Joe Carta Realty

It was a great experience working with Joe Carta Realty. Ashli in particular went above and to secure a property for my client. She was extremely proactive and always available to meet our needs.

I have been a tenant of Joe Carta for 18 months now. From the beginning, Joe was on point with my ideal living space desires and took me directly to where I needed to be. I love my apartment and its location. I lack for nothing and was totally surprised to find a brand new ceiling fan installed, when I had only wished there was one. My continuing interactions with him are always pleasant and informative. I value him being part of our little hamlet here in Kensington. If I decide to buy here I will definitely use his services due to his extensive knowledge of real estate, negotiating expertise, experience, and knowledge of the entire San Diego area. He has a «no nonsense» appeal to him, which makes doing business with him easy. But, when you just want to say hello he devotes as much time as he can to you. He is busy and for good reason. He is extremely professional and that should not be confused with anything else. He is an extremely confident and competent property manager. Joe Carta and his business have come to earn 5 stars from me due to being highly consistent in meeting all of my basic customer service needs and for being a great neighbor on the corner.

We moved into our new house two months ago and I’m very happy with the management company. The application process was quick and painless. They have been very polite, easy to contact, and made our move extremely easy. I would recommend them to my friends and family.

I had a great experience with Joe Carta Realty as they managed the apartment complex I lived in. They have always been courteous, professional and helpful. After I purchased my own property and gave my 30 day notice to vacate my apartment, they offered a «pre– move out inspection» to enusure I had a clear understanding of their expectation prior to my final move out inspection. They were on time to both my pre-​without inspection as well as my moveout inspection and return my security deposit in a timely manner. No complaints here.

The absolute worst «property management» company. They never fix anything. They send a painter for all maintenance related issues from electrical to the hot water heater. Every time the painter goes into the laundry room where the a water heater is located and turns off the water heater in winter he leaves it off and my husband has to go and turn it on so my 5 year old can take a warm bath. They are not property managers they are SLUMLORDS. You would be smart to take your business elsewhere. PS there is a plumbing issue at least once a month so there are times when there is a water shut off notice at least once a month. If the plumbing issue is considered tenant caused in their eyes they say the tenant has to pay for the plumbing. It is a 13unit building but no on-​site manager so we are left to fend for ourselves if there is an after hours problem. This place has gone down hill since I first moved in here in 2005. Do not rent from these scam artists and slumlords. They continue to raise the rent but do not do any maintenance or renovations to make it more appealing. They practically use chewing gum to hold things together. There is also a rodent and pest problem that they cannot get rid of. Disgusting. I’m saving up to move the hell out of here.

Hi Joe Carta Realty,
I am really happy I will be working with this company again. They have been extremely professional in renting out my unit and getting good tenants. And they are very upfront about things and the employees are always the best. I am very happy to have this company as my property managers and would recommend them to other clients.
Sincerely,
Bhagamshi

Saw a house listed by this realtor, Ashlee was the agent showing the property and she was a joke! I could not believe how unprofessional and impersonal she was. Hardly greeted my husband and I, she unlocked the door of the property, and stayed outside playing on her phone the entire time. She knew nothing about the house, and when my husband was talking to her she was uninterested and started playing on her Apple Watch mid convo. We liked the house but was completely turned off by the customer service or lack of it.
