IDS Real Estate Group

IDS performs all property management and leasing duties for a small office bldg my brother and I own in East San Diego county. Initially, we hired them only as the property mgrs, and had another group as the leasing agents. After having an empty office space for over a year, we switched to IDS as the leasing agents also. They found a tenant within a couple of months in a very down commercial market.
I can sleep at night knowing that IDS is handling all the issues, and we have had many. Had to replace one of the light poles on the parking lots, had to analyze whether to re-​do the entry lobby and get bids, had to re-​do electrical, had a slip and fall, had vagrants sleeping on the property and IDS had to deal with the police, etc., etc. We wanted to upgrade the hallways and IDS found a great photographer whose beach scene photos really beautified the hallways at a very reasonable price.
They negotiate the contracts with tenants so that all I have to do is review them, and take care of complying with contractual requirements for signage, etc. They recently got us a spiffy tenant with a 5-​year contract, again — in a very down commercial market.
IDS is extremely professional and very attentive to everything. They email and mail complete operational reports every month, and are very quick to answer phone or email questions.
They also have offices in Los Angeles and Orange County. They manage both small and large corporate offices.
