Our pricing strategy ensures your rental is competitive enough to attract high-quality tenants quickly while maximizing your long-term income.
How will you market my rental property?
We combine modern digital strategies with proven local methods to rent homes quickly. Our approach includes taking professional photos and video tours, creating custom listing descriptions, syndicating to all major rental websites, promoting on social media, using signage and more!
What is included in your tenant screening process?
We use a strict, legally compliant screening system to protect your investment. We evaluate credit history and payment patterns, employment stability and income levels, debt-to-income ratios, criminal background, eviction history, rental history and landlord references.
We adhere to all Oregon Fair Housing laws during our screening process.
How quickly can you place a tenant?
Timeframes vary based on the market, time of year, and condition of the property. However, thanks to our strong marketing and responsive follow-up, many rentals are filled within 2 to 4 weeks.
How is rent collected, and when do I get paid?
Tenants pay rent using our secure online portal through ACH transfers, debit card or credit card. Rent is due on the 1st of each month.
As an owner, you’ll typically receive your deposits soon after rent clears. Each disbursement includes an easy-to-read monthly statement detailing all income and expenses.
What happens if a tenant pays late or doesn’t pay?
We work hard to prevent late payments by sending automated reminders and clearly communicating rent expectations. That said, if a tenant does pay late, we enforce all late fees, contact the tenant and arrange for the payment.
If nonpayment continues, we begin the eviction process in complete accordance with Oregon law. Our team manages notices, documentation, legal steps, and follow-through, so you never have to handle conflict directly.

Will I receive financial statements and reports?
Yes! Through your secure owner portal, you can access monthly financial statements, year-end tax documents, rent payment history, maintenance invoices, inspection reports, lease agreements and repair documentation.
Do you handle lease renewals?
Absolutely. Before each renewal, we review tenant payment history and property conditions to ensure the tenant is fit to continue renting. If they are, we evaluate current fair market rental rates and make any recommendations for rent adjustments.
What happens if a tenant must be evicted?
Evictions are extremely rare due to our strong screening process. However, if eviction becomes necessary, we manage serving legal notices, filing required paperwork, communicating with attorneys, attending court hearings, coordinating tenant removal and re-renting the property quickly.
We follow Oregon’s eviction laws carefully to avoid legal issues.
Do you inspect the property?
