Welcoming You Since 1957
A Legacy of
Connection
Since 1957, Goldrich Kest, also known as GK, has been elevating the lives of residents in California and beyond by providing rental home communities that embrace our founders’ philosophy of compassion and inclusiveness. As European emigres escaping Nazi persecution, Jona Goldrich and Sol Kest deeply understood the importance of having a safe and comfortable place to call home. Still a proudly family-owned business, GK now manages a diverse portfolio of over 200 properties nationwide.
Strategic Locations in
California & Beyond
The founders of Goldrich Kest initially focused their development in and around Southern California, where they had an intimate knowledge of the real estate market. Eventually, they took their market expertise to other areas in California and throughout the U.S. As GK continues to expand, we are keen on finding locations that give our residents unprecedented access to great employers and schools, as well as a variety of entertainment and retail options.
