I have worked closely with Sam from Starlight Rental and she has been an immense help through our lease term there and through the early termination process (unfortunately had to move closer to work - leading to early termination). Any and all requests for fixes or checks were done in a timely matter and always was followed through to make sure things were taken care of. Even through the stressful early termination process, Sam and the team was always polite, professional and supportive. Always reachable via text, day and night - which we greatly appreciated. Honestly, best property management group I have had the pleasure to work with. Thank you for all for the services provided through the past few months. read more

Had an awesome experience working with Zac at Starlight Rentals. He made the whole process seamless and stressfree. Very upfront, super friendly, and overall just great to deal with!!! read more

Very unresponsive. For a management company you would think they would be interested in communicating.

Starlight was amazing at communicating and coordinating the process with the rental. Really great experience overall!

I've had a great experience with both my landlord and property manager. They've been responsive, professional, and easy to work with from the very beginning. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed quickly, and communication was always clear and respectful. The property is well‑maintained, and they truly care about keeping the home and the community in good condition. It's rare to find management that is both attentive and genuinely considerate, but they've consistently shown that they value their tenants. I appreciate their reliability and the peace of mind that comes with knowing things will be handled the right way. I would confidently recommend them to anyone looking for a well‑managed, comfortable place to live. read more

SLPM (Starlight Property Management) puts out listings, you fill out their Google Form, you get an automated text message saying..."The tour will be this coming weeke...." and then nothing. Completely ghosted. No phone numbers, no email addresses, no nothing. Renter beware. read more

Working with Ai Yu and his team has been a seamless experience. They made the move in and move out process fairly easy and hands off, they took care a lot of the stuff you normally wouldn't think of. I appreciate their timely responses and quick turnaround. Couldn't have made my residence in SD any better. I highly recommend! read more

Ai is an incredibly professional and responsive property manager. I enjoyed our time together and would recommend him and his staff highly.

Had a great experience renting with Ai Yu and Starlight. Did not impose unreasonable rent increases when our lease was over, addressed issues and repairs, and overall just very easy to talk to. This was a much better renting situation than our last. read more

Very difficult/unprofessional experience with Bella. She was non-responsive to multiple texts and phone calls after meeting in person at the property and initiating the application process which required $40/adult to initiate. Her excuse for not responding to calls or texts over several days was that she did not have Wifi. Her lack of communication continued until I reached out again one week later and she then informed me that the property was no longer available. I have worked with several agents/brokers (as many of us have) and she either is new to this industry, incompetent, or completely apathetic. Unfortunately, this was a complete waste of time, money, and effort for my family. It was also impossible to find anyone else to contact at Starlight Rental throughout the process. Hopefully, this was a one-off situation, and I hope someone can retrain Bella on effective communication and professionalism. read more

Ai and his team were very responsive and helpful to any questions or issues that arose. The online portal was easy to use for payment and maintenance requests. Everything was good, no complaints read more

Yu Ai is the best property manager I never has ;since I live on his property management,I never have any headaches at all ; any small or major issues on that living property;when i called him ;he will fix it for you less than 24 hours even in the weekend. So I highly recommend all the landlords, if you have any properties for rent hire him to manage your property; he is a professional and responsible person, good communication skills and good public elations with the teantance ,I am highly recommend him to manage your properties. read more

The team was responsive and quick to act from the start when I was looking to rent until the end of my lease. Yu and his team made sure that any questions or needs I had were taken care of. read more

Starlight Property Managment did a fantastic job and exceeded all my expectations. I especially like that their dedication to finding suitable tenants was remarkable. Ai Yu displayed a profound understanding of the market and an unparalleled commitment to customer satisfaction. He was always available to address any concerns or inquiries promptly, and he provided numerous valuable insights and guidance along the way. Thank you! read more

Terrible experience with the rental property, constant repairs and delays in repairs.

Garbage response from this place. Screening process is terrible I can't imagine how bad being a tenant would be if that is how poor the rental process is. Passed on this house due to the PM not having their shit together. read more

Starlight acted as the broker and lease management agent for the property. This company provided a lease that modified a standard CA lease to disable the renter to have any recourse for holding the property manager or owner liable for any repairs. To add salt to the wound the renter had to repair and clean the house. Essentially the renter takes over a house and the owner and Starlight are there to collect the rent payment. There are other options in the market that are fair, use those. read more

My family and I were tenants in a rental property managed by Yu and the Starlight team. From the very beginning of our experience, Yu delivered a highly responsive and professional experience. The home was in excellent condition when we moved in. Like with any property, issues will arise from time to time. As they did, Yu was always prompt and fair in his response. Beyond Yu's own professionalism and ability to manage the priorities of tenants and property owner, he has assembled a highly skilled and courteous team for repairs and fixes. I'd highly recommend Yu as a property manager and would work with him if I were renting out property. For tenants, he will make for a better renting experience from start to finish. Had we not purchased a home, I would have been happy to stay in the rental in part because of the dynamic with Yu and his team. read more

Great company. Ai was the best my family has had in the longest time. Very quick at responding, very respectful and responsible. Could not ask for a better experience. read more

I had a pleasure of working with Ai Yu while my daughter resided in one of Starlight rental properties. Ai was always responsive to our requests, and ensured issues were resolved in a timely manner. Thanks Ai. My daughter definitely enjoyed being a tenant at the property. read more

I inquired about a unit and set up an appoint to view the condo. It was about 10 other people there to see it. After wards, I contacted Yu about doing an application because I liked it. He then proceeds to tell me that they decided to raise the rent $100 than what it was listed at when we all went to see it. I'm assuming due to interest. This just shows me they could care less about the tenants and more about how much money they can swindle from people. read more

My experience has been very positive with Yu and the Starlight Property Management team. The Property I was renting transitioned to Yu during my lease and that was the best thing that could have happened. I really enjoyed the direct contact and availability that was afforded to me by the team. I now consider Yu a friend and will be reaching out to him first for my next rental. Thank you Starlight. read more

Ai Yu and Starlight PM are great! We recently had a problem with our gas oven that would not turn off. this was a major safety issue and Ai Yu was really helpful in fixing the problem by replacing the whole oven range with a brand new one in a very short time. The most important thing in these types of emergency and safety situations is the speedy communication between all parties and Ai Yu was very efficient in this matter by solving the problem asap to the satisfaction of everyone. I thank him for his hands on type of approach and the seriousness and professionalism that he demonstrated to us. I highly recommend his services to any landlord and renters as well. Thank you very much Ai Yu. read more

Very unresponsive and had to follow up many times just to receive insufficient answers. For example, would not send bedroom measurements or answer questions regarding AC. Poor communication read more

Yu is a great property manager. He was always willing to work with us to resolve issues and is always quite responsive. We have nothing but praises for how attentive and amenable he is. read more

Ai Yu is a fantastic agent to work with when finding our next rental. He diligently worked on letting us know about up coming rentals and continued to check in on us even after we've moved in. Highly recommended! read more

My husband and I recently started renting a property through Starlight Property Management. The entire process was seamless, which was extremely appreciative during this crazy rental market. All of the steps were clearly outlined and communication was excellent. We are both in customer service and Yu has made such an impression on us. He has been very easy to get ahold of, and quick to respond to any questions. Moving in, we had a couple of items that needed to be addressed and Yu was on it immediately. It really takes the hassle out of renting when you have someone who is so reliable, helpful and communicative like Yu! read more

In selecting a property manager to help us with our rental property, I reviewed over a dozen San Diego property mgt firms and called up a handful to hear them speak at length at how their services are great, internet based, cost effective....... blah, blah, blah. However, Ai Yu of Starlight Prop Management was the only one who spent significant time going over strategy and procedures for best preparing and listing my property for tenant visits. He spent no time in touting how great he or his company was, just how his formula/philosophy for property mgt was developed over years and hundreds of clients. In short, Ai Yu is NOT some internet based company located hundreds of miles away, but rather a San Diego firm that knows the pulse of the various rental markets and has a large local database of contractors and service providers. He delivered spectacularly and I'd recommend everyone at least give him a call to compare to other prop management firms. A well deserved five stars. read more

We had the most wonderful experience using Starlight PM! Ai, Yu was incredibly helpful, communication was clear and he kept us updated throughout the application and leasing process so we knew what was happening every step of the way. Once we moved in, he has always been quick to reply and we feel confident as renters that we are in good hands. For anyone seeking this service, we highly recommend Starlight as they care not only for the property owners, but the residents as well. If I could give more stars I would. read more

Yu is a great property manager who helped me a lot with the renting process, from taking photos of the unit, the listing, the open house, to the lease signing and the day-to-day management. He is very knowledgeable about the rental business and guided me through every step, making it very easy for me. I highly recommend Yu as a property manager. read more

Dogshit property management company. I rented from them for 2 years and in those two years they raised our rent twice yet refused to fix anything in the apartment. 2 years and they mowed our complex once. It took them 6 months to respond to my maintenance request and that was answered only after I refused to pay rent until they came and fixed the sink. Instead of cleaning the mold from under the sink they just painted over it. Hands down dogshit company read more

We recently rented a condo from this property management and Yu did a great job. He was very helpful throughout the whole process and did make our move-in process easy and smooth during this pandemic period. The unit itself is not in gold plated condition but Yu has access to every kind of repair person needed and he does response with a quick turnover, even during the holiday seasons and it's always easy to communicate with him, He did also took a throughout inspection before we moved in and noted all the existing condition before we moved in - All repairs needed were made/completed within a week and the maintenance people have been nothing short of professional or polite. We will definitely be recommending this property management to other's. read more

Ai, Yu is an excellent property manager. He was very responsive during the leasing process and got us into our rental fast. He is always quick to respond and got a plumbing issue sorted out very quickly. I would recommend Ai and Starlight Property Management to tenants and landlords alike. read more

Ai Yu and his team were a fantastic property management company to work with. Very responsive, and timely in requests for services. Yu communicated clearly about the deposit, rent and what's expected on both sides. Great person to be your property manager as a tenant. read more

I have been both a Landord and tennant over the past 25 years. Starlight (and Ai specifically) took over the property management of the townhome i was renting in La Jolla for 3 years. The previous property managers were nothing short of horendous and absent. In the time Starlight took over, all my concerns and request for aid was takencare of swifltly, professionally, fairly and in a friendly way every single time. They were understanding and gave awesome service to both me and the Landlord. For me, the service they provided was nothing short of perfect as a tennant. If you are a Landlord looking for a management company, look no further. Thank you so much Ai and Team for being professional, friendly and awesome. Antonio read more

I know yu ai and Jessica since 2018, they are very professional responsible, I am highly recommended of them , if you have any property service need help. read more

Yu is very professional and knowledgeable. The process of our lease contact, move-in and maintenances,with him have been very smooth.

Ai Yu and his team were very responsive and understanding in all aspects of our term with them. They communicated well and take care of issues when they arise. A great agency to work with. read more

Ai Yu is an excellent property manager whom I had a pleasure of knowing him for 2 years when my son rented a condo he manages. He is always quick to respond to your requests & handles issues in a professional manner. I wish I have a rental property so that I can use his service! Highly recommend him! read more

It's been a month since I quoted several property management companies I chose Starlight eventually because their prompt response and patience for my questions. I am a picky person who would like to ask a lot of questions, not to mention this could be a long term commitment. I was a little bit skeptical at the beginning as they don't have too many reviews and it's hard to find a lot information online. I decided to give a try based on the response and reasonable quote. To my pleasant surprise they helped me to find the tenant within 2 weeks and the tenant has good credit score and stable job (not easy during COVID time). I don't want to get the tenant blindly only to deal with eviction later. The contract signing process is like a breeze and it is better than I expected. Now the property is being managed by them and I can relax and collect rent from now on. I write this review just to show a little appreciation and I believe a company like Starlight goes a long way because of their professionalism and prompt response to requests. read more
