Pierman Property Management

if i could give zero stars i would. i couldnt have said it better myself than suzie and everyone else that sees these people’s true colors. never rent from them or use them as «managers» they’re not. joseph is a pussy and his so called wife is a fucking idiot

So far so good. Moved in the property in May. All issues we had were addressed in a timely fashion and taken care of. I would recommend them if you are seeking a rental.

I was shocked to see some of the negative reviews on here. Joseph has been managing my rental property since November 2014 and I’m very satisfied with his services. In fact, I’m thinking of renting out my home in San Francisco & wish I could find a clone of him to manage my property here too.
I had met Joseph after a bad experience with a previous rental management company (see my review on Grow Properties). In fact, the experience with the previous management company was so bad that I wanted to sell my home just so I didn’t have to deal with it anymore. Logically, I knew that it was financially wiser for me to hold on. Emotionally, I had divested myself from the rental property and wished it would just go away. So, by the time I met with Joseph, I was already distrustful of property managers and half wanting to sell. But he made me change my mind about property managers and here’s why:
1) He found renters quickly and rented my home out for 10% more than what my last manager initially charged the year before. A 10% increase in rent from last year AND he quickly filled my property? I’m sold!
2) He responds to issues quickly. My fence fell down and he had an estimator out within a week that quoted a very fair price for a replacement. We replaced the fence quickly and both my neighbor and I were happy. A neighbor complained about over-​watering of the yard leaking over to her property, I told Joseph, and he addressed the issue quickly (I think the water-​sprinklers were re-​programmed. I’m not sure but my neighbor didn’t complain again). A paid landscaper wasn’t mowing the lawn (they claimed they couldn’t access the yards to do it which was a load of baloney since there’s no gate around the front yard and neither the front or back yard was getting mowed), I told Joseph and he suggested an arrangement where I lowered the rent in return for the tenants taking over lawn service. The agreement worked out best for both of us. I stopped using my paid landscaper and gave my tenant a $ 50 discount. The tenant saved money (happy for them!) and my I did too (happy for me!)! And guess what, he didn’t charge me extra for any of these issues that he addressed which was amazing since most property managers would have at least charged for re-​negotiating a mowing agreement or labor costs for addressing the sprinkler system issue.
3) His management fees are EXTREMELY competitive and he’s honest and fair. I have NOT received a charge for a fake service from him (something I experienced with my last manager). In fact, there are things that he didn’t charge me on that I felt he had every right to charge me for. For example, the PG&E utility switch from me to the tenant did not happen as it should and I ended up paying their gas bill for the first few months. I didn’t realize I was paying it (since they morphed it in with my gas bill for the property I live in) but, once I realized it, I told Joseph and he alerted the tenants and collected the back payments from them free of charge.
4) He’s made being a rental property owner, hassle free. He direct deposits the proceeds into my account, sends me monthly statements and tax docs, and handles everything having to do with the management of the property. I feel like I struck gold with him. A rental property manager who actually manages your property without additional hidden fees for managing your property??? THEY DOOOOO EXIST!!! And if you want to meet this rare unicorn of a rental property manager, contact Joseph now!

i live in one of there properties right know and it is infested with roaches. so when i first came to look at the apartment it seems like a nice area to be in. but fhe manager for my first apartment is cindy and she ia the worst person i had to deal with. so when we where going over the lease she hurried up and grabbed my money order and signed the front before we finished the lease and then she tells me that they have a pest control that come every month to spray for roaches and minx you this is my first apartment. but i would call her and complain about the roaches she told me that i am the only one who is complaining. before i moved any of my belonging in the apartment we bomb the place for a week straight.
so when we finally got all of our furniture in tg he apartment (all furniture was brand new) i was using the bathroom and the toilet was over flowing soo i gave cindy a call and told her what was going on and she told me that it is my responsibility to fix the toilet. i was so mad. ad since i have live ther i have always paid my rent on time only late once do to my money order getting lost in the mail

The Pierman’s are the worst property managers we have had in 16 years of owning our rental. They will promise they do their ‘due diligence’ before moving a tenant in. The 2 tenants they placed in my unit had no previous rental history. One was suppose to be starting a job in about a week (but never did start that job). The other «works’ from home. HA — no.
My rental became the ‘party’ unit for the high schoolers in the neighborhood. There was partying that started around 7 AM and quit about 11 pm. The police came out to talk to these tenants about public indecency, after a neighber filed a complaint about activity in the parking area.
My phone calls and text messages to the Pierman’s got me a couple of nasty notes from Joseph. He thinks by using MISDIRECTION and trying to put the blame off — make you the bad guy, that he can bully you into letting your property be misused and abused. You, the owner, are suppose to go quietly into the night and not bother them with the happenings of anything the tenants are doing. Joseph and Cindy did absolutely nothing to resolve the many issues created because of their choice of tenants. The tenants „friends“ traffic was so dangerous and noisy. Cars blocking the view of the main street for other residents pulling out of the driveway. Let alone, your place being turned into a parking lot of high schoolers and on average 15 people at a time, everyday, all day, in your 1 bath unit and all the problems this implies.
The tenants were in the unit 34 days. They were asked to leave and chose to do so to keep their record clear of an eviction notice.
Joseph and Cindy are as bad as it can get for a property owner. I am writing this in hope of keeping others from becoming victims of these two ruthless property managers.
This mess cost me thousands $$$ when you consider time for getting the unit rented originally, time needed for clean-​up after tenants moved out, time to hire another property manager time back on the market to find another tenant and to have to pay the FEE to another property manager, a fee of about $ 700.00 on average to the new PM for finding new tenants.
Do you think I even got so little as a note saying ‘We are sorry for the way this turned out»??? NO! I got nothing! Not a word from them and especially from Joseph who can’t keep his mouth shut, except — when you need his help. (of course they collected all their property management fees.)
None of what I am saying here now takes into consideration what mental stress all this brought to me while it was happening.
I see Joseph is writing his «I did a good job speech below» I am happy to provide pictures of the parking and number of cars as well as a copy of the police report.
This that Joseph wrote below proves exactly what I am saying. He does not care about the property owners, the money, time, and our investment. He made a decision about who he chose to rent the property to and he will defend it to the death of you!
Joseph you are saying I discriminate against age. You are saying I filed a false police report. You are saying my landscaper (who also works for the person who did file the police report, is the one who is guilty of these actions. You will need to defend all these remarks in court. I will not let you write inflammatory remarks about me and people that work for me as well as my neighbors. You have pushed me as far as you are going to. My son stopped me from suing you before will not be able to stop me now. BTW, your wife vetted the landscaper you refer to above, before hiring him to do work on your Folsom properties, for which he has never been paid. See you in court.
Delusional Joseph — he is right and the rest of the world is wrong.

Joe has been amazing to work with! This was the first time we rented a house and I felt bombarded by all the property manager companies out there. I automatically liked Joe because he was straight with me (not like other companies) about costs, services, etc. There was no doubt he was right for the job!!! He got our house rented fast and has been a pleasure to work with. He’s quick to help us get repairs done and keeps us informed on all things necessary. We recommend any who are considering renting their place to def try this company out!
