Professional Management
Services That We Provide

ADVERTISING & MARKETING -. The property will be advertised on the ALLEN Realtors website, Zillow, Trulia, Hot Pads, and social media.  We will also post a professional “For Rent” arm sign on your property. 

SHOWINGS – Though our office hours are 9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday, our property managers are available to show your property to prospective tenants seven days a week. 

SCREENINGS – Each applicant older than 18 is required to complete an application form. We qualify potential tenants based on the following information: 

• Credit History – A good credit rating is required, but each applicant is evaluated depending upon his or her individual circumstances. 
• Work History and Employer References – Applicants must be employed with their current employer for six months or longer or have verifiable previous employment for at least six months. If an applicant is self-employed bank statements and tax returns will be required to verify income. 
• Rental History and Landlord References – Good rental references from previous landlord or management companies is helpful, if possible. 

PREPARATION & EXECUTION OF LEASES – We will prepare a lease and all related documents on your behalf, and will also perform a move-in walk through and complete a formal move-in condition report. 

MAINTENANCE & VENDOR RELATIONS – We will coordinate, screen and schedule all maintenance calls and repairs as authorized by you in a prompt manner.  Landlord-Tenant law requires that heating and plumbing issues be resolved immediately, if possible.

PAYMENT OF RECURRING & OTHER EXPENSES – We will process the owner’s homeowner’s association dues (if applicable), insurance, taxes or any other recurring and operating expenses. Copies of all these disbursements will be included with your monthly property financial statement.

PREPARATION OF YEAR-END STATEMENTS – An IRS Form 1099 form identifying gross miscellaneous income will be forwarded to the owner and IRS in February for the previous year.

EVICTIONS – We will coordinate and supervise the process of timely evicting tenants in cases of delinquency or noncompliance of other lease terms.

TENANT MOVE-OUTS – We will negotiate lease renewals, but if the tenant chooses to move out we will deliver to them a package outlining the move-out procedures. A physical inspection of the property will be done and a move-out condition report will be completed. We will also process the tenant’s security deposit as required by the Residential Landlord Tenant Law in the State of Washington. 

CONSTANT COMMUNICATION – All of our property managers carry a cell phone and are reasonably accessible. In addition we are Internet accessible and e-mails are downloaded several times a day. There is a manager on call 24 hours a day for after-hour emergencies.
