Thorough Tenant screening

We run a stringent screening process to find your potential tenants. Our formatted applications aim to gather as many details as possible about prospective tenants. From 18 years to older, everyone needs to complete our application before renting a property.

We look for individuals and families who have a record of being respectful tenants. We verify all important things like employment, identity, credit score, previous tenancy history and criminal record to minimize risks and deliver outstanding renters. We want residents who treat your property respectfully and lease it in the long run.

Comprehensive Rental Leasing

One common mistake owners make is downloading a random lease template and using it for their rental properties. But it won’t work and puts you in a legal pickle. We draft a strong lease agreement that is specific and legally compliant with state laws.

Our leases are designed to protect you, your property and your residents against all types of liabilities. We include all the necessary rules, regulations, and obligations to set the right expectations. Our team works hard to enforce a lease agreement and build professional and respectful relationships with your tenants.

Effective Property Management

Your property managers in Walnut Creek go beyond conventional property management responsibilities like rent collection and tenant placement. We believe in providing all-round care for your property.

Our services include everything from professional accounting, property maintenance, and transparent communication to regular property inspections, legal support and emergency repair services designed to protect your asset. We visit the property annually to ensure your tenants perform as we expect them to and look for unreported maintenance issues.

Stokley Properties has taken care of my home for a number of years. I use the word “care”, purposely.. I had zero experience in having rental property but knew care was needed in finding good tenants and also knew calls for problems that could arise would be difficult for me to find the time to tend to with my other responsibilities. I have good and tender memories made at this property and wanted others to have the same opportunity and also have it cared for. Stokley has met and exceeded my expectations in all aspects. I have referred them to other family members and friends and they feel as I do. We appreciate the quality with which you attend to every detail, the quick return phone calls, the professional venders you use…thank you, Stokley!

We worked closely with Blake at Stokley Properties in helping us navigate a new lease at one of their properties in Moraga. He was super communicative and walked us through the entire process with calls and updates. The Stokley online portal is simple and easy too. Overall we have had a great experience!
