Uplift Property Management - Villa Del Cerro Apartments reviews

1.0★Jun 2026

I would give 0 stars if I could. They are fortunate I did not pursue legal action. When I first purchased the property and listed it for rent in 2022, I received 77 applications within just two days. In 2024, I hired Uplift because I was too busy to manage the property myself. Despite their assurances, they were unable to rent the property for three months. When I asked to take back management of the property, they claimed the rental market was poor for landlords, which turned out to be completely untrue. Eventually, they rented the property to Section 8 tenants who caused a lot damage to th…

Great work with Megan again for managing our property. She is very attentive and efficient. Our house was leased less than a week. We are happy with the service and appreciate her help.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Megan Green for the excellent service she has provided in managing my property. Her knowledge, responsiveness and genuine care have made a significant difference. Thank you for she always keeping me informed and handling matters efficiently. I truly appreciate everything she has done and look forward to continuing to work with her. Sincerely, Patricia

Would not recommend using for your property management needs. Lots of turnover - in the span of 2 years, I had 3 different managers and it was not clearly communicated when there was turnover. They did not properly renew my tenants lease and the tenants ended up living in my house for 3 full months with no lease. Hard to get a hold of anyone at the company; my emails would regularly go unanswered, and when I left voicemails they often weren't promptly responded to.

I highly recommend Claudina for property management service for her professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail. She consistently handle tenant communication, maintenance, efficiently, giving property owners peace of mind. Her proactive approach and strong organizational skills make them a reliable choice for managing any property.”

Megan with Uplift is a fantastic property manager. She is on top of the process, very quick to get the ball rolling in getting properties listed for rent on market, and she’s very communicative.

1.0★Apr 2026

This is a terrible property management company for owners. It’s a complete waste of time.There is absolutely no communication. The only person that answers the phone is Jorge. They want you to lower the rent and then they take over a month to get back to you on emails or tenants applications. Or there is no response at all then they take your money. I finally fired them and found my own tenants. It was such a huge waste of time and no rent collected.

1.0★Mar 2026

I wish my experience was better but as a property owner they are very slow to respond. You call and email and it’s crickets. I would not work with them again.

Although I've had several hiccups with previous managers within this company, I was finally paired with Stephen who has been nothing but great in spite of the mess he was thrown into. He is clear, responsive and professional, and has been able to address and help me with all of our issues.

Brianna continues to be helpful with my ADU Rental. I appreciate her efficiently taking care of resolving any concerns or questions that arise from me and/or my tenant. I also appreciate the videos for landlords that Uplift has been making and providing so I can become more knowledgeable concerning renting out properties

5.0★Sep 2025

I’ve had a great experience working with Lorraine Paniagua as my property manager. She’s professional, responsive, and always on top of things. Whether it’s maintenance requests or general communication, Lorraine handles everything efficiently and with care. It’s clear she takes pride in her work and truly values the tenants. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable property manager!

Megan is great to work with. She provides quick help and resolution to all rental issues.

4.0★Aug 2025

On boarding was a smooth process to get into their system and unit got rented within the first month. I was first assigned to 1 account manager and then there was a shift and this was a confusing period which is the only reason this is not a 5 star. Once I was given a new account manager the communication was much clearer and has been great since.

5.0★Aug 2025

Chris, Brianna and the Uplift team have been extremely professional and transparent with the management of our investment property. I feel blessed to be working with you all. Thanks for all you do!!

5.0★Aug 2025

Uplift Property Management and Brianna are absolutely awesome! They’re based right here in Ramona, CA and do a fantastic job managing both single-family and multi-family properties. It’s rare to find a property management company with consistently excellent reviews, but it’s no surprise with these guys. Professional, responsive, and truly great to work with—highly recommended!

5.0★Aug 2025

Uplift has been managing our property for over a year and their communication is excellent. Information about your property is always at your fingertips through the owner’s on-line private portal. We’re very happy with the lease agreement set forth for potential renters, and they are very proactive for the renters ensuring they immediately had all the benefits of living in the community. They are Proactive, Fair and Friendly.

5.0★Aug 2025

Megan has provided superior service from screening tenants to coordinating with contractors and getting estimates, getting the lease signed with new tenants and renewing an existing lease while taking over the property management from another company. Uplift utilizes state of the art tools and services for landlords to view statements, lease agreements, move in photos and checklists and for tenants to make payments.

5.0★Aug 2025

I've been using Uplift for 2 years now, and my property manager Megan has been very responsible and helpful. She always answers and follows up on my questions. I recommend using their service.

5.0★Aug 2025

The statement confusing and not accurate I discussed it with Megan many time the last statement my share is short $395.00 so far no good explanation , there was one time before I show it to Megan for over $400.00 few month ago , no answer yet of any explanation

Uplift property managerment is amazing, every time we had problems at our rental, they responded to the request and on it right away, they were able to resolved it immediately, if they can’t solve it the first visit, they arrange the next attempt asap till they resolve it. Very professional and knowledgeable company. Maria is our coordinator and she is the best.

I can’t say enough good things about Uplift Property Management! Since partnering with them, I’ve had zero worries or stress regarding my rentals. They’ve done a phenomenal job taking care of my properties, handling everything from tenant communication to maintenance with professionalism and efficiency.

Brianna, Tommy, and Chris have done an incredible job managing our property in Ramona, CA over the last three years. They helped us with a seamless transition with our first rental property. They prepared the property for rent with licensed, insured, and bonded contractors at a great price. They took pictures and generated the listing and identified, qualified and placed an incredible tenant. They manage all tenant inquiries, helped us to address a landscaping inquiry from the HOA at a great price, provide monthly statements, inform us if there is a holiday with a revised distribution date, an…

Avoid Uplift – Incompetent, Unresponsive, & Mismanaged Property Management I would never recommend Uplift Property Management to any landlord looking for competent, reliable, or professional service. My experience with them has been nothing short of a nightmare, filled with delays, mismanagement, and complete lack of accountability. Key Issues I Experienced: 1. Took 3 Months to Fill a Vacancy • When my previous tenant moved out, I was told upfront that finding a new tenant would be quick. Instead, it took 3 months—2 of which were spent getting the property into turnaround condition. • They a…

I bought my unit in 2020 and had to move after two years. My agent recommended uplift to me to help managing my unit rental and maintenance for a reasonable monthly fee. In the past three years I have been very satisfied with their services. They are experienced at finding good tenants, taking care of all the fixing and helping moving in of new appliances without extra charges. My property manager Megan Green is very nice, efficient, and knowledgeable. I do not have to worry about anything. Highly recommended.

1.0★Feb 2025

Be careful with Uplift processes where it is only benefiting themselves instead of the tenants or the owners. 1/ Communications can take days to get any response. Management is approved of this process hence their property manager does not have the need to get back to the tenants or the owners quickly even on urgent matters like fixing important items in the house. 2/ Uplift get the late fees instead of the owner and yet the owner still gets paid late if the tenants is late. Other providers will give the late fees to the owner as they have all of the financial risks. 3/ The owner gets paid …

So thankful for all of Megan’s hard work while we transitioned to new tenants in our condo. She kept us informed the entire way—what needed to be repaired, what to expect, costs involved, when old tenants moved out, when new tenants came in, etc. so appreciative of the great communication along the way! Thanks for making it so convenient and easy for us, Megan!!!

Terrible experience with Uplift PM! Unresponsive to emails and calls. We’ve been trying to get a hold of the PM for the past three weeks since we moved back into our property to clarify some of the questions we have. They went completely MIA. Unacceptable! I will not use them again after this experience.

5.0★Oct 2024

We’ve used Uplift to manage our property for the past 4+ years. Through that time they’ve been extremely transparent, easy to work with and very quick to screen and secure tenants who have treated our property as their own. Megan had been amazing to work with and always keeps us up to date on our property. We’re glad to have found Uplift and Megan!!

Brianna McCormiick is great and communicative! Have enjoyed working with Uplift for 2+ years now

1.0★Oct 2024

Extremely poor communication by the portfolio supervisor and her manager. We were getting more updates from the tenants themselves than from the Uplift team. No proactiveness, less than minimum required information provided via email such as who, what, when type of basics information. Rarely calling back on us, stating calls were given on their side, mentioning about leaving voicemails when none can be found on either my wife or my personal cell phones...

5.0★Jul 2024

We went with Uplift to manage our rental property primarily because of their PMA being very simple and fair and square. Megan Green is our Property manager and is so communicative and easy to work with. She placed our property on the market and had a lease signed in a week with a verified tenant. She kept us posted along with way without us every probing her. She answered all our questions and made to sure to add our concerns to the lease. Great company, no nonsense, seriously impressed

5.0★Jun 2024

Highly recommend Uplift Property Management! I really needed a hands-on property management company to manage my rental property and I couldn't be happier with Uplift. Their entire team is on point, from researching the market and setting realistic rental pricing, to making sure the property is 100% ready for the next tenant, to ensuring all lease agreements are handled with care, and most importantly, making the tenants feel confident that any maintenance issues will be resolved quickly and professionally. Everyone at Uplift has been a joy to work with. Brianna and Marly went above and beyond…

Brianna McCormack at Uplift Properties in Ramona is an amazing property manager. She took great care of our home and the tenants. Such a true breath of fresh air knowing your investment is taken care of. As soon as I get my next investment property I will be requesting Brianna manage as well.

After managing our townhome ourselves for a few years, we hired Uplift shortly before we brought our baby home. We are so happy we did! Megan, in particular, has been wonderful and goes above and beyond in her customer service. She responds to us very quickly and has handled all needs smoothly. We have no complaints other than we wish we would’ve started working with them sooner.

Uplift Property Management has made the process of renting our home very easy. I cannot express how thankful we are to have Megan Green as our property Supervisor she goes above and beyond what’s expected. She listened to our concerns and answered all of our questions and we had plenty. She managed to quickly get things rolling and worked on some necessary upgrades. She had our listing rented in no time. We honestly were not expecting this to happen so quickly. We couldn’t be happier with Uplift for providing such wonderful experts such as Megan.

I met Megan Green as she was coming out of our rental house with her arm over her face since the smell was so BAD. Megan has been instrumental in getting the house back into a state that people would want to rent it. The repairs and "fix" took less than 30 days to find a new family that fell in love with it and rented by the 1st of the month. Megan has been responsive to our concerns and many questions during the rental process of finding the right people for our house. Thank You Megan Green!

We're extremely pleased with the tenants of the property Uplift has been managing for almost two years.
