Erik Egelko, Commercial Property Manager in San Diego

Erik Egelko

Owner & Founder • San Diego Real Estate Investor

I started Palm Tree Properties because I own commercial real estate in San Diego myself, and I got tired of hiring managers who operated on autopilot. So I built a company that manages proactively. When you work with us, you work with me directly. I'll know your property, your tenants, and your investment goals. That's the kind of management I'd want for my own portfolio, and it's what I deliver to every client.

Common Questions

How do I switch from my current property manager? +
We handle the entire transition for you. We contact your current company, notify your tenants, and transfer all documentation and records. Most commercial transitions are completed in one to two weeks. All you need to do is sign our management agreement.
We manage retail, office, industrial, and mixed-use properties across San Diego County. Whether you own a single-tenant building or a multi-tenant complex, we tailor our management approach to your property type and investment goals.
Commercial management involves more complex lease structures (NNN, modified gross, full service), CAM reconciliation, tenant improvement coordination, and regulatory compliance. We bring specialized expertise in all of these areas to protect your investment and maximize returns.
We proactively track every lease expiration, renewal option, and scheduled rent escalation. We begin renewal conversations early, conduct market analysis to support negotiations, and ensure every increase is enforced on schedule. Nothing falls through the cracks.
It's a 15-minute conversation. You tell me about your property and what's been frustrating you, and I'll explain how we'd manage things differently. If we're a good fit, great. If not, no hard feelings. There's no sales pitch.
