Dolan & Knight Property Management

I rented a 3 bed 2 bath apartment in culver city, walking distance from downtown. The apartment was newly renovated and Anthony replaced our stove with a brand new stove when I was there! Anytime we had a question or issue (which was once or twice), Anthony always responded in a quick manner and was sure to answer any questions right away. I highly recommend renting from Dolan and Knight properties and wish they had more options for me to rent from for the future!

Slow to respond on issues they don’t find important (non urgent but aesthetic issues), I found that it took over 3 weeks to respond to graffiti on the building and then perhaps the repair person who painted it left behind their small containers of paint which were summarily abused by the author of the graffiti that was covered up. So now we have spilled paint on the sidewalk and stairs, so much trash I can’t keep up with myself, and dog poop.
It’s not my building, so these issues are slowly becoming something I no longer care about because if the owner/​manager doesn’t care, why should we? But if I were the building’s owner, I’d give a crap about how my building looks. But having experienced this entire street, in just a matter of months, this building will fit in perfectly with all the others that need a fix here, a trim there and the whole «dilapidated’ look will be perfectly matched!
I still think Dolan and Knight is a great management company for other reasons, but I guess no company will ever live up to my standards in Koreatown.

I never had a management company that utilized a third party for rent payment, but I love the convenience of paying rent online and having access to automatic payments taken from my account. I worked with Nicole when I had credit information stolen off another site. She was really friendly, fast and professional. She walked me thru the site and pointed out to me that my payments came straight out of my bank account and that didn’t have to worry about changing debit card information. I am spoiled by this service and will look for management companies that employ a company like Paylease to take care of rental payments!

My boyfriend and I lived in their building for 2 years. The times that we called them, they were fast at «helping» us out and returned our calls, and were friendly. I have no qualms with them personally, but the buildings that they «manage.»
The building itself though, was a complete embarrassment. The place is cheap rent (, so I can hear you now, «Well of course it’s going to be gross.»
…really though? It HAS to be gross? It was fucking disgusting.
1262 S. Maryland Ave in Glendale was disgusting. I’m fine with the small space, and the refrigerator that’s falling apart, the rotting (and I’m pretty sure that’s mold) bathroom, and carpet that probably has been there since the 70’s…but what I couldn’t put up with… the fucking bugs. No… I’m not talking a lil’ guy that you look at and just go, «ew, bug»…no. These were cockroaches with wings shitting and laying eggs and you go, «HOLY FUCK THAT’S A HORSE WITH WINGS!» (I wish it was pegasus.)
Jokes aside, this place was pretty fucking disgusting. We did the best we could to keep them out. We lifted everything from the ground, we put pesticides and bug traps every where, and we plugged up as many holes as we could. We would arrive home every evening to a war zone. It was gross.
What broke the camels back? We got a visit from Mickey and I’m telling you I did everything to try and catch that little fucker. 4 days later, we moved out. Fuck it. We couldn’t quite afford it at the time, but we said to hell with that damn building and the disgusting condition they gave it to us.
I’m so glad we’re out of there. We are at a new place now and wooooow… the building management damn near laid out a red carpet for us and talk about taking care of your tenants!
You wanna move to our old place? Have fun, and good luck with it. Seriously.
p. s. Just because something is broken and you just PAINT over it, doesn’t mean it’s FIXED.

Dolan and Knight have been managing my property now for almost two years. They are awesome.
They respond quickly to my calls and emails and always get the job done quickly, whatever that job may be.
The staff is very friendly and I must say it is nice to feel you have someone «on your side» for a change.
In fact I think so highly of them that I just referred them to a friend of mine who owns several properties in the Los Angeles area.

I’ve lived at their property on Gower St. for several years. They have always responded quickly when I have needed them for anything. Great managers.

This review is absolutely true. My unit was robbed; I printed flyers telling of the robbery and distributed them to neighbors in the interest of their safety. The building manager came to my door with a flyer and scolded me, saying I was not allowed to do that. I was later threatened with eviction which was then withdrawn for unknown reasons. I found the process of dealing with the person at the main Dolan and Knight office a bullying experience.
In the following weeks, more units were broken into. In some cases, during the robbery, car keys stolen, and cars stolen from the garages in the back.
At one point I spoke with a person who was considering renting an apartment in the building. I asked if she was told of the robberies. She said she asked the manager if there had been crimes in the building and she was told there was not.

they only get one star because there is no option for ZERO stars. i lived in a property they manage in pasadena on orange grove blvd. HORRIBLE. when i moved in, there was no oven, and the fridge was broken. plus, they had not cleaned up anything. they allowed the tenants to run a muck, including piling up their unwanted furniture in the limited parking lot in the back. when i finally was able to move to a normal apartment in pasadena, they took half of my deposit for «cleaning» fees. mold constantly grew in my room/​bathroom, the furnace had a gas leak so bad when i move in socal gas turned the entire complex off until they (dolan and knight) fixed it, which was about 3 – 4 days later. hot water issues, sewage coming from the sink. the worst place i’ve ever had to endure. ever.

I just recently started renting a place from Dolan & Knight Property Management, and I have to say they have far exceeded my expectations. They made renting my apartment very simple, accommodating me as an out-​of-​state student. They helped me fill out the application and assisted me with all the details. They have been very prompt with repairs, I think everything has been done the very next day. They are all very polite and helpful, it has been an excellent experience.

The property is beautifully maintained and I love where I live. However many tenants allege that Dolan & Knight failed to alert us during a crime wave at our location.
Dolan & Knight charge fees for paying rent online.

I’ve always been treated very well by Dolan and Knight and I lived in one of their buildings for years. They are available around the clock and have always returned my calls promptly, so I can’t imagine them ignoring a robbery report! Dolan and Knight is a family run business that cares about their tenants — I highly recommend this company for all of your property management needs!
