About Us
Project Preservation is the behind-the-scenes brain of beautifully run homes.
We help luxury homeowners manage maintenance, vendors, and service providers with systems that bring order, consistency, and ease — across one property or an entire portfolio.
We are a team of discreet, highly trained professionals who bring order, continuity, and care to the management of luxury homes.
With backgrounds in hospitality, construction, and estate operations, we understand the complexity of caring for high-value properties — and the people who live in them.
We combine modern systems with old-school discretion to manage every detail with clarity, structure, and calm.
A Private Client Service, Built Differently.
A Smarter, More Human Approach to Home Management
Project Preservation blends systems and service in a way that few others do. We’ve built a structure that works across properties, cities, and lifestyles — without losing the human touch.
​​
Efficient by Design
We’ve created a universal playbook for how homes should be maintained, documented, and cared for — tailored to each client’s preferences and priorities. This system allows us to scale seamlessly across properties while keeping every detail personalized.
​
Exceptional People, On the Ground
Our Preservationists are handpicked, highly trained, and embedded at your property. They are the eyes and ears of our operation — trusted, proactive, and professional in every sense.
​
Vendors Want to Work With Us
We’ve built strong relationships with the best trades, technicians, and service providers. We speak their language, understand their timelines, and advocate for our clients — which means they show up for us, every time.
​Tech + Relationships = Results
We use modern tools to track maintenance, log work orders, and document property details — but the heart of our success lies in our relationships, both with clients and service providers.
​
The Fractional Model, Done Right
Our approach is ideal for anyone who needs professional property support — without building a full-time estate team. Whether you have one home or five, we provide the structure, oversight, and consistency that homeowners rarely find in a piecemeal approach.
Why I Started Project Preservation
As a longtime personal assistant and project manager in the Bay Area, I saw firsthand how hard it was for even the most capable homeowners to manage their properties — especially when juggling multiple homes, vendors, and timelines.
Clients didn’t just need a coordinator. They needed a system. A partner. A way to make their home life run as smoothly as their business life.
Project Preservation was born from that need.
What started as a boutique service in the Bay Area has grown into a national model for proactive, high-touch estate and property management. Today, we manage over half a billion dollars in real estate across California and beyond — with dedicated Preservationists on the ground in both the Bay Area and Los Angeles, and an expanding presence in key markets nationwide.
Our clients come to us for consistency, standards, and relief.
They stay because they trust us to run their properties — without ever having to be the manager themselves.
