Consultative services: From staging your property for a showing to analyzing current market trends, our local property managers will help you position your investment property for success. Your Canyon Lake residence will benefit greatly from this knowledge, as you’ll be able to charge appropriate rents and compete with other rentals in the area.
Maintenance concerns: We hold a general contractor’s license (Lic. #792427) and employ our own service and repair professionals who can manage most maintenance concerns on the spot. Our market level or lower rates and quick turnaround times enhance the experience for both you and the tenant. There is no reason for you to bother yourself with the hassles of coordinating service at your rental property. We’ll take care of everything and conduct work in an affordable and efficient manner.
