FAQ for Rent Collection & Property Management

What services are included in property management?

Our property management services include tenant screening, rent collection, property maintenance, lease enforcement, and financial reporting. We handle everything from move-ins to move-outs, ensuring a smooth rental process for both owners and tenants.

At our company, we strive to make rent collection as seamless and convenient as possible for both tenants and property owners. We offer multiple payment options, including online payments through a secure tenant portal, direct bank transfers, and traditional methods like checks. To ensure consistency and timely payments, we set clear due dates and send automated reminders to tenants. For late payments, we have a clear policy in place, including late fees if necessary, and we work with tenants to address any payment issues proactively. Our goal is to maintain healthy cash flow for property owners while fostering good relationships with tenants.

You can submit maintenance requests through our online portal or by calling our office. Please provide as much detail as possible about the issue so we can resolve it quickly.

What happens if something breaks in the apartment?

If anything breaks or needs repair, simply submit a maintenance request. Our property management team will dispatch a contractor to fix the issue as soon as possible. Emergencies are handled with priority.

Any changes or alterations to your apartment (such as painting, installing fixtures, etc.) must first be approved by management. Unauthorized changes may result in a violation of the lease terms.

Our pet policy varies by property. Please check your lease agreement or contact our office to determine if pets are allowed, and if so, what restrictions and pet deposits may apply.

How do I give notice to vacate?

To give notice, simply submit a written notice to vacate at least 30 days before your intended move-out date. The specific notice period may vary depending on your lease agreement.

Security deposits are refundable, provided the property is left in good condition with no damage beyond normal wear and tear. A detailed move-out inspection will be conducted, and deductions (if any) will be itemized.

Yes, property owners can choose their level of involvement. Some prefer a hands-off approach, while others like to be involved in certain decisions, such as selecting tenants or approving major repairs. We tailor our services to meet your preferences.

If a tenant causes damage beyond normal wear and tear, we will use their security deposit to cover the cost of repairs. If the damage exceeds the deposit amount, we will work with you to pursue the tenant for additional compensation if necessary.

Yes, we offer 24/7 emergency maintenance services for tenants. This ensures that critical issues such as leaks, heating failures, or electrical problems are addressed promptly, protecting both the tenant's safety and the property’s condition.
