Collect Rents
Nesbitt Realty deposits rents into an escrow account and from that account we disburse funds to pay bills, income to the property owner and fees to the rental property manager.
Keep Records
Nesbitt Realty keeps a record of all income 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 required, we deal with homeowner or condo association. If your renter is in violation of homeowner's association (or condo association) covenants, we provide written notice to the renter and take steps to put your renter in compliance. We keep you apprised of notices and necessary 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 maintenance personnel when required. We try to get work done in a timely fashion at a price and quality acceptable to the property owner.
Inspections
Nesbitt Realty inspects the property 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 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.
