Collect Rents
Nesbitt Realty puts funds from rent 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 management company.
Keep Records
Nesbitt Realty keeps an accounting of all income and payables. We send monthly statements to the real estate investor 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 homeowner or condo association. If the tenant has violated HOA/COA covenants, we provide official notice to the renter and take steps to put the tenant 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 Northern Virginia ordinances, licensing requirements, association rules, Fair Housing laws, insurance requirements, IRS requirements.
Handle Repairs
Nesbitt Realty manages and dispatches handymen when required. We aim to have work done in a timely manner at a price and quality satisfactory to the real estate investor.
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 lease is active.
Provide a Level of Separation
This is the one duty that no landlord 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.
