Move Bay Area is a full-service rental agency and relocation company committed to helping renters find homes and owners find tenants.
For tenants
We help renters and people moving to SF find the best rental possible and plan for a successful and stress-free move to the San Francisco Bay Area. We take the time to get to know your needs, make a plan of action, and support you from house hunting through lease signing.
For owners
We help owners create a strategy to price rentals and list their property on the market. We help you navigate California's rental laws and fill vacancies with the best tenant possible.
“I wholeheartedly and without reservation recommend Move Bay Area. My wife and I are thrilled with our new place, and our apartment hunt was much, much easier and less stressful than it would have been if we'd tried to do it ourselves.”
— Matt, relocation to San Francisco
