Francis Taylor Properties

Francis Taylor Properties is a residential property management and real estate firm in Escondido, led by brokers Ed and Susan Swauger since 2002. For owners of rental homes, the company handles marketing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance coordination, financial reporting and eviction matters. It also helps clients buy and sell homes.

Owners can request a free rental analysis to see what a property might rent for. The company says it never marks up maintenance invoices, so owners pay the vendor's actual cost. Tenants pay rent and submit maintenance requests through online portals. Its property managers live and work in North County San Diego, and it serves areas from Oceanside and Carlsbad to San Diego and Fallbrook.
