Northwest Pacific Property Management

Of all the units Northwest Pacific Property Management manages and all the tenants they work with only having a few unhappy folks is an incredible testament to their professionalism.
I now have rentals in 3 states and have worked with Pat at NW Pacific Property Mgnt for over 10 years. I wish I could find management firms as good as Pat’s in other states. But Pat has set the bar so high none of the others have reached it yet.
I used to manage my own rentals and have had to deal with unreasonable tenants, it takes patience, tact and even then some just go ballistic if they don’t get their own, unreasonable way. I’ve even had a couple of tenants tell me that they appreciate Pat’s attention to their needs, that’s something that hasn’t happened with any other management company I’ve used so far.
Pat has good vendor contacts and gets reasonable prices for necessary maintenance or repairs. Of course tenants want worn or damaged appliances replaced with top of the line Dacor appliances and equally landlords often want to try and repair old appliances well past their service life. Pat keeps it real, encouraging the replacement of old appliances that will cost more to patch up over time than what they are worth with good quality, reasonably priced replacements that offer some of the bells and whistles that tenants want, keeping both parties contented and the properties rented with happy tenants.
Happy tenants stay longer, so few vacancies, and a better ROI — THAT’S what a good property manager is really all about!
I would recommend Pat to either someone looking for a rental or someone with a property to rent without a second thought.

I have received the best service from Northwest Pacific Property Management that I have ever experienced as a landlord. They have taken superb care of my rental. My tenants are happy. They are true professionals.
Please give them a try!

My friend rented from them for about 7 months. She is hardly ever home and very quiet when she is. She got back from visiting her family to see an eviction notice. They told her they didn’t need to give her a reason, just like she doesn’t need to give a reason to move out. Why, WHY??? And a when she looked for a new place, they gave her a bad review. Haven’t experienced what they do on move out yet but can’t see anything good happening.

What is happening today in the rental market here in Salem? It’s become downright atrocious. I’ve never seen so much intimidation, horrible customer service, discrimination (outright and in your face) and corruptness.
It is in the renters best interest to start saving your money, working on your credit and find stability in order to buy a house. Renting just isn’t feasible anymore in this area. Property managers will scam you, neighbors are hell, drug deals, etc… apartments complexes, except for a few, just aren’t safe anymore.
I’m making that statement as a blanket accusation of all Salem management companies. I just don’t trust any of them.
Regarding NPPM, I did a walk through of two of their properties, both single level and either a cottage or duplex. Just not up to snuff in any way. Outdated, smelly and in bad neighborhoods. One of them backed up to a drug house. I had to bolt out of there quick.
