Serving Merced from Downtown to North Merced, the UC Merced corridor to Bellevue Road — the gateway to Yosemite and home to a growing university city. We manage 300+ units, many our own. Your property gets the same team, same care.
Merced is home to roughly 90,000 residents and anchored by UC Merced — the youngest campus in the University of California system and one of the fastest-growing in the country. With enrollment expanding and a major long-range development plan underway, the university is a permanent engine of rental demand unlike anything else in the Central Valley.
Beyond the campus, Merced serves as the gateway city to Yosemite National Park and connects to the broader San Joaquin Valley economy. Agricultural employment, healthcare (Mercy Medical Center), and state government offices create a diverse and stable renter base — making vacancies shorter and turnover lower than comparable markets.

4.8 ★★★★★ — 5 years in a row — Top-rated property manager in the Central Valley on Yelp
"I used to manage my own properties until I moved to NY and could no longer do so. Through the recommendation of my realtor, we found William's company. They are very detail oriented and very responsive. Charging very attractive rates — well worth the peace of mind."
"William's team helps me manage a 20 unit apartment building in Stockton. Even during the pandemic, they collected more than 95% of rent. Their contractor network performs repairs at a discounted rate — after they took over, my monthly repair expenses went down by roughly 30%. Business is good, I'm happy."
"William has been working with me to manage my property for a year. He is a good communicator, very responsive, and pays attention to details. He is also a good problem solver — he can resolve most property and tenant issues timely and cost effectively. He is a trusted partner to work with."

UC Merced is one of the fastest-growing universities in the country, with enrollment and campus expansion driving sustained housing demand.
