Owner FAQ

We will be ready within the first 24 hours after signing the contract.

Our goal is to find suitable tenants as soon as possible. In order to do this, we use various advertising platforms.

Tenants need to pay a $50 application fee. We use this fee to enable credit/background checks.

We do a market analysis in the area and come up with an average price per square foot, then apply that to the home’s square footage.

We have different payment methods: mail, office delivery, or online payments.

Yes, we can agree to make direct deposits to your preferred bank account.

Yes, we screen all the prospective tenants. The screening process covers a variety of tests. These include criminal history, credit checks, and employment verification. The tests have been chosen to lower the risk of admitting problematic tenants.

Please check with your insurer to make sure that you keep the coverage. Before starting to manage, we need to see proof of your insurance. Your insurance won't cover the tenants' personal belongings. That's why all our renters need to have adequate renters insurance. This greatly helps to solve emergency issues.

First, your tenant needs to successfully get through the screening process. When that goes well, they are obligated to pay the full security deposit. Also, they will get an appointment to sign the lease agreement. They need to read through the legal document and agree with all the terms.

Sometimes there are extra fees involved. In this case, they need to settle all of these things when signing the agreement.

When your tenant moves out, we inspect the property's condition thoroughly. They will get the approval along with the returned security deposit. That holds only true if there are no damages found. The lease gives us 30 days from the move-out date to account for the security deposit.

We do move-in and move-out detailed inspections with pictures. We inspect the home every six months. We can do drive-bys or more occupied inspections at an extra cost of $55 per inspection.

When tenants move into your property, all tenant utilities will be on their name. Some types of utilities could be catered for by the properties. For example, trash collection or water. All the owner's utilities stay attached to their name. These utilities get submitted to the office for payment. Of course, your regular cash flow statement includes the utilities.

Our lease agreements contain strict rules about rent payment delays and failures. Tenants have to quickly pay the late fees after receiving the notice. Continuing payment default results in eviction.

We will repair all damage using our licensed and professional partners. Before the repairs begin, we'll inform you about the details. When we get your permission, we'll begin the work at the earliest moment possible. All maintenance and unexpected repairs are done using high-quality vendors at their best price.

You are able to access a multitude of reports when you use our owner portal. These reports include regular statements for income, expenses, and inspections.

Allowing pets and smokers isn't something you would be obliged to do. When it comes to pets, you should keep in mind that being too strict could cost you a considerable number of prospects. There will be a one-time non-refundable pet fee paid for by the tenant.

There is absolutely no smoking allowed inside any of our rental properties. If we find evidence of smoking, then the tenants have to pay for any relevant damages.

No, property management means that you can still have a say in every decision that is made. Also, you can choose the level of how much you want to be involved in smaller-scale choices.
