We own a single-family home in the San Fernando Valley and originally tried renting and managing it…read moreourselves. With all of the city and state laws and regulations, we decided we wanted professionals who really knew what they were doing. We interviewed almost a dozen property management companies, and Derek and Jared Karpel at KIG Property Management stood out by far. Their legal background and knowledge of insurance and construction gave us a lot of confidence, and they are always available when we have a question or want to talk something through. What we appreciate most is the personal attention. They really care about our property, help us make smart decisions, and make sure our tenants are well taken care of. We feel very comfortable having KIG manage our home and would highly recommend them.

Derek and Jared have been managing my rentals for over 3 years now and I'm very happy with the…read moreservice. I'm an out-of-state investor, so it's imperative to have management that truly cares and looks after my units as an extension of me. It's rare to find property managers like these guys with all the value they provide. I haven't had one tenant headache since I started working with them. Everything (thank G-d) has been extremely smooth.

While there were a few minor delays along the way, Daniel Glaser from Glaser Property Management was ultimately very helpful in getting everything taken care of. He is always quick to respond whenever we have an issue at our place, which we really appreciate. His handyman, Dave, helped coordinate the next steps with Fred Mokhtari at Blinds R Us, who measured our windows. Fred went above and beyond, even coming out a second time just to re-verify two windows we were unsure about. Today, Francisco from Blinds R Us installed the blinds. He is a true professional--meticulous, experienced, and focused on perfection. He took extra care adjusting every piece until it was flawless. A great team effort, wonderful communication, and a fantastic final product. Thank you to everyone involved!

They've known about this for at LEAST a month and have done absolutely nothing to address the fact that: 1. My window sill is DETACHING from the building I live in 2. The wood is warping and rotting from all the heavy rain, which will eventually lead to mold 3. The roach problem has appeared to exacerbate as a result 4. There are random, frequent leaks in areas of both buildings 5. They respond inconsistently to emails 6.

The absolute WORST management company in History!!!! The AC in all the units is currently NOT…read moreWORKING with the exception of the unit that does not have central air. One neighbor has been out for over a week, the technician came out to "fix" it for them, telling them they need a part and will have to wait. Last night ours goes out. (It's currently 86 degrees in our apartment.) We obtain the number of the AC technician and they don't have any tickets for maintenance for our complex. After insisting to continue to look for a maintenance request they found one for the neighbor who needed a part but it was working fine according to the technician company. This is just my literal and figurative boiling point with them. There are dozens of other examples of their complete and utter incompetency. They should not be in control of any housing. They have and will continue to be reported to the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety as well as the Better Business Bureau. ALL of the 5 Star positive reviews are from Non-tenants! Example: - Sophia Saul, who has installed solar panels on their properties as well as does staging for rentals. NOT A TENANT. - Joy Afaneh, a woman who turned to Empire West Property Management after inheriting two Los Angeles properties from her deceased uncle which she was too inexperienced to manage herself. Joy accredits EWPM for evicting 17 "squatters" and I quote, "She helped us get a broker who sold these two distressed properties." Distressed properties is what Empire West Property Management excels at. - James Antonucci, a real estate agent in Studio City. - Michael Lefonts, real estate broker. If you don't get the gist you might be as slow as EWPM. They may have a multitude of properties but that's no excuse for not having adequate staff nor conducting proper routine inspections of the equipment concerning the amenities they are responsible for. Waiting for something to go wrong and only having a singular resource for amending is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. .

If you are a single woman living alone please consider literally any place else. Woodland Trio is…read morean apartment of last resort. I moved here for the park up the street so my dog could have some space to run around; I stayed for two years. The benefit of the complex is that it is centrally located. Freeway entrances are right across the street which is convenient for a morning commute. The cons of the complex are lengthy. I have experienced someone from the complex attempting to unlawfully enter my apartment at least twice. I have a big dog that prevented entry, but signs of attempt were clear. My apartment flooded within three or four months of my moving in. The complex told me they would provide me with a check to cover damage and expenses in having to relocate to a hotel for four nights with my dog. I did not receive any such check; instead they credited my rent $500 and called it a day. My expenses due to their negligence were closer to $1500. The area is extremely unsafe. The complex is aware of break-ins to cars in the garage almost monthly and does nothing to update security. There is an "emergency" maintenance line that is never answered. Any real emergencies will leave you feeling panicked, frantic, and forgotten. That's exactly what you are. When tenants unfortunately suffer evictions, notices are posted on the glass door for everyone to see. There is nothing "luxury" about broadcasting evictions. Jones & Jones are slum lords. If you are a single woman living alone, please consider literally any place else. Unless you have a big dog. And even then... please consider any place else.

PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM WOODLAND TRIO, especially Jones & Jones Management -- A Long-Term Tenant's…read moreWarning Note: the only positive reviews are from 5 years prior and beyond. TLDR: Slumlord conditions. Jones & Jones is one of the largest apartment building owners in Los Angeles--and one of the worst. I stayed partly out of spite and partly to fight against greedy corporate landlords who rely on tenant exhaustion and legal costs to get away with this behavior. This is still my home. They are doing everything to force tenant turnover after one year. Long-term residents are a problem to them. Consider this a warning. You will regret moving here. I regret living here now. Greedy corporate landlord is exactly what they are. They respond to reviews publicly while ignoring tenant complaints, maintenance issues, health & safety concerns, & emails. Have lived here for 16 years and have watched this building go from a genuinely good place to live into something intentionally hostile to long-term residents. I am a dependable tenant who always pays rent on time. The turning point was 2020, when on-site management changed, managers were removed, & everything shifted--for the absolute worst. Since then, Jones & Jones has made it clear they want long-term tenants out. Everything I describe is documented with in multiple ways. 1. Pandemic Price Gouging & Christmas Eve Rent Notice: In 2020, during COVID-19 and a state of emergency, they tried to raise long term tenant rents (including mine) by $1,000+ per month, plus a security deposit. This was blatant price gouging. Even worse, they sent the first rent increase notice on Christmas Eve. I remember opening that notice and breaking down in tears. Who can suddenly afford that kind of increase during a pandemic? Without hours of wasted time and help from the Coalition for Economic Survival and Neighborhood Legal Services, it would have gone through. 2. Entering Apartments Without Notice: Management entered my apartment multiple times without warning. Installing a doorbell camera stopped it. 3. Abusive Neighbor: For over two years, a loud, abusive neighbor terrorized our nights screaming, fighting, slamming things against walls with her boyfriend. Excessive music as well. But I mean the screaming waking one up at 3:30 am regularly for 2 years. Management's only advice: "Call the cops." No intervention or support. Just pass the problem back to the tenants. This could have been handled responsibly if management cared. 4. Rent Increases, No Improvements: Rent rises every year to the maximum, with no upgrades. The building is falling apart. 5. Communication So Bad It's Almost Impressive: Emails ignored. Follow-ups ignored. Unless it is an unavoidable emergency maintenance issue, they do not respond. This is standard operating procedure. I have the emails to prove it. 6. Laundry Issues: Shared washers and dryers are $3 per load, 16+ years old, break weekly, and steal money. Vendor is unresponsive. 7. The "gym that's never gets finished" has been under construction for two years--far longer than promised. Ask for updates? No response. 8. Brand New Windows That Leak Every Time It Rains: New windows were installed two years ago. The first rainstorm revealed massive leaks. Water pours down the walls. I reported it immediately. Nothing happens. Blue tape marks the leaks--and is still there. Why spend money on upgrades only to destroy the building from the inside? Floods downstairs neighbors entrance every rain. 9. Emergency Unreachable: LADWP transformer exploded. Windows blew out. Residents scared. Fire department could not reach management. Resident "night manager" (a lovely neighbor who was a bartender) was at work and unreachable. Emergency maintenance line only covers plumbing--not building-wide emergencies. Unacceptable. 10. Theft & No Security: Packages stolen, parking garage and cars broken into, callbox ripped off building, mail stolen - all multiple times in 2025 alone. But many times 2020 - 2024. No security or support provided. 11. Major construction is happening in the apartment next to mine--ripping down a wall due to city code violations. No notice. On a quiet morning, the building shook from a massive BOOM. I nearly fell off the couch. All they had to do was send a simple notice about construction times. Emails ignored. 12. Flies constantly in hallways. Enough said. 13. A Hallway That Smelled Like Death: A former male resident covered in feces and urine roamed the halls, touching doors, machines, and vending machines. The smell was unbearable. Air purifiers or fresheners requested. No response. Stopping here only because yelp has character limits. Update 02/04/26: the BS continues. They respond "we would love an opportunity to speak with you". Have they reached out? NOPE. They only do it publicly so prospective future tenants see it.

It is because of their sterling reputation that my partner and I entrusted Will and his team with our purchase and sale of three different types of residential properties: condominium, single family residence, and multifamily property. From our experiences, here are top three reasons why we recommend Will and his team and would use him again for our next purchase or sale: 1. Will is a great advocate when it comes to negotiating offers and counteroffers and in dealing with other parties. His stunning background in international trade policy and Hollywood comes into play here at the client's advantage. Will helped us strategize and obtain good outcomes on all of our sales and purchases. 2. Will is a great advisor. His strong local knowledge about the neighborhoods and local regulations is founded on his brokering, property management, and development experience in LA. From neighborhood safety, zoning, entitlements, easements, to landlord-tenant matters, we knew we could count on Will and his team to get it right. 3. Will is a great connector and has deep connections in the real estate industry. He is just one speed dial away if you need a solid connection to a handyman, a CPA who advises real estate investors, a real estate attorney, or a home staging specialist. We've consulted with everyone Will has recommended and have been happy with them all. Will and his team have handled all of our matters expeditiously and to our great satisfaction. We wholeheartedly recommend them for any residential matters in LA.
