What Our Residents Say

“Beautiful property, great communication, and a landlord who actually listens. I've been here three years and couldn't be happier.”

“Rennie and his team at Valley Vintage genuinely care about their tenants. Moving in was seamless and the neighborhood is wonderful.”

“On a couple of occasions, if I had a question or request I would call your office and you would always return my call the same day to check in with me. I appreciate that you cared about me as a tenant, as your efforts went above and beyond. Thank you for being a landlord that I remember as a fair and trusting person. I look forward to keeping in touch with you and will certainly refer your property.”

“I lived at Rennie Gabriel's Cordova St. property for over 2 years. In that time, I came to discover what it means to be a great landlord. I have never had minor/major apartment issues answered so promptly and without hesitation. Rennie was always available by cell phone and at my apartment within the hour to fix any problem. He was and still is the most proactive, helpful, and handy landlord I have ever had the pleasure of renting from. Had I not moved out of the area, I would still be happily renting from him.”

“Living at the Chandler-Frederic Apartments is an absolute dream! The landlord, Rennie is friendly, takes great care of the building, the property, and all the units. I have never lived somewhere where management was so responsive with maintenance requests. I feel respected and cared for as a tenant. My favorite part of the building is the beautiful landscaping of all the plants and trees. I live in Burbank, but sometimes I feel like I live in a forest filled with happy birds and happy trees. This makes me love this space so much. The property stays clean and vibrant. Rennie also has a knack for finding great tenants. Every single neighbor I have met has been a genuinely nice and helpful person. This is my favorite living situation ever.”

“I lived in a rental unit under Rennie Gabriel/Valley Vintage for nearly two years in Burbank, California. To this day, it has been the best landlord-tenant experience I have ever had. My needs at 250 N. Cordova Street never went unanswered - in fact, they were addressed within 24 hours. Twice I needed a drain cleared in the bathroom - to the point I could not use the shower - and Rennie made arrangements the SAME DAY to fix it. The management style and abilities, I feel, helped make my stay enjoyable and certainly well-lived. I will never forget my first meeting with Rennie, after the rental papers were signed. Rennie gifted me a book he wrote that he said he gave to all his tenants - a book about finances. He said most of his tenants leave his rentals because they have purchased a home for themselves. That's a pretty good record - and the book was an easy read, one that certainly to this day has helped shape the way I handle my own finances.”

“Concerning my tenure as a tenant at 11508 Moorpark Street, Apt A, Studio City, CA, with Rennie Gabriel as the landlord, I have nothing but good things to impart. Whenever a problem came up at the dwelling, Rennie dealt with it in a reasonable and efficient manner. When my air conditioning unit gave out, Rennie replaced it as requested. When I was in the process of changing employers and experienced a gap in pay, Rennie was understanding and didn't charge me a penalty fee for paying the rent after it was due. When vandalism with mailboxes and theft of mail and car break-ins became a problem, Rennie installed a security camera in the lobby. Rennie and his staff were as polite and understanding as they were professional. Rennie and I often had pleasant conversations and on occasion recommended reading material to each other. Overall, he seemed as much a friend as he did a landlord.”

“Rennie Gabriel was the property manager at my apartment on 10636 Landale St for approximately three years. In that time, Rennie was extremely responsive and offered up to 24 hour accessibility on various occasions. In my time there, Rennie aggressively pursued neighbor noise violations which compromised the well-being of the entire building. He showed great commitment to helping his tenants. On a daily basis, Rennie was available by phone for anything and everything ranging from maintenance to unrelated questions about area rules and regulations. One instance of dependability that comes to mind is when Rennie helped me scrape melted plastic off a heating grate on a Sunday, just before the holidays. Requests were consistently fulfilled in a timely manner and with great respect to accommodating my schedule. On a personal level, Rennie was always extremely respectful of my home and very diligent about keeping my dogs safe when entering the apartment. He was a lovely property manager, so much so that when the properties were divided and he left, we left shortly thereafter, as we were not getting the same level of care which he had provided.”

“I have lived at my apartment residence for the past 10 years, where Rennie Gabriel has overseen the property as landlord. His response to residential issues was always prompt and complete. I have had repairs and interaction that ranged from clearing drains, outside lighting issues, paint up-keep and disruptive noise from unruly neighboring buildings. The landlord responsibilities from Mr. Gabriel had been professional and up to the highest standard.”

“We lived in Studio City for 7 years in a building owned by Rennie Gabriel. We leased it while we were still living in New York. Whenever we needed anything it was handled quickly and efficiently, from an air conditioning issue to plumbing. We only moved out because we purchased our own home.

You will love living in any property owned or managed by Rennie Gabriel. He is a stand alone, amazing landlord, truly the model for what everyone should be.

We always talk about how amazing of a landlord Rennie was. We had so many amazing memories from the time we lived there. How welcoming he was to us and our three dogs. He brought biscuits for them during the holidays. He's the best!

Every time we pass the loft, we look up and talk about who might be there now, what it was like to move across the country and have such a great place to live.”
