We handle all maintenance needs with licensed, bonded contractors and maintain a preventive maintenance schedule to protect property value. Emergency repairs receive immediate attention while non-emergency work requires homeowner approval above $350. Our vendors provide competitive pricing due to our high volume of business.

Our accounting team provides monthly statements and year-end tax summaries with electronic fund transfers on the 6th of each month. All expenses are documented online for client review. We handle tax reporting requirements including annual IRS Form 1099 submissions and maintain separate escrow accounts for security deposits.
Property Inspections
We conduct detailed property inspections every six months using standardized 12-page condition reports. Initial inspections document move-in condition while interim visits monitor maintenance needs. Final inspections after tenant move-out determine security deposit refunds. All reports include photographic documentation and are accessible through our client portal.
