Fantastic experience: Because I live overseas, I have relied on Prop. B for the last 4.5 years to manage my rental properties in the Bay. Their experience has met all my expectations and I have never had any issues with their management.

Fantastic experience: Dealing with PropertyScouts was an absolute pleasure! From the moment we began our home search, Toni and Karina demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism, understanding and dedication. We had a very limited time to find a house and it wasn’t easy due to the limited options but their knowledge of the market, understanding of our preferences and quick responses made the entire process seamless. If you're looking for a property agent who truly cares about your needs and goes the extra mile, PropertyScouts is the right choice.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I have been renting under Property Scouts for approximately 5 years and they are amazing. When our previous rental was put up for sale, Property Scouts were able to quickly find us another rental without any issues. In the time of housing crisis, we were so grateful for their help and support. Our Property Manager is Karina, and she is awesome, caring compassionate and prompt with responses to any issues (she has even left us food for our doggy after an inspection). Property Scouts care about their tenants, homeowners and the properties they manage. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone Rochelle Lusher
Thanks so much Rochelle, its easy to be a great landlord when we have such amazing tenants like you!!
Fantastic experience: Nice tidy house and property, low maintenance, great location and positioned next to great neighbours (also with property scouts). Had no problems with the rental, any queries or issues were quickly resolved. Great communication from Karina, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I've been renting this property for 7 years. We had a previous company before we had Karina and just let me say what a change. Karina is Massive.

Thank you Karina.... For keeping it real! You're choice!
