Kerr Properties provides full-service maintenance coordination for residential rental properties throughout Clackamas County and east Multnomah County. Our maintenance approach is built around fast response times, reliable local vendors, and proactive planning that helps protect both the property and the owner’s investment.

By managing a limited geographic area and specific property types, we’re able to respond quickly and maintain strong working relationships with trusted contractors.

Local Maintenance Management You Can Count On

When maintenance issues arise, proximity matters. Kerr Properties only manages homes within a short distance of our office, allowing us to oversee repairs closely and coordinate solutions without delays caused by distance or overextended service areas.

This local focus helps ensure issues are addressed efficiently and correctly.

Licensed, Bonded, and Insured Vendors Only

All maintenance work is performed by licensed, bonded, and insured vendors.

A Deep Network of Local Contractors

Kerr Properties maintains a broad roster of preferred vendors across multiple trades, including plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, and general repairs. We work with multiple vendors in each category to ensure availability and continuity if one contractor is unavailable.

This flexibility helps prevent delays and keeps repair timelines predictable.

Fast Response to Maintenance Requests

Timely communication and action are critical for both tenant satisfaction and asset protection.

Same-Day or Next-Business-Day Response

Most maintenance requests are responded to the same business day. Requests received after hours are addressed the next business day, unless the issue qualifies as an emergency.

After-Hours Emergency Support

Tenants have access to an after-hours emergency line for urgent situations. When emergencies occur, Kerr Properties coordinates with the appropriate vendor to address the issue as quickly as possible.
