Residential Management Services

Property Evaluation
We can help you determine your property’s status in the marketplace and recommend a fair market rental value. We will also provide a list of recommend repairs so that your property will comply with state and federal requirements. We will help you receive the maximum rent while minimizing your liability exposure.

Marketing
We present your property to the widest market possible. We advertise in the newspaper, utilize a yard sign, the internet, websites, and work with other Realtors in the area. Our greatest marketing tool is our referral base of hundreds of satisfied owners and tenants from our over 58 years of serving the management and rental needs of this community.

Screening
We thoroughly screen applicants with regard to their ability to pay the rent, we check employment, credit, criminal background, and rental history. Each applicant and occupant 18 years of age and older must complete a three (3) page Texas Association of Realtors Residential Lease Application.

Leasing
As a member of the Texas Association of Realtors, we use their leasing forms and addendums. These forms and addendum provide you with the maximum protection if a dispute should arise.

Move in / Move Out Inspections
Tenants are required to inspect the property and complete a Residential Lease Inventory and Condition Form upon move in. The property is inspected upon move-out and the two forms are compared. These inspections help ensure the proper deductions, above normal wear and tear, are made from their deposit.

Deposits
Tenants are required to pay a Security Deposit on or before the execution of the lease. The amount of the Security Deposit will vary depending on the amount of the rent and type of property. In a property where pets are allowed (Note: each owner determined if pets are allowed or not, and if Pets are allowed what kind of pets are allowed) a Pet Addendum is used and an additional deposit, as well as a one-time non-refundable payment, may be required.

Rent Collection
Rent is due on the 1st of the month and considered late on the 5th of the month. Our rent collection procedures are fair but firm. In the event eviction is necessary, we can handle all aspects of the eviction process.

Maintenance
We handle maintenance and emergency repairs. When your property requires maintenance or repairs, we use independent contractors that have been checked out by our management staff. Over time, we have found some of the best contractors in their specialties. Most of these contractors have provided service to our owners for many years.

Insurance
In addition to your Fire and Extended Coverage Insurance Policy, we require that you maintain an “Owners, Landlord and Tenant Liability Policy”. This coverage will help protect all involved against a wide range of losses.

Accounting /Owner Statements
You will receive a monthly accounting of all income and expenses, and a year-end statement along with a Form 1099.

Equal Housing / Fair Housing
We will adhere strictly to the U S Department of HUD Federal Fair Housing Code and the National Association of Realtors Code for Equal Opportunity. We are members of the National Association of Property Managers.
