Property management + asset management
Large institutions don't just manage their buildings; they manage them as investments. Led by a former institutional asset manager, Oakdale brings that same discipline to small portfolios, pairing day-to-day property management with strategic asset management in one integrated package, at a competitive price.
Serving Marin County and the San Francisco Bay Area
The gap
Owners of a handful of properties usually have two options: hire a property manager who keeps the lights on, or handle everything themselves. Nobody is looking at the portfolio as an investment. Institutional owners, meanwhile, have asset managers whose job is to make the big calls.
Oakdale exists to close that gap.
What we do
Most owners who want both property management and asset management have to hire them separately, if they can find asset management at all. We package them together, so the team running your properties day to day is the same team shaping their long-term plan.
The day-to-day, handled well.
The strategy, owned.
Network services
Refinancing a property or taking on a renovation shouldn't mean starting from scratch. As optional add-ons, Oakdale sources financing and construction management through our trusted network of partners, and coordinates the work as part of your plan.
Access to lender relationships through our network, for refinancing existing properties or funding new acquisitions.
Vetted contractors from our network and hands-on oversight, so capital projects stay on scope, on budget, and on schedule.
Network services are provided by independent third-party partners and are available as optional add-ons.
How it works
We start by understanding your properties, your finances, and what you want your portfolio to do for you, whether that's income, growth, or a plan for the next generation.
We build a business plan for each property: operating budget, capital priorities, lease strategy, and a view on whether to hold, sell, or refinance.
We run day-to-day operations and carry out the plan, bringing in financing and construction partners from our network when needed.
You receive regular, plain-language reporting on how each property is performing against plan, and we adjust the strategy as markets and goals change.
Who we serve
Large enough that the decisions matter. Too small to justify an in-house asset management team. That's where we fit.
You've built a portfolio one property at a time and want a partner who can manage it as a whole, not just building by building.
Your family owns real estate across generations or siblings. You need consistent management, clear reporting everyone can follow, and a long-term plan.
You invest on your own and want institutional-quality analysis behind your decisions, without the time commitment of doing it all yourself.
Why Oakdale
Every property gets a business plan, a budget, and regular review, the same framework large owners use to make decisions.
Operations, strategy, and partner coordination sit with one team. No finger-pointing between vendors.
Clear, regular reports that explain what happened, why it matters, and what we recommend next.

Who we are
Founder & Principal
Ry Olson has spent more than 20 years in institutional real estate asset management. Most recently, as Vice President, Asset Management at PNC Realty Investors, an institutional real estate investment manager, he prepared the annual business plans, budgets, and capital project plans for a diverse portfolio and presented them to the investment committee. He was the primary contact for asset-level lenders, monitored debt compliance, and delivered quarterly valuations and investor reporting at the property and fund level.
Before PNC, Ry was Director of Operations at a Beverly Hills real estate investment firm, overseeing asset management for its vertically integrated multifamily, office, and retail portfolio across the U.S. There he repositioned distressed assets and stabilized occupancy. Earlier, he managed a Southern California portfolio as a Real Estate Portfolio Manager, after starting his career in 2004 as a real estate analyst.
Ry founded Oakdale in 2023 to bring the same institutional playbook to independent owners: hold/sell analysis, discounted cash flow modeling, operating budgets and variance reporting, capital planning, and lender coordination. His view is simple. Owners of a few properties deserve the discipline that institutions pay for, and they should get it from one accountable partner who has sat across the table from lenders, brokers, contractors, and investment committees.
