Commercial & Mixed-Use Property Management in San Mateo

Commercial & Mixed-Use property management in San Mateo — leasing, rent collection, maintenance, and compliance for local owners.

Commercial & Mixed-Use management, in San Mateo

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.

In San Mateo that means residential and multifamily across the city — managed by a local team that knows AB 1482 and San Mateo County rules. The Housing Guild has managed Bay Area rental property since 1977; whether you live near your San Mateo property or across the country, we run it as a professionally managed asset.
