Full service means we take care of the work, from the first showing to the monthly statement.

Leasing and Placement

Marketing, showings, applications, lease signing and a documented Move-In Inspection Report.

Thorough Screening

A two-part application, nationwide background check and full TransUnion credit report for every applicant, paid by the applicant.

Reliable Rent Collection

Online payments, enforced late fees and rental income sent straight to you by direct deposit.

Maintenance Coordination

Trusted local contractors, lawn care and snow removal, with your approval on larger jobs.

24/7 Owner Reporting

Monthly statements, income and expenses and delinquencies, all in your online owner portal.

Evictions When Needed

Good screening prevents most problems. When it does not, we enforce the lease and handle the process.

Only Pay When Rent Is Collected

Our management fee is 10% of the rent we actually collect, not rent that is due. If we do not collect it, we do not get paid on it, so our goals always line up with yours.

FAQ

Property Management Questions

Our management fee is 10% of the rent we actually collect. Owners with a larger number of rentals may qualify for lower rates, and we are glad to put together a proposal based on your portfolio.

There is a one-time leasing fee when we place a new resident in a vacant unit. It is only charged once the lease is signed and the deposit and first month's rent are collected. Ask us for current pricing.

Never. We use trusted third-party contractors and you pay what they charge. For larger jobs, we gather bids and get your approval before any work begins.

No. You pay a percentage of the rent and any laundry or vending income we actually collect. If a unit is vacant or rent is not collected, there is no management fee for it.

Yes. Direct deposit is available to every owner we work with, so rental income reaches your account quickly and reliably.

No. There is no money down to start, and you can cancel with 30 days' notice and no exit fee.
