Our closest market, our fastest response
Bay Point is about 2 miles from our Pittsburg office. Showings, inspections, and repairs run through the same local vendor network we use next door, a proximity advantage remote managers cannot match.
BART access without central-Bay rents
The Pittsburg/Bay Point station is a direct commute to Oakland and San Francisco, which draws stable commuter tenants. We screen each applicant against the same objective criteria to protect your investment.
Unincorporated county: simpler regulatory layer
Bay Point falls under Contra Costa County rather than a city government, so landlords face state law and county rules only - no additional city-level rent ordinances beyond AB 1482. We track every applicable threshold and notice requirement so you stay compliant without monitoring the calendar yourself.

Real Answers
Bay Point property management questions
Does Croskey Real Estate manage rentals in Bay Point, CA?
Yes. Bay Point is approximately 2 miles from our Pittsburg headquarters at 745 Railroad Ave, making it one of the closest markets we serve. We have managed rentals in Bay Point continuously since 2005 under DRE brokerage license #01990430. Our licensed broker, Wolfgang Croskey (DRE #01708438), oversees every management agreement. We handle detached single-family homes and multi-unit buildings (2-4 units) throughout Bay Point under both full-service and lease-only models.
How much does property management cost in Bay Point, CA?
Our monthly management fee is typically 8-10% of collected rent. For a Bay Point 3-bedroom renting at $2,200-$2,700 per month, that translates to approximately $176-$270 per month. We also charge a tenant placement fee (equivalent to one-half to one month's rent) when we fill a vacancy - this covers marketing, showings, screening, and lease execution. A lease-only option is available if you prefer to self-manage day-to-day. Call (925) 336-3282 for a specific quote after we review your Bay Point property.
Is Bay Point a good area for rental property investment?
Bay Point offers acquisition prices that are typically 10-15% below comparable Pittsburg properties while sharing the same BART station - the Pittsburg/Bay Point station is a direct commute to Oakland (35-40 min) and San Francisco (60-70 min). A 3-bedroom detached home rents for $2,200-$2,700 per month, producing rent-to-price ratios that compare favorably to central-Bay markets. Tenant turnover tends to be lower than urban East Bay markets because Bay Point's relative affordability gives residents less incentive to move. The housing stock is primarily 1960s-1980s construction - investors should budget for deferred maintenance but benefit from strong long-term demand.
What zip codes and neighborhoods does Croskey cover in Bay Point?
Bay Point shares zip code 94565 with the city of Pittsburg. Within the Bay Point CDP (Census Designated Place), Croskey manages properties across all neighborhoods: Bailey Road corridor, Willow Pass Road, Shore Acres, Port Chicago Highway, Ambrose, and the Suisun Bay waterfront areas. We do not distinguish between sub-neighborhoods for coverage - if a property is within the Bay Point CDP boundary, we can manage it.
Does Bay Point have rent control?
Bay Point has no local rent control ordinance. As an unincorporated community governed by Contra Costa County, Bay Point landlords follow state law rather than any city-level rent regulation. California AB 1482 (the Tenant Protection Act of 2019) applies to most Bay Point rentals and caps annual rent increases at 5% plus local CPI, up to 10% total. Units first occupied within the last 15 years (built after approximately 2011 as of 2026) are exempt from the rent cap. Single-family homes and condominiums sold separately are also exempt if the owner provides the required statutory AB 1482 exemption notice in the lease. Unlike Antioch, Bay Point has no additional just-cause eviction ordinance beyond what AB 1482 already requires. Croskey tracks all applicable thresholds for every property we manage.
What is the rental market like in Bay Point, CA?
Bay Point's rental market is anchored by commuter demand from the Pittsburg/Bay Point BART station, which draws working professionals and essential workers priced out of Oakland and the central Bay. A typical 3-bedroom detached home rents for $2,200-$2,700 per month. The tenant pool skews toward long-term renters - lower turnover than urban East Bay markets - because Bay Point's affordability discourages frequent moves. The Bay Point CDP is primarily residential with limited retail, so tenants who rent here have made a deliberate location choice based on the BART commute and housing cost, which produces stable occupancy. Highway 4 access also draws tenants employed at industrial and logistics employers along the corridor.
How is Bay Point different from Pittsburg for property management?
Bay Point is an unincorporated community governed by Contra Costa County; Pittsburg is an incorporated city with its own municipal code and city services. Both share zip code 94565 and the Pittsburg/Bay Point BART station. For landlords the practical differences are: Bay Point has no city-level ordinances (only state and county law applies), acquisition prices are typically lower, and the housing stock is older. From a management standpoint we treat both identically - our office at 745 Railroad Ave in Pittsburg serves Bay Point with the same response times, vendor relationships, and lease process. Bay Point landlords get the same local proximity advantage without the Pittsburg city permit and code-compliance layer.
How do I get started with Croskey for my Bay Point rental?
Call (925) 336-3282 or email info@croskeyrealestate.com. We will schedule a walkthrough of your Bay Point property, pull comparable active rentals and recent leases to establish market rent, and present a management plan with pricing - no obligation. If you decide to move forward, we execute a management agreement, list your property within days, and handle everything from that point: marketing, showings, tenant screening, lease signing, move-in inspection, rent collection, maintenance coordination, and annual reporting.
