San Juan Capistrano Property Management

San Juan Capistrano is home to Mission San Juan Capistrano, founded in 1776, whose Serra Chapel is the oldest in-use building in California; the city's swallows, which migrate to Goya, Argentina each fall and return each spring, are tied to local tradition. I-5 bisects the city, SR-74 (Ortega Highway) begins here, and the San Juan Capistrano train station serves both Amtrak and Metrolink a block from the Mission, near the restored adobes of the Los Rios Historic District.

San Juan Capistrano's housing runs from historic single-family homes near downtown to larger equestrian and hillside properties, with a small tourist-oriented retail base near the Mission. We manage both with weekly vacancy pricing reviews, documented at-cost maintenance, monthly reporting, and CAM administration for retail owners.

Management is a flat 7% of collected rent with a $100 monthly minimum — residential and commercial, regardless of the property’s condition when we take it over. There are no onboarding fees, no maintenance markups, and no fees on rent we don’t collect.

Residential tenant placement is 30% of the first month’s rent, the annual inspection is $100 per unit, and residential lease renewals carry no separate fee. New commercial leases are 3% of total lease value, with renewals at 1%. Every fee we charge is published on our pricing page.

You set a repair-authorization threshold at onboarding — the level of spending that requires your sign-off — and everything below it, we just handle. Maintenance expenses are passed through at cost, never marked up, and emergency work can proceed when needed to protect occupants or prevent further damage.

Larger repairs and capital projects get a defined scope, budget, and approval step before work begins, with no project-oversight fee. Tenants submit requests with photos through the resident portal, and every work order is tracked from submission through completion.
