Overview

Abode property management

In 2012, Abode entered into a strategic alliance with Housing for Independent People, Inc. (HIP), then a San Jose nonprofit group that owned and managed affordable housing for special needs populations. More than a decade later, it is now known as Abode Property Management and it works under the Abode umbrella, furthering our mission to end homelessness by providing affordable housing.

Abode Property Management now manages more than 30 properties and provides stable housing and access to supportive services to more than 600 individuals and families throughout Santa Clara, Alameda, San Mateo, and Santa Cruz counties.

Abode Property Management has more than three decades of experience providing property management services for affordable housing — serving low-income, homeless, disabled, veterans, and other special needs households. We manage a diverse array of property types, including scattered site supportive housing, single-family homes, four-plexes, shared housing, hotel/transitional housing, interim housing, multifamily housing, and master-leased housing.

Management Expertise

Our innovative management services — which include on-site management, compliance monitoring, and accounting assistance — are packaged to assist our clients and help them maximize the value of their assets. Recognizing that each of our clients is unique, we offer our management services separately so that our clients can make choices that can be customized to meet their individual needs. Those management services include:

Leasing, screening, and marketing
Legal and regulatory compliance monitoring
Routine and preventive maintenance
Specialized accounting services and financial reports
Management consultation
Property inspections and condition reports
