A property manager is someone who handles all areas of the
rental process for the property owner.
A property manager is hired by owners of rental property to
assist them with finding tenants, conduct background screening,
handle rental income, arrange any maintenance work, and be
the contact person for the tenants for emergencies or other
issues.
If you are a property owner looking for management services
or a tenant looking for the right rental property to live
in, We would like to assist you with your needs.

Property Management Frequently Asked
Questions
How long will it take to rent my property?
I will recommend a rental rate and terms that I believe will
attract a qualified tenant within a reasonable time. Market
conditions vary and I can’t make any guarantees about
how fast we will get applicants. Some properties lease immediately
and others take longer. You will be provided with updates on
the status of the marketing so we can modify the price or terms
if needed.
How do I determine the rental rate?
After inspecting your home I can make recommendations to you
on items that might enhance your homes value. I can share with
you the current market situation based on the type of property
you own and recommend a rental rate. It is still your property,
I can make the recommendations – you make the decision.
Who collects the rent?
The tenant makes all payments to Integrity Rental Management
LLC. Payments are deposited into Integrity Owner Operating Trust
Account within 48hours of receipt. Security Deposits are maintained
in a separate Security Deposit Trust Account. Management fees
and any other expenses that have been authorized will be deducted
from the gross rent and the net balance is sent to you. Statements
and net rent checks will be sent out as close to the 10th of
the month as possible.
What happens if the tenant does not pay the rent?
In the lease signed by the tenant there is a grace period in
which to have the rent paid. Any tenant that has not paid by
the expiration of the grace period will show up on a tenant
late report generated the day after the grace period. At that
point, there is an attempt to contact the tenant by phone to
remind them of payment. If no contact or payment is received,
we proceed with the necessary steps allowable by state laws
to remove the tenant from the premises if necessary. If the
tenant still does not pay or make arrangements based on individual
circumstances then eviction procedures will start. If necessary
we will go to court, arrange to get a “writ of restitution”
and follow through with arrangements to have the tenant vacate
the premises.
What happens if the tenant has a maintenance
problem?
The tenant contacts the office to report all maintenance problems
or concerns. During non-office hours, the phone is forwarded
to a home phone or cell phone. If I am out of contact for a
period of time then an emergency phone number will be supplied
on the office voice mail for the tenant to call.
Maintenance will be arranged based on the “repair limit”
that was established in the management contract. If the repairs
needed exceed the $ amount established in the management agreement
then every attempt will be made to contact you for input.
Please note: If you cannot be reached and it is an emergency
situation that cannot wait, then I will handle the emergency
immediately, based on need, judgment and experience, to protect
your property from suffering any further damage.
Does retaining a management company mean I won’t have
any problems with the property or tenants?
If you own rental property there is always a risk of problems
occurring. Whether the problems are related to maintaining the
property or dealing with the tenant there will be problems that
need to be addressed and resolved. Retaining Integrity Rental
Management LLC to manage your property will help eliminate some
but maybe not all potential problems. These problems that can’t
be avoided will be handled as quickly and professionally as
possible. We can do our best to screen applicants but
sometimes things may slip through the cracks or a tenant may
have circumstances that change them greatly. Integrity Rental
Management gives their guarantee that we will do our best to
avoid as much as possible.
