With such a high quality of life, it’s easy to see why over 140,000 people make Sunnyvale, CA their home.  Along with being a major city in Silicon Valley, Sunnyvale is also a close distance to the San Francisco Bay and many colleges and universities, including Stanford University, which is only a short drive away.  Location isn't the only aspect of Sunnyvale that makes so many people want to live there, the city is also home to award winning parks and regularly recognized public schools.  Part of the city’s success is due in part to the city’s desire to improve the qualify of life for each and every citizen.  One example of how the city does this is through its innovative Department of Public Safety, which saves taxpayers thousands of dollars every year by consolidating the police and fire departments into a single municipal agency.

Today, Sunnyvale is home to some of the most successful companies in the high technology sector, like AMD and Yahoo!; but like much of the Silicon Valley, the city has deep roots to an agricultural past.  In fact, in the 1860's, the town served as a major hub of commerce for the area, providing canning services to surrounding orchards.  With WWII, the main industries in town went from serving the agricultural industry to serving the defense industry as part of the war effort at home; this caused the population of the area of Sunnyvale to balloon to 4,400.  After the war, through the 1950's and 60's, the population continued to grow and by 1970 reached almost 100,000 residents.  Without a war effort to support, Sunnyvale began hosting computer technology companies to become one of the first major players in what is today Silicon Valley.

To say the least, property owners in Sunnyvale rarely have trouble finding tenants to occupy their homes, but, like with any property, the job of management isn't one that a property owner should try to handle on their own.  What many wise property owners do is partner with a professional Sunnyvale property management company to act as the custodian of a property on behalf of the owner.  When they partner with a management company, homeowners no longer have to worry about screening potential tenants, collecting rent, responding to emergency repairs, or doing any of the day to day duties that typically haunt the lone property manager.

Sunnyvale property management companies are both professional and experienced, but they are also affordable.  In most cases, the management company will collect only a small percentage of the rent paid by tenants as their fee, leaving the homeowner with a majority of the rent to spend as they see fit.  Some might say that partnering with a professional management team is a lot like putting property ownership on autopilot.  Imagine if you could own a property and collect an income from it without having to lift a finger.  Doesn't that sound like an arrangement you would enjoy?
