Serving All of Bellflower

Bellflower, a suburb of Los Angeles, was named for the Bellefleur apple commonly grown in the area’s many orchards in the early 1900s. This wholesome beginning has flourished into a thriving community of around 78,000 residents in the 90706 and 90707 zip codes; residents who pride themselves on living in “The Friendly City.” In 2015, Bellflower was honored with a Playful City USA designation as part of a national recognition program, which acknowledges the efforts of cities, dedicated to providing children with healthy recreational areas.

If you are looking to purchase a rental property in Bellflower, or have already made a property investment in this friendly and family-oriented city, Utopia Property Management can help you get the most out of your business venture. From advertising vacancies to collecting rents and keeping your property in rent-ready condition, we can take many of the cares of property ownership off of your shoulders. Here are the services you can expect from your team of Utopia Property Management professionals:

Marketing and Advertising: We keep our marketing strategies up-to-date with the latest technology and market-specific tools available. Not only will we utilize our expansive referral base and traditional property signage, but also we will list your property on the most popular rental websites, giving it an extensive online presence.

Tenant Screening: Utopia Property Management knows how important finding a good tenant is. Using a careful process of background, credit, employment, income, and identity checks, we will do everything we can to ensure you a reliable tenant.

Management and Consulting: The day-to-day managing of your Bellflower property, such as rent collection, HOA, and regulation enforcement can be a taxing concern. That is why we suggest that you leave it up to our team of expert management professionals, who are knowledgeable in all aspects of rental ownership. They are also available to answer any questions you may have about getting the most out of your property investment.

Maintenance and Repair: Since we operate under a general contractor’s license (Lic. #792427), our highly trained maintenance professionals can actually do much of the repair work and general upkeep in-house. When that’s not possible, or when it is more cost-effective, we bring in trusted third-party vendors who will take excellent care of your tenants and property.

Accounting: One of the advantages of hiring Utopia Property Management to take care of your Bellflower property is that wherever you are, you can rest assured that your financial investment is being carefully watched over. Anytime you want to see how your property is doing, you can log into your Utopia web portal and see a monthly-itemized statement, including how much revenue was collected and what expenses were paid out.

If you own rental property in friendly Bellflower, Utopia Property Management is eager to help you sign up reliable tenants and keep your property in first-rate condition. With over twenty years of experience serving rental properties in Southern California, we know how to take care of you, your property, and your tenants.
