Serving All of Tigard

More than 25 years ago, Utopia Management started its journey to becoming the leading property management company in California, Oregon, and Washington. Along the way, we have developed proprietary systems that have helped our clients earn the highest rate of return on their property investments. Our Utopia Referral Bases works like a word of mouth advertising platform, as our best tenants recommend people that they trust to live on your property. We attract the friends, family members, and professionals of the highest quality tenants. The result is fewer evictions and many more long-term tenants that provide you with a steady stream of passive income.

Another proprietary system that we initiate is our online portal for each client. You simply log in and get instant access to every document that we store on the system.  Detailed financial records that include the dates of rent payments and the invoices sent to us by vendors keep you in the information loop. You also have access to repair and maintenance requests, project status updates, and receipts for the payments made on your behalf. Our secure online portal is available for you to use around the clock.

THOROUGH TENANT SCREENING AND LESS THAN 1% EVICTION RATE

Placing the right tenant is the single most important step in rental management. Our applicant screening includes income, rental history, employment, and eviction search to evaluate for potential delinquency issues. We verify identification, social security cards and pay stubs, along with contacting prior landlords for recommendations, keeping the delinquency rate to a minimum. Our thorough screening process for potential tenants has consistently kept our eviction rate at less than one percent.

Utopia also provides our owners with the optional “Utopia® Eviction Protection Program” for further peace of mind.  As a management company, we have many procedures in place to assist in the elimination of potential liabilities.

  • Exceptional property protection options for owners.
