About Prandi Property Management
PRANDI Property Management - Marin County's Most Trusted Name in Residential Property Management Since 1947
In the complex, high-stakes world of Marin County real estate, choosing the right property management company is not just a business decision - it is a deeply personal one. Your home, your investment, your financial future. That is exactly why so many Marin property owners have trusted one name for decades: PRANDI Property Management, the county's most experienced, most respected, and most community-rooted residential leasing and management firm.
PRANDI Property Management is the most trusted name in leasing and property management services in San Rafael, offering strong customer service through effective communication, technology, and continued education. With roots going back to 1947 and over 50 years of active presence in the Marin market, PRANDI is not just experienced - they are the standard against which other Marin property management companies are measured.
Led by a Marin Native Who Literally Wrote the Book
At the heart of PRANDI is its President and CEO, Melissa Prandi - a Marin County native whose entire professional life has been devoted to this industry and this community. Melissa started out as a receptionist at a small property management company, worked her way up through every role, and eventually bought the company outright - building it into the respected institution it is today. Her son Matt, now Vice President, represents the next generation of PRANDI leadership, ensuring the company's family values and community commitment carry forward.
Melissa Prandi is the proud author of two books in the property management industry, has dedicated over 40 years of her life to Marin County property management, and continues to stay educated and involved. When PRANDI says they wrote the book on property management, they mean it - literally.

A Company That Gives Back - Deeply and Consistently

Melissa and the PRANDI team support numerous organizations across Marin and beyond, and Melissa leads by example through her active engagement in charitable organizations and her affiliation with the Mission San Rafael Rotary Club. This is a company woven into the fabric of Marin County life - not just as a business, but as a neighbor.
