Property Manager – Encino
Landlords
Wish you had more time to focus on your life and less on your rental property? You would be amazed at the benefits you could reap by going through a professional property management company. Do you know the most common and significant mistake that self- managing landlords make is rushing to fill a vacancy with the first interested applicant? A professional property management company will provide the initial tenant screening which helps to lower tenant turnover and improve tenant quality. Krystle Property Management has and uses the tools to conduct comprehensive background checks as a part of the tenant screening process. Our application fee is charged to prospective tenants and includes credit, eviction and criminal background checks along with thorough rental and job references. First month’s rent and security deposit are due upon lease sign up which must be paid in guaranteed funds – NO EXCEPTIONS! Another advantage of hiring a professional management company is the advertising and branding that a management company provides. Krystle Property Management’s extensive advertising campaign reaches out to thousands of potential renters in order to help keep vacancy rates at a minimum. Maintaining positive realtor and tenant relationships helps to generate referrals, creating an extensive network of qualified renters. Advertising through means of traditional print advertising as well as keeping up with the trends of communication for the Y-generation, by means of internet advertising and social media, help to connect with the greater public. Property management companies should be knowledgeable on current market rents and whether the rental market is stagnant or fluctuating. Did you know that as of July 1, 2011, all single-family residences had to be fitted with carbon monoxide detectors whether tenant or owner occupied? Owners of multi-family leased rental dwellings, such as apartment buildings, have until January 1, 2013, to comply with the carbon monoxide law. Due to ever-changing laws (like these), as well as the increase of tenant-landlord lawsuits, not hiring a property manager could result in a devastating lawsuit. Consequently, it is of utmost importance to hire a property manager who stays current with applicable municipal, state, county and Federal Fair Housing laws and practices pertaining to real estate. Good property managers provide tenants with a 24-hour emergency maintenance phone number. They also have a pool of vendors to choose from that also are on call 24/7. If self managing, it could be headache to receive a late night emergency phone call such as a break-in or fire. Would you know who to call or have the desire to drive to your rental property at 2 a.m. on a Sunday morning? Emergencies happen at all hours of the day. If you had a property manager, maintenance repairs often come at a reduced rate and the property managers would facilitate all maintenance and turn keys from beginning to end. Periodic inspections of your rental investment are done to ensure tenants are adhering to their lease agreement. During the inspections, Krystle Property Management personnel also check for any necessary repairs which protect your precious investment. Is your tenant delinquent in rent and you’re not quite sure what to do? A good property manager has a routine protocol when dealing with delinquent tenants. They should include service of legal notices and arrange for evictions if necessary. Property managers represent you in most legal tenant-landlord conflicts, including court appearances, and facilitate you in avoiding legal encounters.
