Minimize Vacancy

Our goal is to minimize the vacancy period of your property with effective and inexpensive marketing techniques. This starts with proper presentation of your actual unit, as well as the ads we run. We make sure your property is presented in the best possible way, and we go out of our way to include outstanding photos and videos to show your unit under the best light. The better the presentation, the better the results.

We post to a network of sites and search engines, and even use some strategic premium ads when needed. We use our ads to sell your property by focusing on what your particular home is known for. Not just what utilities and appliances are included, but features of the community; what kinds of restaurants, shopping, and businesses are close.

Marketing is key to successful rentals. Signal Property Management provides an expert market analysis for each property we manage to maximize your return on investment. We include market analysis, internet listings, social media posts, property showings, and more for tons of exposure.

Through long experience, a great property manager will know exactly where to market your property and how to craft compelling advertising materials—a significant advantage when it comes to filling your properties quickly and avoiding long vacancies.

Tenant Screening

Experienced property managers are experts at finding good tenants, and will take care of all the details, including securing all background checks, verifying employment, and collecting previous landlord references.

We screen each tenant and make sure that he or she meets our strict requirements, thus reducing our turnover rate and keeping your unit occupied for a longer duration.

Get Paid on Time

Nothing affects your cash flow more than late or missing rent payments. We collect the rent every month and deposit it into your account expeditiously. Our collection processes are professional but tough, and we are extremely diligent in collecting rent through a systematic, timely process.

Tenants are offered a variety of ways to pay rent and incentives for paying rent on time, so you can get your money as quickly as possible. In addition, we treat each tenant respectfully and fairly, as a positive relationship with a tenant leads to timely rent payments as well as better care for your property

Your leasing agent manages the lease signing with the approved tenant, using our professionally prepared lease, and ensures that all proper contracts are executed correctly. At the same time, rents, deposits and any fees are collected in accordance with local legal and financial regulations, and recorded in your account. We also provide professional tenant education at lease signing.

Finally, the leasing agent and approved tenant conduct a walk-through to document conditions. This important walk-through assists in accurately assessing any changes in conditions when the tenant moves out.

Maintenance and Inspections

Maintenance is a necessary expense in owning a rental property, and the return on your investment can be significantly impacted without timely, cost-effective repairs and upkeep. When handled by us, you’ll save time and money and ensure repairs are completed in a professional manner, by trustworthy maintenance personnel.

At Signal Property Management we have experience with using an extensive network of contractors, vendors and in-house staff to handle property maintenance and repair work.

Professional inspections of your property both inside and out are beneficial to ensure tenants are complying with the terms of their lease and to assess property conditions.

Signal Property Management offices typically conduct move-in, periodic, and move-out inspections. Documentation and photographs from these inspections assist in determining needed maintenance and repairs to maintain your home’s value and avoid costly repairs if left unattended.
