I've been using SD Discount Property Manager for well over 10 years across multiple rental properties, and they have been absolutely outstanding. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail have consistently exceeded my expectations. One of the biggest benefits has been the incredibly low vacancy rate. They've done an exceptional job keeping my properties occupied with quality tenants. Whenever an issue has come up (because things inevitably happen in property management), communication has always been prompt, transparent, and proactive, and every problem has been resolved quickly and professionally. Maintenance requests are handled efficiently, repairs are completed without unnecessary delays, and service costs have always been fair and reasonable. Managing rental properties from a distance can be stressful, but SD Discount Property Management has made it virtually worry-free. After more than a decade as a customer, I can confidently say they've earned my complete trust. I genuinely couldn't ask for a better property management company and recommend them without hesitation. read more

I've been using John's property management service for over 5 years, and he's been great. He's reliable, responsive, and his management fee is very reasonable. I also appreciate that he has a trusted handyman, so repairs get done quickly. Most importantly, John is honest and easy to work with. I will definitely recommend him! read more

John has been a great property manager. I lived in one of his properties for two years and always had the support I needed. He made the leasing process really easy, was always attentive to our needs, and was very fair whenever we had problems come up. Highly recommended! read more

Update: It's been about 2 years since my initial impression of John. The relationship started out well, but more and more he became unresponsive and not detail oriented. We've received bills from other properties, emails with so many typos it's difficult to decipher, and had to make repeated requests for monthly reoccurring issues. When our renters had an issue with the kitchen faucet we had to request several times to have a plumber look at it before John agreed. We almost replaced our 1k faucet 100% under warranty for a $50 fix. For all of these reasons I would not recommend John's services. Old review: John is all about business. As a property manager he's been responsive to us and worked hard to secure a renter in just a couple of weeks. We were super happy that our unit was only vacant for 5 days, saving us a substantial amount of money. We believe John found us a good renter and they signed a lease for almost 2 years. John's management fees are also extremely reasonable. We would highly recommend John for your property management needs. read more

Everyone should have a John Rim! We worked with John for several years and he was incredibly responsive. He always knew the best individuals for whatever we needed. He consistently referred honest, reputable, hard working people for any home maintenance or repairs. He is truly a people-person and I would recommend him 100%!! read more

I don't normally write Yelp reviews, but had such a wonderful experience living here - I have to! John was great and always responsive to any questions we had. As an undergrad, safety and convenience were the most important factors of a home to me, and I definitely felt both through my time here. Great service! read more

John Rim is the best Property Manager that we have found in our 13 years of rental property experience in San Diego with several companies. He is excellent in various aspects of the rental property management. He manages the interactions between the renter/owner in a highly professional manner to ensure benefit and satisfaction of both parties. He is very prompt in providing all monthly and annual statements and highly responsive to any questions at any time. With his pleasant and gentle demeanor, we have been extremely pleased with his service. He supported most of the repair/maintenance activities needed in the house with his contractors in a very reasonable and efficient manner; an area where with others, we did not find the same level of reliable and cost-effective service. We highly recommend John Rim for excellent, reliable service at a reasonable fee. read more

Compared to the previous PM I dealt with, John has made my family and I so happy! He communicates in a timely manner and I appreciate how it's been so easy to simply text/email him. He is exceptionally professional!! John - I appreciate you looking at situations both from an owner and tenant perspective!!! I appreciate all the work you do!! THANKS A BUNCH!!!!!! read more

John has been great to me first as a renter and now as a property owner. When I was a renter at my last house the property manager tried to jerk us around on our move out and deposit. John was able to consult with me on what my rights were and what was the best way to handle the situation. We got out when we wanted and got our full deposit back. Now as an owner of a rental unit myself, John has been able to prove himself again. He is experienced, knowledgeable, and resourceful. So far with any problem, John has always known what to do or had a referral on hand of the right guy for the job. Every interaction with him is comfortable and clear. As a property manager, John is exactly what you want. He takes care of everything so that owning property can feel easy. read more

If you are looking for a good property manager, you just found one! In all my years I have only seen very very few things that are just too good to be true, ended up being true. John Rim and his company SD Discount Property Manager LLC was one of that. John is a great property manager / real estate agent, professional, honest , caring and just a plain great guy. We had a very complicated situation with one of our properties and if it was not for him it would have been a real big mess. John knows what he is doing, he likes what he is doing and he cares. Do I need to say more? read more

John is a fantastic property manager. Our family has been using his services for ~5 years now. He's dedicated and fair to both the tenant and home owner. If there's an issue, he notifies all parties ASAP. He also provides excellent recommendations when it comes to repairs, appliances, etc. He has been successful in finding reliable tenants, even during the holidays. I personally can't say enough about John. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a property manager. read more

Great LL. We were a tenant, and John was always available by email or text, often getting back to within the same day. I would absolutely rent from him again read more

Great property manager, we've been renting from John for 2 years, he is always on top of any issue that arises. Highly recommend using him to rent from or have him manage your property. read more

John is the best landlord we ever had. After a traumatizing experience in our last home, we were nervous about how this one would go. John exceeded all of our expectations as a landlord. Unlike our last experience, John was honest, communicative, and addressed any issues or concerns promptly. Overall John is a fantastic person, and we'll miss having him as our landlord. We would recommend John to any property owner or renter. read more

Jon was extremely responsive, professional and communacative. He was easily reachable via phone, email or text. His company has a timely crew of landscapers and appliance repairmen. He calmly talked us through minor issues as well, having had a rich experience in the industry. Overall, it is a very impressive company. read more

I've been using SD Discount Property Management for years and John has been awesome. He keeps my properties rented and never gives me problems. read more

John was great as a property manager. Very quick to respond and attentive to anything that we needed for the unit. I rented from him for the two years I lived in San Diego (2015-2017) and had nothing but positive experiences and would recommend this company to anyone looking to buy or rent in San Diego! read more

I have known John Rim professionally for some time now. As an MBA graduate from Pepperdine Univ., you know he's head and shoulders above your run of the mill property manager. He is honest, helpful, and hard working. Give him a shot! read more

I've known and worked with John Rim for 4 years now. He is extremely professional, charges very fair fees (about half the going rate) and we have never gone more than one month without a tenant. Highly recommend. read more

John is very professional in property management. He is always beside to help you when it is needed. I am very happy to have my property under his management. Thank you! read more

I have referred John to a number of my clients and I have heard nothing but positive and happy feedback. It is a breath of fresh air having a responsible property manager that I can rely on to take just as good care as I do of my clients. It is not so common anymore unfortunately. John is definitely in the crowd of caring ones and I am glad we crossed paths. Oh, and so are my clients. Give him a shot. You will not be disappointed. read more

The most surprised and confused relationships I ever had with property manager. In short: found house in San Diego; met with John; asked in details about house including if there is AC in it (John confirmed), agreed move-in date; John promised that house will be ready (clean and repaired) on the move-in date; signed lease, paid deposit; several days before move-in have called to John to make sure that house would be ready for move-in (John confirmed); moved-in, house wasn't cleaned nor repaired; after first 2 house being in house have discovered that is has no AC generator (though there is AC device and vents inside the house); John initially navigated me over the phone how to turn-on AC, but after hour called me back that according documents there is no AC in that house (?!?); during next days his handyman came to fix issues which should be fixed before our move-in; John proposed us a lease-free period until we search for a new house; in a week we found new house and happily moved out and break any further relationships with John; we payed to John, he "forgot" about lease-free proposition. As conclusion - total disaster with John and house owner, glad don't have business with him anymore. P.S. Frankly after my experience with John I can't understand all positive review about his "professionalism". read more

John was always very responsive and would get things taken care of when they needed it. He was professional and also kind.

We hired John after interviewing half a dozen property management companies whose rates were on average about 2.5-fold higher. We were worried about the "no free lunch" aspect of hiring someone who claimed to provide the same level of service for less than half as much, but his online reviews were excellent. We also picked a few online reviewers and asked John to put us in contact with them. All the stories lined up and we hired him. After a year of working together, I have to say he has exceeded our expectations in every way. He spent a lot of time interviewing tenants and hosting potential tenants at our house in an effort to get us the best possible tenants and the highest monthly rent in spite of the fact that his contract (unlike most of the aforementioned agencies) did not provide additional compensation for filling a vacant unit. (The selected tenants have been excellent, BTW). Routine maintenance issues have been handled in a diligent and cost-effective manner, and all we really do is collect a check every month. He's always pleasant and treats both us and the tenants with courtesy and respect. Five stars and no complaints. Those who are acquainted with me personally know that's rare language coming from me. read more

If you have a property to rent/lease, just trust John Rim and his company to do all the complicated job for you, so you don't have to go through advertising, putting "FOR RENT" signs every corner, having OPEN HOUSE, doing credit checks, and much more headache-causing things on the list just to rent a property by yourself. This company's service is worth every penny! I've been using this company to take care of everything for my investment property for about 8 years now (company used to be under different name, but with the same manager). I've been in and out of country for the last few years without any worries. John is very professional, organized, responsible, and he will definitely help you save money in the long run! I could not have kept my rental property throughout the previous years of real-estate market crash without SD Discount Property Manager's service. read more

We have worked with John Rim for a couple of years now and have always found him to be great to work with. He also pays in a very timely manner which is important to our business. A great guy that I recommend highly. read more

John is super responsive to all of our requests and questions through e-mails. I trust him with management of all my properties. Highly recommend him for management with reasonable fee. His fast responsiveness results in our property got rented in record time. read more

John is the best! We were living out of state and bought a house in SD, because it had everything we wanted in the location we wanted, and we knew we wanted to move here eventually to be close to family. We were a little nervous about renting out our future house, especially from a distance, but John took care of everything - he found great tenants for us, communicated when needed (but did all the heavy lifting himself), and returned our house to us in the same condition as when we first bought it! His rates are great and he is very professional and knowledgeable. If I had another property to rent out, I wouldn't hesitate to call John immediately. read more

As a first time homeowner, I was very nervous about moving across the country and renting out my condo. I am so thankful I have John as my property manager! He is absolutely amazing. He goes above and beyond what I expected from a property manager and never worry because I know the condo is in good hands with him. read more

John is straight forward no drama manager. He is honest and helpful. He manages 4 units for me and I have no hesitation to recommend him to anyone. read more

He's gone out of his way to make our living situation enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to anyone trying to find a place to rent. read more

We moved to Texas 2 years ago and had a lot of trepidation on having a rental in San Diego from being so far. Fortunately, we got a referral to John Rim to manage our property and from the time we left San Diego, to working with our renters, and helping transition to new renters, John has been very professional, on top of things, and a delight to work with (for us and our renters). We would highly recommend John to anyone! read more

John Rim is fast to find solutions, quick to communicate, and extremely hard working. He is efficient, competitively priced, and very friendly. He was willing to take on one of my properties that just came out of an eviction. One day after I called him, he met with my previous property manager, took photos, then a few hours later was able to provide me with a report and proposed solutions. Once the management agreement was signed, he started IMMEDIATELY to get the property into rental condition. He is 100% a professional and gives me confidence my property is being taken care of. read more
