Protecting San Francisco Owners from Eviction

When Gordon Property Management is responsible for placing your tenants, evictions are rare. But, bad things can sometimes happen to good tenants, and we may find ourselves in the position that we have to evict your resident for nonpayment of rent or a lease violation.

In these cases, we’ll work closely with an experienced attorney to make sure the eviction is handled professionally, correctly, and in as little time as possible. If you work with us, you can trust that you’re getting property management San Francisco investors have relied on to handle these types of situations since 1987.

Evictions are Rare Because We Screen Thoroughly

Why is our eviction rate so low? Because at Gordon Property Management, we are rigorous with our screening practices. We also develop and maintain outstanding professional relationships with our residents. Even during the ongoing COVID-19 catastrophe, we are in contact with our tenants regularly and working through economic uncertainties and eviction moratoriums. It’s an easier process for us than it is for other landlords because our tenants trust us, and we trust them. That leads to fewer evictions and less money lost for owners.

Our tenant screening process is almost eviction-proof because we look at credit, income, and rental history. We make sure your residents have a long and verifiable history of paying rent on time. We search national eviction records. It’s about protecting your property and eliminating risk.

Doing a little extra work before we place a tenant means we have less work to do in the long term. It means we don’t have to chase down late rent or send Pay or Quit notices every month. We can help our owners avoid court costs and legal fees. If you want to avoid evictions in your rental property, make sure you’re working with a San Francisco property management company like Gordon Property Management, where removing tenants is rare.

Just Cause Evictions in San Francisco: Removing Bad Tenants

In order to remove a tenant from a rental unit in San Francisco you need to meet one of the just causes specified in the San Francisco Rent Ordinance.
