We do work with outside vendors for a maintenance. We help screen service calls and try to walk tenants over the phone through common situations. The tenants are responsible for all basic maintenance such as cleaning, trash removal, mowing, weed eating, changing air filters, basic pest control, changing light bulbs etc... If anything above a small standard maintenance issue should arise, we will notify you to get permission to move forward. If we are unable to reach you, we do proceed forward if it is necessary or an emergency such as no water, no heat and not air. By law, these are things we must provide to them. We dispatch out vendors whom we have worked with. We would send out anyone you prefer and have noted in your file. We do have them bill you directly.

In addition, we have built an excellent reputation for responsiveness to service; which has helped us forge lasting relationships with a broad range of tenants. Our strength of retaining existing tenants and attracting new tenants is clear evidence of the level of service we provide. Communication is key and we strive to keep that line of communication flowing.

You can take be relieved to know that our experience over the years has made us as strong as we are today and that is an important key to your success with property management. If you ever want to grow your portfolio, we have a team of licensed agents here in our office that we work closely with that would be more than happy to help. There is a shortage of good rental properties in our area and we do need more in our inventory to meet the demand in our communities. McMinn, Meigs and Monore County all are experiencing a large shortage of single and multi family homes. Contact us about checking into this if it is something that you have considered.
