Extensive experience working with contractors. We always receive at least three bids on any work being done. Our industry experience vetting contractors allows to avoid common pitfalls.
Smart rent increases. We closely monitor occupancy and comparable rental rates to ensure we’re priced appropriately to get the most out of your investment. Balancing turnover against rent increases is difficult, but vital to ensuring a well managed building.
Well managed buildings. Managing dozens of our own buildings has shown us the value in upkeep. It is far more cost effective to take care of small repairs and issues when they arise than to let them spiral into larger, more costly problems.
Monitoring The Central Oregon Market. This goes hand in hand with rent increases. We keep a close eye on current market conditions, this helps us understand when we should increase rent and when we should be more conservative.
