For Owners

Gordon Property Management has managed single family homes and multi-unit residential apartment buildings in San Francisco since 1987. We’re dedicated to providing owners and tenants with excellent customer service.

Our high standards and industry leadership set us apart from other management companies in San Francisco.

Better Leasing

Decrease your vacancy times and place stellar tenants with our strategic marketing plans and rigorous tenant screening. Our leasing experts will have your property professionally photographed, advertised on the most important rental websites, and shown to prospective tenants. We will consistently and thoroughly review each application, handling the leasing process from the first inquiry to the contract signing.

Better Maintenance

Regular inspection surveys allow us to ensure that your tenants are following the terms of their lease and taking care of the property. We’re proactive when it comes to maintenance. Our maintenance staff and our reliable network of vendors will ensure any repairs are timely, efficient, and done right the first time.

Better Protection

In California, landlords and property owners face increasing liability risks. We are
very knowledgeable of the numerous local, state, and federal laws which affect the rental housing industry. We keep up with changes to the San Francisco Rent Control Ordinance, California state housing laws and Federal Fair Housing regulations.

All our employees have completed the San Francisco’s Apartment Association CCRM courses, which covers San Francisco’s Rent Control Ordinance, fair housing laws, and essential landlord/tenant best practices. The San Francisco Rent Control Ordinance has unfortunately turned the landlord/tenant relationship into something that’s potentially adversarial. It doesn’t have to be that way, and while some tenants can be a challenge – we believe in treating everyone fairly and consistently so your experience as a landlord is positive and profitable.

The best property management company that I know of. Very responsive, knowledgeable and proactive. The staff stays up to date on San Francisco rental issues: a very important thing. GPM uses current technology to field tenant’s concerns, receive rents, and schedule projects. Monthly accounting reports are outstanding! They work seamlessly with me as an owner on problems and projects. I can sleep at night knowing Gordon Property Management is taking care of my properties!

Gordon Property Management took care of us for years, whenever we needed maintenance or a leak became an issue they were they for us. Even when the public began to encroach on our private parking carports they supported us. They are a great company and wonderful to have had as landlords.

I was minutes away from leaving for a week long work trip and my smoke detector went off. It would not stop. It had to be disabled so it was no longer protecting my apartment. I logged my maintenance request and the team at Gordon got someone out by 10:00am that day and had a new detector installed. So efficient. Love this group!

RENT DUE: All rents are due on the first day of the month. Some of our leases have a grace period. Any rent not received by 5:00 PM on the last day of the grace period is considered late and will incur a late fee. Rents can be paid on line, mailed to us, or dropped off at our office. There is a secure mail slot to the far right of our front door where rents can be dropped off 24/7.

LATE RENT: Any rent not received by 5:00 PM on the last day of the grace period (if any) is late and a late fee of 5% will be charged. Personal checks are not accepted after the 5th of the month. If your rent is late it must be paid with a cashier’s check or money order (payable to Gordon Property Management) and must include the late fee.

BOUNCED CHECKS: If your check is returned by the bank for non-sufficient funds, or for any reason, you will be charged a retuned check fee of $40.00 PLUS the late fee of 5%. Replacement checks must be paid with a cashier’s check or money order and must include the NSF fee and the late fee. Personal checks will not be accepted by any tenant who has had two checks returned by the bank.

AUTOMATIC PAYMENTS: If you choose, you can arrange for an automatic payment with your bank. You can also make online rent payments via our Online Tenant Portal. Click here to PAY RENT ONLINE NOW.

MOVING OUT: You must give 30 days written notice of your intent to move out. Once we receive your notice we will send you a move out packet with information regarding the pre-move out inspection and cleaning instructions.

MAINTENANCE REQUESTS: All requests for maintenance and repairs must be made through the TENANT PORTAL. You must give us permission to use our keys for entry or you must be home to let the repair person in.

After business hours, evenings and weekends we can only accommodate emergency repairs which are generally limited to plumbing emergencies and you will have to be home to meet the repair person. For after hour emergencies please call the office (415 554-8812) and our answering service will be able to assist you.

PLUMBING: Gordon Property Management will cover the cost of most plumbing repairs, however you should be aware that we do not cover the costs of repairs that are due to a tenants’ negligence or lack of care.

GARBAGE DISPOSALS: Gordon Property Management will not pay to clear jammed or frozen garbage disposals. This is the most common type of maintenance request and is almost always caused by misuse or overuse of the garbage disposal. They are delicate machines and are not intended to grind up many kinds of foods or a large volume of food. Use the garbage disposal at your own risk!

LOCKOUTS: If you lock yourself out of your apartment you will have to call a locksmith at your own expense.

EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE REQUESTS: For emergency repairs you may call the office (415) 554-8812 and then follow up by completing the form or logging into the portal.

After hour emergencies please call our answering service at (415) 554-8812.

Income documentation includes copies of your most recent paystubs, offer letters or tax returns. We will not begin working on your application until we receive all of these items.

Qualifying For An Apartment

INCOME:
In order to rent an apartment or home from Gordon Property Management applicants must be able to show that their monthly income is equal to or greater than 3 1/2 times the monthly rent. We consider all verifiable income of all applicants in the household. Self-employed persons may need to submit tax returns and / or bank statements. Students who are receiving parental support will need to have their parents qualify and sign a rent guarantee.

CREDIT REPORTS:
The credit report is one of several factors we use in evaluating a tenant. Although a high credit rating is preferable, we recognize that many potentially great tenants have had credit problems in the past. If your credit history is less than ideal please tell us why.

REFERENCES:
We will contact your current and your former landlord for references. The rental reference is an extremely important factor in evaluating prospective tenants, so make sure your application includes accurate phone numbers for your current and former landlord.

PETS:
Some of our properties are willing to consider pets and some will not. If we are able to consider pets our ads will clearly state that pets are negotiable. Cats must be spayed or neutered and in some cases they must be indoor cats. Dogs must be at least two years old and we must be able to either meet the dog or get references for the dog. Read our pet agreement carefully and make sure you are willing to comply with the terms of the pet agreement.

SELECTION PROCESS:
Selecting a tenant from several qualified applicants is not easy. We use all of the above factors in combination in choosing a tenant. We will offer the unit to the first qualified applicant to submit a complete application, with the following exceptions: 1) Applicants who offer over the asking price will be given priority consideration and applicants who offer less than the asking price will be considered after those offering full price or more. 2)An applicant without a pet may, in some cases, be offered a unit before an applicant with one. Applications shall not be considered received until they are complete.

SIGNING A LEASE:
If you are selected for an apartment, you will have 48 hours from the time we offer you the apartment to sign the lease and pay the full security deposit. All leases are 12 month leases. The first month’s rent will be due at the start of the lease and before you are given keys to the apartment. Both the security deposit and the first months’ rent must be paid through our on line application or paid with a cashier’s check or money order (payable to Gordon Property Management). Applicant will be required to obtain a renter’s insurance policy prior to occupancy. Smoking of tobacco products is prohibited on the entire property pursuant to Article 19F of the SF Health code. However, some prior rental agreements in building are not subject to this regulation.

EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY:
We do Business in Accordance with the Fair Housing Act. (The Civil Rights Act of 1968, as amended by the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988).
