We Can Help Manage Your Investment

After managing rentals in Utah for 10 years, we have observed a disturbing shift in property manager styles over the past few years. This shift is troubling and property owners need to be sure they understand these issues before they choose a manager for their rental. The consequences of selecting the wrong manager style may be more costly than you expect.

Ten most frequently asked questions

How do you find a tenant?

We utilize many resources when marketing your property. We place ads with all many local rental agencies such as Express Rentals. We also post ads on our website that link up to many search engines. We post on Craigs list and other websites and we will place a sign at the property when appropriate.

How do you qualify a tenant?

We follow the guidelines provided by Utah Landlord/tenant law. We qualify on the following: Credit, Landlord, Employment, and Criminal.

How do you determine the rent price of my property?

We do a comprehensive search of similar properties in your community. We Compare like properties and included amenities side by side with your home. Based on our extensive knowledge and experience with most communities in the area, we are able to determine the right price that will help your home to rent quickly.

How long will it take to find a tenant for my property?

There are many factors that contribute to a property’s value. Location, price and condition of the home play the largest role. It is difficult to say that your home will rent in a specific timeframe but if your property is in good condition, in a good neighborhood and priced right, it should rent quickly. A typical home will rent in 45 days on average. It could rent in a week or it may take longer than the average based on market conditions and other factors as we mentioned above.

Why is my property at good investment?

We believe there are four main benefits in owning investment property.

Income: Cash flow
Equity Buildup: While the tenant is paying your mortgage, your mortgage is decreasing
Tax Savings: Tax laws may provide a shelter for depreciation.
Appreciation: Over the past twenty years, homes in the Salt Lake area have increased in value by an average of 8% per year.

How is maintenance handled?

Our tenants have the option of emailing, faxing or calling in a non-emergency maintenance request. Our vendors are required to contact the tenant within a 48-hour window. The vendor will inspect the problem and provide a quote while onsite. If the cost is more than $200.00. We will seek the approval of our client before doing work. If the tenant has an emergency maintenance issue, they are instructed to call our 24-hour pager. We return those calls as soon as possible. These issues typically require immediate approval. You may not be notified until the following business day.
