Urban Coast Properties

About Us

We are San Diego Natives

Our Story.

As San Diego natives, we have seen the evolution of the local economy and have been excited by its vibrant culture, innovative business, and unique people. We invest in and manage apartment and commercial buildings throughout the county. We are experts in identifying opportunity, leaders in adopting innovative solutions, and uniquely qualified to sustain growth for owners without compromising quality for tenants.

San Diego Property Management

Better Services

Urban Coast Properties emerged as a result of our dissatisfaction with the limited options and outdated practices we encountered in the Apartment Management Market when we were searching for managers for our own buildings several years ago. Due to the high value we place on our assets, we made the bold choice to take control and manage our properties ourselves, as we couldn't trust anyone else with such valuable investments.

We pride ourselves in approaching everything we do with integrity, transparency, and innovation. We treat every building as if it were our own and every tenant as if they were our only customer. 

By respecting every applicant and tenant, we establish an environment which demands clear communication and mutual understanding. We fill our clients’ buildings with the best tenants in San Diego because we provide our renters modern solutions with old-fashioned authenticity.
