Coming Fall 2026

Your rental should feel looked after.

Local, attentive management for single-family homes across Happy Valley and the Portland area, built to protect the home, support the resident, and keep the owner informed.

Meet the founder

Aman Deswal Property owner and local manager. Current Microsoft software engineer; previously at NASA.

Property management should feel personal, not faceless.

I own four homes myself. Three are rentals with tenants, and I manage them directly. I also manage six rentals for my father-in-law. Before Valley Standard Homes opens its doors, I already know what it means to be responsible for nine homes, the people living in them, and the owners counting on clear follow-through.

My engineering work at Microsoft--and previously at NASA--shaped how I build systems and communicate. My experience as an owner shaped why those systems matter. Property management should feel personal, organized, and accountable.

Why it matters

Not just “managed.” Looked after.

Clear systems behind the scenes. Human communication out front. The business is being built from the realities of caring for nine rental homes, not from a generic property-management playbook.
