Full property management, or tenant placement only. Either way you work with a licensed property manager whose name and direct line you know, not a call center.

Two ways to work with us

Both begin with the same rental analysis. The difference is what happens after your resident moves in.

Ongoing management

Full property management

Best for: owners who want us to run the rental after move-in.

  • Rental analysis, priced from our own North Bay portfolio
  • Photography and listing on the major rental networks
  • Showings hosted in person by your manager
  • Applicant screening against written criteria
  • Lease preparation and move-in documentation
After move-inWe collect rent, handle resident communication and maintenance with established local vendors, and send a monthly statement with your direct deposit. Every document is in your owner portal.

Fee One management fee on collected rent, plus a leasing fee when we place a resident. Both quoted in your rental analysis and put in writing before you sign.

Not sure which fits? Choose “Not sure yet” on the form and your manager will talk it through with you.

How it starts

1. Rental analysis

Tell us about the property. A licensed manager walks it, prices it from what our own portfolio actually leases for, and tells you what it needs and what we charge. No obligation, and if we are not the right fit we will say so.

2. Make-ready and leasing

We photograph the home, list it here and on the major rental networks, host every showing in person, and screen each adult applicant against written criteria: income, rental history, credit where permitted, and references.

3. Then, depending on your service

Full managementRent lands in your account with a monthly statement. Maintenance is coordinated by your manager, within an approval limit agreed with you in writing.

Tenant placementYou receive the signed lease and move-in file, and take it from there.

Knowledge · compliance · stewardship

Clear guidance in a changing rental landscape.

Renting out a home has become more complex, and the rules keep changing. Our managers stay current, turn the requirements into disciplined day-to-day practice, and look ahead for avoidable risk. The goal is not simply to collect rent: it is to support compliance, care for the asset, give residents a good experience, and position the home thoughtfully in the North Bay market.

Rental law, tracked

Federal, California, and local requirements that apply to your property, with the sources cited.

Rental law reference

The right specialist, early

When a question calls for legal, tax, or insurance advice, we say so early and help you involve the right professional.

Our property managers

Questions owners ask us first

How management fees work

One management fee on collected rent and one leasing fee when we place a resident, both in writing before you sign anything. The management fee applies only to rent we actually collect.

How fast will my property lease?

That depends on the home, the season, and how it is priced, and an average would tell you very little about your property. A licensed manager walks it, prices it from what our own North Bay portfolio is leasing for rather than a national estimate, and gives you a timeline with the reasons attached. Your rental analysis includes that conversation.

Who answers when something breaks?

Residents submit requests through the portal any time of day, your manager dispatches urgent issues first, and the work shows up documented on your statement with the invoice attached.

What does the monthly statement look like?

Rent collected, any maintenance with invoices attached, our fee, and your disbursement, laid out so your tax preparer has what they need at filing time. Every statement is in the owner portal whenever you want it.

Longer answers, from what management includes to lease-end and turnover, are in the owner FAQ.
