We are a family run, small business that has worked with Mann Properties for at least the last 4 years. They contract with us to provide security at some of the buildings they manage. I can not speak highly enough about them. As a contractor, I have to say they were great to work with, very professional and always looking out for both parties (property and contractor).

I own a unit in the White Marlin that is managed by Mann Properties and I have to say they are the worst management company around. They have put all of the owners at risk by not conducting accurate sprinkler inspections and letting some unit owners (who are on the board) get away with not fixing sprinkler violations in their units. Thankfully the OC Fire Marshall has stepping in and now they have corrected that issue but I would not let Mann Properties manage a dog house. Igor Conev is rude and arrogant and thinks he knows everything when he knows nothing.
He is a crook who thinks that the homeowners are dumb and do not know anything. If you question him he takes offense and will not answer your emails or take you calls. Meanwhile we pay his salary. WORST COMPANY EVER! STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM THEM AS POSSIBLE!

They are the worst management company in oc. Beware of Igore he works for them hes a snake. Dishonest Lier crooked. And a wuss. Do not hire them Donot let them run your financials They take your money and do no maintenance on any building. If you call to ask why they dont maintain there building they blow you off. Beware beware beware you will regret hiring them. They manage other buildings same problems. Owner does not care. He lets Igore run the building into the ground. pathetic company. Also they will sabatoge your sale of your units also.

My boyfriend and I are property owners of a condo managed by Mann Properties. They are, by far, the WORST company to deal with. We have been trying, for months, to get our exterior door replaced but have been unsuccessful. We pay $210 per month in HOA fees which is supposed to cover exterior building issues however nobody seems to want to replace our upper level exterior door despite the fact it was previously installed upside down, with the hinges facing outside.
The bottom hinge has now separated from the frame and the door leaks to the inside when it rains. I have contacted my HOA president Steve Himalfarb as well however he has refused to help me because I told him I would be seeking legal assistance if necessary to get my door replaced. Sound like retaliation? I think so!
