What to Expect from Professional Property Management with People’s

Lower Vacancy Loss
and Qualified Tenants

Vacancy is expensive, and many landlords forget that it’s a huge part of the rental process. If you offer a well-maintained property that’s priced correctly and in a great neighborhood, you should have no problem renting it out quickly.

We provide extra support, with great marketing, strategic property showings, and ongoing communication with potential renters.

Renting your home out quickly to the best possible tenant, and for the most amount of money, is the only way to have a successful rental experience. We screen tenants thoroughly and consistently, looking for renters with a history of positive tenancies. We talk to landlords. We look at income. We make sure we’re placing a reliable and responsible renter in your property.

Protected Assets, Increasing Values with Responsive Maintenance

Having a local property management team that can respond quickly to emergencies, keep an eye on your home, and resolve tenant disputes is invaluable, and allows you to focus on growing your portfolio and having better investment results.

We inspect your home regularly, drive by it at least once a month, and communicate frequently with tenants to ensure there isn’t any deferred or unreported maintenance, and to ensure they have everything they need to feel safe and happy.

Free Rental Analysis

Knowing the rental value of your Auburn investment property is crucial to earning as much as you can on your investment. The market is fluid and changing all the time. But don’t worry – we keep up. Talk to us about your rental property or your entire portfolio. We’ll take a look at your home and evaluate its location, size, condition, and amenities. We know the local tenants and what they’re willing to pay. We’ll find the right price.

Remember that overpricing your home can be just as catastrophic financially as under-pricing it. You don’t want a long vacancy period, and you don’t want to attract tenants who have been rejected elsewhere. Count on our data and experience – we’ll find just the right rent.

We had never worked with a property management firm before leasing a home through Peoples Real Estate for the past year. I dealt with Joe Brannon on numerous occasions and he was always very professional and friendly. Any requests or concerns were promptly responded to and/or taken care of. We were always given plenty of notice for any appointments or inspections. It was a win/win situation!
-Peggy P.

I have been renting through People's for 2 1/2 years . The staff have been very accompanying for all our needs. They call me or reply within 24 hrs of any service request I put in. The rental portal is an outstanding service..... easy to use and convenient. I would highly recommend People's Realty to anyone. The owners and staff in the Kent office is Primo.
