Your time is valuable. So is your peace of mind.

According to the US Census Bureau, the national average rental vacancy rate hovers around 9%, while the nationwide network of property managers survey* reveals the average vacancy rate for professionally managed properties is about half that, coming in at 4.5%. 

*Reasons cited for this performance was local market knowledge, screening for high-quality tenants, superior customer care during tenancy, swift action against delinquent tenants, and longer lease periods. 

Here are Some of the Critical Tasks We Provide as your Property Management Company:

• Setting the right rental rates: We do the research to determine the best rental rate for your property, ensuring that you receive the perfect balance between maximizing monthly income and maintaining a low vacancy rate. 

• Collecting and depositing monthly rent payments on time: Securing payments from clients can be difficult, but we have an efficient system in place to effectively collect rent and maintain on-time payments. This is a crucial part of maintaining your cash flow. 

• Marketing and advertising your property: We know where to market your property and how to create compelling advertising materials. This is a significant aspect when it comes to filling your properties quickly and avoiding long vacancies. 

• Finding the right tenants: This is probably the most important aspect of leasing investment property. We are experienced in finding good tenants and will take care of the details including a criminal background check, credit check, verifying employment, and obtaining previous landlord references. 

• Managing tenants: In addition to finding good tenants, we will manage all aspects of the tenant-landlord relationship. We handle both routine and emergency maintenance, take care of routine inspections to ensure your property is being cared for, and manage any situations where conflict resolution is required. 

• Managing vendor relationships: We will provide the maintenance worker, tradesman, contractor, supplier, and any vendor needed to get you the best work for the best price, and we will oversee any necessary project.

• Ensuring that you're in compliance with housing regulations and property laws: There is a multitude of applicable laws and regulations to abide by when renting and maintaining your rental property. These include following local restrictions, state restrictions, (please also see the Kansas Tenant Handbook and the Kansas Residential Landlord & Tenant Act) federal regulations, and fair housing regulations. We can help you avoid renter lawsuits by keeping your property up-to-date and in compliance with each of these.

• Enabling you to invest in geographically distant properties: If you manage your own properties you are typically limited to investment opportunities near your own home. By hiring us, you can take advantage of investment deals in the Johnson, Jackson, and Wyandotte Counties without living in the same vicinity. 

• Maximizing the profitability of your money: We charge a percentage of the monthly rental rate in exchange for our services. These rates typically run anywhere from 6-10%, which is generally less than the money you would spend hiring a professional to take care of each individual need your property requires.
