Established 2002
A Legacy of
Exceptional Rentals
Shankman Properties was founded in July 2002 with one clear mission: to offer Newport Beach residents a rental experience defined by quality, trust, and personalized care. What began as a modest portfolio has grown into one of the most respected rental management firms on the Orange County coast.
At the heart of everything we do is Barbara Shankman — founder, principal, and Newport Beach native. Her hands-on approach ensures every tenant feels truly at home from day one. With over 200 satisfied tenants and 12 premium properties across Newport Beach, our commitment to excellence has never wavered.
