With this agreement, Sequoia’s unit count increases by over 10% with 16,432 units across 81 communities under management.
Rita Crawford, Vice President of Portfolio Management, conveyed, “adding this group of properties into our portfolio provides a unique opportunity to diversify further within the greater Bay Area, the place where it all began for our organization.

We are thrilled to put into action our practices of Elevating the Everyday for the many individuals that call these properties home.”

Owner Doug Smith shared why Sequoia was the perfect fit to become a managing partner for his communities. “Our family has been managing high-quality housing assets for over 5 decades; we wanted a management partner that aligns with our vision and values. Not only is Sequoia best in class, but as an owner and operator, they provide a unique approach when it comes to managing multifamily communities. They are able to see things through a different lens and provide personal touches. They truly value the resident’s experience, which maximizes the potential at our communities.”
