We offer a free rental analysis using 4 trusted sources to find the most accurate rental price for your home.

🔍 How It Works

We look at several things to decide your home’s rental value:

• Property condition: Is your home up to rental market standards so it can compete in the rental marketplace? Top condition gets you top rent.
• Location: Homes in certain neighborhoods rent faster and for more money.
• Features: How many bedrooms, bathrooms, and square feet does your home have? Does it have a garage or yard?
• Market data: We use real numbers from the rental market to help you set the right price so it rents quickly and minimizes vacancy time.

⚠️ Avoid These Common Mistakes

• Spending money on upgrades that don’t increase rent.
• Using Zillow or other sites as your only guide for rent prices.
• Setting your rent based only on your mortgage payment instead of the rental market.

🔧  Faster Repairs. Happier Residents. Longer Tenancies.

Yes — but it depends on whether your property is vacant or occupied.

🏠 When the Property Is Vacant

Here’s how it works:

• We inspect the home and give you a written estimate with prices for each item.
• You can choose:
  • ✅ Do all the repairs, painting and cleaning yourself, or
  • 🔨 Have us handle everything for you.
• If you do the work, you or your contractor must complete all repairs and cleaning.
  (We can’t split the job — too many people involved causes delays.)
• If we do the work, you’ll approve the price, send funds, and we’ll complete repairs fast — about $1,000 in repairs each business day.
• Remember: Vacancy is expensive! Every empty day can cost $100–$150 in lost rent, which can add up to $3,000 or more in just 20 days.

🧍 When the Property Is Occupied

Once a resident lives in the property, Management One must handle all repairs.
Here’s why:

• 🕒 Speed matters! If repairs aren’t done quickly and correctly, residents move out 7 times faster.
• 📅 We can’t control your or your contractor’s schedule, which can cause confusion and delays.
• ⚠️ Liability risk: If a repair goes wrong and your contractor isn’t properly licensed or insured, you could be held responsible as your insurance may not pay.
• 💡 Fast, professional repairs keep residents happy — some have stayed with us for 30+ years!

🌟 Benefits When We Handle Repairs

• Residents stay longer, reducing vacancy and costly turnover repairs (which can cost $2,500–$7,000 each time).
• You enjoy hassle-free ownership — we take care of everything while you stay protected.
• You stay in control: any repair over $375 requires your approval.
