Are you familiar with fair housing and landlord/tenant laws in the VA jurisdiction ?                                                                   Virginia Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (VRLTA).

Are you aware of the laws about lead based paint and disclosure to tenants?

Do you have relationships with contractors that ensure you can get 24 hour service at reasonable prices?

Do you have a reliable means to determine fairmarket rent and returns on your investment property?

Do you know and have the proper notices and legal process to deal with non-paying tenants?

Do you have a current, professionally crafted lease and related agreements/forms to minimize your exposure to liability should a tenant sue?

If you have answered "no" to any of the above 7 questions, it might be prudent to hire a professional management team. The cost of one bad decision could more than offset the cost of hiring a professional manager to help you avoid the pitfalls of rental property ownership.

Tenant Profile

Prospective tenants submitted for your approval have been thoroughly qualified. We run credit checks, criminal history, verify employment and contact prior landlords for references.

Property Inspection

An extensive written report is generated prior to tenant occupancy noting the complete interior and exterior condition of the premises and fixtures. Interim inspections are conducted every six months throughout the tenancy with a final inspection being made after tenants have vacated. This schedule ensures the continued marketability of your property and keeps you apprised of its condition.
