For Owners
By joining Wasatch Front Property Management you are getting a complete property management company. We run our business out of a professional office building. Don't be fooled! Some property managers run their business out of their homes. This means that you will most likely get an answering machine when you call them. Don't feel bad, their tenants are getting the same response.
At Wasatch Front Property Management there is always someone at our office. They are greeted by a person not a machine. This means that our clients as well as our tenants are guaranteed to get their questions answered. It also gives you peace of mind that Wasatch Front Property Management is taking care of your investment property.
Our Services
Rental Budget:
We determine a rental budget and a fair marketable rent rate for your property. The studies we compile include mortgage payments, maintenance and management costs.
Advertising:
We have proven techniques and strategies using a variety of sources to find prospective renters. When the property is rented we handle the cancellation of the ads as well. WFPM also provides a professional "For Rent" sign that we place at your rental property.
Tenant Screening:
We will thoroughly screen all replies to your property. We screen tenants by pulling a credit report, verifying their employment as well as their income, and we also interview their last two landlords to verify that this prospective tenant was a good tenant and left their last rental property in good standing. Yes, we screen our prospective tenants very hard, it is important to you that we place good people into your investment property. The early personal contact that a tenant receives from us establishes a dependable relationship.
Maintenance:
We will answer the renter's maintenance complaints and arrange for repair work. Our tenants have access to a 24-hour emergency number if a problem should arise in the middle of the night. This adds security to the tenant as well as you the investor that we are watching after your property 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
Inspections:
When a tenant checks into a property we conduct a walk through inspection on that property. This way we have on record the condition that the property was in when a tenant moves in. When that tenant leaves we use the same report to check them out. This way there is no confusion on the condition of the property after a tenant leaves. Our Leasing agents also conduct monthly "drive by" inspections on your property to make sure that the tenant is taking the best care of your rental investment. Every four months we do a comprehensive interior and exterior inspection of the property.
Security Deposits:
When a tenant pays a security deposited we quickly place those funds in a secured trust account until the lease is terminated.
Monthly Statements:
Each month you will receive a detailed statement on your property. These statements are easy to read and understand. The statement will break down the month's activity on your investment property. It will show rent collected, management fee deductions, itemized maintenance, and your net dollar amount. We also send you a three ring, tabbed binder to insert your statements as you receive them. This binder is set up for you to organize your statements and maintenance receipts for the entire year. We want to make your taxes easy at the end of each year.
Evictions and Collections:
Unfortunately, there are many tenants that are professional scam artists. That is why we take out extensive screening processes so seriously. The last thing any owner wants is a tenant than knows how to get into a property and stay there legally without paying rent or taking care of the property. We take leases with tenants very seriously. If tenants are late on rent we immediately serve them with a notice to pay rent or quit. By doing this, tenants are able to be quickly evicted. Failure to act according to the law creates liability for landlords and is one of the best reasons to use Wasatch Front Property Management.
