How much does property management cost in Contra Costa County?

Fees depend on property type, location, and service level (full-service or lease-only). Croskey provides a custom quote after reviewing your property. Call (925) 336-3282 for a free consultation.

Does Contra Costa County have rent control or special landlord regulations?

California state law (AB 1482) imposes rent increase caps and just-cause eviction requirements on most residential tenancies. Senate Bill 611 changed security deposit rules effective 2025. Individual Contra Costa cities may have additional local ordinances. Croskey stays current on both county and city-level regulations.

Can Croskey manage properties across multiple Contra Costa cities?

Yes. Many clients own properties in multiple East Contra Costa cities. Croskey manages cross-city portfolios under a single management agreement with consolidated monthly owner statements.

How do I get started with property management in Contra Costa County?

Call (925) 336-3282 or email info@croskeyrealestate.com. We offer a free consultation that includes a property walk, rent range review, compliance assessment, and management recommendation with no obligation.

Which East Contra Costa cities have local rent control beyond AB 1482?

Antioch has a local Just Cause for Eviction (JCE) ordinance that adds notice and documentation requirements beyond state law. Concord passed Measure V in November 2022, which caps rent increases on covered multi-family units (generally pre-1995 buildings with 3 or more units). Pittsburg, Brentwood, Oakley, Bay Point, and unincorporated Contra Costa County rely on AB 1482 only - no additional local rent control. Croskey tracks all active ordinances across the cities we serve.

How does AB 1482 rent cap apply across Contra Costa County cities?

AB 1482 allows rent increases of CPI plus 5 percent, capped at 10 percent per year, for covered residential tenancies in California. Exempt properties include single-family homes and condos where the owner has provided required AB 1482 exemption notice, new construction built after February 1, 2005, and owner-occupied duplexes. All seven East Contra Costa cities we serve fall under AB 1482 as the baseline, with Antioch and Concord adding city-specific layers on top. We verify each property's coverage status before setting rent increase amounts.

Does Croskey manage rental properties in unincorporated Contra Costa County?

Yes. Bay Point (zip 94565) is an unincorporated community within Contra Costa County, not a city, and we actively manage rentals there. Unincorporated areas follow Contra Costa County building and zoning codes and are governed by AB 1482 at the state level - there is no additional local rent control for unincorporated CoCo County. Our Pittsburg office at 745 Railroad Ave is minutes from Bay Point, so maintenance coordination and inspections run on the same schedule as our Pittsburg properties.
