We've been in your shoes.
Citivest Construction didn't start as a contractor for hire. It began as the in-house property management and maintenance arm for Citivest's own portfolio of investment real estate — a large holding of single-family homes, condos, and similar residential properties.
That portfolio has since been sold, but the construction side lives on — now serving other property managers and owners across Southern California. The difference shows. Because we spent years managing our own units and tenants, we know firsthand what a property manager actually needs from a maintenance and repair partner: we can pull permits, give fast turns, clean documentation, and work that's done right.
We've made the turn deadlines, fielded the tenant calls, and signed off on the invoices. When you hand Citivest a work order, you're working with a team that has sat on your side of the desk — and builds to the standard we held ourselves to.

Business Administrator

We manage the clients and the pipeline; you get assigned work orders with the details and head out to do the job.

- Work orders dispatched straight to you, with the scope and unit details
- Multi-trade jobs — ideal for a multidisciplinary handyman across paint, flooring, plumbing, electrical, and general repair
- Best suited to experienced tradespeople — whether you run your own handyman practice or are building toward one
What Citivest provides
- A steady stream of work — no chasing leads
- Employee benefits including health insurance and retirement plans
- Part-time and full-time positions available
Technicians supply their own tools and transportation.
