Crown Management

Great management company. Patrick and Wendy do a great job. The online maintenance system is easy to use, easy to see where things are at in the process, and issues get dealt with quickly. The building I lived in was in great shape and was well maintained. They do a great ob of renovating and modernizing units between tenants. The finishes are very nice and easy to clean and maintain. The move out process was easy. I lived in my place for 3 years. The only reason I left was I got a great opportunity to move into a great house with friends. Would definitely rent from again.

By far the best property management company in San Diego! I have been a tenant with Crown Management for almost 4 years now and could not be happier! Wendy and Patrick are truly great at what they do, very organized and helpful whenever an issue arises. I recently moved from one of their units to another, Wendy aided in making the move extremely easy and was always available to answer any questions I had. All units are beautifully updated and they also keep any outdoor/​communal areas looking pristine! Not to mention I am one of the lucky ones and live in one of their dog friendly complexes which is near to impossible to find in Pacific Beach. I hope to stay with Crown Management in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable property management company in SD!

Wendy and Patrick with Crown Management are nothing short of consummate professionals. Anyone who is searching for a rental, especially in San Diego, understands how competitive and frustrating the process can be. Wendy and Patrick made the process an enjoyable experience for me. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and provide services with the highest level of integrity. I recommend Crown Management to any owner who wants their property treated as if it were their own. They thoroughly screen prospective tenants and act in the best interest of their properties and clients. They are the real deal!

The best property management company in San Diego, hands down! I would recommend Crown Management to anyone and everyone. They have beautiful, updated, competitively priced apartments by the beach– what more could you ask for? I have only had positive experiences with them. Whatever you need is taken care of within 24 hours. They are understanding and actually care about each tenants happiness. It’s hard to find property management company’s that put the tenants first, and they most certainly do. Thank you for everything Wendy and Patrick!

Great prop managers. Very responsive when they need to be.

I was a tenant of crown management for two years. They are the best management company out there! Most companies treat their tenants awful, are unresponsive, and disorganized. Our house was in such good shape and if we did ever have an issue, it was addressed right away. Wendy and Patrick are so helpful and answered any questions right away. When I need to find a new place, Wendy will be the first person I call. One day when I own a rental property, Wendy will be managing it. I would recommend them to anyone.

San Diego properties are filled with highly disorganized, non-​committal, and barely responsive property managers/​landlords. Crown Management is a welcomed GEM in this sea of disarray! :)
Whereas it is more typical for tenants to write reviews at the end of their lease, I’m writing this at the beginning, because I’ve been so impressed by Wendy and Patrick (the rock-​star property managers):
My brother and I moved from Oregon and were looking for a clean, quiet 2 bdr close to the beach (we millennials want it all don’t we? :)) But, because of our busy work schedules, we had no time to come to SD for a visit. We were so impressed by Wendy’s responsiveness (to our multiple emails) and online reviews that we rented our place blind (having never stepped foot in it)!
We love our new place, and all maintenance issues that have arose were resolved immediately…
I look forward to writing another review towards the end of my lease, but I can assure you it will be at least this positive…
Go with Crown Management you will not regret it, 5 stars!!!

Turned in my keys today after 3 years of renting from Crown Management. They are truly the best at what they do! I’m moving out of state and was sad to leave my apartment. Wendy is exceptionally attentive to her tenants’ needs, knows each of us by name and always made me feel like I was part of big Crown Management family. I love how up to date this company is, from easy online rent payments to fun giveaways on Instagram. I got an email from Wendy today, thanking me and other tenants who moved out for doing an exceptional job cleaning our units. Such a kind gesture! Thank you Wendy and Patrick!

The best landlords I’ve ever had (and I’ve had MANY terrible ones). Wendy and Patrick, are amazing, kind, prompt to reply, and extremely tentative. This family-​owned boutique property management firm, is incredible. From their easy, two-​step, two-​second online payment system, to their maintenance portal, the actual quality and design of their properties, to the «welcome home» champagne on move-​in day, to their social media initiatives — Crown Property knows what’s up and is a great business. On the instances I requested maintenance, the issue was fixed in less than 24 hours! Their maintenance team is also amazing, nice, and trustworthy (I’ve left my key for several of their contractors). I will continue to recommend Crown to all my friends and family!

I have lived at Crown Management properties for the past two years. Nothing but great things to say.
The properties are always clean, well maintained, and high quality neighbors. Anytime I had an issue or question, I was able to get a hold of Wendy no problem.
Highly recommend working with crown management to find a great apartment in San Diego!

I am extremely grateful to have found this property management company. I can’t even begin to tell you how pleased I was with everything and the rental. I honestly wish I could find more management properties like this one. I have absolutely no complaints. Wendy and Patrick are absolutely wonderful. If I ever move back to San Diego, fingers crossed, I won’t look for any other management company! They are genuine and they truly care.

I love Crown Management! I have been renting from them for a few years and they are by far the nicest and most responsive managers I’ve dealt with. I was originally referred to Crown by another happy tenant and decided to go with them after reading their positive reviews on Unilocal.I’m so happy I did! They have always made things easy– from the application process to signing my lease to handling my maintenance requests. I totally understand why their units are so popular.
They helped me find my perfect apartment. I had almost given up on finding a nice place in North PB in my price range. But they actually had a lot of great options. I had very specific things I was looking for– I wanted wood floors, a dishwasher, laundry onsite and an updated interior. I also wanted a deck or a balcony. And it had to be walking distance to the beach. Most importantly, it had to be OK for a cat. Well, not only did I find an apartment with all of those things but it even had new appliances– a total bonus for me as I love to cook. My apartment is awesome.
Working with Crown has really been a pleasure. Wendy is great about getting back to me when I have a question, even returning my texts on weekends. I’ve never had a manager do that. I love that I can do everything online from paying my rent to requesting a new window screen.
There are so many impersonal management companies out there. I feel really lucky I found friendly managers like Crown.

Loved living in a crown management managed property. I was at 3599 mission blvd in one of the studios there. They updated it perfectly to make it very practical despite the small size. A neighbors smoke detectors batteries died while he was on vacation and was beeping every few seconds continually. After a quick call to Wendy after hours, she had the maintenance man fix the problem in under an hour. Wendy was always a major help and wasn’t bothered by any inquiries I came up with. Great property, great management.

I could not recommend Crown Management any more and they are absolutely deserving of 5 stars. Their properties are all beautiful, well-​maintained and Wendy and Patrick truly care about their tenants. If you are looking for apartments in the San Diego area, start your search with Crown Management. You will thank me later.

I would highly recommend Crown Management! Wendy and Patrick are amazing people! Such a great company to work with. Very attentive and quick to respond to any of our requests!

Wendy and Patrick were amazingly helpful with my move from Denver to San Diego. I was fortunate enough to find Crown Management through Unilocal and secure an apartment 2 months before move in, pretty unheard of. They provided pictures of what the unit will look like after remodeling and I can confirm the unit is beautiful. Great landlords who are very responsive to every requests, even after I moved in. They also have a keen sense of what needs to be remodeled as my unit has a much nicer bathroom and better appliances than anywhere I’ve lived at.

I had a chance over the weekend to visit my old building on Turquoise in PB. I think it looks even better than when I lived there. They’ve added a new area in the front with mini palm trees and flowers. Also in the courtyard area are nice tables with umbrellas.
I still have several friends living there who rented there because I referred them. No surprise that these folks have so many 5 star reviews. They deserve them.

I recently renewed my lease with Crown Management and couldn’t be happier. When you meet Patrick during your initial tour of the property, you’re immediately welcomed by his friendly and inviting personality. Patrick was very upfront with everything and made sure I was completely aware of all the details of the unit.
I was fortunate enough to get the property tour the same day their contractor was finalizing renovation plans for my unit, so Patrick even allowed me to provide some design input (this sold me on Crown before I even signed the lease!). Within a few hours of the tour, Wendy was in contact finalizing the lease process. A day or two later I was in their office signing the lease. It was so easy!
I’ve been in this unit for over a year now and the few times I’ve made a maintenance request the issues have been personally addressed by Wendy and/​or Patrick and taken care of within a couple days. I can only recall once where they requested to come into the unit (property appraisal) and afterward Wendy wrote an email to me thanking me for allowing them into my home and complimenting me on my furnishings – fantastic service!
All in all, the care that Wendy and Patrick provide to their tenants and their properties is second to none. We have all had to deal with slimy, socially awkward, creepy property managers in the past and thank the stars, this is not the case with Crown Management. I can confidently say that I will stay with Crown as long as I am a renter (have you seen the pictures of their properties?!).
5 stars. Great job, Crown!

I’ve been renting from Crown Management for the past year and recently moved into another property of theirs. The entire staff has always been incredibly warm, responsive and professional. I only had one maintenance issue (old water heater) in the past year of renting with them and they were quick as to resolve my issue. They had a plumber out there at once and the water heater replaced in the same day. They replaced the items I had used to clean up and even took a few days rent off for my inconvenience. (I’ve been renting for almost 10 years and not once have I received that sort of compensation.)
I knew I wanted to relocate to a new area in San Diego a few months before my lease was up and notified Wendy. Without even having to reference anything, she knew my budget, needs and was able to list potential availability’s). I was specific in mentioning a particular complex and she called me the day a unit opened up for me. Upon moving day, Wendy was flexible and worked with my work schedule (which can be crazy at times). Any question or request along the way, she’s answered and then some.
The level of customer service I’ve received with Crown Management far surpasses any of which I’ve received with any other property management company. They understand that even though it’s a rental to them, it’s a home to you. It’s nice to have that type of faith with a property management company. Oh, and all their properties are nicely updated… Definite plus and not always easy to find in the San Diego area!

Crown Management really seems to care about Unilocal and the opinions of their tenants. On several occasions Wendy has reached out to me via phone and email to address concerns noted in my initial Crown review and to provide updates. In fact, just a few months after my first review substantial bike racks were installed at my apartment complex, and more recently Wendy let me know that new tenants needn’t worry about turning on their power since Crown has switched over to a continuous service arrangement for their properties.
I’ve been meaning to update my Crown review, especially since the owners of my complex have recently taken over management of the property.
There’s only one aspect of living at my current address that I’d consider a fairly consistent headache, and that’s the almost constant work that’s being done around the complex and everything that comes along with the work – my reserved parking space being used, talking and screaming and music and hammering and sawing, water shut-​offs on relatively short notice or no notice at all, people stopping by to inspect my unit or to complete work while I’m in the middle of a meeting because the contractor didn’t show up during the previously communicated time range. You get the idea. Really, it’s a blessing and a curse, because on one hand work is being done and the complex maintained, but on the other hand I don’t want the plumber’s truck leaving oil puddles on my cherished off-​street paved parking space, you know? There’s no doubt I’m a tougher critic than most when it comes to the contractors because I work from home and hear it all.
I’m not sure it’s possible for a landlord of an apartment complex to be perfect (i.e., worthy of 5 stars), but, for me, Crown Management does a good job. Our next planned step is to buy a home in the Northeast, but should my husband and I rent again in San Diego, we’d probably look for places in North Pacific Beach or La Jolla managed by Crown.
