RJW Properties Inc.

This was the first company I rented with in San Diego and I’d definitely stay here again. I stayed at their property on 5^th avenue for close to 8 months. I moved out because I got married and a studio was too small. My neighbors were not loud or rude. The building was quiet, safe and peaceful. Although most people do not converse with you (like any other apartment), no-​one made me feel unsafe.
Hector was my landlord and was always friendly and helpful. He sincerely does his best to accommodate everyone and resolve issues if any arise. The wait time, if any, to resolve an issue is a reasonable amount of time.
While living there I made sure not to make holes or anything in the apartment. When I moved out (last week) I cleaned the apartment and received my full deposit back.
I hope most renting companies in SD have people like Hector and are like RJW.

Not helpful at all. If you ever consider renting with this company, get copies of all of your documents or they will screw you over. They send bogus notices constantly and if you ever have a concern in your unit you’ll have to «wait in line» to be helped, if they bother helping… OH! And there are absolutely no PIT BULLS allowed on their lease. Their insurance company won’t allow it.

Katie the manager is a psycho c… nt. their properties PAINT OVER MOLD. And they WILL raise your rent after your first 6 mo. lease is over and go month to month for no reason. Our rent went up even after our laundromat was locked up and inaccessible for months with a pad lock because crack heads are always breaking in. Katie is the most unprofessional sorry excuse for a human being. Theres roaches, moths, and nasty bugs everywhere even if youre super clean. If you tell them you need to talk to them about maintenance, they wont move a muscle to reach you. The only time you hear from them is if the manager wants to scream at you for no reason. The people you end up living next to are junkies and extremely nosy. Dont waste youre time. You wont get your deposit back.

Do not rent from rjw properties. Everything that was said by other reviewers is true. Living here and dealing with these liars has been an absolute nightmare. Katie is unprofessional and does not care about anything. Property manager lies about doing things. The place is a zoo. People are loud. Homeless everywhere. Trash everywhere. Stomping late into the night. People arguing late nights. I can go on forever. Do not live here and do not rent from rjw properties. I move in 4 days and I can not wait to leave this place. Do not make the same mistake.

RJW properties used to be a good place to actually call home but now at the swift ave apartments there is a new manager, Raquel, that lies and causes a lot of problems, she’s psycho. Katy at RJW properties doesn’t have a heart or soul. They gave a pregnant woman a 60 day notice when she’s due in 60 days. What type of place are they running? Stay away from this property management company cause they will always find ways of screwing with you.

Very thankful to the management that rented to us! They made it accommodating since we needed to move quickly when I was pregnant. They are open with communication and very timely with maintenance results. I have been a tenant for about 3 years and even the new managers were just as personable and professional. Its not easy finding a place in the hub of North Park, but they have lots of properties, so they are well-​versed in that kind of community and its needs.

By far the worst place I’ve ever had the displeasure to live in. The people they hire to «manage» their properties are the most unprofessional people I’ve ever dealt with. The place is a jungle, people come and go even if it’s supposed to be a «gated» property. Potheads, criminals and random junkies will be your neighbors. I’m leaving in exactly 30 days and simply cannot wait to get the hell out of there.

I’m not rating this place it the most Horrible place I every lived Katie is just rude and Obnoxious, she is the worst excuse of a properties manager every my husband and I is living in one of there properties and he’s in th military can’t walk in his uniform to far but they are refusing to have him a parking spot on the other hand there a car in one of the spot that’s dont every move and clearly doesn’t work instead of removing the car it just sits there I refuse to go threw this lease with out a parking spot plus when we moved in it was lotS of roaches and bugs in the apart after sign the contract four days later we went to the stir and bought bug spray the apartment isn’t even worth all the hassle just don’t want him to get in trouble with his job but Katie decided to want to hell at me on the phone and cruse at me really need to know what I can do to get out of this lease. Don’t ever rent from these pple it horrible be patient and find something better

I am only giving this place a 1, because zero is not an option. I agree with everything that everyone has said here… walk, don’t run from this property management company. Katie is the biggest b_​_​_​_​I have every come accross. I have a friend who lives in one of their apartments and she is extremely sick (on deaths door). They served her a 3 day notice knowing she was in the hospital, and to help her out, I went and paid her rent for her, so she would not get evicted. They wouldn’t waive the late charge even though they posted a 3 day notice on someones door who was not there to get it! Now, 3 days later, they call to say they just noticed that I wrote a check and did not give them a cashiers check… they will not accept a personal check, no exceptions what so ever — once the rent is late. Hello… it is late because she is still in the hospital!!! I called the lovely Katiie and she was so extremely rude on the phone, telling me to get to the point because she has a million things to do… She said that is the policy and I had better go get a cashiers check if I don’t want the eviction process to be started. If they would have cashed the check when I paid it 3 days ago, they would have already had their money! They are no soul, no compassion for someone who is dying???
Do not rent from these people!!! Their are so many apartments out there. They don’t respond to maintenance issues, there are roaches everywhere and they treat people as less than human. Stay Away!!!

I’m only giving this place one star, because 0 isn’t an option. I have to agree with everything that Gary C. said about Katie. She is the most unprofessional person I have ever dealt with. She’s rude, crude, and just plain evil. She’s the worst property manager I have ever had.
She hired some «handymen» to come fix a leak in my bathroom and they just pretty much destroyed my personal property and my whole bathroom. Not only that, but they sexually harassed me in the process and when I told Katie about this, she just ignored me. I asked for my personal property to be replaced and have my bathroom cleaned from the mess they made and in return she handed me a non renewal of lease. This was totally illegal of her, but I am actually happy that it happened, because it got me the hell out of there and I’m living somewhere much better. I suggest to not rent from this company.

After interacting with RJW Properties, I was impressed with their quality of customer interactions and their professionals that they have on staff. Katie, an associate who I had most of my interactions with, was very helpful and easy to work with. Overall, I would rate the experience extremely positive and RJW Properties will continue to receive my business in the future.
