Client Success Stories
I believe in honesty and communication. This includes answering frequently asked questions to help you stay educated and informed. I invite you to review common questions from landlords to understand more about how I manage your rental property in Omaha and the surrounding areas.
Our marketing program and leasing services are second to none. That being said, there are many moving pieces to leasing. Asking price, local inventory levels, and even the current season are all factors in how quickly a vacancy is filled.
Your property, along with photos, will be advertised on various rental marketing directories. I guarantee my most dedicated attention to provide a timely turnaround of your vacant properties. Once a potential renter applies, I also thoroughly screen all applicants. Every adult in the household is required to apply.
All prospective tenants must comply with an extensive screening process. First, nationwide background checks are completed. This checks criminal backgrounds and the sex offender registry. After that, eviction databases are referenced. Next, I ensure they qualify financially by reviewing their credit report, verify employment, and review pay stubs and/or tax returns. I avoid overcrowding based on the number of people who will be living in the property because it can cause excessive wear and tear. Finally, I review their rental history by contacting their previous two landlords for references.
Your lease rate is going to be determined by several market factors including the condition of the property, location, time of year, and the rental rates for competing homes in the immediate area. Unfortunately, the markets that dictate lease rates vary vastly from the markets that influence value of properties. Please contact me and we can discuss this with you as it relates to your specific property.
Regular inspections of the property are completed by the property manager when taking on the rental, midway through a lease term, and when a tenant moves out, and any other time as requested by the owner. Periodic inspections are recommended to determine preventive maintenance due and to gauge the extent of tenant damages (if any) to the property.
Would you prefer to hear from me every time something occurs with the tenancy or would you prefer I simply handle situations with your best interests in mind? Advise me of your expectations to avoid confusion, and you can stay involved as much or little as you see fit. Also discuss your preferred method of communication - is it by email, your home phone, your mobile?
I do! I am on call 24 hours a day. Why worry you? That’s why you hired me! Most emergencies are prioritized and often can wait until the next day.
My rigorous tenant screening process usually prevents these types of issues; however, if a problem should arise, my clients can rest assured that I always respond promptly and appropriately. Rent is due on the first of each month and is accepted late until the third. If rent has not been paid, the eviction process begins immediately. The eviction process is started with a seven-day notice to pay or move out. Nuisance issues are handled in a similar way, with one warning given before a thirty-day notice is posted.
Yes. All of my rental property owners are notified of all maintenance issues as they arise. If a minor maintenance issue comes up with minimum costs, I simply resolve the issue and notify you, the owner – no action required on your part. For larger issues, I typically gather multiple bids and contact you for final approval.
