Service Menu (South Bay Property Management)

Here’s a short, plain-English look at the core services we deliver to owners across San Jose, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Milpitas, Cupertino, Los Gatos, Campbell, Morgan Hill, Gilroy, Palo Alto, Saratoga, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, and more.

1) Marketing & Leasing

We list your home on major sites, take quality photos, and answer questions fast. Showings are scheduled to fit qualified renters’ time windows. The goal is simple: fill the home quickly with a great resident.

2) Tenant Screening

We screen for income, credit, rental history, and past issues. We verify what applicants tell us and follow Fair Housing rules at every step.

3) Lease Drafting & e-Signing

Leases are clear and state-compliant. We use secure e-signing so everyone gets a clean, time-stamped copy.

4) Rent Collection & Owner Payments

Residents can pay online (ACH, debit, credit). If rent is late, we follow a written process that is firm and fair. Owners are paid on a consistent schedule with a simple statement.

5) Maintenance & Repairs

Residents submit requests online or by phone. We triage urgent issues 24/7 and schedule licensed vendors for repairs. You see the work order, the quote, and the invoice.

6) Regular Inspections

We inspect at move-in, mid-lease, and move-out. This protects your home and helps catch small issues before they grow.

7) Renewals & Resident Care

As leases near the end, we review market rent, share options, and handle the paperwork. Happy residents tend to stay, and that cuts vacancy time.

8) Compliance & Local Rules

We follow state and city rules that affect landlords and residents. In San José, some homes may be covered by local ordinances.

9) Reporting, Taxes & Owner Portal

You get monthly statements, year-end tax docs, and on-demand reports in your owner portal. It’s all in one place, so it’s easy to track income and costs.

10) Eviction Coordination (If Needed)

Most residents pay and care for the home. If an eviction becomes necessary, we coordinate the steps with legal professionals and communicate clearly with you.

What Local Owners & Tenants Say

Feature stories highlighting faster leasing, clear communication, and maintenance responsiveness.

  • “Angel Zapien was truly a real professional from start to finish. I first set up a meeting in person to talk about my expectations regarding a move I wanted to make. I gave all my information and he said he would call me in a couple of weeks. He did just that. He asked had I thought about what I wanted to do regarding my move. I had decided, so we set up a date to start looking for a rental property that would fit my needs. We set up a date and time for me to begin my search. Two weeks later he had four places to look at. The drive was about fifty minutes away. It would take up most of his day. He never complained, and had a great sense of humor. We drove to all four places that he had picked out. I fell in love with the very first property but he insisted I look at the other rentals, before I decided. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Angel listened to my wants. And never pushed me. I felt he wanted me to be happy with my choice. He guided me and had exceptional knowledge about the whole rental experience. Thank you for the opportunity to share with you all about my amazing experience with Angel Zapien.”
