We are a full service property management company that has built our systems and pricing around the philosophy that how we operate on a daily basis should be the way we would want to be treated. We maintain focus on managing homes for more money, placing strong tenants and keeping costs in control for repairs and maintenance. Because of the efficiency of the systems we have in place, that allows us to keep our rates at 8% for monthly management with no lease renewal charges, no charges to oversee work orders, no fees to oversee insurance matters or even evictions should that occur. The only other fee we have is the lease up fee of 50% of one month's rent. This covers our professional marketing photos, commission we offer to a Realtor representing a qualified tenant and our intake processes.
Because we focus on keeping costs in check, we also complete a thorough property intake process. We make sure the a/c filters are new and that the incoming tenants are set up with the a/c filter subscription service as required by their lease, we flush a/c drain lines, we clean and change out faucet aerators for improved water flow, we remove any clogged drains and complete basic paint touch up as necessary at no charge. By being proactive, we have found we save on reduced work orders for these items. See a comparison of our fees and services compared to other management companies.

The 1st and often most important part of marketing a property is accurately determining the rental rate. We will work with your goals in mind and determine the highest possible return on your investment. In determining the rental rate of the property under management we will do extensive research and comparable analysis. We will provide you with documentation of our findings and work hand in hand with you in helping you decide on a monthly rental rate.

What Our Property Managers Do For You;
When your property is being marketed, you will receive weekly updates from our office. This kind of communication is key in making sure you understand the steps being taken to lease the property in a timely manner. We have dedicated leasing agents available seven days a week for showing properties.
Prior to marketing the property we help set the right price through a Comparative Rental Analysis in order to market the property swiftly. Our leases also allow us the opportunity to market the property 30 days in advance before the current tenant vacates the property. This helps minimize the vacancy of the property and maintains better cash flow.
75 days prior to a lease expiring, we will be in contact with you to lay out a strategy to either find a new tenant or explore extending the current lease. In most cases, if the tenant has had good payment history, we will review the current rental rates and make a determination to either raise rents or keepthem the same, depending on the decision the owner makes based with the information we provide.
Keeping the current tenant will generally result in better occupancy and fewer costs. If the home becomes vacant, the home has to be rekeyed and there will also be a reletting charge so any rental gain will quickly be offset by the additional charges. This will all fit into the rental strategy.
Tenant and Owner online account access and payment services are provided. Along with the following:
What We Charge and Why:

This report includes photos and is delivered in a PDF format. The cost is $125 per inspection.
