Placing the right tenant is critical for long-term success. Our leasing services are designed to protect your property and minimize turnover by securing responsible, reliable renters.

Rent is deposited directly to your account, and we actively follow up on any delays or missed payments. Our consistent process ensures you maintain steady cash flow while reducing the stress of payment management.
Santa Monica Repairs & Maintenance
Keeping your property in excellent condition is one of our top priorities. We coordinate all repair and maintenance services using a network of licensed, vetted vendors.
Whether it's a routine plumbing repair, a new appliance installation, or preventative upkeep, we handle the coordination and cost tracking. Tenants submit maintenance requests online, and our team responds promptly to prevent small issues from turning into costly repairs.
24 Hour Maintenance Services
Emergencies do not wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our 24-hour management services give both owners and tenants peace of mind. We are available around the clock to respond to urgent maintenance issues, security concerns, and utility disruptions.
Quick resolution not only protects your property but also boosts tenant satisfaction and retention.

Transparency and accuracy are key when it comes to managing your investment. Our financial reporting services include detailed monthly statements, income and expense tracking, and year-end tax documentation.
Through our secure owner portal, you can access all your property’s financial data in real time. We also manage vendor invoices, security deposits, and property-related expenses with full documentation for your records.
“David Crown and LAPMG set the standard for professional and personable care. From the moment we first inquired about their suitability, this company has gone above and beyond anything we could have imagined to meet and exceed our needs for our properties. I give LAPMG my highest, unreserved recommendation.”
– Robert Wolff
“My wife Pat and I have been fortunate to own and manage apartment buildings in the Los Angeles Area. We decided to test several management companies by dividing our assets between them. The winner was LAPMG, now managing all of our properties. We receive our accounting on the 10th of each month or sooner. LAPMG is responsive and is an excellent manager. You do not have to do the test we did. You can trust LAPMG to do an excellent job for you."
- Carl Feldstein, Broker & Investor
“I’ve worked with Los Angeles Property Management Group, and know I can rely on them and trust in their work.”
– Laurie Lustig-Bower, Executive Vice President of CBRE
“LAPMG has managed our portfolio to great results for four years now. We trusted them with a major re-roofing project on our eight-unit apartment building in Glendale, which required extensive tear-off, removal, and replacement. On budget, on time. Thank you LAPMG.”
– Patrick Shandrick, Glendale Apartment Owner
“I was tired of managing my own property, so I hired LAPMG to take over management in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis. They handled a repair for me the very same day I signed. I’m glad I chose them.”
- Amy Chenowith, Apartment Building Owner
“The best business decision I ever made was hiring the Los Angeles Property Management Group five years ago."
– Cathy Jaquess, Rental Property Owner
