Will and his team were wonderful! The entire team is responsive and very good at what they do. At any time, either Will or his team was able to solve the problem, especially from the tenants, very quickly. Will as an agent is also able to guide us through the complex buying process. I highly recommend them and would give them 10 stars if I could. Thanks Will! You rock.

I interviewed so many realtors before finally deciding on Will and Ken to help me with my purchase of my first multi family property. I chose them because they seemed the most experienced in the space, and I liked that they also had a property management company in case I ever needed those services in the future.Ken was my main point of contact throughout the buying process and it was a great experience. My favorite parts about working with this team were:1. They truly work in your best interest. Some other agents may push you to close on a deal purely because it will get them paid faster. Ken was absolutely not like that. He was not afraid to say “I don’t recommend moving forward with this deal.” He wanted to make sure you felt comfortable in your decision and felt good about moving forward. Even after we entered escrow, he made sure to check in with me that I am still feeling good about the transaction, and reiterated that we can cancel escrow if we needed to. We ended up cancelling escrow on a property where we found major issues, and Ken was very supportive throughout the whole process.2. They really know their stuff. If you are looking for a team that knows all of the little nuances about buying multi family and property management in LA, this is the team for you. There were so many small details, like rent freezes, permits, inspections, etc. that I would have never known if not for this team. Even though I was working with Ken and Will on the real estate side, Diana on the property management side went out of her way to answer my questions about property management. They are some of the most knowledgeable people in the space, especially for the LA market.3. They are well connected. The property I ended up purchasing was an off-market deal brought to me by their team. This helped because there was no competition for the offer, and it expedited a lot of the process. Especially in this competitive market, off market deals are where you can still find a lot of value, so you need a well-connected agent. This team is that and more. In addition, because of their property management business, they are very well connected to plumbers, handymen, contractors. inspectors, etc. I will definitely continue to lean on them as I manage my first property.The three points above were the highlights of my experience, but overall it was such a pleasant experience working with them. The cherry on top was they even sent me a gift basket and Lowe’s gift card after I closed! Small detail, but was a great end cap to a long buying process. I’m very happy with my decision and will continue to work with them for future purchases.

Will and Diana are seriously the best landlords I've had here in LA! I've dealt with some really horrible slumlords in the past and lived in places that were unsafe and not up to code. Will and Diana actually care about you and their properties. They have an online portal which makes maintenance requests and rent payment super convenient. The property manager actually did a real walk through with me before I moved in which made me feel so much more comfortable. They are very quick to respond and are very professional. The rent is a little high, but I feel it's worth it cit the quality of care. I hope to stay here for years to come. I was also not promoted in any way to write this review. I truly recommend renting with them!

I was searching around for a property management company and came across Tiao properties through Yelp.They gave us insight to all that they do in regards to property management and some referrals to great experienced vendors.They have a great online property management system that takes care of rent payments even repair requests. Will and team have been very professional managing the property, even helped mediate a good conclusion with a problem tenant.Besides being a great property management team, Will is very knowledgeable in all things real estate. He has answered all my questions and concerns regarding my real estate portfolio. As well as put us in contact with others to help on the finance side. Thanks for all your help and guidance!

I just closed on a house in Redondo Beach with Will. He is fantastic! Very upfront so he earned my trust right away. He provided us the inspection report before we made an offer so everyone had the right expectations going in. He is very pleasant to work with even when things come up. We had a situation because it was 2 houses on a lot and there was no HOA which presented a problem securing the loan. Will took the lead to determine what needed to happen and worked between our lender and the insurance folks to come up with a solution. He also worked with the buyers to ensure a team came in to clean the house, which was left very mess, so we could move in. He is a real pro and I would use him again and highly suggest you do too!

Tiao Properties are the best! The website is very efficient and easy to use — which makes paying rent and filing maintenance needs a breeze. Mary Jo is always on it, whatever you need. They took over management of the apartment complex I live in a few months ago and everything I needed fixed in my place was immediately taken care of. Highly recommend!

Real estate transactions are an absolute nightmare. They're surrounded with huge financial obligations, stress, and can tax you beyond the breaking point. That is why it is so incredibly important to surround yourself with broker's that represent YOU with integrity and honesty. Give yourself the chance to work with Will and Diana Tiao. Not only are they exceedingly proficient and resourceful, they are great people. Yes, I had 10 offers within one week of listing. Yes, they alleviated stress by referring me to trusted skilled tradesmen (extremely important). But, what sets them apart more than anything else? They actually care. Do yourself a favor and give them a call. It starts with a conversation that can create a relationship that'll last you a lifetime.

Will Tiao and his team at Tiao Properties are terrific. I purchased a property from a seller they represented and they were professional, responsive, polite and honest — so much so that months later when I was looking for an agent to represent me, I contacted Will. He has now represented me on three different properties and each and every time I have been thrilled with the result. Will is efficient, knowledgeable and hard working. He consistently delivers without ever complaining. If you work with Tiao Properties, you can sleep well at night knowing you're in very capable hands. I strongly recommend them.

In all my experience with property managers, it does not get better than Tiao Properties. They managed an investment property for a mutual client. They were always extremely professional, took full responsibility for overseeing all matters with the property, and all had the best team attitude. I look forward to working with them again. Would recommend them to anyone seeking property management or looking to list. Thank you, Will & Co.!

There are not enough stars for how satisfies I am as a client of Tiao Properties. Will, my broker and his fabulous team sold my building in Boyle Heights at over asking that more than covered his commission. Tiao Properties is great at marketing and my building sold in less than 2 months with multiple offers at the height of the Covid crisis.

I was looking for a reliable and trustworthy service during a difficult time. Although Tiao Properties did not offer the amenities I was looking for, they still took the time to answer questions and referred me to the proper channels. I'm certainly keeping their info for future reference.

Will did a fantastic job in helping me sell my duplex property. It was a tricky deal with multiple escrow fallouts and difficult buyer demands, but he was able to help navigate all the issues strategically and with a steady hand. Additionally, WIll is a rental property investor and runs a property management company, so brings with him a wealth of knowledge and resources – a valuable addition to any RE investor’s team. This is my second successful deal with Will, and I’d highly recommend him whether you’re buying or selling multifamily properties.

Will and his team at Tiao Properties helped me do the impossible — buy a four-plex investment property in Los Angeles for under $1 million! We all know how expensive investment real estate is in LA. Once we identified the property, we knew it was going to be very competitive with multiple offers. Even though mine was not the highest offer, we were able to get it accepted because of Will’s expertise in the area and his experience in managing and selling hundreds of multifamily units. Once in escrow, Will and his team helped me pull together the financing, the physical inspections, and handle difficult situations with the other side of the transaction. Now that we have closed (with a significant discount due to Will’s superb negotiating skills!), I’m still leaning on Will and his team for referrals for ongoing issues. If you’re thinking of buying or selling a multifamily property is Los Angeles, I highly recommend using Will and Tiao Properties.

Although we didn't go with this agency for our property, I would still highly recommend Will and his team. They are very knowledgeable and reliable… Will was great in explaining the comps and our area's duplex market… my housemates already had another agent already in place but Tiao and Will were my my suggestion.

Will has done an excellent job walking through selling my first home. He's gone above and beyond to find me multiple offers and working with the buyers agent to make the sale. I recommend his services to everyone I meet as an excellent realtor both buying and selling as well as property management team.

I stumbled upon Tiao properties via a direct mail advertisement [direct mail works people!].

I noticed the professionalism of the card, and also liked the fact that they were based in Echo Park, where I was in the market for a property manager and realtor.

From there, I reached out to Will via email and he responded immediately. He made an attempt to get to know me and learn more about what I was looking for, and we decided to meet in person to discuss a week later. Shortly after, my house is now managed by Tiao Properties.

My experience has been great since day 1. Whether it is Will, or anyone else in his office, people have been responsive, thorough, and understanding of my questions / requests.

I definitely recommend Tiao Properties to anyone looking for a full service property manager in the LA area.

Have worked with Will for almost a decade through dozens of transactions. His knowledge of real estate, multifamily, TIC transactions/conversions, and investment opportunities, is exceptional. His depth of knowledge and integrity make him a valued and trusted resource in the real estate industry!

Will Tiao is extremely professional. He is solution oriented. I have always experienced favorable interactions with him. He has my full endorsement. You’ll be in good hands with Tiao Properties!

Very happy to be writing this review as Will, Mary Jo, and the team at Tiao went above and beyond to sell our property in Silver Lake! We came to them after a bad experience with another local agent. To complicate matters even more we were in the process of moving from LA to Sydney, Australia. Not only did Will and team reassure us that they would be able to get the job done, they actually coordinated repairs, landscaping, and made sure that the house looked its best when potential buyers came through during each open house! All the while they kept us updated on what was going on. We’re happy to say that where other agents failed, Tiao Properties succeeded! I would highly recommend them for all your real estate needs! In addition to being good, competent agents, they’re also nice people. Thank you!

I've lived in one of Tiao's properties for three years now and recently, due to COVID-19, I experienced a particularly difficult situation. Christina, who's new to the team, didn't think twice about jumping in to help me out. Not only was she empathetic to my circumstance, she was quick, communicative, and driven to help find a solution. I felt like she actually cared – she called to check in, explored all of my options, and really heard me out. We've never had issues with Tiao but after this week, I was beyond impressed with the support shown by both Christina and the owners. Property management isn't always like that so we feel very lucky.

We are very pleased that we were able to acquire Tiao Properties service to manage our property! They are well focused and knowledgeable, also very accessible and always helpful!!!
