Multifamily & Apartment Property Management in San Francisco

Full-service management for apartment communities and multifamily buildings — 5 to 100+ units — across San Francisco and the Peninsula.

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.

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 reporting & accounting

Monthly owner statements, direct-deposit distributions, and year-end 1099s 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 communities across San Francisco and the Peninsula.
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 — plus a rental analysis showing what your property should earn at market rent. No hidden charges.

San Francisco and the Peninsula — including Menlo Park, Redwood City, Palo Alto, Los Altos, Atherton, San Mateo, and Burlingame.
How do I get started?
Request a proposal or call (415) 625-0000. We'll review your property, send a management proposal and rental analysis, and — if it's a fit — take over onboarding end to end, including any existing tenancy.
