Things You Should Know

Since we truly want our working relationship to be successful, below are a list of items you should know. These expectations and guidelines are also described in our Property Owner Manual on our resource site. CLICK HERE

  • We have years of experience managing rental properties for clients and have continued to refine our processes. Our services are best suited to property owners that are wanting to step back from the day to day of managing properties. Through the management agreement you authorize us to act and make decisions on your behalf.
  • Because of this, many of the notifications and ways you are informed are automated and sent via email ( Click Here for list of auto notifications). However, you should expect to have involvement in the following situations:
    • Pricing of your rental.
    • We will want and need your involvement in maintenance and repair items exceeding the maximum listed in the agreement.
    • We will need to know if you plan not to renew any leases or list a unit for rent if a tenant moves out (e.g. you decide to sell through one of our agents).
    • We will need your involvement if there is ever a potential eviction situation (although very rare, we have a less than 1% eviction rate)
  • You should be aware of some expected on-going maintenance costs:
    • Rekey: To reduce your liability and increase tenant safety, we control the cuts to the keys and each new set of tenants will receive a fresh set of keys. The first time we rekey a unit, we will install new Smartlocks. Although this initial rekey is an investment, each rekey thereafter is very reasonable and you will save money. Click Here for rekey costs.
    • Wear & Tear: There are often some minor items that need to be completed between tenants that may not be charged to a tenant. There are also minor items we will see that need to be completed during a time of vacancy in preparation for a new tenant such as light bulbs, smoke detector batteries, minor cleaning. For more on Wear & Tear Click Here .
    • Service Requests: We do our absolute best to keep your financial interests in mind and will approve necessary work orders as they come in. You are notified via email when a new service request is submitted by the tenant or by our team. You are welcome to reply or call with any questions.
    • Other: We will maintain sprinkler systems and any other preventative maintenance you enroll in through this form.
