Executive Home Rentals Protects Owner’s Interests
In this challenging economy, many homeowners are trying to bypass the professionals and are opting to “do it yourself.” This is true for property owners and investors renting out their homes to tenants. But sometimes, homeowners get in over their heads before their rent starts coming in. In Temecula, California, Executive Home Rentals has been protecting owners’ interests on a daily basis.
“We’re getting a lot of calls from ‘for rent by owner’ clients who thought that property management was no big deal,” says Executive Home Rentals’ Broker Owner, Tomi Lynn Whitright. “They’re finding out the hard way that what we do for them is worth every dime.” In this economy with double-digit unemployment rates, there have been a rash of evictions hitting the courtrooms in Riverside County. Evicted tenants are desperate tenants. They know that if anyone checks their credit, they’re sunk. Most for rent by owners don’t have the capability of running background checks on those wanting to lease their home. “I had one poor guy come to me, desperate, after putting a tenant in ‘on a hand shake’ and the tenant is now fighting an eviction and is 4 months’ past due on the rent. He hasn’t even been in the property for 9 months yet and has never made a single payment to the owner on time. This guy NEVER would have made it past my screening process,” comments Whitright.
“People don’t realize that Property Management sometimes means putting yourself in the hot seat,” remarks Tomi Lynn. “About a week ago, I had one of our tenants demand that we return a significant portion of her security deposit so she could get a discount on her daughters braces. The tenant had only been in the property 5 months! She went ballistic on me and a few of my staff members when she got her polite, yet firm, denial letter explaining that the security deposit would be returned AFTER she moved out. We get paid to put up with a lot of abuse from the tenants!”
Property investors receive numerous benefits from their property managers. Accurate bookkeeping, time spent with purveyors getting a property ready to rent, the ever valuable tenant screening process, broad MLS advertising and more make it worth the investment. “At Executive Home Rentals, we have a firm policy of ‘flat fees, no surprises.’ I don’t ever want an owner to open up a statement and be surprised at a charge they see there,” claims Whitright.
