Hammett Properties in La Mesa Village has operated as a real estate investment brokerage and property management firm from La Mesa Boulevard since 1973. The company's DRE broker license (No. 00452237) covers both residential and commercial transactions, and its management portfolio spans La Mesa, North Park, Normal Heights, Lemon Grove, and broader East County — a geographic reach that intersects the estate and trust planning handled by East County Estate Planning, PC. A full-time maintenance staff handles tenant repair requests and unit turnover preparation in-house rather than subcontracting routine work. Investment property owners in the portfolio rely on rental market analysis, lease administration, and annual tax-document coordination with accounting firms like Block Advisors. The brokerage's highest-value transactions involve multi-unit residential acquisitions requiring 1031 exchange structuring, market-rate rent comps, and capital expenditure underwriting across San Diego County's investment-grade corridors.
