Presidential Real Estate

What Presidential Real Estate does

Presidential Real Estate, operating as Presidential Property Management, is a full-service residential property management firm founded in 2013 by John Adams and headquartered in Willow Glen, San Jose, California. The company serves small-to-medium real estate investors across Santa Clara County and San Mateo County in the South Bay Area, providing tenant placement, rent collection, maintenance coordination, accounting, and property inspections. The team holds industry certifications including PMC (Property Management Certified), RMP (Registered Management Professional), and CCRM, and includes operator Brad Abbott with 11 years of property management experience.

The firm's operational backbone is the AppFolio Property Manager platform, a third-party SaaS system that delivers owner and tenant online portals, automated rent collection, maintenance tracking, and accounting workflows. Native iOS and Android mobile applications extend portal access to owners and tenants on demand. There is no proprietary technology stack; the company is a services business configured on top of best-in-class property management software, supplemented by membership in NARPM and AAofFTMA professional associations and listing presence on Houzz, Zillow, and Facebook.

The business model is fee-based property management: management fees are charged as a percentage of monthly rent collected from managed properties, with ancillary revenue from a $40 per-adult-applicant tenant screening fee. Revenue is fragmented across many small investor accounts, each owning one to several doors. The firm is privately held, founder-owned, and bootstrapped with no disclosed outside funding, and operates with a small named team of three individuals.
