Advantage Property Management Services (APMS) is a leading provider of property management services in Alameda County and Contra Costa County. We specialize in residential single-family homes, duplexes, tri-plexes, four-plexes, and apartments under 50 units. Our goal is to deliver a unique real estate investing experience to our clients, ensuring that they can be true real estate investors and not just landlords. The APMS owners have been investing and managing rental properties for over a decade and understand the real estate investor mentality. We treat your rental property as if it were one of our own investment properties.

Our Property Management Experience

APMS is not your typical property management company. We do all the work for you, and if it's related to your rental property, we will take care of it. Our clients love us because they can be true real estate investors and not have to worry about the day-to-day management of their properties. We have reviewed every component of the property management process and found ways to deliver better service and better results. Unlike traditional property management companies who co-manage properties with you, APMS does all the work for you. We have a unique approach to property management and strive to provide the best possible service to our clients.

Why Choose APMS

At APMS, we understand that turning over your rental property to the care of a new property manager can be an emotional and frightening experience. You have to be able to trust your property manager so that you won't be worrying about your property. Our goal is to earn your trust and manage your property to the best of our ability. We understand that we are not a perfect fit for every property owner, especially owners who want to be involved in the day-to-day management. However, if you believe we are the best match for you, we would love the chance to earn your trust and manage your property.
