Our goal is to enhance our clients' property values through active day-to-day management that focuses on maintaining high levels of occupancy and tenant satisfaction, while lowering property costs.

The process we use of continuous evaluation, response, and improvement ensures quality and consistency at every service level. During our more than 35 years of experience in designing, building and managing one of the largest commercial real estate portfolios in Sonoma County, Simons & Woodard has developed a management approach that emphasizes the performance of all service with excellence. We constantly attempt to integrate the industry's finest real estate practices to create consistent, best-in-class policies and procedures that lower costs and increase value.

Each new property that comes under our management benefits from strategic purchasing practices and leverage. We have detailed specifications for all services, formalized contracts for vendors, and a rigorous approach to contract administration that eliminates redundancy and non-performance. The operating costs for the properties we manage are among the lowest of all market competitors and we are continually praised by tenants and visitors for the high quality of our maintenance and repair.

Leasing, the process of creating the rent stream, represents the most significant area of risk and return for property owners - so sustaining a property's leasing momentum for both lease renewals and new leases is crucial. Simons & Woodard believes the best way to accomplish this is to have in-house leasing and marketing specialists to work directly with tenant prospects and the brokerage community. We also believe that the best tenants a property can have are the ones it already has, so we emphasize tenant retention. Our tenant relations programs are designed to promote a high level of personal service through one-on-one communication and tenant appreciation.
