Efforts are focused strictly on residential property management in order to deliver consistent quality services to clients without the distraction of residential sales.

Services
Service is the most important quality in the selection of a Property Management Firm which provides prompt, straightforward, honest, courteous and professional service to the owners of rental properties.
Property Surveys - In most circumstances, once homes are leased that is the end of your knowledge regarding the condition of the property until the tenants leave the property. Our philosophy to the management of your home is radically different; too much can happen in a year if all parties are not aware of what may be occurring inside the property.
Do you allow pets in the properties that you manage? The decision to allow pets is an Owner/Client decision. If an owner is agreeable to renting to applicants with pets you will be required to pay an additional pet deposit and a Pet Agreement will be an addendum to the Lease Agreement. Under no circumstances will a pet be allowed in a leased home without prior Owner approval.

Worse property management company I have ever worked with. Always late to respond, always finding the cheapest material to work, Never really listen to the tenants, very difficult to get anything done specially if it cost money. They don't care about the tenant at all - run away from this company. I have Two properties and I've never treated my tenants the way this property management company does.

If possible I would give this company 0 stars! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! When used them as our property management company for our rental home in Concord, CA. It was our first time being landlords and thought this company could help us out. They made it sound so easy and everything would be taken care of. They lied to us on numerous occasions and didn't care about our needs or anything else other than getting their monthly money.

They are OK as long as you don't have any problems with your tenant. They are great at cashing checks. That's about it. I know that property management companies can't 100% stop bad tenants, but there are many things they can do to help. Baywide did almost nothing. The only thing I can say that they did right was help evict tenants.

They did move on that quickly, but unfortunately the damage was already done costing us thousands of dollars. PROBLEM #1 When we signed up with them they said they would do inspections of the home to make sure everything is OK. They DID NOT do this, using the excuse "they tenants didn't want us in there." Maybe this is because there was a problem? Yes, yes there was.

The tenants ended up DESTROYING our property. We could have stopped before it got too bad, Baywide didn't keep up their promise. PROBLEM #2 They were supposed to collect a pet deposit from the tenants. They never did. They said oh, the tenants didn't have a pet. Guess what, . they had several cats! Which led to massive damage to the home.

If they had done inspections like promised in problem 1, they would have figured this out. PROBLEM #3 We were charged a gutter cleaning fee one month. They said they require this for all their properties. They have a company that comes and does this for everyone. Guess what. the house didn't have gutters. What were we charged for. There were many more, but these were major problems.

I would not recommend Baywide to anyone. I am sure the people that gave them positive reviews have been lucky enough to have good tenants. There can be great tenants out there, and maybe Baywide can find them. If you are unfortunate enough to get bad ones, watch out because Baywide won't help you much.

Scott and the Bay Wide team have been amazing thru this entire process. They have managed our condo and kept both myself and the tenant very happy. They are always on top of all things and I feel confident in the decisions they make. If your looking for a property management company, they are the way to go.

This is by far the worst experience i have ever had with a property management company. Awful customer service, awful attitude, and overall lacking in any type of knowledge that could be benificial to one who is looking to rent their property

I'm very pleased with my decision to have Bay Wide Properties manage my property. I must say, being a landlord was not an aspiration of mine, but today's housing market made this a reality. Hiring Bay Wide has saved me enormous amounts time and stress. Their customer service is fantastic. They are extremely responsive and always timely with their reporting. It will also make tax season much easier this year. Money well spent!

I can speak for myself only, but I have to say that based on my experience, Bay Wide is a really good property management company. It has managed a residential property for me for more than a decade, and has been very responsive and done a really great job of resolving some issues and problems that have come up. My experiences with Derek have all been extremely positive.

I agree with Scott. Hands down the worst property management company I have ever seen. Left me with a vacancy for several months, hired an out of town roofer who charged $ 10,000 to fix a roof that is stiil leaking. I could go on and on but quite frankly Derek is not worth the time. As Scott B said in his review. RUN!

Scott and the team at Bay Wide are the best. We moved from Danville to the OC last October, and Bay Wide not only found us tenants for our house in Danville within a week of our move, but has made being a long-distance landlord completely painless. They even went an extra mile for us recently when we thought we might be moving back to the Bay Area, and started scouting homes to try and get our kids back into the same school district. I wholeheartedly recommend them, and would be willing to talk to anyone who has questions about them.

I have utilized the BWP management team for the last five years, most recently to find a new tenant for my property after the tenant unexpectedly broke their lease due to the economic downturn. During that time the majority of my contact has been with Derek, with additional interactions with Jennifer and Scott. Overall I have been very happy with the service I have received.

The management team appears to make great use of the internet and networks effectively with local real estate professionals for quick tenant placement. Their suggestions to me as a landlord are well thought out and reasonable, and prior tenants have reported having no problems interacting with the management staff at BWP. Good work! Recommended.

RUN AWAY! If you are considering using this company to manage your property OR will be under the management of this company you are in a for the worst experience of your life. think everything bad - then multiply by two. Derek is one of the property mangers and has one of those "i'M POWERLESS IN LIFE BUT I HAVE POWER OVER YOU" attitudes and make what could be a good company probably the worst in the bay area STAY AWAY!
