The All-Important Leases
Reservation Fees
After we verify the tenant is right for your rental, we require a Reservation Fee to take the property off the market.
But the tenants don’t mind! The fee is credited to the first month’s rent when the lease is finalized.
A Strong Lease
Our leases are annual leases and are reviewed by an attorney who specializes in Landlord/Tenant Law. We continuously update our leases to stay current with the changes in local and state laws. This is a good perk because the average owner won’t be up on these laws, but we are.
Educating Tenants
We clearly define Tenant Responsibilities, and make sure every tenant understands what is expected of them, giving us the ability to enforce lease requirements.
The Traditional Security Deposit
Tenants expect to be charged a Security Deposit. We collect it when the lease is signed, and hold it in a non-interest bearing Escrow Account.
Collecting Rent
Our collection and distribution of rent is a vital part of our service to Owners. We pride ourselves on getting rent checks out to our Owners by the 15th of each month.
Tenants have several options on how they can pay, including an online option, making it very easy for our tenants. This helps assure we’ll have few problems collecting the rent.
Making Sure Your Property Stays in Good Shape
Handling Emergencies
All County® is on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All maintenance emergencies are handled quickly and in a cost-efficient manner. Take a look at how we handled the recent hail emergency in our area by clicking here: http://allcountycs.com/content/when-hail-hits-all-county-gets-rolling
Routine Maintenance Requests
Non-emergency maintenance requests must be made in writing to prevent frivolous requests. Again, tenants can use the online maintenance portal to submit their requests, so we have good records of what your property needs.
Then we get the work done! We use only licensed and insured Independent Contractors for Owners protection. We want to make sure the work is done right.
We want to make sure you get the best deal on property fix-ups and improvements! Due to the high volume of properties we handle, we secure excellent rates from our Vendors, and this savings is passed directly to our Owners.
Regular Inspections
To make sure your property stays in good shape, we do inspections on a regular basis. This way, we can ensure tenants are complying with the Rental Agreement.
Our Management Fees
A lot of people don’t want to hire a property manager because they think it will be too expensive. Nothing is farther than the truth!
A property manager will make your investment property profitable! Your property remains in good shape, you get good tenants because of our background checks, and your rent is collected on time and given to you. You can see everything through our Owner Portal online.
Our attorneys are experts in the property management field and can handle leases, evictions if necessary, and any other problems that may arise.
We keep the property rented, so you don’t have to worry about losing money on an empty property.
All this adds up to you having no hassles or middle-of-the-night calls, and getting the rent money you need. This means that the management fees are worth it!
Due to our success over the years, we have been able to keep our fees low. Our philosophy is: When you make money, we make money!.
When your property is vacant and costing you money, it is costing us, too! That means that when you hire us, you hire a team of experts that are motivated you make you a success.
