Tenant Screening: To narrow the list of potential candidates to only the most reliable tenants, we put each applicant over the age of 18 through a rigorous series of background checks.

In addition to maintaining relationships with a list of preferred vendors, we have a general contractor’s license (Lic. #792427), which allows our skilled maintenance technicians to do much of the work themselves. We will assess the needs of your property and find the team of professional best suited to the job.

Accounting: We know that your Burbank rental property comprises a substantial financial investment. That is why our expert accountants make it a priority to provide you with accurate, up-to-date details on your property revenues and expenses.
