How this works in Danville

Repairs are where owner money leaks and tenant goodwill is won or lost. We run a 24-hour maintenance line, send licensed and insured vendors, and bill you exactly what the vendor billed us. You set a dollar threshold in the management agreement; below it we fix the problem, above it we call you with a quote. Habitability issues, no heat, no hot water, water coming in, go first, because in the East Bay a habitability complaint is also an eviction defense and in Oakland grounds for a tenant petition to the Rent Adjustment Program.

Cap
State law only: 8.8% for Aug 2026 to Jul 2027 on the units AB 1482 covers. An individually owned house or condo is exempt from the state cap only with the statutory exemption notice in the lease. Corporate or LLC-owned homes are capped. Blackhawk, Alamo and Diablo are unincorporated, so county permitting and HOA rules apply there rather than the town's.
Just cause
State just cause only, after 12 months of tenancy. No town ordinance.
Fees and filings
Town business license required, but owners renting four or fewer units are exempt. No registry and no rent-program fee.

// questions

Maintenance in Danville: questions owners ask

Is there rent control in Danville?

No. Danville has no cap, registry or local just cause. State law applies: 8.8% for Aug 2026 to Jul 2027 on covered units, and no cap on an individually owned house or condo if the lease carries the AB 1482 exemption notice.

How long does a $5,000 house sit empty between tenants?

We do not have a published Danville figure to quote. What we control is the gap: marketing starts before the current tenant leaves, HOA approvals run in parallel with screening, and pricing comes from this month's comps rather than last year's lease. At $4,995 a month, every week saved is about $1,165.

Can I use my own handyman or plumber?

Yes, if they are licensed where the law requires it and carry insurance. We will add them to the vendor list for your property and dispatch to them first. If they do not respond within the window a repair needs, we send our vendor and tell you.

How fast do you respond to an emergency?

The line is answered around the clock. Loss of heat, hot water or water service, an active leak, a lockout, a sewer backup and a safety hazard are dispatched the same day, usually within hours. We tell you by text or email as soon as a vendor is assigned.

Who pays for a repair the tenant caused?

The tenant, where the lease and the facts support it. We document the cause with photos and the vendor's report, bill the tenant, and if it is unpaid at move-out it comes from the deposit with an itemized statement. Ordinary wear is the owner's cost under California law and we will tell you when something is wear rather than damage.
