How Much Does Property Management Cost in
San Leandro?
Most San Leandro 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 San Leandro Have Rent Control? (2027 Rent Stabilization)
Yes — and this is now the single most important reason to hire a local expert. On
February 2, 2026, the City Council passed
Ordinance 2026-001, a Residential Rent Stabilization and Just Cause Eviction program that
takes effect January 1, 2027:
- Annual rent increases on covered multi-family properties are capped at the lower of 3% or 65% of CPI (from a July 1, 2025 baseline)
- Just-cause eviction protections apply to covered units.
- Relocation payments of 3× rent or 3× HUD Fair Market Rent — roughly $7,000+ per unit (+$1,000 for seniors, disabled, or minors)
- A mandatory Rental Registry (Ch. 4-45) — register by July 31 each year or lose the right to raise rent or evict
On top of this, California's
AB 1482 rent cap still applies. A single misstep can cost thousands — ETRO Group tracks every requirement and handles compliance on your behalf.
