Our company derives from the visionary work of our Owners' grandfather, Scott William Bonds, who began building and managing properties in El Cerrito, Albany, and the Berkeley Hills back in the 1930s. Scott is credited as one of the pioneers of the "garden style apartments, " built around a central swimming pool.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness, Value
I have lived in one of the properties since 1999. At all times the property has been kept in a neat and tidy manner. No effort is spared to ensure that tenants get value for their money. Roland , is always accessible and prompt in responding to and effecting repairs.

I have been a resident of SWB Property Management/Bonds Properties since February 2020. Despite and throughout this Covid-19 pandemic season, they have provided consistent professional and responsive effort to ensure my rental experience is positive. I have lived in 4 states and many rentals over the years and Roland is by far the best I've ever worked with. For this reason I signed another lease and would again. There is no other landlord and property management group I would recommend more in this area. They will treat you with respect.

We stayed in this property for a little over two-year. Roland, the property manager is very respectful and professional. Roland always fix issues in a timely manner. The property is always cleaned and well-maintained by professional and Keith. Neighbors are super friendly which is a plus. Ohh and Keith always makes sure the trash room stay clean and organize so I never worry about raccoons. So far I am very happy with this management.

My husband and I have lived in one of the Bonds Properties in El Cerrito for the last few months. Roland, the property Manager, helped us visit a few properties before we settled on the one we’re in. We like our apartment which is maintained very nicely by Roland. We could not have a better property Manager than Roland. He is very professional and friendly, always going out of his way to meet our needs. We definitely recommend Bonds Properties as long as Roland stays with them!

We have been living in the Park Plaza building in Albany managed by SWB Living/Bond Properties for over 2 years now. We love this place and our family feels at home here in large part due to the excellent work of Roland, the property manager. The common areas are always clean and well maintained. We share the building with great tenants creating a safe environment with a good vibe to it. Roland is very responsive and hardworking and you can see him always with a smile on his face. In a rare occasion when we needed a repair in the bathroom that could have waited a few days, Roland decided to fix

I have had the good fortune of finding a place through Bond Properties this year. I started my lease in March-April and from the first email to Roland (the property manager), I have been pleased by the service and the enhancement to my quality of life. The property is great but Roland makes it all work. He was patient, accommodating, and helpful from day 1 and he continues to be so. I don't have to reach out to him often, but when I do he respond right away and resolves any issue. I highly recommend the company and their properties.

I have been renting from Bonds Properties for six years now, and my experience especially with Roland, (The Property Manager), have been exceptionally positive. He is very responsive, and always there if someone needs help. He will go out of his way to make sure all tenants are taken care of. I can not imagine moving somewhere else, as long as I'm renting this place is the safest and best place in this area.

My family of four, has been renting from Bonds Property for 2+years now. We have been extremely happy with our unit and the common areas in the apartment complex, which are always kept clean and well maintained. We feel very lucky to have found our apartment and especially to have found Roland, our Property Manager. Roland is a kind, attentive, accommodating, considerate and very professional person, who gives a true sense of comfort and safety to the Park Plaza community. He has always responded right away to our needs and is even available on the weekends to make sure all is OK. Roland handles
