Well known for its entertainment industry, Hollywood, California is perhaps one of the most unique places to call home. It features historic movie studios, incredible attractions, and a thriving retail business district. It is also home to a diverse group of residents – some highly-affluent property owners. Owning real estate here can be quite profitable when you consider that the area’s median price for 2015 was well over $1.6 million. However, to ensure that you receive the very best returns on your investment in this popular area, you’ll need an experienced and aggressive management company. Utopia Property Management is that company.

We offer over 20 years of experience in zip code 90028 and the surrounding area.

Tenant screening: Finding the right tenant for your unique Hollywood property is a must. With the help of our local property managers, we will conduct background checks and a thorough identify verification. We will also complete credit checks, and verify income and employment. This will provide you with the peace of mind you need when preparing your property for rent.

Management and consulting: Often times, Hollywood property owners live in their locations and then move to the surrounding region. Many don’t want to deal with the hassles and difficulties associated with renting their properties – but we can help! Our consulting services focus on helping owners to transition owner-occupied buildings to rentals, pricing properties at the highest rents possible, and staging units for rent.

Repairs and maintenance: We have an in-house team to help manage your Hollywood real estate maintenance needs. Our team holds a general contractor’s license (Lic. #792427), which allows you to receive affordable yet exceptional workmanship on all repairs and maintenance the property may need.

Accounting: It is vital that you have a clear understanding of the financial data related to your rental unit, so we provide complete accounting services and web-based access to revenue and expense reports that are created just for you.
