Serving All of Davis

Davis is a small community in the area that was formerly known as Davisville. This area is close to the Interstate 80 and State Route 113, making it a bridge for many who commute elsewhere for work. For those who live here, having a home that you turn into a rental home is a smart decision. With the University of California, Davis campus being close by, it is almost certain that you will find tenants for this home.

We Can Help!

Turning a home into a rental home is a big step for many people. They look at all angles to see if they even have the time to be a proper landlord. But, what if you didn’t have to be the landlord for your David property? With our services, you are the landlord, but we handle the daily tasks.

We are a property management firm that handles the day-to-day tasks of rental homes in the area. We arrange for repairs when needed, ensure the property is being maintained as it should, and also handle the financial aspects that go along with having a rental home. Imagine the amount of time and stress that these services will save you when it comes to having a rental home.

In addition to this, we also help with marketing and advertising your rental home to find the perfect tenant. We utilize local and online resources to advertise your home for rent and begin taking applicants to live here once this process is started. We then offer tenant-screening services meant to help you find the best tenant for your home.
