What an absolute joke. We came to an open house for one of their townhomes, waited for 30 minutes, called the main office several times (including the direct contact, Gavin who confirmed this time 2 days ago over text) and nobody ever showed up or answered. There's no point in them updating the open house times on their website every Thursday because no one will even be there to open the door to tour the space. No one will answer your phone call or messages either. Stay away from SLPM. read more

What a waste of time dealing with this company. Drove 30 minutes to one of their home tours, and legit nobody was there. Called every number on their website multiple times, and got no response at all. So unprofessional. We even texted the 715 area code number on their website the day prior to confirm the open house and they said they'd have someone there, but I guess that was just a lie. Why bother giving a company like this money when they act like this prior to even renting a unit. Hard pass. read more

SLPM does a great job as my property manager. They are professional return calls quickly when I have concerns and are very easy to work with. I wish I had used them sooner. Steve and his staff are great! Debbie Y. read more

Lost my phone down the elevator shaft in one of the buildings they managed and Suzie Garcia from SLPM helped me tremendously. Gave me all the options on getting it back and responded quickly when I contacted her. Instead of paying a $350 for a special fee... I ended up getting my phone back in a few days. read more

I called this place today about a property. I had a couple of questions while looking for a place for someone else. The lady who answered the phone acts like you have to basically move in first before you can get any of these things addressed. There is a big storage shed right there at the front door. She said she couldn't make the tenant move it. Indeed, a storage shed should be in the backyard or the side of the house, not right between your front doors. I shouldn't have to be a tenant first for you to ask a tenant to move it to the back. It looks tacky, so I told her I guess if someone put their garbage there right at the porch you couldn't do anything either because it's nothing in the lease saying a garbage can should be in the backyard or on side of the house somewhere. Then I asked, "Who takes care of the yard ?" Do they take care of it or the tenant ? (As it looks horrible on the picture). None of these questions could be addressed because I was not a tenant yet. Who wants to move into a place that already has issues and can't start getting them addressed until they move in. That makes no sense. I would not pay this company to manage my property. read more

They are handling our HOA and doing an excellent job. I highly recommend them for HOA management.

Highly recommended ! As a former landlord SLPM was our management company in the SF Bay Area. They did an exceptional job. They kept us abreast of Covid restrictions and helped us reach an amicable agreement with our last tenants. Great communication and reasonable management fee. read more

SLPM feels like a prank! One big joke because there's no way this company is conducting actual business as they refuse to answer the phone and only conduct open houses on weekends. Why would an owner pay a company to show their property ONE DAY per week for ONE HOUR? I really won't put too much more thought into this but I encourage you to check out the website. In most cases, SLPM doesn't even bother to provide decent photos of the unit. read more

I am not sure where to start. My HOA selected SLPM as our fourth (fifth?) property management company in a year. From the very beginning Grace was rude and uncooperative. I have been asking for financial information that I have a legal right to for over a year and they still have not complied. They have provided very little by way of financial information, and ignore some information requests outright. They stopped maintaining the pool on a regular basis and when I reported slimy green algae where kids swim to the county, who shut it down, they complained that I reported it. When I tried to serve the association with a lawsuit I found out that they haven't registered with the state as the agent of service as required by law. They changed the mail keys that provide access to not only my mail but also the pool and other amenities that I am paying for. They refuse to simply mail the new keys to the PO Box that I had to open and they insist that I retrieve my new keys from the unit of the board member who I am suing. This is a bottom tier property management company that seems it will do anything for a buck. If they start managing your property it is not a good sign. read more

The rudest people that have a very loose relationship with honesty. I have never done a yelp review in my life, but checked here as we could not imagine that we were the only ones flabbergasted by the level of incompetence and absolute rudeness. Obviously the overwhelming majority of reviewers have had similar experiences. To all owners: beware. There are great companies out there to manage your HOA. This company will act in a way as your agent that is actionable. Do yourself a favor. Avoid this business at all costs. Negative stars deserved. read more

HILARIOUS UPDATE: The owner Gary emailed me and stated this about his management company re: posting notices (which directly contradicted his own team) " We, however are NOT secretarial services for other real estate companies" Okay.....ummm..However his agent Naomi who btw has been very nice said this" "Yes I will go ahead and post notices for you tomorrow" Sooo, do they or don't they post notices? The owner says NO they are NOT secretaries yet the employees have twice said yes they do give notices. I learned that company culture comes from the Top down, since Gary is a nasty man he gives license to his team to be just as ridiculously rude. Thus the ONE STAR rating from the dozens and dozens and dozens of perfectly nice folks just trying to get an apartment and communicate with owners. Very sad. Don't worry Gary, I posted my own notices and will try to ask you as few questions as possible even though you charge 5% a month for services!!!! So sorry for asking you to do your job. Just Wow. ---------------------------------------- THEY DESERVE A ZERO - Possibly the very worst Property Management Company EVER. DO NOT USE THEM. It is just one excuse after another, and the communication is so bad you have to wonder if they even have an email system. I asked them to post notices on the tenants door and TWICE they "forgot" so I had to reschedule everything AND we were under contract with tight contingencies. TWICE. I mean, they can't put a piece of paper on a door so DO NOT TRUST THEY CAN DO ANYTHING ELSE. I had to ask about placing some bark in the front, the "conversation" took 3 weeks to get done, round and round and round and round. AND they never told me when they were doing the bark or when it was done. NO COMMUNICATION - This is the epitome of the everything wrong in a company. PLUS they get defensive such as "yours is not our only property" (really?) Just nasty and incompetent people I cannot beg you enough to use anyone or nobody at all. read more

I have ended up filling a complaint with the BBB. Anyone having issues with this company should do the same. They should not be allowed to get away with the treatment we are receiving as tenants! WITHHOLD THE RENT UNTIL THE JOB IS COMPLETE! These Assholes are now trying to cover up and make excuses for all of the failed jobs they have done and false advertisement. I have since been subject to maintenance coming wherever they want without notice. They say they are going to fix one thing and then do another. And the company DeMiguel plumbing and slpm are giving me the run around and won't commit to an appointment!!! read more

Follow up my poor review and confirmation of the level of unprofessionalism of this company and Leanne specifically! Leanne decided to send an email to the 43 owners in my building with my review including my name. The review is public information so I wouldn't care about it so much, except she then followed that message up with positive messages she claims to have received from 14 owners. . .but redacted their names. The reviews that call her a bully and cite that she retaliates against anyone leaving a negative review are 100% accurate. Again please save yourself lots of headache and go with another property management company. read more

Went to view a property walked past the person showing apartment multiple times . He said nothing to me. He never got out of his car. very unprofessional. read more

SLPM Association Management Services - Property Management Near Me - San Leandro, California

Ima keep it real. We were looking for something affordable and easy on credit. Its hard I know but dont use this place. Because I emailed these people and called them. No response in two weeks. Covid is not keeping people that busy. I've did a walk thru for the property still haven't heard from the people. I read the reviews and saw the scam of taking people's money and keeping properties listed as available. Its been over a month and the properties I saw are still listed . I dont know who to report them to but maybe the better Business bureau. Thats not okay. Dont waste your time. It doesn't take more than two business days for people to get back to you. Save your information and money! You never know who they are possibly selling your information to either. read more

This company takes good care of our property. Property Management is difficult and communication is the key. They have improved their communication and are doing their best to meet our expectations. Thank you, read more

SLPM took over a month to decline my application. None of the people you call will know anything and you won't be able to speak directly to anyone who actually reviews your application read more

SLPM took over management of our HOA last year and it has been a wonderful experience. They are very detail oriented and have resolved all the issues and mistakes left behind from our previous management. Their staff is very responsive and easy to work with. Thank you SLPM! read more

SLPM's management has been great for our community. They are highly organized and efficient. They are very communicative and have solved any issues we have had. Highly recommended. read more

Does a crap job, ignores most requests (fixing wasps nest) and tells you to call the police when kids get into the building. Oh, and then quits dramatically and sends "positive feedback" from unnamed people and singles out people who leave bad yelp reviews. Who in their right mind falls for these kind of manipulative tactics, avoid these people at all costs. What is wrong with you Leanne, there's 2 dozen people celebrating we got rid of you and Grace and sharing horror stories among themselves. read more

They are illegally evicting us. Abraham Calderon and slpm are illegally evicting us.we have been sent a notice of unlawful detainer knowing our rent gets paid we have the proof you guys are refusing to accept our rent and are helping Abraham Calderon illegally evict us. read more

We have been a customer of this business for 8 years and their services are subpar to say the least. The management staff is not very focused on good customer service but rather doing the minimum and keeping their contracts going. They tend to be unprofessional and rude. Given that housing is such a vital and critical thing in a person's life you would think that a property management company is at minimum consciously aware of that. This company definitely leans on the management portion of their work, and they do it without any heart or compassion. It is, after all, a business but you still need to be professional and treat people with respect. I would suggest you keep looking for another company, but if you chose them just make sure you don't set high expectations for the quality of service. read more

Not very professional. Lack of communication is very poor took them 2 months to tell me that I was getting the apartment.

Just wanted to say thank you to Max for the beautiful maintenance job he completed today. Max has the required skills, experience and excellent attention to detail. The work was completed in a timely manner with minimum disruptions. Thanks for a great job! read more

SLPM is just about the worst property management option out there, and I'm speaking from a renters perspective, these people are unprofessional, unfriendly, I'm not on here because I'm bitter, my wife and I got approved for the property we were interested in no sweat, just like we did at the home we currently rent, personally I believe that Daniel is lazy and I'm completely unimpressed with his professionalism and his work ethic, I fully understand that he has a job to do and it's my opinion that his job is unique in the sense of his roll in the people's lives who come in need of his services, their very near future is greatly affected by his promptness, his willingness to communicate and most importantly his attitude. If I was a lesser person I would have definitely felt as if my wife and I were discriminated against and disrespected. I would never recommend using SLPM. Unsatisfied un-consumer. read more

This place is very unprofessional Lisa Emmrich she's in applications doesn't return any calls neither does Steve and he's the manager they are very unprofessional the only person that helps in that office is the girl at the front desk she is very helpful I wouldn't recommend this property management to anyone. They do not communicate well at all and then when you go to the office the other ladies there are very rude and unprofessional as well. read more

I applied for a rental property with SLPM and was turned away. I don't owe anything in collection, I don't any landlord(s), I have over a 630 credit score, I pay my bills on time. I was told the only reason I was denied a rental property is because they only rent to people with a 670 credit score however, they accept Section 8. The lady would not return any of my emails, phone calls and the office was closed to speak with someone in person. Don't try and rent from them they are racist, they asked for my identification and then refused speaking with me until I called all of the sealed and she made up a reason not to rent to me. read more

Ruben s below loves the job Grace does as a manager. As she protects him as a board member from the action that should be taken. And she loves him for approving the use of her husband and possible relatives to do shoddy work with no consequences. She does not do her job properly as a manager. She has a personality conflicts and conflict of interest. She only shows up her for a meeting. Extra meets she charges alot She has never performed a walk through. I believe she does not fairly process bids and gives advantage to her husband and possibly family members she-hires. We pay way to much money for a company that does not have a portal or have a separate firm to handle the finances. Another conflict of interest. They move the money in and out so much it makes you dizzy . The savings of the board was frivolously spent $400+ to change a light bulb. She did not save this community. It was saved by the prior board. Not the current board, they are taking us to a familiar place of doom and special assessment. read more

My daughter was desperately looking for an apartment before her lease was up, so she can be closer to school. SLPM decieved us. They collected $35.00 x 3 credit check fees and recieved all required information After two weeks, i saw they still had showings of the apt over the weekend. Thats when it dawned on me, collect as many fees as possible I called Shanna and she stated that she was going to give our information to her boss so that her boss could present it to the owner. Another week has passed on not one word from SLPM. Luckily my daughter found an apt. And was approved in 24 hours. It does not take 3 weeks to approve you. Unfair business practices. Caution: stay away from SLPM. They will steal your money and leave you homeless. read more

To be clear, I was approved for the apartment nearly an entire month after we initially applied. I did not post a negative review because we were denied. If SLPM claims all the negative reviews are from people who were turned away that is an out and out fallacy. Of course we had already been approved for a different apartment within 24hours of applying and accepted. I received several emails after being approved by SLPM (a month later) asking if we were still interested. Um, I think not? The bottom line is this company is clearly a hack and they are unable to admit their utter lack of efficiency and professionalism. You don't have over 60 one star reviews for nothing. Do not waste your time and money with these people. read more

I bought my condo in 2016 we had several HOA management before SLPM. To me, it seems like all HOA wanted to do was pay our bills once.SLPM took over managing our community. I really saw a big difference first of all our HOA was in severe financial problems, we had major sewage damage, hot water, issues, severe dry rot to balconies. I was really beginning to regret purchasing my condo. Grace from SLPM and her team of contractors and vendors did a lot of work to get this place looking the way it does now never did we have to do a special assessment. Grace negotiated with contractors and vendors to give us credit for the work so we can make payments with zero interest. Just recently Grace negotiated with state roofing to do our roof and give us $45,000 of credit with zero interest. We would have never gotten our roof done if it wasn't for Grace and Keith from state roofing working together for the community if your HOA is infinancial Hardship I really recommend SLPM and Grace. Even if your community is not in financial hardship, Grace is a great person to get projects done fast and with reasonable pricing. read more

This business is not here to help you at all.. they will collect as much money for credit check. They will not update you no matter how many times you reach out to them. They know people are obviously looking to move and we understand they want to rent to the best tenants possible but Slpm need to be compassionate and let applicants know whether or not they're renting to them in a timely basis. Bad service and just wants to collect and collect money for credit check. Don't use this company read more

Scam scam scam scam These people stole my money for an application and never responded to me and also 2 of my friends. We all have perfect credit and very good jobs. No response ever from SLPM. Instead of responding, they actually blocked our numbers and never answered our calls.... these people steal application money and probably never even tell the property owners that anyone even applied.... SPLM is running a pure scam. read more

Had nearly the same experience to Emily G below. I submitted an application for this SAME unit that Emily G. wrote about (1425 Lakeside Drive #202) without looking this company up on Yelp first. I lost $35 basically for not doing basic research. I almost lost an additional $35 for my boyfriend's application, but we didn't submit it. This is fraud. Stay away from this company. read more

I own two units in the a HOA that SLPM is managing, Grace Hall is a terrible person. Completely not helpful, and does not respond to emails. SLPM sends out billing statement so late that by the time we get the mail and send a check right away they charge a late fee. and when we pre paid a month they still charged a late fee because they applied both checks to only one unit. I have no idea how a company could still be in business with so many bad reviews. I don't normally waste time writing a negative review because its not worth my time I Just don't go back to that place. There is jails and tow yards with better reviews than this company and for good reason. read more

This company is a scam. They post rentals so that people will apply online & pay $35 application fee per applicant. But they never actually check your credit or call your references. And they never contact you back. They have a receptionist who will tell you that it takes them 7-10 business days to process applications, which is absolutely absurd! In all my experiences I've never heard of rental applications taking any longer than 1 week, even when landlords don't have the resources of a whole management company to rely on. My advice to apartment seekers: Always call the number on the listing and talk to a real person. You can tell when someone isn't telling the truth or is exaggerating just to get your money. Especially during the COVID crisis, management companies think they can just cancel all open houses & tours without offering any other way of viewing a property and still get tons of paying applicants. Unless you can see the property yourself and talk to a real person who will tell you the truth, IT IS A SCAM. read more

This is the absolute worst living situation I have EVER been in. SLPM Property Management do not deserve to be property managers considering they could care less about any of their tenants. BUGS, ROACHES, BROKEN APPLIANCES, MOLD, NOT RESPONSIVE, ETC. I have had A SERIES of issues in my apartment since I first moved in April of 2020 and they have either not been fixed, or had a crappy fixing job. My first issue on the first week of moving in was that I was given a broken closet, so I was unable to hang any of my clothes because my closet bar wasn't even attached to the walls. It took them FOUR MONTHS to finally listen to my multiple email & phone complaints and come in. They then tried to argue with me and say that I simple should hang less clothes (I had no clothes hanging and it was still broken). It wasn't until the fifth month that they came and unhappily fixed the closet bar (a job that took 5 min). NEXT, my stove is almost 30 years old, one of the tops don't work, the oven releases harmful gas smells, and the stove has caught on fire twice (I have cleaned the stove/oven multiple times so it's not me) but they refuse to replace the stove. Next, I HAVE HAD BUGS AND ROACHES IN MY APARTMENT MAINLH THE KITCHEN FOR ALMOST 5-6 MONTHS NOW AND THEY DONT CARE!!!! I've sent so many emails and called so many times but I have had NO responses whatsoever. Clearly they do not do their job if they can't even respond to calls/emails??? I clean every day, never leave food out, and at this point rarely cook because there are roaches crawling everywhere and I feel so gross. They had a "pest company" come once finally, on New Year's Eve 2020, and ordered us to leave the premises so they can spray the kitchen, but gave no instructions or time to prep or cover our foods/dishes and this was without warning!! I was just happy that the roaches would be gone, BUT I WAS WRONG. It is now January 9th,2021 and I have seen SOOO MANY BUGS AND ROACHES AND NOW THEYRE IN MY LIVING ROOM & BEDROOM!!! I have called and emailed and STILL NO RESPONSE. These people DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR RESIDENTS HEALTH AND SAFETY! I have a cockroach allergy so this is severe to me. I could go on and on about all the problems I've experienced with no fixes or even no responses from these SLUM LORDS. I hope this management company shuts down. read more

Horrible service. I applied for a rental property early this year and kept asking for updates, no one ever got back to me. I called Lisa E. and emailed her so many times with that being said I would never want to live in a property where there is lack of communication and professionalism. Good luck to whoever applies or lives in these properties. Waste of time. Zero stars is not an option so I had to go with one, what a joke of a company. read more

I was later reached out too and was told by a manager I would receive a refund of my application fee.

If you or your HOA are looking for property manager, VOID SLPM Property management, worst EVER! Grace Hall is like the worst property manager I have ever seen, not friendly nor professional! When she sent out email, she doesn't really read homeowner's reply, not resolving anything, wasting everyone's time. If you don't know how to communicate on email, please have other people on the team to do so! read more
