AHA - Property Management Bid for Qualifications – April 2, 2026

The Housing Authority of the City of Alameda Property Management Request for Qualifications

April 2, 2026

The Housing Authority of the City of Alameda (AHA) is inviting property management agents with affordable housing experience to submit a response to this request for qualifications (RFQ) to manage AHA’s multifamily portfolio, with an anticipated contract start date of September 1,2026. The RFQ covers all AHA owned and affiliated properties with additional proposed and in- development properties to be added in coming years. AHA expects to sign a contract for a 3-year period with two one-year renewal options.

The Proposal and Selection Process

This RFQ provides information that your company will need to submit as a response to the RFQ.

This is the first round of a two-step solicitation and is designed for management agent response with minimal additional information. The second round of the selection process will include interviews, fee proposals, performance expectations and AHA’s expected PMA terms.

AHA will select one or more management agents with the capacity to provide a full range of property management services including day-to-day operations, staffing, program compliance, financial management, reporting, maintenance, as well as lease-up of new properties.

Note: While AHA’s preference is for a full-service affordable property management provider, AHA also welcomes responses from companies that do only one or two of the key parts of the property management cycle. This might be, for example, companies who only provide financial accounting for property management, or a market rate property management company who does not do affordable compliance part. Any bidder who does not provide all the services listed in Appendix A should indicate that clearly in their response. Additionally, if you bid as a company that only does accounting for property management but joint venture with a property management company for day-to-day operations as an example, please note this in your response and provide information on how this has been effective.

More detail on AHA’s minimum qualifications and scope of work is attached as Appendix A.

About AHA & The Property Portfolio

The Housing Authority of the City of Alameda (AHA) advocates for and provides quality, affordable, safe housing; encourages self-sufficiency; and builds community partnerships.

AHA is a public agency headed by an Executive Director (ED) and governed by a seven-person Board of Commissioners. AHA owns residential property directly as well as through its affiliates, Alameda Affordable Housing Corporation (AAHC), Island City Development (ICD) and low-income housing tax credit partnerships. Unless otherwise stated, all AHA-affiliated residential apartment units listed below are eligible for this solicitation.

3 |

Despite its designation as a public housing authority, AHA owns no Public Housing units, operating less like a traditional public housing authority and more like a medium-to-large nonprofit housing developer and owner, with approximately 50 employees.

AHA and its affiliates currently own or control 23 properties consisting of 796 units of affordable housing (one of which includes 3 commercial spaces) with two additional properties totaling another 106 apartments in development. The AHA portfolio consists of family and senior communities, scattered site housing, and permanent supportive housing for formerly homeless residents. The entire portfolio is located on the island of Alameda, California. A detailed list of AHA’s property portfolio is included in Appendix B.

All properties are affordable to residents with incomes at or below 80% of area median income (AMI). Some units have significantly lower AMIs but most AHA residents have Project Based or Tenant Based vouchers. The properties are supported with funding from a range of sources, including Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), State of CA Multifamily Housing Program (MHP), AHA, Alameda City and County funding, Project Based Voucher rent subsidy, soft and conventional loans and other affordable and homeless housing funding sources.

How Many Properties Can We Bid On?

Responders may make a proposal for the number and type of properties that they feel capable of managing competently. AHA would prefer to contract with fewer management companies unless there is a compelling reason to assign several smaller management contracts. AHA requests that management companies bid for a minimum of 252 units . The entire LIHTC portfolio of five properties containing 252 units may be better to be managed by one property management company but this is not required.

Key Dates

• Bid Conference: AHA will hold an online “pre-proposal” conference on April 15, 2026 at

1PM Participation at the bid conference is optional, but it will be the best time to ask questions before the RFQ response due date. AHA will arrange inspections of property common areas later in the process.
