Marketing Your Rental Property
Dedicated Leasing Specialist
During the leasing process you will work with an assigned Executive Property Manager whose only goal is to get your property marketed and get it rented quickly. During this time, you can expect us to be checking on your property and showing it to prospective tenants, as well as updating the listing on various websites, answering potential tenant questions and communicating with you. Our team will ensure that your property is presented in its best light online and in person to get you a great tenant.
Professional Rental Market Analysis
Pricing the home correctly is one of the most important factors in getting it rented quickly. Overpricing the home will cause the property to rent less quickly, costing you time and money.
We start with a competitive rental price analysis which combines market data with our professional knowledge of current market conditions to give you the most accurate rental price possible. This will get the home rented fast and for the most that the market will bear.
Professional Photos and Video Tours
If your property doesn’t look good online then prospective tenants will not want to come view it in person. We take professional photos and video tours of our homes - In our experience properties that have professional photos get rented much faster.
Online Advertising Exposure
We market your property through our property management software, then syndicates the listing out to several websites, including all the popular rental sites like Zillow, Trulia Realtor.com, Rentals, Homes.com, Apartments, to ensure your property is receiving maximum exposure to the market. .
