Why HIRE US
As Your Portland Property Manager?
You’ll make more money – and spend less time maintaining your investment.
Some people assume that property management in Portland is expensive - but that’s not the case at all. You will actually make more money in the long run due to better quality residents that stay longer and less damage or repairs to deal with.
Eliminate the
constant run
around & stress!
It is a full time job dealing with repairs, complaints, collecting rent & coordinating vendors. Transferring these responsibilities to a good property manager allows you to enjoy the benefits without spending all your free time working.
Better screening process =
better residents!
Because of our application tools and extensive resources, we can screen more residents (with more filters) ensuring you get the best renter. We often have a waiting list of potential renters and our eviction rate is extremely low.
