Rental Marketing And Advertising

This isn't a complex topic and as a result it's often overlooked in the grand play of property management and advertising. Responsible marketing for available rental properties is required. How many stories have you read that someone solicits a rental unit based on how it was presented online only to experience it in person and everything is absolutely opposite? 

Another angle, before the Fair Housing Act went Into effect, how common was it for discrimination to overshadow housing opportunities in rental and purchase for different individuals based on one specific aspect of the personal being and absolutely no other qualifying criteria? It was extremely common and now extremely illegal. Property management companies stay atop of the evolving fair housing laws to best understand how to properly and ethically present investment properties to qualified renters in a moral, inclusive and legal way. 

Compliance And Enforcement

Partnering with a knowledgeable and ethical property management company means they have a deep understanding of the legal landscape and can help you avoid costly mistakes. This includes ensuring that your lease agreements are legally sound, handling tenant disputes in a lawful manner, and guiding you through the eviction process if necessary.

It also means that they place value on your asset, visions and goals to help increase tenant satisfaction across the board.
