Happy Stories

“I was relocating from Portland, OR to the South Bay area for a new job, so I had a deadline for finding a place to live before that job started.

I found Lindsey Long’s listing in Redondo Beach online. I am so happy that I found her because I couldn’t have been happier with her customer service. As you can imagine, relocating state-to-state and trying to find a place to live without actually being there is pretty hectic. Lindsey made it super easy. She was very helpful with everything, quick to respond whether it was 7 in the morning or 7 at night, and extremely flexible. Exactly what I needed. I looked around and applied for apartments with other rental companies as well, but every single one of those just created hassle and headache. Lindsey, throughout the whole process, was very easy to work with and made my life really easy. We found her listing, applied, and signed the lease all within a couple of days. We were even able to sign the lease electronically, which was perfect for me as I was not even in the same state upon approval.

Of all the things I was worried about with this move, finding a place became the least of my worries, and all thanks to Lindsey. I couldn’t thank her enough. If you’re moving to the South Bay or Long Beach areas, (Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Long Beach), you HAVE to stop by Lindsey’s website and check out her listings. She’ll make your move easy. ”

“I simply cannot put into words how wonderful my experience with Lindsey Long has been. Lindsey personally helped me get into my dream loft in San Pedro. There were a few, ahem, complications I had and she more than worked with me, she is the reason I got the loft!!! The entire process was handled so professionally, I would definitely work with Lindsey in the future and highly recommend to anyone moving to the South Bay and Long Beach areas. I told Lindsey that she would have to expand past her coverage area if I were ever to move elsewhere. I give Lindsey Long a huge two thumbs UP!!!!”

“I was looking for a rental in the South Bay and came across a rental listing online that I added to my clipboard. Lindsey Long was prompt to contact me and asked if I had any questions and to see if I wanted to set up an appointment to check out the place. She was very flexible and cooperative throughout the whole application, lease signing, and inspection process. I am a big fan of almost all of the paperwork being electronic and it was so helpful that she sent out all of the inspection pictures for my records as well. Lindsey’s listing online was very easy to navigate and had a comprehensive package of pictures, maps, and general info for all of her properties. I had a very pleasant experience with Lindsey and would recommend her to anyone looking for a place in the South Bay.”

“When we were looking for a place to rent, Lindsey Long was awesome. She was very professional, always helpful and made the process from start to finish a breeze. From the time we took a first look at the place to when we got the key, Lindsey was fast and friendly!
We would definitely Lindsey’s services again. Thanks Lindsey!! ”

“Lindsey provided a very professional service. The rental agreements were a breeze to use online. Most importantly, she found great tenants for my properties in Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach. I will hire Lindsey Long for all of my future vacancies!”

“ I hired Lindsey Long to find tenants for my rental property, a townhouse in Torrance. I dealt with her directly, and she came to see the unit and took pictures. When the pictures and the ad were put on the internet shortly after that, the unit rented in four days! Faster than an ad that I could have generated in the newspaper, and she rented it for more than I expected to get. Thank you Lindsey!”

“Excellent service! Professional and personal care with a clear focus on getting the “right” tenants for our house in Hawthorne. Efficient and reliable communication and easy to work with. Thanks Lindsey! ”

“Lindsey Long was the only person in 3 years of renting my home who followed through and delivered on her promise to rent my condo home in Redondo Beach. Not only that, but she also placed good tenants in my home quickly and efficiently with little hassle on my end. She worked tirelessly and relentlessly to get the job done. When the time comes to finally sell my home, she will be my choice for the job as well. I would recommend her services to anyone. Thank you Lindsey!”

“I hired Lindsey Long to lease my house in Rancho Palos Verdes and she worked diligently to get my house rented. I was relocating at the time and was unable to put in the effort needed to find perfect tenants. Lindsey showed my house regularly until it was rented. Her efforts resulted in getting my required rental amount. When it was time to sign the lease, Lindsey was attentive to the agreement details I had requested. She handled all monies and the explanation of the lease to the tenants in a very quick and professional manner. Lindsey was dedicated and committed to finding me the perfect tenants, and that she did.”

“My boyfriend and I were moving from NYC to LA and, needless to say, trying to trust craigslist ads from across the country was an intimidating venture. I came across a listing one day on CL that seemed to fit all of the criteria we were looking for. It was one of Lindsey Long’s listings in Redondo Beach.

Almost immediately after emailing her a plethora of questions, she responded within 30 minutes and was very understanding of our relatively unusual situation. She was very patient, even as I bombarded her with questions. I confided that I was having a hard time dealing with the fact that I could not see the place in person. She offered to go over to the place herself and take more pictures and also a video of the unit and its surroundings. We had that video the very next day.

She also suggested that we ask a local friend and/or family member to go look at the unit for us. I never felt pressured into submitting an application. But we eventually did, and we couldn’t be happier. Lindsey made the process so simple and easy, and she was incredibly sweet and professional. She offered us advice on the neighborhood and put us in touch with our landlord’s friend who had furniture to sell. All in all, it was a great experience! I would recommend Lindsey to anyone who’s looking for an apartment in South Bay.”

“Lindsey is the best agent I have ever worked with. She has leased two properties in Hermosa Beach for me recently, screened the applicants, showed the listing at their time frame and kept me informed. I give her the best of references for this job. Lindsey goes way above the call of duty for all concerned. ”

“I have been doing my own tenant placements for over 15 years but had to turn to someone else because of my unavailability to show the units. I have two buildings in Long Beach and was nervous about turning this responsibility over, as I have had good success on finding quality long term tenants. Lindsey Long did an excellent job of listening to my needs, understanding my qualification requirements, and finding quality tenants. Her work was effective and efficient and minimized my need to be involved which is exactly what I was looking to accomplish. It has been many months now and the tenants are happy and I am happy. No doubt I will continue to use Lindsey in the future for my tenant placements. ”

“I have owned rental property in the South Bay for over 24 years and have done my own tenant search, advertising and paperwork. However, recently I have not kept up on the current technologies. So I turned to Lindsey Long for assistance. Lindsey was outstanding in using all the current technological tools that are available, and she found a great renter quickly and efficiently.”

“I’ve recently found a rental property in Torrance that Lindsey Long had listed online. From the start, she provided all of the info needed to get started with the application process. She was super friendly, on time, responsive and she made the process fast and smooth! I checked out the property on a Friday and signed and received the keys Thursday the following week. She’s amazing and I would recommend Lindsey Long to anyone who is looking to move!”

“I just recently got an apartment in San Pedro with Lindsey Long! She was extremely helpful and even went as far as helping me find places in the area such as gyms, stores, metro, etc, and that was all after I had already signed the lease! Thank you Lindsey!”

“I have always leased my own properties in because I found it hard to trust anyone else to do the job. I have owned rental units since 1993 in Long Beach and until last year, I rented all my units through my own labor. Now it is hard for me to find the time so I looked for someone I thought I could trust. My wife found Lindsey Long and after meeting with her, she was hired by us.

I thought I did a pretty good job on my own, but I soon found out that I was not very good at finding great tenants. Lindsey did an outstanding job for us, with very thorough paperwork, great tenants and saved me a lot of time and effort. She was so good the first time I have hired her to fill two other vacancies. Both of which she has completed quickly and with higher quality tenants than I was finding myself. I highly recommend Lindsey Long.”

“I saw an ad for a rental property in San Pedro and immediately spoke to Lindsey Long, the listing agent. She was fabulous! Unlike other places I had contacted, where I waited and waited forever to have someone let me know if their apartment was still available, Lindsey got back to me quickly that time, and EVERY time thereafter, when we needed to communicate. I was frantic to find a place… FAST!

Lindsey met me shortly after we first communicated online and because she’s so up on all the technology that makes renting so easy these days, I didn’t have a pile of papers to carry around. Everything from start to finish was able to be done online, right down to the final lease signing.She was prompt for the meetings we had scheduled, and although I was lucky not to have issues with my apartment, I felt certain that if there was a problem, Lindsey would move heaven and earth to get it resolved for her new “tenant.”

Although Lindsey is hired by owners who want to get their properties rented, I found that she was every bit as diligent and loyal to me, a prospective tenant, as she must be to the owner who hires her. A win win for all!

Lindsey was friendly, professional and thorough and I would use her again in a minute should the need arise.”

“I really enjoyed working with Lindsey. She is professional and extremely hard working. As a landlord, it is hard to find dedicated help to rent out your properties. Lindsey showed true dedication in getting the job done. Thanks Lindsey for all of your help.”

“Lindsey is very professional. She’s great and efficient. I’d recommend her service if you need assistant in finding tenants. Great job Lindsey!!”

“I work with Lindsey Long for my buildings in the south bay and she is amazing. She always provides excellent customer service and has rented my units out very quickly. I had always been skeptical to work with a rental/management company, but Lindsey has really changed my views. I would recommend her and her company to all property owners needing help with renting.”

“I don’t always “write reviews,” but when I do... It’s because it’s absolutely necessary. Hence, is the case of Realtor, Lindsey Long. Simply, she rocked the socks off of how renting an apartment should be.

After recently relocating to LA, I quickly found out the hard way how “bonkers” finding a decent apartment is in this fine city. I must have seen more than 25 places, and more if you count the “drive-bys.” I utilized basically every resource available... you name it, throw in the kitchen sink, and I was using it. The apartments I did deem a possibility had agents/landlords that either, wouldn’t answer, not show up, didn’t speak English, or would flat-out lie about the situation of the complex. But, oh nay-nay, Lindsey was the exact opposite. Not only did she show me a great place in Redondo Beach, she also went to bat for me (regarding a poor credit situation) and landed me a place within 24-hours! One sec, let me say that again, “basically a day!” Because of her, I now am a proud and happy renter of a place that is exactly perfect.

If I’m ever in the neighborhood of relocating to another place in Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, or the Hermosa Beach areas – Lindsey is my go-to. Brass tax, I will most definitely use Lindsey Long again. Thanks for everything!”

“I worked with Lindsey and she was so amazing. This is the first big move I have ever made and everything was quick, to the point, and easy to understand. She went through the whole contract to ensure everything was clear. The whole process literally took less than a week and before we knew it, my boyfriend and I were in a beautiful apartment in San Pedro. Lindsey always catered to our schedules and was very flexible about the times we could meet to go over the details of the move (credit check, paperwork, etc...) If we ever move again, Lindsey will be the person to call for sure.”

“My roommate and I worked with Lindsey when we stumbled upon one of her Hermosa Beach listings. I have never had such a painless experience when it comes to applying for an apartment. Lindsey was very nice, helpful, and professional, but even better...she was FAST! She was available via text message or e-mail. She was always prompt to respond to our questions with thorough answers. I went from not having an apartment, to signing a lease in less than 4 days! Another thing that was helpful with Lindsey’s listing was the video tour. My roommate wasn’t able to come see the apartment because of work, so she viewed the apartment online and therefore she felt comfortable moving forward with the application process and lease signing. We LOVE our new apartment and couldn’t be happier with the service we received. I highly recommend Lindsey’s services. I will use her in the future if we ever leave our apartment (but that won’t be any time soon :) )!”

“We were moving back from the east coast, and had to secure a place before we made it back to LA. We could never have done it without the help of Lindsey Long! She was responsive, prompt and a pleasure to work with! She was always professional and willing to address any concerns that came about. We found the perfect apartment with her help. The lease was all signed electronically. When we arrived back on the west coast, she was waiting for us with a key to our new home in Hermosa Beach! Thank you Lindsey!”

“I started working with Lindsey on my rental unit in Westchester. She was wonderful to work with and so professional. She followed up with me on every showing and kept me in the loop at all times. There were several questions I required regarding my property, and she followed up with names, numbers, and pertinent information. My unit rented in less than a month and I am very pleased with my new tenants. I will hire Lindsey Long again.”

“If you are looking for a place in the South Bay area, Lindsey Long is your girl. We tried other rental companies and we got scammed at least twice. Then we saw Lindsey’s listing and contacted her right away. She was very nice and responded to our txt, emails and calls right away. She really went over and above and beyond our expectations.

The first property that we saw did not work out, but then we found a house in Hermosa Beach on her listings which is perfect because we have a small dog. But unfortunately, we noticed that on the listing it said no pets. I still contacted Lindsey to let her know that we are interested in the house. Lindsey immediately contacted the owner of the house and she made it happen. She talked him into having us lease the house with our dog. You can find a great leasing agent, but its hard to find a great leasing agent who is also a nice and understanding person. Thank you Lindsey, we love our new place in Hermosa Beach! :)”

“My boyfriend and I just rented our first apartment in Hawthorne with Lindsey Long. Lindsey was great to work with as she was friendly, professional and prompt with communicating with us. Texts and calls were answered almost immediately. We even had a few bumps in the process but she didn’t give up on us nor treat us any different because of the inconvenience. We really appreciated her patience.

Do yourself a favor and follow Lindsey’s advice on how to submit the perfect application to stand out from the crowd. It paid off because it made our application process very fast. We applied on a Saturday night and had the keys and signed a lease by Wednesday.

We had a great experience with Lindsey and will go back to her when we are ready to move again. Thanks Lindsey!”

“I have rented TWO separate times from Lindsey Long, and she was great!! Each time I worked with her, the process was very fast and easy. She worked around my very busy and hectic schedule and was very understanding if something came up or if I had to change the meeting times. Both times we had great communication through texts and email, which is the way I prefer since I am always working. She notified me at her open houses of properties that were going to be coming available and advised me to keep an eye on her website (that is how I found my current place, which is amazing!!)

Lindsey reviewed my application with the owner to be sure that I was qualified BEFORE I paid the application fee. Not a lot of places will go through the trouble of “pre-qualifying” you.

All in all, I had a great experience and I would recommend Lindsey Long to anyone who is looking for a place in the South Bay! :)”

“My boyfriend and I were in the market for a new apartment earlier this year. We had to be out of our old spot by May 5. We had terrible luck finding a place we liked, or even getting in contact with someone to show us a property at all. The last week of April we found a listing listed with Lindsey Long for a condo in Long Beach, CA.

Lindsey was so friendly, helpful and AVAILABLE! -which seemed to be an uncommon trend in our previous apartment searching. Within a matter of days, we were able to see the unit, put in our application, got approved and we were moved in by May 1st. Lindsey was so sweet, easy to contact via phone, email and text, and she really helped prepare us with suggestions to make sure we were chosen for the unit, as we were not the only candidates.

All the paperwork and lease signing was done electronically which was very helpful with our busy lives and our quick, sudden move. We were able to do it quick from home, as opposed to having to take the time to meet to sign paperwork. Also, Lindsey assisted us with a thorough walk through prior to our move in to ensure we were protected, which I thought was great. She also conducted all communication to the owner on our behalf regarding all of our concerns and requests prior to move in.

5 stars for Lindsey. If we are ever in the rental market again, without a doubt I will go through Lindsey again, and would absolutely recommend to a friend.”

“Hands down, Lindsey Long is more than who we could have ever asked for in our stressful journey of finding a new home. I have rented 5 properties in the last 3 years and have a good idea of what being taken advantage of looks like in the world of renting privately.

I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with Lindsey’s professionalism, honesty, and most importantly, trustworthiness. From the first interaction, to the signing of the lease (and afterwards), she made my boyfriend and I feel like our interests and the criteria of what we envisioned our new home would look (and cost) were addressed and valued as her top priority.Renting privately is a stressful (and often disappointing) process. Out of all the Realtors I have worked with, thank GOODNESS for Lindsey Long and her resources. We would much rather work with people who make us feel like valued applicants and future tenants. I would definitely recommend Lindsey to anyone who’s looking to rent a beautiful and beautifully priced property in the South Bay or Long Beach areas.

Thank you, Lindsey! You were such a joy to talk to and work with, and from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us secure our new home in San Pedro, especially after 6 months of painful searching!”

“I worked with Lindsey Long who operates in the South Bay. She was amazing and really helpful. Lindsey is extremely thorough with the application process and background checks, which I’m sure is reassuring for any prospective landlords who hires Lindsey. Overall, it is the best rental experience I have had so far and I am very excited to move into my new place!”

“We moved from Portland, and landed in a starter apartment for the first year. But we knew two things; we wanted to be able to see the sunset from the new place, and we needed a patio/balcony. Check and CHECK.

Enter Lindsey.

There was a cute little house overlooking the water at the top of Hermosa Beach. My wife and I could not pull the trigger fast enough. It was Lindsey’s property to market, and I think she probably had it in her portfolio five minutes before I started knocking on the door. She was so responsive and helpful through the whole process, could not have asked for more. She set up a meeting with me to go through the house, as well as meeting the owner - who was awesome, and did it all within about 5 days, start-to-finish.

If you’re in South Bay, she’s your girl. Today we’re really happy, and are out back watching sunsets regularly :) Thank you Linds!”

“Lindsey is magnificent! I recently rented a beautiful new home in the South Bay and was immediately drawn to the well-published and smartly marketed unit by real estate expert Lindsey Long. The professional manner in which she presented herself and property listing was very unique. She easily stood out even the in the hyper-competitive and creative market of LA, and did so by brilliantly leveraging every opportunity in the fast-changing world of tech and social media. Lindsey and her company are interested in representing customers with a sense of superior, yet sincere, customer service. That’s a hard line to walk these days. But Lindsey does it with professionalism, charm, and pizzazz.

Without a doubt, buying or selling homes, landlords looking to list property, or renters searching for a home, I can tell you I will never again look further than Lindsey Long for support. And neither should you.

Lindsey, thank you. You are a true diamond in the real estate rough!”

“I’m a landlord in the South Bay, and I’ve been working with Lindsey Long for the last two years. Each time, Lindsey rented my condo well within the first 30 days of listing it. More importantly, she found well qualified tenants that have been a pleasure to assist. Lindsey is very attentive to every detail throughout the rental process. If you need to rent your condo, house, or apartments, I highly recommend that you contact Lindsey to reduce your stress and provide an excellent customer service to your tenants.”

“I moved from San Francisco for a job in Long Beach and Lindsey was awesome to work with. From the very beginning, she was responsive, helpful and very sweet. My roommate and I were lucky to be the first ones to submit applications for a great condo near the Traffic Circle, and as promised, Lindsey worked on the approval process that same day, finishing it within 24 hours. She was organized and kept us updated throughout the whole process, which eliminated the guessing game that I’ve usually experienced. We applied on a Wednesday, signed the lease that Friday, and moved in the next Wednesday— so easy! During our move-in walkthrough, she helped us record any and all existing damages and provided organized packets for my roommate and I that included our lease, utilities companies we needed to call, and all the necessary contact info. I loved working with Lindsey, and would absolutely recommend working with her if you’re looking for a place in SoCal.”

“Lindsey Long is simply AMAZING at what she does.

As a property owner I’veused other types of agencies in the past and had terrible experiences,not to mention some of the dreadful tenants craigslist brought my way.

Over the past thirteen months, I hired Lindsey to lease four of my vacant apartments and she did an outstanding job each time, not to mention getting my rents up to market rate and increasing my total monthly income significantly. Hiring Lindsey has allowed me to manage my own property, without a management company, by properly screening tenants, which allows me to focus on maintaining my building while increasing profits.

I’m currently looking to purchase another piece of rental property and will continue to work with Lindsey on every vacancy that needs to be filled.”

“After weeks of searching and failing to find a nice and safe apartment in the very competitive Long Beach area, we contacted Lindsey about viewing her listing and she was so very helpful and responsive. We immediately fell in love with the place and Lindsey was there every step of the way to guide us through the process with quick answers to any questions and concerns. She even went out of her way to provide us with tips on how to seal the deal with the landlord and stand out from other applicants.

I definitely plan on working with Lindsey again when it comes to either a new rental or owning a home. You will not regret working with her!

Thank you so very much Lindsey!”
