Marketing is key to finding a qualified tenant. We market your property on many different online advertising platforms, put a sign in the ground, and place an ad on our website.

When it comes to repairs and maintenance, we have an In-House Maintenance Team, as well as a trusted 3rd party vendor network.

When we are unable to make a repair in-house, we leverage our trusted 3rd party vendor network to execute the work.

We do credit checks, criminal background checks, and eviction history reports on every applicant. Our credit criteria is a 675 or higher credit score.

We preform up to 3 inspections on a property every year. Our inspections include photos and notes, and provide clear documentation when we make charges against the security deposit. Properties are inspected annually in the Winter. Then, when a resident moves in and out, we also preform inspections using a digital format with photos and notes as well. We are all about documentation!
