Description:
Our objective is to maximize the return of our clients’ properties while protecting their investment. In support of this objective, we implement the following key steps for each property we manage:
Keep rents competitive- We conduct an in-depth analysis of the competitive space available in the neighborhood surrounding the subject property to ensure rents are not below market.
Carefully screen tenants- We contact credit bureaus, check evictions history, run criminal background checks, verify employment, verify identity, and interview former landlords to confirm prospective tenants have a high probability of meeting their financial obligation and maintaining their apartment in good condition.
Minimize operating costs- We take advantage of all opportunities to reduce operating expenses (renegotiate service contracts, fix dripping faucets and leaking toilets, repair/replace inefficient water heaters, regularly service boilers and HVAC units, seal windows and doors to prevent heat loss, etc.)
Implement preventative maintenance- Failure to perform preventative maintenance leads to greater repair costs in the long-run. Our focus on preventative maintenance helps preserve the physical integrity of our clients’ properties and keep expenses at a minimum.
Budget for capital expenditures- We work with our clients to develop a capital expenditure budget that fits their investment strategy.
