Geissler Properties

Based upon the appearance of his own residence, there is not much attention to maintenance. Peeling paint, dry rot, dead trees.

We rented from Ralph for 5 – 6 years and it only got better with time. Ralph owns a few properties in SF and does almost all the work on them himself. If the exterior paint job is rust colored with blue accents, there’s a good chance that it’s one of Ralph’s properties. I’ve had many a conversation about renovations with him. He likes to improve his properties. If something serious happens, he’s there very quick to fix it. If it’s an improvement or a minor non-​essential repair, it will take quite a while. I saw ample evidence that he cares about his properties AND his tenants. He let us store extra stuff, didn’t charge us late fees, was flexible on move-​out dates, and put over-​the-​top effort into fixing our place up before we moved in. Treat your landlords like people and your apartment like home and all will be good. I would be happy to be able to rent from him again.
