Venice Leasing and Resident Placement

Leasing your home to Venice residents is a big part of how you manage the entire rental experience. Working with an experienced, innovative team like the agents at Sarasota Management & Leasing is critical.

We take care of pricing and preparing your home, marketing the property online, showing it, and responding to resident questions and requests.

We screen carefully, knowing that a well-qualified resident is absolutely required when we want to collect rent on time, maintain your investment, and lead both you and your renters through a pleasant and successful lease term.

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.

Less Vacancy and More Income with Sarasota Management & Leasing

Marketing and Advertising

Where do we start when we’re leasing your property and placing qualified residents?

With marketing.

A strategic marketing plan helps us attract the best residents to your property.

Read More

Our team first establishes a competitive and profitable rental value. Then, we take pictures and create an attention-grabbing listing. This starts our marketing and advertising process, which targets well-qualified residents looking for a long-term Venice rental home.

Your listing will appear on our own website and on all the popular sites residents are using.

Leasing your property quickly is important because vacancies are expensive and stressful. We work quickly and we work smart – placing a great resident for at least a year.

Showing Venice Rental Homes

With our aggressive online advertising campaign and our networking within the Venice real estate and property management industry, we generate a lot of interest in your property quickly. This requires us to be responsive.

Good residents have a lot of options when they’re looking for their next home, even in a market as competitive as ours. If they don’t get a call back or a response to their inquiry, they’re not going to waste time chasing anyone down. They’ll move on.

We won’t lose prospective residents this way. We’re available, accessible, and responsive. When someone calls about your property, we schedule a showing after a bit of pre-screening.

Getting your prospective residents into the property to take a look around as soon as they’re ready is an essential part of the leasing process. It saves time and money.

Legally Compliant Resident Screening

The resident screening process is perhaps the most important part of leasing your Venice rental home and placing a resident. 

Applications will begin coming in as your home is shown, and we’re ready. We will conduct a thorough resident screening, which includes:

Read More

  • Checking credit
  • Running a background check
  • Looking for past evictions
  • Verifying income
  • Verifying rental history

The goal of any good screening process is to evaluate the risk of the applicant. We do so while following all fair housing laws.

Remember that we have a leasing guarantee, which ensures the residents we place will stay in your home and complete their lease term.
