One stop shop!

What’s not to like with Joseph Ellen Property management. We live out of state and if/when unfortunate events arise, we are quickly notified, a solution is in the process of being implemented, and we get to sit back and relax. The group is super attentive to any needs we might have and their monthly reporting is accurate and timely. On top of that, I consider Melody a friend! Can’t ask for anything else in a management group. A++

Joseph Ellen Properties is fantastic

Joseph Ellen Property Management is handsdown the best pm we have worked with in Duval county. Our first two property managers were lacking, so we were very pleased when we found JE. Andrew and the team are fantastic communicators, very proactive in addressing concerns, and fairly priced. We have been very pleased.

Best STR property management company in JAX

It’s been a great experience working with Andrew and Melody. They are wonderful, professional and tasteful staging my property for short term rental. From the beginning, it’s been super smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend them to whoever wants to hire them managing their STR.

Responsive & reliable STR PM

Joseph Ellen has managed our Jax Beach property since 2021 and we could not be more pleased. We have been impressed with their responsiveness to both us and our guests, and their ability to quickly resolve problems as they arise. They are able to keep our STR nearly fully occupied and we haven't had any major issues. We strongly recommend them for short term rentals in NE Florida.

Great team and great service!

Andrew & Melody have built an incredible short term rental management business. It not only shows with their growth but the team they’ve built to scale the demand they have in the market. They manage several properties for me and I have peace of mind knowing that they take care of the properties as if it’s their own.

Outstanding property management

Very well managed company. Professional, hard-working owners focused on both top quality and top notch customer support. Creative, beautiful property interior design and effectuve customer-centered property management combined make for one of the best property management companies nationally that I've worked with.

Partnership is more than a label

I was completely new to short-term rentals, but Andrew and Melody reassured me, saying, 'No problem, we got you!' All I had to do was provide a beautiful house. They took care of everything—design, layout, photography, marketing—got it listed on all major platforms, and maintained an occupancy rate of 85% or higher since the very first guest. I never have to worry about bookings or even small details like batteries. They offer full-service, done-for-you short-term rental management, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. You shouldn’t either!

Trusted Property Management Company

Andrew and the team at Joseph Ellen Properties have been managing our rental property for close to 3 years. They are professional in how they interact with us as owners and also the guests who select to stay. Always quick to respond and alert us to any issues. Would recommend them as a property management group.
