Our Full Property Management Services

• Collect Rent: Tenants pay rent directly to our office. Rents are due on the first and considered late after the 5th, at which time late fees are assessed.
• Record Keeping: Full accounting records are maintained for all properties. Owners receive detailed monthly statements as well as end of the year statements. Monthly financial disbursements are made to property owners either by check or direct deposit.
