How Much Does Property Management Cost in
Redwood City?
Most Redwood City managers charge 8–12% of collected rent monthly, a tenant-placement fee of 50–100% of one month's rent, and a lease-renewal fee around $200. ETRO Group uses a tiered model and an exclusive Loyalty Program for reduced rates — so you only pay for the service level you need.
Does Redwood City Have Rent Control?
Redwood City has
no local rent cap, but adopted a
Tenant Protection Ordinance effective January 2026 on top of state law:
- California's AB 1482 caps annual increases at 5% plus CPI, or 10% — whichever is lower, with just cause after 12 months
- The local TPO aligns just-cause eviction standards with state law and expands relocation assistance
- Landlords must offer at least a one-year lease term
Keeping up with both state and city rules takes local expertise. ETRO Group tracks every requirement on your behalf.
