Letting us assist you in finding a tenant, will relieve you of many time-consuming tasks usually associated with securing a renter. This means you won’t have to worry about posting ads, responding to inquiries, conducting showings, or following up with potential renters, among other responsibilities.
With our expertise, we streamline the entire process for you, ensuring that you can focus on other important aspects of your life or business. Our dedicated team will handle everything from start to finish, providing you with peace of mind and the assurance that your property is in good hands. Let us take the hassle out of finding a renter, so you can enjoy the benefits without the stress.
By leveraging over 11 years of experience, our high-quality photography and marketing strategies, our efficient systems, along with our stellar online reputation, our clients typically secure tenants more swiftly than if they were to manage the process independently.

(Its easier than you think!)
The first step is to review and sign our straightforward 2-page contract to clearly establish expectations and facilitate a smooth process. You can obtain a sample by completing this form. Rest assured, we are here to address any questions or concerns you may have before you sign the contract, ensuring you feel completely comfortable as we move forward.
We will arrange a time for our photographer to capture professional photos, create a 3D virtual tour, and produce a video tour. Your valuable property deserves the best representation!Â
PLEASE NOTE: The property must be ready for the shoot. This means removing all trash and clutter, ensuring a thorough cleaning, addressing any major damages, having all appliances in place, and, if applicable, keeping all outdoor areas clean and tidy. We have just one opportunity to showcase your property to potential tenants, so let’s make it count!
Next, we will craft an attractive and informative listing for your property, making it easy for potential renters to discover it. The listing will also be shared across various platforms, including social media and YouTube. Our goal is to showcase your space to as many people as possible to ensure it gets rented!
Once the leads begin coming in (via call, text, email, social media, etc.), we will reach out to each of them and schedule showings for any qualified candidates. During the in-person showings, we will show your property and address any questions or concerns they may have. If a potential client is unable to attend an in-person showing, we will arrange a live video showing using platforms such as Skype, FaceTime, or WhatsApp. We will always ensure that the lights are turned off and the property is securely locked after each showing. Your property deserves to be treated with both respect and care.
Please keep in mind that we prequalify all prospects based on your specific criteria before conducting any showings. Our objective is not only to get it rented but to find the right tenant!
When a potential tenant expresses interest in renting your property, we will have them complete our online rental application (see sample here) and will share the results with you. This comprehensive application is designed to provide you with all the necessary information to make an informed decision. The results will include details about the prospect, their credit score, pay stubs, photo ID, and much more!
You will have the opportunity to assess the prospect according to your specific needs and past experiences. Our goal is to ensure you feel comfortable with the prospect before proceeding!
Once you’ve decided to move forward with the qualified prospect, we will help coordinate the signing of the lease and the collection of the security deposit. If you require assistance with a lease template or a digital method for collecting the deposit, we are here to help! Our goal is to ensure you are fully protected and that everything is set up correctly!
Your property has been successfully leased, and now you can begin generating income!

The time it takes for us to lease a property can differ based on several factors, including:
We recognize that each day your property remains vacant is a financial loss for you, and our priority is to get it leased as swiftly as possible! To achieve this, we invest significantly in effective marketing and ensure it gets promoted across various platforms. Our aim is to reach a broad and diverse audience so that we can find a suitable tenant quickly.
While it’s challenging to provide an exact timeframe due to the variability, generally, SMUV can typically lease a property within 30 days if the property is in good condition and located in a desirable area. However, in a slower rental market, the process may take longer.
Just as the real estate market influences sales prices, the local rental market dictates rental rates. There are three key factors that determine how much rent your property can command:
Once we have the details about your property, we will conduct a market analysis to establish a starting price. We evaluate all our vacancies on a weekly basis, making necessary adjustments to either the price or our marketing strategies to ensure a quick rental.
Our fee typically amounts to 1 month’s rent. There are no initial costs, and we only receive payment if we successfully secure a qualified tenant who signs a lease with you. If we do not find a tenant, you owe us nothing!
The services you can expect from our team include, but are not limited to:
We consider this a no-risk, reward-only agreement. By choosing to work with us, you can save valuable time while enhancing your chances of finding a tenant. Please note that many of our clients opt for a 13-month lease (instead of the usual 12-month lease) with the renter to cover the fee. Ultimately, having a vacancy can be both costly and frustrating, and we are here to help you prevent that!
