Family-Owned · Bay Area Local · Nurse-Led
Your Property,
Our Partnership
We're Ralph & Christy, registered nurses and Bay Area locals who turn your property into a truly passive asset. Guaranteed rent, hands-on care, and the kind of attention only a family business can offer.
Our Story
A family business built on care, trust, and two street names that started it all.
We're Ralph & Christy, and this business started with two streets.
The name Plum & Vale comes from the street names of the first two properties we ever owned. Those homes introduced us to real estate, and more importantly, they taught us what it means to truly care for a space and the people who live in it.
By day, we're both registered nurses here in the Bay Area. The same instincts that guide us in healthcare (attention to detail, reliability, and genuine compassion) are what we bring to every property we manage. We know what it means to show up, do the work, and earn someone's trust.
We started Plum & Vale as a small, family-owned corporate housing business because we saw an opportunity to do things differently. Not as a faceless management company, but as real people who take personal responsibility for your home. When you partner with us, you're not getting a call center. You're getting Ralph and Christy.
Nurse-Led Care
The same precision, empathy, and reliability we bring to patient care, we bring to your property. Detail-oriented by training, caring by nature.
Bay Area Locals
We live and work right here. We know the neighborhoods, the market, and the community. Your property is never far from our attention.
Family Business
This isn't a side hustle. It's our family's livelihood. Our reputation is everything, and we protect yours like we protect our own.
Our Property Management Philosophy
Since 2022, we've been managing a duplex in Las Vegas with long-term corporate professionals. Our track record speaks to our commitment: tenant retention, satisfaction, and properties maintained with genuine care. This is the model we're bringing to the Bay Area.
Living RoomThe Modern Hearth
Vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and curated minimalist furnishings. The kind of space that makes guests feel at home from the moment they walk in.
BedroomThe Serene Suite
A restful master bedroom with vaulted ceiling, barn door, and abundant natural light. Designed for the kind of sleep traveling professionals deserve.
DiningArtisan Dining
A warm dining space with handcrafted oak table and artisan wall tapestry. Every detail is intentional, because details are what make a stay memorable.
Open PlanThe Grand Living
An expansive open-plan home with kitchen island and exposed beam. This is the kind of property that earns five-star reviews without trying.
How We Protect Your Investment
We don't just manage your property. We take personal responsibility for it. Here's exactly what that looks like.
"Our goal is to turn your property into a truly passive asset for you."
