We have been advised by Supra that Apple recently released operating system iOS 12.4 for iPhones and iPads. Some keyholders that use the eKEY Fob have experienced an issue with the eKEY app on iOS 12.4 making the Bluetooth connection between the fob and the eKEY app.

If you experience an issue with the eKEY app connecting to your fob, reset your eKEY Fob by powering it on then pressing the power button five (5) times within 10 seconds. The green light will flash quickly and the eKEY Fob will turn off when successfully reset.

If you have any questions, please call Supra Support line at 1-877-699-6787 or Bay East at 925-730-4060.

You are now experiencing the new & improved Bay East website!
You spoke and we listened & acted.

We didn’t radically change the website but we did make it more robust, cleaner, and easier to use. It is now totally responsive so it will look good and work correctly on tablets and smartphones.

Did we not get something right? Want to suggest a change or report something not working? Use the FEEDBACK tab other there on the right-hand side of the screen. Your comments, suggestions, and ideas are always welcome.

The California Association of REALTORS® has issued a Red Alert opposing SB 329. This bill will force rental property owners to accept Section 8 vouchers.

C.A.R. opposes SB 329 because some rental property owners may not want to be forced to deal with the regulations, inspections, and bureaucracy associated with some aspects of the Section 8 program.

If SB 329 is defeated, property owners may still accept Section 8 vouchers if they choose to do so.

For more information or to respond to the Red Alert, click here.

We love to help you succeed. Monday morning at 8:12 a.m. you’ll receive an email from Tricia Thomas (via SurveyMonkey) with a link to our annual membership survey. Please take a few minutes of your time to give us your opinion by opening the email and completing the survey. Once you’ve answered all the survey questions, you’ll have the opportunity to enter into a drawing for free 2019/2020 local dues (we’ll send you a $295 check to reimburse your renewed membership).

Your input helps us shape the services and programs we offer. Over 1,800 members provided feedback through the survey last year. You can see some of the new programs we’re offering in 2019, based on member input, in this brief video.

If you don’t receive the SurveyMonkey email, please check your Spam, Clutter (Outlook) or Promotional/Update (Gmail) folder.

We appreciate your willingness and time to help determine the future of Bay East.
