Multifamily & Apartment Property Management in San Francisco

Full-service management for apartment buildings — 5 to 100+ units — across San Francisco and the Bay Area, by a family business that has cared for buildings like yours since 1977.

Why owners hand us this property

Running an apartment building is a full-time operation: turnovers, rent-controlled units, maintenance vendors, compliance, and owner reporting. The Housing Guild has managed Bay Area multifamily since 1977. We keep your building full, compliant, and cash-flowing — and give you one point of contact instead of a dozen. Many of our owners ran their building themselves for decades before calling us; now the late-night calls come to us instead.

What we handle

Lease-up & low vacancy

Aggressive marketing across 55+ syndicated listing sites, professional showings, and tenant screening to keep units filled at market rent.

Rent-control expertise

SF Rent Ordinance, AB 1482, and allowable annual increases handled correctly — the single biggest risk area for Bay Area apartment owners.

Maintenance at scale

Vetted vendor network, preventive maintenance schedules, and 24/7 emergency response that protects your asset and your NOI.

Owner draws & reporting

Owner draws by direct deposit, detailed monthly reports, and year-end 1099s — full visibility into your building through your online owner portal.

Questions from owners

How many units do you manage per building?
We manage everything from 5-unit buildings to 100+ unit apartment buildings across the San Francisco Bay Area.
Do you handle rent-controlled buildings?
Yes. Rent-controlled and AB 1482-covered buildings are a core part of what we do — we track allowable increases, banking, and passthroughs so owners stay compliant.
How much do you charge to manage my property?
Our management fee depends on the property type, number of units, and scope. Request a free proposal and we'll send a clear, itemized quote after we understand your building. No hidden charges.
What does full-service management include?
Marketing and leasing across 55+ listing sites, tenant screening, lease execution, rent collection, 24/7 maintenance coordination, inspections, owner accounting with detailed monthly reports and owner draws by direct deposit, and full compliance with the SF Rent Ordinance and AB 1482.
How do owner draws and reporting work?
Rent is collected online and your owner draw is sent by direct deposit each month, together with a detailed report on income, expenses, and what is happening at the building. Year-end 1099s and every statement live in your online owner portal.
What areas do you serve?
San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Marin counties — including Burlingame, San Mateo, Redwood City, Menlo Park, Atherton, Palo Alto, Los Altos, San Rafael, and Mill Valley.
How do I get started?
Request a proposal, or call or text Ryan at (415) 683-1231. We'll learn about your building, send a management proposal, and — if we're a good fit for each other — handle the transition end to end, including your existing tenants.
