About Us
Experience You Can Trust. Accountability You Can Feel.
A Note from our Founder
For over a decade, I sat on the other side of the desk. Managing my family’s real estate trust wasn't just a job—it was the stewardship of a legacy. I learned firsthand that property management is often treated as a volume business, where individual assets are reduced to line items on a spreadsheet. I founded Haws Property Management because I realized that West Hollywood owners needed something different: a firm that combines an owner’s mindset with legal precision. As an attorney, I saw the growing 'regulatory maze' of the Los Angeles rental market becoming a minefield for owners. As an owner, I saw the frustration of hidden markups and impersonal service. By partnering with Stephen Dow—who literally teaches the industry at UCLA—we’ve built a boutique firm where your property is managed by principals, not coordinators. We don't just collect rent; we protect your equity, insulate you from legal risk, and manage your capital as if it were our own. That is the Haws Advantage.
Meet Our Team
Grant Haws, J.D.
Owner, Broker, Attorney | DRE #02439684
Grant brings a sophisticated legal and financial perspective to Southern California property management. A California native with a B.S. in Economics from BYU and a J.D. from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law, Grant has served as a Trustee and manager for his family’s multi-family real estate trust since 2011.
Having spent over a decade protecting his own family’s legacy, Grant founded Haws Property Management to give West Hollywood and LA owners what they need most: an owner’s mindset combined with legal precision. As a Certified Residential Property Manager (CCRM) and active attorney, he specializes in shielding owners from the strict regulatory complexities of the Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO) and “Just Cause” eviction compliance—turning local legal minefields into insulated, high-performing investments.
Stephen Dow, M.B.A.
Senior Operations Lead & Strategic Advisor
Stephen is a titan in the Southern California property management industry, bringing over 20 years of “boots-on-the-ground” experience to Haws Property Management. A respected authority in the field, Stephen is a Distinguished Instructor at UCLA Extension, where he literally teaches the next generation of property professionals the complex economics of asset preservation and vendor procurement.
Having optimized and scaled portfolios encompassing thousands of units across diverse California markets, Stephen bridges the gap between high-level academic strategy and daily operational reality. For our Complimentary 2026 Strategic ROI & Compliance Audit, Stephen brings this exact dual perspective directly to independent owners. He treats every audit not just as a routine check, but as a rigorous institutional review—identifying hidden maintenance markups, uncovering leakages in your Net Operating Income (NOI), and ensuring your portfolio is fully insulated against evolving LA regulatory risks.
Anika Mostazia, B.C.S.
Senior Sales Manager
Anika Mostazia leads the leasing and marketing division at Haws Property Management, ensuring that every asset in our portfolio is positioned for maximum visibility and occupied by the highest-caliber residents. Her approach to leasing is rooted in rigorous vetting, reducing owner risk before a lease is ever signed. Since joining Haws Property Management in 2023, she has been instrumental in optimizing the “Owner-First” leasing cycle—streamlining the transition from vacancy to revenue without compromising on tenant quality. Anika’s deep understanding of the West Hollywood / LA rental market and her commitment to ethical, high-standard brokerage make her a vital shield for our clients’ investments.
The Haws/Dow Advantage
Specialized Expertise. Principal Oversight.
Legal Precision & Compliance
In West Hollywood, a single compliance error can cost an owner years of income. As a lawyer-led firm, we don't "guess" with RSO registrations or "Just Cause" eviction logic. We provide a legal shield for your asset, ensuring every lease and notice is bulletproof.
The "Professor’s" Operational Model
Most managers learn on the job; we teach the job. Our workflows are built on the same rigorous operational systems Stephen Dow teaches at UCLA Extension. We bring academic-level discipline to vendor procurement, preventative maintenance, and portfolio scaling.
The Owner-First Mentality
Grant Haws spent 15 years managing his own family’s trust. We treat your capital as if it were our own. This means zero maintenance markups, a "Black Book" of vetted vendors who prioritize our buildings, and a relentless focus on increasing your Net Operating Income (NOI).
Radical Transparency
We’ve eliminated the "black box" of property management. Through secure digital portals, you have 24/7 access to audit-ready financial statements, real-time maintenance tracking, and transparent rent collection. You see what we see—no hidden fees, no surprises.
