San Francisco & Peninsula · Since 1977
The Housing Guild manages San Francisco Bay Area rental property for owners — single-family homes, condos, multifamily buildings, and commercial & mixed-use. More income, less hassle, full compliance.
Trusted since 1977
We work for the owner — maximizing income, minimizing vacancy, and keeping every building compliant with the Bay Area's complex rental laws.
The Housing Guild is a member in good standing of the associations that set the standard for Bay Area property management — the San Francisco Apartment Association, California Apartment Association, PPMA, AOAC, and the SF & California Associations of Realtors.

Property managementHow it works
From first call to steady monthly income — a clear, hands-off path for owners.
Step 1
Tell us about your property. We assess it, quote a management fee, and show you what it should earn at market rent.
Step 2
We syndicate across 55+ listing sites, show the unit, screen applicants, and execute a compliant lease.
Step 3
Rent collection, maintenance, 24/7 emergencies, compliance, and tenant relations — handled, so you don't field the calls.
Step 4
Direct-deposit distributions with clear monthly statements and year-end 1099s through your owner portal.
The Housing Guild has managed San Francisco and Peninsula rental property since 1977. We are large enough to run professional systems — online owner portals, direct-deposit rent, syndicated marketing across 55+ listing sites — and small enough that you deal with people who know your building.
Owners hire us to do three things: keep the property leased at market rent, keep it compliant with the Bay Area's complex rental laws, and keep it maintained so it holds its value. Learn about our team

What stood out was how seamless they made the whole process.”
“I recently lost my key and contacted The Housing Guild for a replacement. Vicki said she would drop off a key — within the hour she dropped it off and checked it with me to make sure it worked. I was impressed with her promptness and courteous personality.”
