We started out as a group of landlords in San Joaquin County and came into the management business because we were hugely dissatisfied with the services offered on the market.
SUM Property Management is a full-service residential property management company serving Stockton, Modesto, and the wider Central Valley — including Lathrop, Tracy, Turlock, Manteca, Lodi, and Merced.
We started this company 10 years ago because we were landlords ourselves, frustrated by how poorly the local property management industry treated investment owners. We experienced first-hand the lack of transparency, the hidden fees, and the poor communication that plagued local property management.
Today our team of real estate agents, managers, and landlords manages 300+ properties — including our own. We've built an integrated team over the past decade including managers, in-house maintenance, contractors, attorneys, and accountants — delivering efficient operations, faster problem-solving, and comprehensive support across all property management angles.
"Your properties treated like ours, in principle and in practice."
Because we own investment properties ourselves, we manage yours with the same level of care, scrutiny, and accountability we apply to our own.
