Sunset Property Co.
About

A quieter property company, on the Eastside.

We're nine people in an office on Sunset Boulevard, managing 180-some doors across Los Angeles for owners we know by first name.

Story

Why we started.

Sunset Property Co. started in 2014 with three doors and a spreadsheet. Maya was a real estate agent who kept getting asked by clients to "just manage it for me," and Theo had spent five years inside a national management firm watching small portfolios get swallowed by the same playbook built for 800-unit assets.

The bet was simple: the in-between owner — somebody with a duplex they inherited, or a fourplex they bought during the recession, or a courtyard building they're slowly restoring — deserved the same thoughtfulness that a Class-A asset manager gets, and shouldn't have to run their own books to get it.

Twelve years later, that bet still works. Most of our owners came to us because a friend forwarded them our monthly statement and said "look at this, it's actually readable." We're still small, on purpose. We'd rather be the right firm for 200 doors than a forgettable one for 2,000.

03

Same humans

Same property manager for the life of your contract. We answer our own phones.
