I am extremely grateful to Cornerstone Managing Partners. They helped put our building in downtown San Diego back together after a catastrophic flood forced the 6-week evacuation of all 113 units. No amount of preparation could prepare a volunteer board for the hundreds of serious decisions that had to be made to repair the damage. We were fortunate to be referred to Tom Brooks and his Cornerstone team. Tom’s reputation, knowledge and unwavering persistence literally saved our association hundreds of thousands of dollars that would have otherwise been left on the table. On behalf of the Diamond Terrace community, thank you! If you are a potential customer reading this review, do yourself a favor and look no further. Whatever your problem, Cornerstone is your solution. Tom and his team are the best in the business.

Your team was particularly skillful in dealing with any problems that arose with the contracting firms performing work in the units. Cornerstone Managing Partners always represented our best interests and held the contractors accountable for any missteps.
