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. After managing our own portfolio of dozens of properties for years, we see a need on the market we can fill with our decades of combined experience. Thus, SUM Property Management came into business, serving Stockton, Tracy, Modesto, Lodi, and the neighboring cities.

Landlords turned Managers

We manage over 300 properties, we own a significant portion of that. Over the past decade of working on our own properties, we’ve built a strong team of professionals— comprising managers, in-house maintenance, contractors, attorneys, accountants, etc.

We extend the same team of experts to our client’s properties. This integrated team approach means efficient operations, faster problem-solving, and comprehensive support covering every angle of property management – giving you the peace of mind that your investment is in expert hands. As a result, your properties will be handled in the same way, by the same people who take care of our own properties.
