Designation Property Management: Reviews
Fantastic experience: We rented a gorgeous home in Los Feliz from DPM for 6 years and had a great experience. Maintenance requests were handled promptly through their online portal and property manager Neena was a delight to correspond with when needed. A pleasant and professional rental relationship is key to a longer lease and DPM checked all the boxes for us. Thanks Neena!
Best wishes to you and Matt on the next chapter!
Fantastic experience: I have been using Designation Property Management for several years now and I have nothing but positive things to say about Neena and the company. Everything is very organized and detail-oriented. I really appreciate everything she does and recommend her for any property owner looking for a reliable manager.
Thanks Eric.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful property management company. Trustworthy team. Would highly recommend
Thanks Jen!
Fantastic experience: I have had the benefit of working with Neena and her staff for the better part of ten years now. They have been excellent to work with, are always responsive to my questions, and have provided timely and accurate reports on my account. They are great!
Thanks Tony!
Fantastic experience: Olivia and team have been fantastic. Answering my concerns promptly and in a friendly manner. I feel supported at this property.
Thanks Jenn.
Fantastic experience: I’ve had a very positive experience working with Neena. As a homeowner renting out my property, I really appreciate her professionalism, responsiveness, and clear communication throughout the process. Neena successfully helped me rent out my house and made everything feel smooth and well-managed. Neena has been easy to work with, quick to answer questions, and proactive in keeping me informed. It’s reassuring to know my property is being handled by someone who is organized and reliable. I would definitely recommend her to other property owners looking for dependable management services.
Thanks Tiffany!
Fantastic experience: As a property owner and a client of Designation Property Management, I can tell you they are very reliable source for all my property management needs. They are prompt to responding to my calls and trouble shooting various tenant issues. I can always get someone on the phone or a call back in a timely manner. As an owner of an older building, you are in a constant state of maintenance, and I rely on a variety of contractors to keep up with the repairs. Designation provides me peace of mind with hiring highly skilled and professional contractors for every job. They are also a great resource for marketing and renting out any of your vacancies. They are a one stop shop and I can’t recommend them enough.
Thanks Joseph we appreciate your trust.
Fantastic experience: I rented a home managed by Designation Property Management for two years and had an excellent experience. Ben made both the move-in and move-out process smooth and stress-free. Neena was quick to answer any questions. And maintenance requests were handled promptly. Overall, the team was professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend them.
Thanks Catherine and best wishes on the next chapter!
Fantastic experience: Neena and the team at Designation Property Management have been helping us manage our properties for years. She is reliable, trustworthy, and follows-up! It has been a pleasure to work with this group and we highly recommend them.
Thanks Jennie!
Fantastic experience: This is an updated review after doing business with DPM for over two years. My initial impression that “the best thing I did after deciding to put my property on the rental market was to call DPM” has been consistently 100 percent correct. Neena and her staff have made the rental ownership process a breeze, while the recent renewal of our initial tenant is a testimony that they are happy too. I value DPM’s Responsiveness, Communications, and the data on the Management Portal for both efficiency and professionalism. If you are new to being a rental property owner, or experienced but have a frustrating relationship with your Property Manager, give Neena a call. I’m confident you will be glad you did.
Thanks James it's been a pleasure working with you.
Fantastic experience: We’ve been working with Neena of Designation Property Management for nearly a year, and she's been an exceptional partner throughout. From the initial property evaluation to finding great tenants, she made the entire process seamless and stress-free. While we were living abroad, Neena managed everything with professionalism and care, handling any property issues swiftly and keeping us informed as needed. Upon our return, she also ensured a smooth and efficient lease renewal process. Neena is seasoned, trustworthy, and highly reliable—we’ve felt confident in her hands every step of the way. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable property management partner.
Thanks Jessica glad we could give you peace of mind while living abroad.
Fantastic experience: We have been only been DPM residents for less than a year but Neena has already established herself as a reliable resource. She's helped several times with key maintenance requests - is always responsive and quick to take action. She reliably follows through and we know we can count on her to help us resolve any issue that comes up.
Thanks Diana!
Fantastic experience: Outstanding property manager. They strike the right balance between protecting the homeowner’s investment and ensuring tenants are treated fairly and professionally—something that is not easy to achieve, but they do it exceptionally well. Their approach is highly systems-driven, with clear processes, strong communication, and consistent follow-through. You can tell there is a thoughtful structure behind everything they do, which creates confidence and predictability for both owners and tenants. They are also a true authority on the Pasadena rental market—knowledgeable, strategic, and well-connected. If you’re looking for a property manager who is professional, organized, and genuinely understands both sides of the rental equation, I would highly recommend them.
Thanks Lisa for your confidence in our services.
Fantastic experience: Management is great, very responsive and responsible. Joe and Ernie are lovely and do great work and of course our home is our home, we love it!
Thanks Tim!
Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of meeting Neena at a recent property management conference and was extremely impressed by her professionalism, vision, and the level of service she is committed to providing her clients. Her business plan and operational systems were clearly very well thought out, and it was evident that she genuinely cares about delivering outstanding results for property owners and tenants alike. It’s always inspiring to meet professionals who are elevating the standards of the property management industry. Neena is clearly one of them.
Thanks Martin. Wishing you continued success.
Fantastic experience: I've relied on DPM's services for over 3 years now. My point person throughout this time has been Neena. She is exceedingly organized, timely, and her management system makes reading cashflows, or any other document for that matter, transparent and intuitive. DPM is not corporate, and this is what I appreciate most about them —they can do everything a big company can do with the advantage of tailoring to their clients. For me, it's a win, and I haven't looked back.
Thanks for your trust Ilan.
Fantastic experience: Since moving into my apartment a month ago, Neena and Olivia have been so communicative and seamless to work with! If I have any questions or need anything fixed, Olivia has been so prompt in getting back to me and sending over a handyman. Along with loving my new place, I've felt so taken care of by the Designation Property Management team!
Appreciate the compliments Ashley.
Fantastic experience: Just moved in 2 weeks ago and the Designation Property management team have been so responsive, helpful and kind. Olivia has gone so far above and beyond for us. I've lived in LA for 25 years and can recognize something special when I find it :) super excited for this next chapter
Thanks Kosta!
Fantastic experience: Olivia and all of Designation Property Management has made finding and moving into my new home such a painless and pleasant process. It’s rare to have a property manager as responsive, attentive, and kind as Olivia has been. I absolutely love my home and would recommend Designation Property Management to anyone looking to find a new spot! THANK YOU DPM!!!
Thanks Lily glad the move went smoothly!
Fantastic experience: Top-tier management service. Neena was extremely responsive throughout the entire process. I couldn't be more grateful to have found them. If you're looking for the best rental management, then you've found what you're after. 5/5!
Thanks, Dane, glad we could help.
Fantastic experience: Great Experience with Neena at Designation Property Management! Professional and dedicated to excellence. Highly recommend!
Thanks Ben!
Fantastic experience: If you're looking for management, this is a great place to start.
Thanks!
Fantastic experience: Top-notch management. They found great tenants quickly and handle everything efficiently. It’s been a stress-free experience working with the team.
Thanks Lien!
Fantastic experience: Incredibly responsive, very friendly. Olivia makes me feel like the only tenant in her portfolio. Thank you for helping me get settled into my beautiful home!!
Thanks Justin! Glad Olivia is taking good care of you.
Fantastic experience: As tenants, we have always felt so well taken care of by the team at Designation Property Management, especially Ben. Not only are maintenance requests resolved quickly, but they really take the time to consider and advocate for larger projects with the homeowners to make this property the best that it can be. Communication is clear, friendly, and personal. They take our feedback on vendors seriously. Really, everything about our experience with Ben and the team has felt above and beyond our expectations.
Thanks Mary!
Fantastic experience: High-level property management with attention to detail and integrity. It’s clear this company operates with experience, systems, and heart.
Thanks Tatiana!
Fantastic experience: We are just starting to work with Neena on managing our property, but everything we have experienced thus far, has been best in class. Within days of getting us on-boarded, she already signed our first tenant. She has been communicative and professional throughout the process, highly recommend.
Thanks Joseph!
Fantastic experience: They are the best management team in the world. Everyone is so kind, professional, and quick to respond. They go above and beyond to help, even if you don’t live there anymore. I really appreciate them so much!
Thanks Sy and best wishes to you and your family.
Fantastic experience: Designation Property Management (DPM) provided us with top-notch service while we vacated our home for 15 months to travel and visit family. Neena and Olivia at DPM handled every aspect of the rental of our home: finding tenants, inspecting and overseeing the preparation of our property, processing required documentation, arranging repairs as necessary, and providing detailed statements tracking every dollar received and disbursed. We recommend DPM enthusiastically and without hesitation, and we would be delighted to contract with them again under similar circumstances. Both Neena and Olivia are knowledgeable and thorough. They have a stable of excellent service professionals that enabled them to handle issues that came up as seamlessly as possible, never bothering us with minor issues. We had one major issue with our heat-pump system that did necessitate interaction, and they worked patiently and efficiently with both us and the tenants to get the system repaired. In most cases, the repairs and maintenance that they arranged were higher quality and less costly than if we had undertaken them ourselves. Overall, we are very grateful that Neena and Olivia made it possible for us to travel carefree, with our home in even better shape when we returned than when we left.
Thanks Jim for trusting your home to our care. Glad we could give you peace of mind during your travels.
Fantastic experience: As a fairly new landlord, I have just used DPM services for the first time and I had a great experience. Neena's expertise made the process easy and expedited, always listening to my needs and providing valuable guidance. I highly recommend Designation Property Management
Many thanks Carolina.
Fantastic experience: It's been great working with Neena and team! They're so friendly and quick to respond. They truly raise the bar on professionalism and customer service.
Thanks Jovie!
Fantastic experience: We have dealt with Designation Property, and specifically Neena for over 4 years now, renting out our family's home in Glendale, and most of it was done REMOTELY as we're out of state. They have completely taken care of all our property management needs, including collecting rent, dealing with tenants, rent increase, COVID challenges, repairs including a flooding due to the recent storms in California. Rent's always on time, communication is excellent, and they're all super easy to deal with! I cannot recommend this company enough. 5/5 STAR!!! Update 2025: Just to add to my review above, old tenants left and house and landscaping needed some repairs, their contractor Joe, came out to help with the project and they seriously did an amazing job... great work, at a very fair price, with full transparency (invoice for all materials, etc) while I was mostly remote during the renovations. I highly recommend Designation Property for any reno work you may have. You won't be disappointed!
Thanks Alex. Appreciate you entrusting the care of your family's home to Designation!
Fantastic experience: Neena and the team at Designation Property Management were incredibly helpful and attentive, not just during the rental process and while I was searching for a new place, but throughout the entire term of the lease. Neena was always responsive, professional, and genuinely cared about making things easy and stress-free. Highly recommend!
Thanks Sandro! Best wishes on the next chapter.
Fantastic experience: Neena and her team are top notch - I've lived in dozens of apartments over the years and Designation is by far the best management company I've had. Very attentive to fix issues via their handy Web portal, same-day replies, and truly excellent, courteous work from her network of handy service professionals - special shoutout to Joe, Ernie, and Olivia who have been out to my apartment several times and do great, reliable work. Thanks all!
Thanks Laura!
Fantastic experience: DPM does a wonderful job making sure I have everything I need AND want to make me feel like my apartment is a home. They’re excellent with annual safety checks, very responsive, and are always willing to work with me. My apartment was newly renovated when I moved in, so they take initiative to keep the place looking super nice. They even put in a screen door to let in natural light and more airflow when I requested it. Love that it’s women-owned and everyone is so kind, respectful and reasonable!
Thanks Malena!
Fantastic experience: Really great service, thank you!
Thanks Jed.
Fantastic experience: Quick responsiveness and consistently reliable. I would highly recommend.
Thanks Jean
Fantastic experience: One of those management that are good in handling request of their tenants. Whenever they have a service request, they make sure everything is being monitored and taken care of. We are one of their vendor and It’s always a pleasure working with them specially Olivia, always easy to reach, respectful, and a joy to talk to every time. Kudos for working at best ! keep it up!
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: we have a lot of apartment building serviced for Designation Property Mgt specially their appliances and kudos to Olivia for having a great customer service.
Thanks Mae!
Fantastic experience: One of the best management companies I’ve ever come across. You typically hear about horror stories about the lack of care from a management company when you’re a tenant but not here. From Ben, Neena, Olivia and the rest of the team each person I’ve dealt with listen to the requests made and immediately act upon it to ensure tenants are comfortable and secure within their living quarters. I’ve had experiences with other management companies that won’t care to follow up with requests or issues but rather blame individuals or make them live with the inconvenience and just collect their monthly rent. Great to work but even better people!!
Thanks Nick!
Fantastic experience: The team here has always been helpful and professional. They even drove across town to replace a chirping smoke alarm that was driving our dog crazy while we were away!
Thanks Kyle! Best wishes on the next chapter.
Fantastic experience: They managed my very first apartment building when I first moved out with a friend. Neena was super helpful, attentive, and professional. Full circle moment to my first apartment on my own, and they’ve continued to be just as helpful, attentive, kind, and professional! Olivia has been great and very proactive throughout the entire process from viewing, application, move in, and post move in! Truly the best property management company I’ve worked with in LA.
Thanks Monica!
Fantastic experience: We rented our home for nearly four years, and Neena and the Designation Property Management team made the experience feel seamless and stress-free. They were consistently prompt, professional, and genuinely cared about the property and our comfort—often going above and beyond, like attentive landlords. Anytime something needed fixing or attention, they were on it right away. We felt well taken care of the entire time and are truly grateful for their support. Highly recommnded!
Thanks Daphne and our best wishes on the next chapter for your family.
Fantastic experience: Neena and her team have been a fantastic group taking care of my fourplex. Everything done with their help has been reasonable and well executed. I feel like I have a very reliable management company taking care of my home. All issues and repairs were brought to my attention quickly and handled. No complaints here!
Thanks Jp!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a tenant of a home managed by Designation for about four years now. By far one of my favorite places I’ve lived at! Neena and the team are extremely communicative and helpful with any issues that arise. Joe is a lifesaver and if there’s any big or small appliance issue he comes immediately and solves it very quickly. I have never lived somewhere where they prioritize their tenants needs so highly and are also such lovely people. Their website is incredibly easy to navigate to pay rent or anything else you may need. Would highly recommend to anyone who would like an stress-free rental experience. Thanks guys!
Thanks Rachel!
Fantastic experience: Olivia and team were great to work with for our apartment rental in LA. Great PM company!
Thanks John. Best wishes on the next chapter.
Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about Neena, Olivia, and their team. I have rented from a property they manage for a few years now. There has never been a time where I felt like I didn’t get a quick reply to a question or a solution to a problem. If you’re a future tenant, know you’ll be in good hands. If you’re looking for a property manager, this is your team.
Thanks Bernard!
Fantastic experience: We rented a home in Altadena through DPM and they were wonderful, always responsive and helpful. Sadly, that property burned down in the Eaton Fire but Olivia was so extremely helpful as we were experiencing that loss. She communicated with the homeowner and with us about the status of the home and when it was confirmed a total loss quickly got us out deposit and month’s rent back so we could have access to those funds immediately. Not only that but they sent us several open listings in area, one of which was a perfect fit for us and we were able to transfer and update our old paperwork and quickly secure a new lease. We moved into our new home on February 1st! We are so grateful that Olivia and Neena worked with us through such a terrible and challenging time and helped us to find a new, safe home so quickly. They also helped us get all the materials to the insurance company quickly. As stories of price gouging and predatory landlords came out in the weeks following the Eaton fire we know that we’ve have been especially lucky to have such kind, honest and helpful property managers on our side. I cannot recommend them enough. Hopefully you won’t experience natural disasters with the home you rent through DPM, but if you do, know you will be taken care of.
Thanks Susan, glad we could help your family find another home.
Fantastic experience: I have worked with Designation Property Management for several years now. I own "Chimney Sweep Bill". Probably the oldest Fireplace and chimney cleaning service in all of Southern California. Neena and Olivia are easy to work with. They are very conscientious of their customers property and the tenants that stay in them. Work orders are very detailed and payment for work is always prompt. It is a pleasure to work with this property management company and I have worked with several over my 47 years in business and they are top notch. William Saltzman AKA Chimney Sweep Bill
Thanks Bill! We think you're top notch too. Thanks for taking care of our properties.
Fantastic experience: Neena and Olivia managing our property for quite long time. I really appreciate quick reply to any service/repair requested. Thanks for being on top of everything.
Thanks Alex.
Fantastic experience: When it came time to hire Designation Property Management to manage the family home, I realized I had made the best choice possible. Neena and her staff have done nothing but deliver top notch service. They’re communicative, professional, courteous, and quick to resolve any issues that may arise. They were also instrumental in recommending both legal and construction services, including great exterior/interior work by Joe Marino. I highly recommend them as your future property management representatives.
Thanks Gary for the kudos. Enjoyed meeting your folks and getting the family home ready for the next tenants.
Fantastic experience: Working with Neena these past 5 years has been an absolute pleasure. She is organized, responsive and has taking great care of the property. This year, the property required some updating and repair work. She took care of the details and I am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Designation Property Management.
Thanks Kate, we enjoy taking care of your distinctive home.
Fantastic experience: So delighted with my experience working with Designation Property Management. From initially touring the property to handing off the keys, my transition has been seamless and enjoyable. They are incredibly communicative and make sure all maintenance requests are addressed quickly and efficiently. If you're considering renting a property managed by DPM, you'll be in good hands!
Thanks Taylor and welcome to your new home!
Fantastic experience: Best property management company I’ve encountered in my 6 years living in LA! Super helpful & responsive during move-in which made it a breeze, tenant portal makes paying rent so easy & they were incredibly quick to address a small leak in my unit, sending someone to repair within 24 hours of submitting a notice. Highly recommend!
Thanks Elliott! Glad Olivia and team took care of you.
Fantastic experience: My family and I moved into a property managed by Designation Property Management in September. Neena and Ben have been amazing throughout the application and rental process! We have usually rented from corporate/large apartment rental businesses in the past, and this is the most responsive and effective management company we have had the pleasure of renting from. They usually respond to requests for maintenance within hours and somehow have technicians and plumbers reach out the same day for maintenance scheduling. Everything (uploading documents, application, rental agreement, etc.) is done through a secure and easy-to-use online portal. We cannot recommend them highly enough!
Thanks Courtney, welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: Olivia is the manager of this location and she is very people and service oriented
Thanks Curtis!
Fantastic experience: Joe and his team are so helpful and we highly recommend to take care of all your property management needs.
Thanks Lauren glad Joe took care of you.
Fantastic experience: We cannot express enough how impressed we are with the swift and seamless transaction we experienced with Designation Property Management. Olivia and Neena were absolutely wonderful to work with. They were on top of everything, answered all of our questions, and catered to our needs with the apartment. Their professionalism and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Also, Joe and Ernie, in particular, went above and beyond to attend to our needs, even on a weekend. Their polite and knowledgeable approach made the entire process so easy and stress-free. Not only did they repositioned the AC units, but they also made adjustments for proper room ventilation without any hassle. We are so grateful for their dedication and exceptional service. Thank you for making our move-in experience a truly delightful one.
Thanks Ruth Ann! Glad we were able to take care of you and your family.
Fantastic experience: Working with Ben and Neena at DPM was so great. Responsive and super helpful - we had a great year in one of the properties they managed. Would recommend!
Thanks Ian! Best wishes to everyone in your new place.
Fantastic experience: Neena helped us get our house ready and it needed a lot of work! She saved us a lot of time and found the right people to take care of the job. Thanks!
Appreciate the compliment Daisy and glad we could find you great tenants!
Fantastic experience: We just moved in to a property managed by Designation Property Management and we couldn't be happier. We had a few things go wrong and they were on top of everything from the beginning. Just 100% helpful, responsive, and nice during a challenging time. I highly recommend them.
Thanks and welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: It's been a joy to work with Neena as we got our home ready for rental. She is a clear communicator, efficient, dependable and highly knowledgeable. We were lucky to get a host of recommendations for various repair and maintenance folks from Neena. Without these solid recommendations, it would have taken us many months longer to get our property ready. One particular recommendation stands out -- Neena's handimen Joe Marino and his co-worker Ernie can't be beat. They really go the extra mile to do superb work and figure out tricky problems. Plus, they are great company!! It was truly like an injection of moral support to have Joe working on projects as I got the house ready. Thank you, Neena, Joe and Ernie! You are lifesavers!
Thanks Gail! We all enjoyed getting your distinctive home ready for rent.
Fantastic experience: One of the best management companies! They go above and beyond for tenants and response so quickly. So thankful for Neena, Joe and Ernie. They are so kind and sweet and were able to get all our remolding that needed to be done so efficiently. Thank you so much for all your hard work. Amazing team!
Glad the team took care of you Seda.
Fantastic experience: I've been living in a DPM home for over two years now, and I got to say, I feel lucky. While I'm constantly hearing coworkers complain about their sketchy landlords, I live in a home managed by truly good and kind people. Neena as well as Ben Keller have been so amazing whenever we've run into a problem in our home -- I am constantly shocked by the fast response and solutions they provide. We recently had an influx of bad luck in terms of appliances (no fault of DPMs, of course -- just the natural wear and tear of things that just happened to all happen at one), and Neena, Olivia, and Ben, were super fast to respond and either repair or replace the items. In a world full of disreputable and greedy landlords, Designation Property Management is a wonderful outlier, and I am constantly grateful I randomly stumbled across one of their properties and made it my home.
Thanks Audra for sharing your experience!
Fantastic experience: The application process was remarkably smooth compared to others I've encountered. Olivia promptly addressed any questions I had, putting me at ease throughout the whole process. Joe and Ernie, who handle maintenance, are truly exceptional—kind, professional, and consistently resolve any requests within 24 hours.
Thanks, Faith and welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: Everyone that works here has been so amazing and responsive, especially Joe who does all the maintenance! Anything we need fixed he’s very quick and professional, truly he’s a gem!
Thanks Erica! Welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: Neena is so efficient and helpful getting my application done for my new little house. I got approved and was able to move in within two weeks! The handover experience was very smooth, and the online management system they use is very efficient and easy to use. Neena also takes care of any of my house issues super quickly, usually they'd send someone over within a day, which is quite impressive! I love my new house and my back yard. The gardeners, the handyman Joe, everyone is very helpful and kind. I've been living here for four months now, and so far it has been a great experience!
Glad to hear everyone took care of you Moxie. Welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: We recently moved into a property managed by DPM and everyone we've met has been incredibly polite and professional. Special shoutout to Joe, Ernie, and Ben who have made the process a breeze from move in to maintenance and beyond.
Thanks Zack, glad everyone took care of you. Welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: Fair and friendly! Lived in a Designation Property Management apartment for the last 3 years and it was the best renter experience I've had. Neena and Olivia are always on top of issues and are quick to resolve them. Their maintenance team of Joe and Ernie are absolutely fantastic. Extremely efficient and friendly, they were always around to fix any issues I might have had, big or small. Can't recommend DPM enough!
Thanks Adam glad the team took care of you.
Fantastic experience: Great group of guys that came by to fix a leaking pipe above my kitchen sink. Joe the handyman was very responsive and showed up on Christmas to repair the pipe until the plumbers were able to get here after the holiday. Cleaned up after themselves and just nice people!
Thanks Simon glad they were able to help.
Fantastic experience: Olivia, is very professional, courteous, and very good at his job. It was great working with him. I highly recommend Olivia
Thanks Ara.
Fantastic experience: Olivia came today and fixed 3 things that were messed up. She was so friendly. It made it go by in a flash. I won't have to be paying $650 which some locksmith tried to charge me. Great worker.......
Thanks Lamont, glad Olivia was able to help you.
Fantastic experience: I've lived in a Designation Property Management building for the past five years and cannot speak highly enough of my time here. It is a small team of incredibly dedicated, hardworking, and friendly folk. All of our maintenance requests were addressed in a timely manner, and I was incredibly satisfied with the attention to each one. While I am moving out due to other life factors I will be sad to leave this group behind and I only hope the team at my next apartment can meet the standard these fine folks have set.
We'll miss you Danny and wish you all the best on your new place.
Fantastic experience: My wife and I worked with Neena to rent out our place in Pasadena. She handled everything from beginning to end including listings, showings etc, and our new tenant just moved in today! We'd recommend her to anyone looking for a property manager.
Thanks Brian, happy to get the vacancy filled for you.
Fantastic experience: Neena is fantastic. Thorough, communicative, efficient, helpful in every way. I couldn't recommend her more!
Thanks Sam, glad we could get your vacancy filled quickly.
Fantastic experience: Joe is hands down the best handyman I’ve ever had while renting in LA for over 12 years. Fast, helpful - a true pleasure
Thanks Erin and welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: Smart, efficient, without flaws. 10/10
Thanks Nate.
Fantastic experience: Easy breezy working with Neena. Immediate response time and quick fixes. And Thank You Joe! You're the best!
Thanks Amanda!
Fantastic experience: Neena and her crew are always available and very friendly. If a work order is filed, work is usually handled quickly and efficiently. Any questions and concerns are always answered. We appreciate the work they do for us.
Thanks Blanca and thanks for the care you take of your home.
Fantastic experience: 5 stars all around. What a knowledgable, professional, personable team that exudes efficiency, transparency, simplicity (for an always complicated process), and charm. I had never heard of the group before, however I will recommend them highly to everyone I know. Shout out to Neena Dorigo who made my rental paperwork so easy, and BIG THANKS to Olivia Brink who made EVERYTHING else happen.
Thanks Aimee! Welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: It’s wonderful working with Neena. Always a smile and friendly attitude, and she goes above and beyond to take care of her tenants.
Thanks Ryan.
Positive experience: *** UPDATE: Two staffers (agent+maintenance) have made a pattern of showing up at the property to inspect, talk, or do maintenance without any notice, just showing up at my door. After filing a complaint the issue seems to be fixed. They aren't perfect, but I believe they strive to be. *** Love my new home and management! Neena has been such a pleasure to work with, easy going and direct. Joe and Ernie have been responsive to getting the house set up just right for me ⚒️ 5 stars and no complaints
Thanks Diego and welcome to L.A.
We are reviewing notice protocols with all team members.
Fantastic experience: Designation Property Management is excellent at finding a tenant and doing the proper screening to make sure everything went smooth from the beginning throughout the rental process. They were efficient at getting repairs done if needed. Sent monthly statements on time and cleaned the unit and had it looking just like the day it went on the rental market. I can’t recommend Neena and her team high enough.
Thanks Lisa. Wishing you the best on the next chapter.
Fantastic experience: Update: After almost two years in my apartment managed by Designation Property Management, I simply have to say they continue to uphold and exceed their quality of service. Neena and Olivia are beyond amazing! Personable, responsive and totally on top of things if they happen to arise. They also contract with great family owned businesses staffed by friendly and knowledgeable technicians. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for them and everything they do. Many continued thanks to Designation Property Management! 10/10/2021 As a new renter, I have been nothing but impressed and so grateful for Designation Property Management! Neena Dorigo has been a pleasure to work with during the entire rental process; responsive, direct, and kind. Something I was definitely not encountering during my recent rental search. Then, upon meeting one of her associates, Joe, who stopped by for a brief introduction and some last minute things regarding the unit, I knew this was not your average property management. Joe was funny, helpful, informative, and did a quality job, all in a timely manner. Thank you so much DPM!
Many thanks Pilar!
Welcome to your new home Pilar!
Fantastic experience: Joe Marino, the handy man, immediately responded to my doorknob issue and fixed it within a few hours of the request. He even went above and beyond and looked at my other doorknob which apparently needed fixing.
Glad to hear you were taken care of quickly Stephanie.
Fantastic experience: We love our home, Neena and the property owner are fantastic managers. Not to mention, Joe & Ernie are always quick to stop by and are super helpful. Great team
Thanks Will glad to hear the team is taking care of you.
Fantastic experience: This has been the absolute best management company I have dealt with as a tenant. From touring the apartment, applying, and moving in - Olivia was extremely communicative and quick during the entire process. As soon as I moved in, Joe and Ernie came in the next day to perform some quick and small repairs. Joe is a funny guy, and extremely friendly as well. Highly recommend hiring this company as your property manager if you're searching for one!
Thanks Sami and welcome to your new home.
Fantastic experience: Designation property management are amazing. Neena has been the best property manager I've ever had. And the maintenance team, Joe and Earnie have been extremely great at fixing anything very promptly. I highly recommend them to anyone.
Thanks Cam.
Fantastic experience: Super responsive team. Happy to work with them
Thanks Brian.
Fantastic experience: Neena is the absolute best! It was my first time listing a property for rent, and Neena made the whole process a breeze. Looking forward to working with her for years to come.
Thanks Amanda it's a pleasure working with you.
Fantastic experience: This is our first experience with a property management company, but I can easily say that they raised the bar pretty high for whoever else we might have to deal with in the future. They've been taking care of us as tenants for almost two years now, and they're always replying to our queries on the day. Not only that, but Neena and her team are always happy to help and to find solutions for us as soon as possible. Her handymen Joe and Ernie are extraordinary, always on time, respectful and most of all, they get the work done! Thank you Neena and team!
Thanks Martin
Fantastic experience: The owner of the home I rent just switched to Designation Property Management and they have been wonderful to work with. Neena is very responsive and you can tell she really cares about the vendors she chooses and the quality of work completed. Most specifically Joe and Ernie were here to fix a couple of doors - they were quick, efficient and friendly and did a wonderful job! Would recommend this team 100%.
Thanks Whitney glad you were taken care of.
Fantastic experience: The move in process was very fast and efficient. All members of this establishment was very kind and looking out for my roommates and I's best interest. Joe, our handy man! He has been very kind and always interested in accommodating our little needs every now and then. The place is beautiful and welcoming. Closets could use just a tad bit more shelving options. Overall, a very welcoming community and lots of communication through our group chat we have between other tenants when a service is being done!
Thanks Samantha welcome to your new home!
Fantastic experience: I've lived in my rental unit in West Hollywood for 25 years now and have always been impressed with Neena and her team of contractors - specifically Joe Marino and Ernie as well. Recently there was water damage to the walls in the kitchen from leaking pipes (it's a 64 year old building). Neena's team had to replace much of the original Kitchen and worked with me to get Kitchen upgrades that I preferred instead of the minimum that they were required to do. The Kitchen came out great and I appreciate that it was upgraged to my liking and within my budget. I like the fact they will allow you to make improvements (with their approval) in the rental units. The contractors did a great job as well. Thanks Neena! :)
Thanks Rick!
Fantastic experience: We have had the pleasure of working with Neena and her team on my mothers condo in Glendale, CA. The condo is old (built in the 60's) and was in need of several repairs before we could get it rented to a quality tenant. I scoured the internet trying to find a reputable property management company. There are several options out there, but it is difficult to find a company with a reputation for being experienced, honest, trustworthy, and reliable. Neena and her team have literally checked ALL of the boxes. She really does take the time to get to know her clients situation, what their specific needs are, and how she can put her expertise to work for them. From day 1, she has been in constant communication with us, keeping us informed of project timelines, providing specific input on needed repairs, and managing the day-to-day communication with all of the contractors. She even took the time to add her own personal touches with some of the interior details in the house (which was very much needed)! Once the repairs were completed, she wasted no time in getting it listed and put on the market for rent and within days she had it rented to a quality tenant. We are very grateful to Neena and her team for such a positive experience. It is indeed a wonderful feeling knowing that my mother and her property are in good hands. I would very highly recommend Neena and her team at Designation Property Management!
Many thanks!
Fantastic experience: Neena is the absolute best property manager I have ever had. I trust her with my own investments as well all of my client's properties as well. She is extremely knowledgable and always very responsive!
Thanks Thomas!
Fantastic experience: Neena and Designation have been managing my rental property for 4 years now. She has found great tenants and both the house and tenants seem to be well cared for under her watch. We recently had a turnover and the house was in need of a remodel. Neena and her contractor Joe we extremely helpful in bringing in quality workmen to get the job done quickly and the house looks great. Many thanks for your capable support.
Thanks Scott.
Fantastic experience: Neena Dorigo is an absolutely stellar property manager. She's incredibly attentive, kind and FAST at responding. I've had a few normal issues over the course of my tenancy and she has always made me feel like I was in good safe hands. Everything has been dealt with promptly and with superb professionalism. I wish every rental property in LA was run by her! She's totally removed the headache and 'roll of the dice' of renting in this city. Could not recommend more!
Thanks Marielle.
Fantastic experience: Just wanted to update my review for anyone curious about long term rentals: Designation Management is great! You can truly see how much the owner cares about the building - quick service, very friendly and reliable work from vendors like Joe and Ernie. Thanks all!
Thanks Justin, glad Joe and Ernie took care of you.
Fantastic experience: I have rented many apartments/houses in various cities in my life—it has never been as easy or seamless of a process with Neena at Designation. From coordinating the viewing, meeting me for the showing, and making the application process quick and efficient, I can’t say enough good things about Neena! Joe is the handyman who coordinated with me for a few quick fixes as I moved in—he’s very friendly and easy to work with. I couldn’t believe how attentive he was to the place, as I’m used to property management companies not responding to you for weeks for simple repairs. This is not the case here—5/5 experience, happy to be renting from this company.
Thanks Mary and welcome to your new home.
