TOP 5 WAYS TO MARKET YOUR EL PASO RENTAL PROPERTY

May 24, 2019
It’s important to market your property, otherwise nobody will know that the home is on the rental market. Once you have started a marketing campaign, it’s important that you cast a wide net towards potential tenants. You want to maximize the number of people who see the property. This allows for a greater number of people to select from when you’re choosing the next tenant.

Greater exposure is always best.

Online Rental Listings: Photos and Description
It’s essential to take and post photos of the property, or people won’t be interested in your listing. They need to be able to see the home and its features. Good, high-quality photos displaying what the property offers will leave potential tenants wanting to know more. It’s also crucial to include a description of the property. Include whether it’s a single-family home and how many bedrooms and bathrooms it has. If it’s an apartment, make sure your ad mentions what floor it’s on.

This will make the property interesting to others. Make sure to include the terms and conditions of the rental, such as occupancy rules, term of the lease, move-in date, whether pets are allowed, etc. You also want your listing to reflect the amount of rent and the security deposit. Making this clear ahead of time will lead to less confusion later.

Make sure to list the property online and make a splash. Research must be done to find where the best place to post the listing is, depending upon the type of property, its location, and the goal of the owner. Make sure to include the photos of the property, as well as the description and terms, in the post on the Internet.

Professional Signage at the Property
Signage at house advertises that the home is available to rent for anybody that passes by. Most of the people who spot the sign while they drive or walk by will be people already in the area or interested in the area. Perhaps your sign will get the attention of a neighbor who knows someone looking for a home.

All of the properties we manage that are ready for rental are promoted on our website.

Benefits of Great Customer Service in Property Management

By Rob Carrillo • 01 Dec, 2020
Property Managers often have to work a balance towards pleasing clients that don't always share a common goal. Where you have a real estate investor who is trying to accomplish maximum returns while maintaining little expense, you in turn have a tenant who wants great value with affordable rent. Excellent customer service can be an effective way to accomplish getting your tenants the value that they want all while producing those ROI(return on investment) numbers that your rental property owners are looking for. Cutting Corners Unfortunately too many landlords often look towards cutting corners that only end up hurting them in the long run. Often we find landlords that forego hiring a professional property management company and try to go it alone so that they can avoid paying property management fees . Not only do they soon find themselves stuck within an industry that involves state and federal laws that they are not entirely aware of, but they also will realize that their rental property and their tenants require frequent upkeep and communication. Ignoring a tenant leads to bad blood and quickly sours a relationship. And ignoring an investment property 's needs often leads to increased costs down the road that could have been avoidable. Bring in Professionals Mismanagement and bad customer service leads to a cycle of short tenancies, more vacancies and a loss in revenue. The more investment savvy rental property owner will look towards a professional property management company, like Century 21 Haggerty Property Management, to help improve customer service and tenant relations with advanced tools that allows for constant communication, easy rent payment options, quick work order turnovers and other tenant benefits. They also provide the owners with added benefits such as deferred maintenance inspections which not only checks-in on the tenants, but will also help to catch any hidden maintenance issues that have the potential to grow into a much more expensive issue if not tended to.
