Joe C.

Joe is one star King of Realty. He runs a real shady business, he had my 93 year old spanish only speaking Grandmother sighn 12 to 13 papers with no interpreter to sell her house and gave her not one copy. Seller, renter beware!!!!

I was living at 32nd St in North Park under Joe Carta Realty for about 4 years. Not every property management is perfect. My unit was updated and honestly, there was not much to complain about. Every time I submitted a maintenance request, they sent someone to come look at the issue. There were times that the trash was every where outside in the back, and when I sent a request they would get to it. In the second year of my tenancy, I got a therapy dog, and JCR didn't question me. Overall, as a tenant, I didn't have issues with JCR. Do they not answer phone calls, yes, but every time I texted them, they would answer. They also manage a lot of other properties in SD, and most of their properties are affordable. In my experience with JCR, they are your average property management. They will get back to you. Overall, they are decent PM.

We were looking for rental places and saw a very nice, if a bit expensive, place offered on High St in La Mesa. We called and left a message asking for more details about the property. When they called back, the realtor on the other end said some wild things. They wanted "a certain class of people", asked if we had kids because they didn't want kids on the property, nor dogs, and when we mentioned we have cats they asked us to SUBMIT PHOTOS OF THE CATS TO MAKE SURE THEY WERE APPROPRIATE FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD. Clearly, this is an elitist group who are the pinnacle of Patrick Bateman-esque yuppie classism. I'm actually glad they revealed who they were right away. I believe anyone who rents or buys from Joe Carta Realty should be aware of the NIMBY culture that this company encapsulates.

My wife and I rented through Joe Carta for 2 years. Lucreatria was our renting agent/property manager. Office ladies were always nice and helpful, no random intrusions LL always gave us notice before coming by. Landscaping and monthly pest control people were always great. When we moved out Lu asked us if there was any improvements we thought the property or rental service could improve on. Joe was easy to work with when we first moved in and with our initial move in date. Moving out was a breeze. I repair rental properties for a living and these seem like great people when it comes to caring about tenant living conditions. I would rent throuhh them again.
