Jim and his staff at Mission Center Properties are amazing! I am a real estate broker/property manager and property owner (for the past 40 years) in Los Angeles who needed a property manager in San Diego for my Dad's rental condo, after moving my 88-year-old Dad, up to LA to live with me. Jim got my Dad's unit ready to rent very quickly and with no unnecessary expense. He subsequently found us an A+ tenant who has paid rent one day early every month. Jim has been very communicative and has made owning this rental property "out of town" simple. Two years later and we are now ready to sell my Dad's condo.

We had an approved offer, over asking, in the 1st week. Jim notified the tenant and she is graciously moving out at the end of this month. Fingers crossed, new Buyers will close and take possession in less than 21 days from today. Jim made all this possible! He is very attentive and almost always available. He is sensible and manages our property the way we could manage it ourselves. Property owners: I highly recommend Jim and Mission Center Properties!
Jim Schlesinger did a fantastic job as our seller's agent. His years of knowledge and experience in the San Diego real estate market were a tremendous asset as he was able to provide an initial review of the property and made useful suggestions before showing/listing. We were impressed by his timely responses to all of our inquiries and how he interacted in such a respectful way with us, the escrow agents, and the buyer's agent. Selling a home is a stressful situation and having Jim guide us through the entire process gave my family such peace of mind. He is very conscientious, a true professional, and a pleasure to work with! I would recommend Jim to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home.
We have experience buying, selling and renting with this company and all the transactions have been to our satisfaction. We bought our first house back in 2009 with Mission Center Properties (MCP). In 2011, MCP rented that house to us. They found great tenants that take good care of the property. After the second year, they increased the rent. MCP takes care of any issues such as repairs and they provide timely reports. We have also bought two other properties through MCP. Jim (the owner) takes the time to find properties that match our needs and helped us during the negotiation process. They also helped us sell one of the properties at the highest price for the layout in the neighborhood.
Thank god I turned over management to Jim Schlesinger. I was trying to manage my rental properties on my own. I was using a contractor to handle the repairs. I figured all I had to do is collect rent on Cozy and auto-pay the utilities. How wrong I had been! Dealing with all the issues in property management is much, much more. Especially handling all the constant phone calls for getting contractors quoits for improvements. It takes a team trained to handle all of it. Worth spending some money getting someone that will handle painting, flooring, landscaping, A/C, maintenance and so much more. You can never get your time back as a wise old man said.
