The following are some of the Uptown property management services we offer.

1. Quick Filling of Vacant Rentals

Are you struggling to fill one of your Uptown properties with a reliable tenant? If so, we can help!

We will market your rental property to as many prospective tenants as possible. To do so, we make use of both traditional and modern marketing methods. For instance, we will place “for rent” signs, make use of word of mouth and place advertisements on local bulletin boards. However, we will also list your vacancy on top rental listing websites and make use of social media marketing.

As a result, we can get your unit recognized in the market and land solid applicants. Typically, we are able to find a reliable and responsible tenant within a few weeks. 

2. Regular Property Maintenance

Regular rental property upkeep is key to the long-term success of your Uptown property. Not only does it allow your property to retain its value, but it also helps keep your tenants satisfied and happy, which is an essential aspect of our business.

At MTD Property Management, we will promptly respond to tenant maintenance requests. We usually respond to urgent issues within 24 hours, and others within a few days.

3. Thorough Tenant Screening

To maximize your return on investment, you need to rent to good quality tenants who will care for your investment, pay rent on time, and rent long-term.

We have a comprehensive tenant screening process that can help remove unsuitable tenants from the tenant pool. We will check every prospective tenant’s income level, credit score, as well as their rental, employment and criminal backgrounds.

Our aim is to land honest, creditworthy, respectful and responsible tenants. Thanks to our foolproof tenant screening process, we’re able to land such tenants 99% of the time.

4. Regular Rental Inspections

MTD Property Management can also ensure your property is always in good shape. An attractive property, among other things, helps keep tenant turnover rates low. And low tenant turnover rates mean more profits for you.

Usually, we inspect our clients’ units about four times for long-term leases. That is, when a tenant moves in, when seasons change, when driving by, and when the tenant moves out.

The move-out inspection, in particular, allows us to document the property’s condition in reference to its initial condition. If we find any excessive property damage, we use all or part of the tenant’s security deposit to fix the repairs. 

5. Around-the-Clock Access to Financial Insights

A rental property is a huge financial investment. As a savvy investor, you’ll want to keep tabs on its financial performance to make sure your rental property business is performing at its best.

MTD Property Management will provide you with around-the-clock access to key financial insights regarding your Uptown property.

You can expect the following financial reports:

• The balance sheet
• A general ledger
• An accounts payable report
• A monthly income statement
• An expense statement

Plus, all you’ll have to do to access these documents is log into the owner’s portal! You can keep an eye on rental income, your property management fee, and any maintenance costs.

6. On-Time Rent Collection

Are you tired of running after tenants every end of the month? If you are, we can help. We can take away the hassle and stress that comes with rent collection.

Besides renting to high quality tenants, we also have an automated rent collection system that allows tenants to pay rent easily and conveniently.

We also go through the lease agreement to ensure it has solid rent-related terms. For instance, we make sure the lease states:

• When rent is due
• Acceptable payment methods
• Amount of grace period
• Late fees
