What do property management companies in South Arlington do?

If this is your first-time considering hiring a property management company, you may want to learn more about what exactly property managers do.  If this quick reference doesn't answer all your questions, we're always eager to provide more information.

Collect Rents

Nesbitt Realty deposits rents into an escrow account and from that account we disburse funds to pay bills, income to the real estate investor and fees to the rental property manager.

Keep Records

Nesbitt Realty keeps a record of all money and receipts. We send monthly statements to the property owner and at the end of the year we prepare a 1099 tax document and an annual statement for tax preparation. These records are also available electronically if you prefer.

Deal with the Association

When necessary, your manager will deal with HOA/COA. If your renter has violated homeowner's association (or condo association) covenants, we give notice to your renter and take steps to put the renter in compliance.  We keep you apprised of notices and required actions.

Legal Compliance

Nesbitt Realty ensures that your rental property complies with state laws, local South Arlington ordinances, licensing requirements, association rules, Fair Housing laws, insurance requirements, IRS requirements.

Handle Repairs

Nesbitt Realty manages and dispatches maintenance personnel as needed. We aim to have work done in a timely fashion at a price and quality satisfactory to the property owner.

Inspections

Nesbitt Realty inspects the rental at the time of move-in at the time of move-out and from time-to-time while the tenant is occupying the property.

Provide a Level of Separation

This is the one duty that no property owner can perform. A level of separation ensures professionalism is always maintained and personal feelings do not enter into the equation. Nesbitt Realty manages tenant relations including maintenance requests, late fee notices. We deal with a laundry list of tenant problems:

  • unauthorized guests, unauthorized pets,
  • parking issues,
  • tenant cleanliness,
  • noise violations,
  • neighbor complaints, etc.

If necessary, we manage the process of prosecuting actions to evict Tenants.
