As Your Lindenhurst Property Manager, We Take Care of Everything.

Marketing

Marketing a rental property means more than just putting up a listing. It involves making the property ready, setting the right rent amount, reaching qualified renters through the right platforms, and presenting it in a way that drives interest, showings, and strong applications.

Resident Placement

We follow a consistent and thorough screening process that includes income, credit, rental history, and a case by case review of criminal background. Placing the right resident reduces missed rent, damage, and turnover while protecting your investment and providing peace of mind.

Rent Collection

We make sure you get paid on time, every time. Residents can pay online, by check, or in cash. If rent is late, we follow up promptly, and while legal action is rarely needed, we are prepared to act. Owner draws go out by the 10th, and you stay informed through reports and a 24/7 portal.

Maintenance

We inspect each property twice a year to catch issues early. When maintenance is needed, residents submit requests through their portal or contact us directly for urgent matters. We use trusted vendors to handle repairs quickly and keep you informed without constant disruptions.

Accounting

You get full visibility into your property’s financials with digital statements, receipts, and year end summaries. Everything is stored in your secure portal, so you can view transactions, download documents, and track performance anytime without waiting for emails or paper reports

Eviction Protection

If a resident we placed needs to be evicted, we will coordinate with the attorney and cover up to $1,500 of the legal cost. Evictions are rare thanks to our screening process, but when they do happen, we oversee the process so you are not left dealing with it.
