Services

As a newly formed, full-service property management company, we aim to bring a caring and professional approach to all of our customers—owners and tenants alike. Our focus on residential and mixed-use real estate in the City of San Francisco allows us to deeply understand the landlord-tenant relationship at the local level and navigate the issues that arise on a regular basis.

  • No two properties or owners are alike. Our initial consultation will include an overview of the housing market in the adjacent neighborhoods of your property, and a realistic set of financial assumptions and capital improvements.

  • Speed to market is often undervalued in our industry as its contribution to maximizing income. Your properties will be positioned to maximize exposure with high resolution photography to get reliable and responsible tenants into your units quickly.

  • Tenants are thoroughly screened before being offered rental units. Screenings include credit and background checks and reference from prior landlords. Our aim is always to ensure that properties are offered to individuals deemed most reliable and responsible.

    On an ongoing basis we act the point of contact for your tenants, fielding inquiries and resolving conflicts. As owner, you will hear from us as often, or as little, as you like, and only when issues arise to a level that necessitates additional approval or when we recommend that outside professionals be engaged.

    Should there be blatant contract nonperformance from tenants, we stand ready to engage with our network of San Francisco-based real estate attorneys to protect the assets, capital and return of our owner clients.

  • Your property will benefit from our deep list of contacts across all trades. Tenants and owners can both expect prompt communication and resolution to maintenance issues.

  • Larger projects to preserve and increase value will be assessed on a risk/return basis and planned for accordingly.

  • Owners can expect a monthly and annual statements detailing revenue and expenses as well as 1099 for tax preparation purposes.

  • Capital improvement planning results in a well-defined financial outcome. For many owners, your real estate is a significant part of your asset mix and our work together will focus on preserving and enhancing its value. A cost/benefit analysis including the ability to increase cashflow as a result of building improvements will provide the basis for collaborative decision-making.

  • Staying current on compliance filings is an important step towards maintaining current income.

  • A tiered pricing model allows you to select the level of assistance you would like when seeking a reliable partner in managing your San Francisco real estate assets.
