Populated by nearly 40,000 people, the city of Campbell, CA, in California’s Bay Area, is a member of Silicon Valley, but is also considered a suburb of San Jose. Despite being the home of digital auction giant eBay, Campbell, CA has not become as consumed by the high technology sector as much as neighboring cities like Cupertino. Today, Campbell, CA is mostly a residential community for employees of Silicon Valley and staff of the colleges and universities that are also located a short distance from the city. Although not a commercial giant like many of Silicon Valley’s other cities, Campbell, CA still offers visitors and residents plenty of shopping choices. The city is host to the Pruneyard Shopping Center, a vast, 250,000 square foot shopping area that gained national notoriety for the role it played in a major 1980 US Supreme Court decision involving free speech in California.
Campbell, CA offers a comfortable balance between small town and city living that is one of the major attractants for people looking for a place to live in the area. On the one hand, the Pruneyard Shopping Center offers plenty of shopping options, and on the other, the largest employers in the area include Fry’s Electronics and Whole Foods Market.
Incorporated in 1952 and named after Benjamin Campbell, who once used much of the area of the city of Campbell, CA to cultivate grain and hay, the city shares a common history with other members of Silicon Valley. Like its neighbors, Campbell’s economy once thrived on agriculture before the high technology industry moved in.
One great investment opportunity open to property owners in Campbell, CA is to rent out their property to tenants and collect rent every month. However, before jumping head first into the opportunity, property owners are encouraged to partner with a Campbell, CA property management company. When you partner with professionals, property owners put the management of their home on cruise control while a team of experienced managers do the “dirty work” of property management; like balancing the books, collecting debts, responding to repair requests, and representing the property in legal disputes that might arise. Without the help of a professional Campbell, CA property management company, property owners would be out on their own for every aspect of management. As many property owners who try to manage a property on their own for the first time know, all of the duties and responsibilities of property management can quickly make property owners feel as if they've gotten in over their head.
Some property owners might be hesitant to partner with a management company because of costs, but in reality, most management teams only collect a fee that is a percentage of the rent collected. This means, that if a renter doesn't pay, the property owner doesn't have to pay the management company and the management company immediately gets to work protecting the homeowner’s investment.
