Our Guarantees*

Leasing Guarantee

Leasing Guarantee

In the current market, owners need financial reassurances that the resident that is placed will remain for the extent of the lease. With our Leasing Guarantee you do not have to worry about your resident moving out in the middle of their lease. Our guarantee states that if a resident we place vacates before the end of the initial term, you will not pay a Leasing Commission to find a new resident (with the exclusion of residents with military orders).

Property Condition Guarantee

Property Condition Guarantee

We regularly keep you updated on the condition of your home with our photographic property assessments. However, sometimes a little extra security brings peace of mind. With our Property Condition Guarantee, you will not have to worry about the condition of your home. We guarantee that if the resident causes damage that exceeds their security deposit, we will pay the difference up to $1,000.

Eviction Protection Guarantee

Eviction Protection Guarantee

In the case of nonpayment of rent, we cover eviction costs up to $2,500 for a resident we placed! Even the best residents can have unforeseen financial problems. We have you covered with our Eviction Protection Guarantee.

Get to Know Our Management Services

Maintaining Rental Properties

Protecting your property starts with maintaining your property.

We provide Sarasota property management that keeps costs down while ensuring your home is in good, habitable condition. Residents may notify us of maintenance issues through their online portal or call us 24 hours a day on our emergency maintenance hotline. All the vendors we send to your property are licensed, insured, and covered by workers comp and liability insurance. This is an important consideration in order to protect an owner from potential injury liability or accidental damage to the property.

Our maintenance company is House Calls Maintenance, Inc. We provide our owners with low cost solutions to necessary maintenance by providing quick effective repairs whenever possible to minimize cost while maintaining the quality of your investment and keeping the residents happy.

During the course of the lease, we want to make sure that the resident is taking care of the property and following the terms of the lease. So, we do periodic drive-by inspections as well as interior walk-throughs to look for maintenance issues that may need attention.

Working with owners all over Sarasota neighborhoods, including zip codes 34231 and 34241.

Leasing and Resident Placement

To effectively lease your property to the best possible residents, we market it strategically.

We visit the property and do a complete market analysis with pictures and comparative data from other properties that have previously rented in the area. We’ll discuss our recommended pricing range for your property and begin to aggressively market your property. This includes placing the property on the most popular rental sites, networking with the Board of Realtors, and placing a professional sign when possible.

We know the market in Sarasota Springs, Colonial Oaks and the surrounding areas, and can find you the best residents.

When you need Sarasota property management, we facilitate showings and begin our extensive resident screening process, which includes a credit check, running a full criminal background check, checking eviction records, verifying employment and income, interviewing previous landlords, and determining the overall risk level of the applicant.

Once an applicant has been properly screened, we will have the foremost Landlord Resident attorney in the state of Florida draw up a lease which specifically protects your interests from many of the legal pitfalls of owning rental property. We will have the resident sign the lease and then forward it to you for your signature.

Full-Service Property Management

Placing a great resident is only the beginning of our Sarasota property management services.

Once the resident takes occupancy, our management services begin. This includes collecting the rent, handling maintenance and repair issues, dealing with any problems associated with the resident such as non payment of rent, early move outs, neighbor complaints, or any other resident issue.

Rents are paid by the resident into our state-regulated trust account and disbursed to owners on the 10th of each month. Owners can view their property statements at any time of day or night by accessing their own secure page on our website. If questions come up while reviewing the statement, a quick email link is available to get prompt answers from our staff.
