Chicago Property Management Services
Services
Property Management
Do you have an investment property and need professional management services? We specialize in single-family homes in the suburbs around Chicago that rent for $1500-$3000 a month. Occasionally, we manage townhomes and condos. We are looking to add more properties owned by investors.
Leasing Service
We pride ourselves on finding great tenants! About 80% of our tenants renew their lease after the first year and most move out and get a full refund on their deposits. Bad tenants who damage your property and don’t pay rent can be detrimental and we do whatever possible to avoid that from happening.
Maintenance Coordination
Getting maintenance taken care of quickly is not only good for your property but also helps us retain good tenants. Tenants who have to wait weeks for repairs tend to not renew their lease and are more likely to move which can cost thousands in leasing fees, lost rental income, and the typical rent-ready repairs that happen between tenants.
Accounting
We email owners statements monthly so that you know what you’re receiving and what expenses were deducted. Since we don’t pay for utilities, association dues, or mortgages for owners, typically the statement is pretty straightforward and the same amount unless there is a repair.
HOA VIolations
Many homes in the Chicagoland area are part of homeowners associations which have rules that people living in the community need to abide by. We make sure the tenant has those rules and if a rule is broken, you will receive a notice that you forward to us. We follow up with the tenant and make sure the violation is corrected and if any fines have been charged, we work on collecting from the tenant.
