What do rental property managers in Middletown do?

If this is your first-time hiring a rental property management company, you may want to understand more about what exactly property managers do.  If this quick reference doesn't answer all your questions, we're always happy to help.

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 management company.

Keep Records

Nesbitt Realty keeps a record of all money 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 required, your manager will deal with homeowner's association (or condo association). If the tenant has violated HOA/COA rules, we provide written notice to the tenant and take steps to put the tenant 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 Middletown ordinances, licensing requirements, association rules, Fair Housing laws, insurance requirements, IRS requirements.

Handle Maintenance

Nesbitt Realty manages and dispatches handymen when needed. We try to get work done in a prompt fashion at a price and quality satisfactory to the landlord.

Inspections

Nesbitt Realty inspects the property at the time of move-in at the time of move-out and from time-to-time during tenancy.

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.
