Atlanta Condos For Sale

How Involved Is The Landlord In The Atlanta Home or Condo Rental Process?

March 31, 2012 by Thom Abbott

When a landlord/property owner contacts us about renting their Atlanta home or condominium, there is often a concern as to how involved the landlord is in the rental process. Once you have your Atlanta home or Condominium ready to rent, here are the next steps:

  • Sign the Exclusive Lease Listing Agreement with us
  • Provide us with keys and access fobs/cards (if needed)

That’s it! We then go to work marketing the home, handle all the showings, the application and tenant screening process and negotiate the terms of the lease on your behalf. Once the lease is ready, you sign it.

After your tenant is in place, you decide your next level of involvement. It may be our Self Management Program or our Full Management Program. We are happy to discuss the benefits to you of either of these programs.

Contact Us Today so we can help YOU get your Atlanta home or condominium rented!

How Do I Rent My Atlanta Home (Part 2)

March 28, 2012 by Thom Abbott

In my last post about How Do I Rent My Atlanta Home, we talked about what you need to do on the inside of your home to make it sparkle and shine to a prospective tenant. But first impressions go a long way in both buying and renting your home. And that first impression starts on the outside of your home. You’ve probably heard the saying….”curb appeal.”

So, exactly what is “curb appeal” and what do I have to do to Rent My Atlanta Home?

  • The Lawn — It needs to be mowed, driveway and curbs edged, and the landscape beds looking clean. This is all certainly “do-it-yourself” kinds of things, but if you have already moved, we can help you find a landscape company that will get this ready. You might even want to consider pricing your home rental to INCLUDE lawn maintenace. This can be one of your bigger challenges managing your rental or investment property….how  the exterior is maintained.
  • Shrubbery and/or Trees — At least make sure for your initial rental advertising period, that you have the shurbbery trimmed and neat. Again, that first impression goes along way to not only getting the rental rate you desire, but getting your home rented faster because it looks great from the outside!
  • Roofing and Siding — We are certainly NOT suggesting you have a new roof installed! But, you might want to check in your attic (if you have one) and make sure there are no obvious signs of a problem. A tenant is much more likely to let such a problem go on for a long time before they report it, and water does all kinds of damage! As for the siding, you just want to make sure things are in place, any caulking needed, etc. Remember, your Atlanta Home For Rent  is going to be occupied by a tenant, and a tenant is not inclined to walk around the house looking for issues like you would.
  • Driveway — ONLY if you have numerous stains, would we suggest a pressure wash. Otherwise, it should be fine.

GREAT! Now that you have your Atlanta Home ready To Rent, give us a call. We will make an appointment to give you a free evaluation of the market, review our unique marketing plans, tenant placement services and our cost saving way to manage your property for LESS money!

Complete our Landlord Evaluation Form and we will be in contact with you as soon as possible!

How Do I Rent My Atlanta Home?

March 27, 2012 by Thom Abbott

There can be any number of reasons that you need to rent your Atlanta home. Whether it’s a job transfer, inability to sell your home for the price you need, or maybe you have taken advantage of the market and purchased an investment property. Whatever the reason, now you are asking, How Do I Rent My Atlanta Home?

A rental home is not much different than a home that is For Sale. Priced right, in good condtion and the right location, and you can have a tenant in place quickly.  But there are several steps you need to take first.

Atlanta Rental Home PaintingPreparing Your Atlanta Home For Rent

If this is a home you have moved out of and are now renting, we first need to get “her in shape!” What exactly does that mean?

  • Spit clean and spotless — nothing will send a prospective tenant running faster than dirty carpet, bathrooms, windows, you name it…it needs to be clean!!! Whether you do it yourself, or hire a professional cleaning service, clean is mean when it comes to getting TOP DOLLAR for your Atlanta Rental Home!
  • Paint — A fresh coat of paint will go the farthest in making your home shine. It will make your home sell fresh and new, and may keep a prospective tenant in your home longer. The longer they look, the more likely they will rent. Always, always keep it neutral when you paint. You might leave a children’s room a special color, but the potential tenant may want it for a home office…so best to make it neutral. Painting can probably be done quicker or easier by a professional depending on how quickly you need it done, or how much time you have to do it yourself.
  • Mechanical/Systems/Appliances — Simply said, they all need to work, and work right. If a burner on the stove does not work, fix it. These little things will add up to less of a chance to lease your home, or later in a lease, a tenant may become frustrated that things don’t work and it could cause “problems.” Let’s not risk that…let’s just have it all working.

In our next post, we’ll talk about the exterior of the home and what needs to be done there. How about a hint? When you Rent Your Atlanta Home, you may only get one chance to make a good first impression.
