San Francisco Property Management
Local Experts, Not a Distant Call Center
San Francisco is a single city and county, and the most heavily regulated rental market in the state. Rent control under the Rent Ordinance, just cause eviction protections and a dense body of local rules mean that what you can do as an owner here is defined by ordinance long before it is defined by the market.
Whether a unit is covered by rent control, and what that means for increases and tenancy, is the first question on any San Francisco property. We establish that before anything is listed, because getting it wrong is expensive and difficult to unwind.
California's AB 1482 caps most annual rent increases and requires just cause for many evictions, and some cities add stricter local ordinances on top. We check which rules apply to your specific property before any increase or notice goes out, because the exemptions are narrower than most owners assume.
Lawrence Zuniga covers the bay shoreline and the Peninsula north of San Carlos from our Saratoga office, so you deal with one named manager rather than a ticket queue. Owners get a real-time portal, online rent collection, a maintenance line answered every day of the year and itemized statements. Careful screening is why our eviction rate stays under 1% on placed tenants.
We would rather price your actual home than quote you an area average.
Published averages for San Francisco blend apartments, townhouses and detached homes across neighbourhoods that rent nothing alike, so they are a poor guide to any single property. What your home earns depends on its San Francisco County location, condition, layout, parking, school assignment and what else is on the market the week you list.
A free rental analysis gives you a defensible number for your address: recent comparable leases, a realistic days-on-market expectation and the two or three changes most likely to move the figure. No obligation.

What makes San Francisco a place renters want to stay.
San Francisco Unified School District serves the city, with an assignment system families research carefully. Golden Gate Park, the Presidio and Lands End give the city substantial public space, and Muni Metro, BART and the cable cars make most of it genuinely car-optional. The restaurant scene, the museums and the proximity of ocean, bay and hills are why tenants pay what they pay here.
Muni Metro and BART serve the city, with Caltrain terminating at Fourth and King. The Bay Bridge and the Golden Gate Bridge handle the driving, and parking is a genuine constraint almost everywhere.
No obligation, no cost

Common questions from San Francisco owners, answered plainly.
It depends on the home, not the area. Location within San Francisco County, condition, parking, school assignment and what else is listed that week move the number more than any published average. A free rental analysis prices your specific address against recent comparable leases.
A well-priced, professionally marketed home usually leases in weeks rather than months. Pricing ahead of the market is the most common reason a good home sits, and it costs more in vacancy than the extra rent would ever have returned.
Credit, income, background and rental history on every applicant, with leases that comply with California and federal fair housing law. That discipline is why our eviction rate stays under 1% on placed tenants.
California's AB 1482 caps most annual rent increases and requires just cause for many evictions, and some cities add stricter local ordinances on top. We check which rules apply to your specific property before any increase or notice goes out, because the exemptions are narrower than most owners assume.
Associations set their own rules on leasing, minimum terms, parking and approvals, and they differ from one community to the next. We read the governing documents before listing and tell you upfront if anything in them will materially affect how quickly you can place a tenant.
