About America's Best

A Riverside property management company, leasing and managing homes across Southern California for 25 years.

Our story

Jeff Maas founded America’s Best Property Management in 2001. He was already running National Realty Group and National One Mortgage, and their investor clients were tired of managing their own rentals. They wanted full service at a flat fee instead of a percentage of their rent, so that’s what America’s Best was built to offer.

Today the company sits alongside National One Mortgage, National Realty Group, and Escrow One, all operating under California DRE #01129578. That’s the idea behind our tagline: your one stop solution for all your real estate needs.

What renters and owners say

Quoted word for word from our Google reviews. We don’t write them and we don’t edit them.

  • “Ask for Renee if you're looking for great customer service and a property manager that knows the business. We needed our house rented within a month. Renee told us she could do that for us and had a list of applicants as soon as our property was listed. We were very happy that our house was rented so quickly. She was very friendly and efficient! We thought it would be a hassle to rent our house but she made the process very smooth. We highly recommend calling her if you're looking to rent your house.”
