What Bluestone & Hockley Realty Inc does

Bluestone & Hockley Realty Inc, doing business as Bluestone Real Estate Services, is a Portland, Oregon-based privately held property management firm that has operated in the Pacific Northwest since 1972 (with primary branding noting 1985) and serves property owners, homeowner associations, and tenants across the Willamette Valley, Oregon Coast, and SW Washington. The company runs four core service lines: residential property management (multifamily and single-family), commercial property management (retail, office, industrial), SVN Bluestone commercial brokerage, and community association (HOA/condo) management, with supporting maintenance coordination and court-appointed receivership work. Back-office operations, owner reporting, tenant communication, and leasing are run on the third-party AppFolio property management platform, paired with PetScreening for pet/ESA registration; no proprietary AI or ML capabilities are disclosed.

The firm operates from three regional offices — Portland (headquarters), Salem, and Vancouver — with go-to-market driven by relationship-based acquisition, direct sales, and self-service AppFolio tenant/owner/HOA portals. Revenue is generated primarily through recurring management fees on managed residential, commercial, and HOA portfolios, supplemented by transaction commissions from SVN Bluestone brokerage and professional-services fees for receivership engagements. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; individual listing data points include residential units starting near $1,275/month and commercial suites around $1,750/month.

Customer evidence points to a distributed, mid-market book: numerous named multifamily and HOA communities (e.g., Lakepoint at Inland Shore, Dutch Village Apartments, The Courtyards at Fairview, The Envoy, Arbor Station HOA, Sahhali Shores), plus commercial assets like Reed Opera House. Brand position is supported by three consecutive Portland Business Journal fastest-growing private company nominations and dual CAI 2025 Community Association of the Year awards (small and large divisions). The company previously operated under the name Criteria Properties and has no disclosed parent, institutional investor, or cap-table information.

Broad incumbents

• Greystar Real Estate Partners: Largest multifamily and student housing property manager and developer globally. Directly comparable business model (fee-based property management) but at vastly greater scale across many U.S. markets including the Pacific Northwest.
• Lincoln Property Company: Diversified real estate services firm offering residential and commercial property management plus brokerage. Comparable multi-service structure; significantly larger scale and broader geographic footprint.
• Cushman & Wakefield: Global commercial real estate services firm offering property management, valuation, and brokerage. Comparable commercial management and brokerage services to Bluestone's commercial arm, though Cushman operates at global scale.
• CBRE Group: Largest global commercial real estate services firm with property management, brokerage, and advisory services. Comparable commercial PM and SVN-like brokerage model, with significantly broader geographic and service coverage.

Direct peers

• RPM Living: National multifamily property management firm providing fee-based management services. Highly comparable third-party PM business model, though RPM operates across far more metros than Bluestone's PNW focus.
• FirstService Corporation: Public company providing property management and related services across residential, commercial, and HOA segments via FirstService Residential and commercial brands. Closest scaled comparables in HOA management and mixed-use property services.
• SVN International Corp: Commercial real estate brokerage franchise network. Bluestone operates SVN Bluestone as its commercial brokerage arm, making SVN the parent brand and franchise peers across other U.S. metros.

Others

• AppFolio: Cloud-based property management software platform serving residential and HOA managers. Bluestone runs on AppFolio, making it both a customer and ecosystem peer; competitors like Buildium and Yardi sit alongside.
• RealPage: Enterprise property management software platform serving large multifamily operators. Competes with AppFolio for Bluestone's tech stack; relevant industry peer as the broader PM-software ecosystem.

Regional players

• Cascade Management: Pacific Northwest-based property management company serving Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. Most direct regional comparable in geographic footprint, HOA and multifamily mix, and mid-market customer profile.
