bargrizan! I'm the Vice President of our 156-unit HOA and am so impressed with her knowledge of HOA law, her responsiveness to board and homeowner questions and requests for assistance. Ellie prepares very detailed board meeting packets and is always on top of what is happening and what needs to be implemented or accomplished. She is a property manager extraordinaire who has earned my highest recommendation. read more

As a vendor, it is great to work with a management team like Nexus. The communication has been great with Leah and her team! We continue to run successful projects with them. read more

After dealing with a previous property management company that were a disaster, speaking as a homeowner and a board member.I have been impressed with Nexus Smart Communities in the short time that they have been managing our property.Working with Jonathan and and Leah Slutskaya it's are pleasure. She is very knowledgeable, professional, incredibly responsive, always make sure that the job is done correctly. Her communication is clear and timely, and you can tell she genuinely cares about the people she serves. We are so happy working with Nexus Smart Communities read more

Leah Slutskaya has been such a pleasure to work with! She is professional, responsive, knowledgeable and just a wonderful human being!

WHERE IS NEXUS? We can't get ahold of anyone to save our lives. They are absent in every possible way. Their knowledge of rules, regulations and CA state laws pertaining to HOAs is non existent. I regret voting to switch management companies so badly. Please avoid this company. Nexus Smart Communities will woo you than leave you! Completely unprofessional, unreliable and unknowledgeable. read more

Working with Jackee Hong at Nexus has been very easy and less time consuming on multiple occasions to resolve issues in our Condominium Complex ..Jackee gets a full understanding of the issue is before moving on to a next path forward saving time and expense for our community.. read more

Communication/scheduling repairs have been slow as a snail with this HOA. We are in an ongoing repair for our newly bought condo and scheduling is a headache. First they told us the repair will only be 3 days and we needed to find accommodation during that time period. Now they tell us we need to find accommodation beyond the 3 days. Google hours say they are operating from 8AM-5PM but they never answer the call after 3 PM. Architectural request also takes so long for approval, it took 40 days for our last one. If we are paying so much for HOA fee they need to show some professionalism to the residents. read more

As a homeowner of a condo, there are alot of frustrations dealing with HOAs but this has been very frustrating. No response from their team for over a week regarding an ongoing issue, our HOA has risen over 100 dollars since they took over. Meetings are inappropriate and we are timed when we try to speak on issues like we are in kindergarten. No logical explanation is given when work requests are not approved and placed responsibility on the homeowner even though the issue is from the inside of the building which is the HOAs responsibility. A week since I have received a response to me emails or a return to my voicemails. read more

Ellie has been our property manager for the past two years, and she's made a huge difference. She's super organized, responsive, and consistently on top of the details. We had a lot to sort through after switching from significantly less organized company, and Ellie's helped us clean things up and bring some much needed structure to how we operate. It's been a steady improvement, and she's made things a lot easier for our board. Grateful to be working with her. read more

Working with Leah is always so great -- she's professional, kind and a joy to do business with!

We had an issue with our garage door and reached out to the HOA to resolve it. Reina responded to us, and from that moment on, she was incredibly professional and patient. She contacted the other homeowners (with whom we had no direct communication) and also reached out to an external company to handle the problem -- all with urgency and efficiency. We truly felt that she was with us every step of the way, and we're very satisfied with the way she handled everything. She even followed up the next day with a phone call to make sure the issue was resolved. Even though we were a bit short, Reina remained kind and pleasant throughout. Many thanks -- we wish there were more like her! read more

Very poor service. They will show that they have mobile app and the service will be excellent. But, after we implement in out community then we came to know that work ethics are not good. You make a request then they will sit on it forever and things move very slow. read more

Raina is going above and beyond for our community! We had a few common area plumbing issues, and she got everything handled right away.

We have been working with Nexus for many years now and the team over there is top notch. They take care of their clients and their utilization of technology makes for a smoother process when working with them and their communities. Way to go Jonathan and team! read more

We work with Nexus Smart Communities and specifically Ellie. She is amazing! Everyone at Nexus is professional and attentive and we cherish the working relationship we have with them! read more

I love Nexus Smart Communities! They have been instrumental in developing our small Santa Ana HOA into a thriving and well managed community. A special shout out to Jonathan D. who leads the way, but an extra special thanks to Leah S. who has been our Community Engagement Partner. Leah's experience and leadership help make our community and board operate with ease and success. Thanks and I can't express the gratitude for the support! read more

I recently bought a condominium at Zinnia/Nexus Smart Communities, my agent and myself reviewed the HoA documentation and found no refrences to permits required to park on the street at night. Since parking on street was my most fundamental requirement, I bought the condo after carefully reviewing the documents. After few weeks, my car parked on the street was towed in middle of night. I discovered that they have implemented permit parking only months before I bought that condo. They had not mentioned the permit parking - and the street had no sign of no parking without permit displayed either. I was completely misled by this HoA and would not recommend it to anyone. read more
