What clients say

Trusted by Owners and Investors

“I moved three properties over from another manager and the difference showed up immediately. Very clear communication and fast responses from our regional manager, Michael. Absolutely would recommend to any property owner out there!”

SoCal Multifamily Investor

“Our retail center had three years of unreconciled CAM when Motiva took over. They cleaned it up, recovered the shortfall, and went back to collect the owed amounts. Very responsible people and super detail-oriented during onboarding.”

Owner, Retail center in Azusa

“When I first learned about Motiva, I was a bit skeptical on the rates as they are 50% lower than my previous management company. I've been with them for 6 months now and the service is incredible, much better than my previous company. The rates are also insane!”

Owner, 22-unit apartment in Pasadena

“Maintenance was where my last manager made their margin. Every invoice came back marked up. Motiva's pricing is a fraction of what I was paying, and nothing gets done without my approval first. Same quality of work, far less money.”

Owner, 13-unit apartment in Covina

Innovative technology

AI-Native Technology Stack. Better Services. Lower Fees.

Our in-house technology stack allows for more efficient management, higher transparency, and clearer communication.

We average 5% higher rents than competitive properties.

Most PM firms delay unit turns and list units at below-market rents. The national average unit turn is 30 days. Here's what we do to achieve better results:

Immediate Inspection Upon Move-Out
Detailed Rent Survey (Including Trend, Demographic, and Renovation Analysis)
Cost- and Time-Efficient Unit Turns
24/7 AI Leasing
Diligent Tenant Screening

Every repair tracked from request to completion.

Many customers come to us after their old PM firms overcharge, double-charge, and delay maintenance. We track everything transparently and have a deep understanding of market prices.

Work Orders Come in Through the Portal
24/7 AI Response for the Best Tenant Experience
Every Work Scope, Pricing, and Completion Time Logged
AI Suggestions on Pricing and Bids
Photo/Video Documentation on Every Work Order

Strict documentation to prevent and fight against lawsuits.

Habitability claims and fair housing lawsuits are costly. Here's what we do to prevent cases, reduce lawyer fees, and increase your chances of winning:

Every Tenant Communication Logged in One Platform
AI-Edited Responses for Legal & Fair Housing Compliance
AI Document Scan to Ensure No Missing Documentation
AI-Drafted Documents From Attorney-Reviewed Templates to Prevent Mistakes
Organized and Dated Files for Counsel to Quickly Review and Understand (Saves Hours in Lawyer Fees)

AI reminders and follow-ups to ensure nothing is forgotten.

Property managers have thousands of things going on. Rent increases get missed and late payments go unchased. At Motiva, nothing is forgotten. Here's how:

Rent Payment Follow-Ups
Tour Reminders, After-Tour Follow-Ups, and Application Follow-Ups
Delinquency, Failed Payment, and Late-Fee Reminders
Rent Increases, Lease Renewals, and Move-Outs Sent on Schedule
Automatic Owner Distributions Based on Your Date and Amount Preferences

Accounting with context to ensure accurate and reasonable charges.

Most PM firms treat accounting as data entry. We empower our accountants with context, knowledge, and technology to act as the gatekeeper before money goes out.

AI Checks to Prevent Double Charges and Ensure Accurate Entry
Automatic Reconciliation & Error Flagging
AI Comparison With Other Expenses to Ensure Reasonable Charges
Live Income, Expense, and NOI Review in the Owner Portal
T12/BS/CFS/GL Categorized and Tax-Ready for Your CPA
