The deepest rental market in East County
Antioch is the largest city in East Contra Costa (~115,000 people), so tenant demand and rental comps run deep. We price your Antioch rental to that live market instead of guessing, which keeps vacancy short and rent competitive.
A local team, not a remote call center
Our Pittsburg office is about 5 miles from central Antioch. Showings, inspections, and repairs run through a vendor network we know by name, so response times beat out-of-area managers who dispatch from another county.
eBART commuter tenants, carefully screened
The Antioch eBART station draws reliable commuter tenants connecting to Oakland and San Francisco. We screen every applicant against the same objective credit, income, and rental-history criteria to protect your investment.

Antioch property management questions
Does Croskey manage rental properties in Antioch, CA?
Yes. Croskey Real Estate (brokerage DRE #01990430, Broker of Record Wolfgang Croskey DRE #01708438) manages detached homes, condominiums, townhomes, and multi-unit properties throughout Antioch, CA - including zip codes 94509 and 94531. Our active Antioch portfolio spans the Lone Tree Way corridor, Deer Valley, Sand Creek, Rivertown downtown, Mira Vista Hills, Gentrytown, Hillcrest Avenue, and the Somersville Road area. Management services include tenant placement, income verification and credit screening, on-time rent collection, bi-annual condition assessments, and maintenance coordination through a vetted local vendor network. Antioch is the largest city in East Contra Costa County at approximately 115,000 residents, and our Pittsburg office at 745 Railroad Ave is approximately 5 miles from central Antioch - giving us local-level response and same-day vendor access without the overhead of a franchise or remote call center. We have managed East Contra Costa rentals since 2005.
How much does property management cost in Antioch, CA?
Croskey Real Estate charges management fees from 8% of monthly collected rent for full-service property management in Antioch, CA. The management fee covers rent collection, tenant communication, maintenance coordination, bi-annual property condition assessments, and monthly owner reporting. A separate lease-only placement option is available for owners who self-manage day-to-day but want professional tenant screening and lease execution. For a typical Antioch rental - a 3-bedroom detached home renting for $2,300 to $2,800 per month - a fee from 8% means management costs of approximately $184 to $224 per month. Custom pricing is provided after we review your specific Antioch property, its current rent or market rent range, and the service level that fits your ownership goals. Call (925) 336-3282 or email info@croskeyrealestate.com for a free consultation. There is no obligation and no upfront cost to get a quote.
What is the rental market like in Antioch, CA?
Antioch is the largest city in East Contra Costa County, CA, with a population of approximately 115,000 and one of the region's most active rental markets across zip codes 94509 and 94531. The 2018 eBART extension brought BART service directly to the Antioch station, connecting tenants to Oakland and San Francisco and significantly boosting demand from Bay Area commuters. A 3-bedroom single-family home in Antioch typically rents for $2,300 to $2,800 per month depending on neighborhood, condition, and proximity to the eBART corridor. The city's rental supply spans established detached-home subdivisions in Deer Valley and Lone Tree Valley, waterfront-adjacent properties near the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, and newer construction along Sand Creek. Antioch's relative affordability compared to closer-in Bay Area cities, combined with direct BART access, sustains consistent year-round tenant demand across all property types.
What zip codes does Croskey cover in Antioch?
Croskey Real Estate manages rental properties across both Antioch zip codes: 94509 and 94531. Zip code 94509 covers the western portion of Antioch, including the historic Rivertown district along the San Joaquin River, the Somersville Road corridor, Downtown Antioch, Hillcrest Avenue neighborhoods, and established areas near Sutter Delta Medical Center. Zip code 94531 covers eastern and newer Antioch, including Lone Tree Valley, Deer Valley, Sand Creek developments, Mira Vista Hills, Gentrytown, and areas adjacent to Antioch eBART. Both zip codes are within our standard service area, covered by the same management team, the same vendor network, and the same bi-annual condition assessment schedule we apply across our full portfolio of approximately 250 doors in East Contra Costa County. Coverage is comprehensive - there are no sub-areas within Antioch that we exclude.
What neighborhoods in Antioch does Croskey serve?
Croskey Real Estate (DRE #01990430) manages rental properties across all Antioch neighborhoods in zip codes 94509 and 94531. In western Antioch (94509): the historic Rivertown district near the San Joaquin River, the Somersville Road area, Hillcrest Avenue, Gentrytown, and neighborhoods near Sutter Delta Medical Center. In eastern Antioch (94531): Lone Tree Valley, Deer Valley, Mira Vista Hills, Sand Creek, Country Hills, and the Lone Tree Way commercial corridor. Antioch's neighborhoods serve a range of tenant profiles - eBART commuters in the eastern zip code, long-term residents in established western subdivisions, and Delta-lifestyle tenants in waterfront-adjacent properties along the Sacramento-San Joaquin River. All neighborhoods are covered under the same management standard: bi-annual condition assessments, objective income-and-credit tenant screening, and monthly financial reporting. References from current Antioch owners are available on request.
How do I get started with Croskey for my Antioch rental?
Call (925) 336-3282 or email info@croskeyrealestate.com to schedule a free property management consultation for your Antioch rental. Croskey Real Estate (brokerage DRE #01990430) serves all of Antioch, CA in zip codes 94509 and 94531. The free consultation includes an in-person property walk to assess condition and compliance requirements under California state law (AB 1482 rent caps, SB 611 security deposit rules, and applicable local ordinances), a market rent review benchmarked against live Antioch comparables, a tenant demand assessment based on proximity to eBART and the Lone Tree Way corridor, and a management plan recommendation - full-service or lease-only - with no obligation to proceed. Our office at 745 Railroad Ave, Pittsburg, CA 94565 is approximately 5 miles from central Antioch, so site visits are scheduled quickly. Wolfgang Croskey, Broker DRE #01708438, personally reviews all new management agreements.
Your office is in Pittsburg - does that affect Antioch service?
No. Croskey Real Estate's Pittsburg office at 745 Railroad Ave is approximately 5 miles from central Antioch - about a 10-minute drive via Highway 4 - which places us closer to most Antioch rental properties than managers operating from Walnut Creek, Concord, or the wider Bay Area. Our maintenance vendor network is built in East Contra Costa County, not dispatched from another region, which means faster response on repairs and showings. Some property management companies list an Antioch address through a satellite office or shared workspace. We believe local infrastructure matters more than a local mailing address: established vendor relationships, a team that knows Antioch neighborhoods by name, and a Pittsburg office that has served East Contra Costa since 2005 - under broker Wolfgang Croskey, DRE #01708438. Our Antioch owners report the same response standard as our core Pittsburg portfolio. References from current Antioch owners are available on request.
Does Antioch have a just cause eviction ordinance?
Yes. Antioch passed its own just cause eviction ordinance in 2024 that goes beyond California AB 1482. Under the Antioch ordinance, landlords must have a legally recognized just cause to terminate a tenancy, with civil penalties of up to $1,000 per violation and potential misdemeanor exposure. The ordinance also adds tenant buyout agreement requirements - any cash-for-keys agreement with an Antioch tenant must follow specific disclosure and waiting-period rules. This is separate from and in addition to state AB 1482 protections, which apply based on a building's construction date and ownership structure. In practice, Antioch landlords are subject to two overlapping layers of tenant protection: AB 1482 for covered units at the state level, and the city's 2024 ordinance on top. Croskey Real Estate coordinates compliance with both when managing Antioch rentals and includes a review of applicable local ordinances as part of every new management consultation.
Does Antioch have rent control?
Antioch does not have traditional rent control with a fixed annual cap. However, California AB 1482 (the Tenant Protection Act) limits annual rent increases to 5% plus local CPI - or 10% total, whichever is lower - for covered units. A unit is covered if the building received its certificate of occupancy more than 15 years ago and is not a single-family home owned by an individual who provided the required statutory exemption notice. In addition, Antioch's 2024 just cause eviction ordinance restricts when a landlord can end a tenancy - which has an indirect effect on rent leverage even in units not covered by AB 1482 caps. For Antioch landlords, the practical result is that rent increases for covered units must stay within AB 1482 limits, and any termination must meet either state or local just cause requirements. Croskey reviews which rules apply to each Antioch property during our onboarding process.
How do I compare property management companies in Antioch, CA?
When comparing property management companies in Antioch, CA, five checks separate local operators from remote ones. First, verify the brokerage license on the California DRE public lookup - every legitimate company lists a brokerage number (Croskey Real Estate is DRE #01990430, Broker of Record Wolfgang Croskey DRE #01708438). Second, ask where the office actually is: many companies marketing to Antioch owners dispatch from Walnut Creek, the Tri-Valley, or a franchise call center, while our office at 745 Railroad Ave in Pittsburg is about 5 miles from central Antioch. Third, ask each company to explain Antioch's 2024 just cause eviction ordinance and its tenant buyout rules - a manager who cannot explain the local ordinance will learn it at your expense. Fourth, compare fee structures in writing: Croskey's full-service management starts from 8% of collected rent with no leasing markup surprises. Fifth, read review volume, not just the star rating - we hold a 4.6-star Google rating across 47 reviews. Ask any company, including us, for references from current Antioch owners.
