Commercial & Mixed-Use Property Management in San Francisco

Management for commercial and mixed-use buildings — ground-floor retail with apartments above, small office, and neighborhood commercial.

Why owners hand us this property

Mixed-use is a San Francisco specialty — and a compliance puzzle, blending commercial leasing with residential rent-control rules in one building. The Housing Guild manages both sides under one roof: commercial lease administration, CAM, and tenant relations alongside fully compliant residential management.

What we handle

Commercial lease admin

Lease abstracting, CAM reconciliations, rent escalations, and renewals handled professionally.

Mixed-use compliance

Residential units above retail follow rent-control and just-cause rules — we keep both sides of the building compliant.

Tenant retention

Responsive management that keeps quality commercial and residential tenants in place and renewing.

Capital & vendor oversight

Coordinated maintenance, improvements, and vendor management across the whole building.
