Full-Service Management

Rural Property,
Managed Properly.

Everything the job requires for one flat 7% — including the wells, septic, fencing, and outbuildings that city managers quietly hope you never ask about.

How It Works

From First Call to Fully Managed.

1. The rental analysis. Send us the address. Within one business day you get a specific rent figure for your property, what management costs, and an honest list of anything we would repair, clean, or change before marketing it. No charge, no obligation, and no pressure if the numbers do not work for you.

2. Getting it ready. If there is work to do, we coordinate it with Verde Valley trades at their real cost. Photography, listing copy, and syndication follow. Most owners hand over keys and do nothing further.

3. Placing the tenant. Showings, applications, and a full screen — credit, background, income verification, and prior rental history. We tell you who we recommend and why, and you approve.

4. Ongoing management. Rent lands, statements arrive monthly, maintenance gets handled, and inspections happen on schedule. You hear from us when something needs your decision and not when it does not.

Included

What the Fee Covers.

Screening That Holds Up

Credit, criminal background, income verification, employment, and landlord references. The placement decision is the one that determines the next two years.

Lease Preparation

Arizona-compliant leases, addenda, renewals, and enforcement. Written to hold up if it ever needs to.

Rent Collection

Online payment, clear late policy, and consistent enforcement. Owners are paid on schedule.

Monthly Statements

Full reconciliation, itemized expenses, and year-end reporting. You can hand it straight to your accountant.

Maintenance Coordination

Vetted local trades, dispatched and supervised, billed at cost. Emergency line for the calls that cannot wait.

Inspections

Move-in, move-out, and periodic checks with photo documentation — included, not billed per visit.

Owner Questions

Before You Hand Over Keys.

What is included in the 7% fee?
Marketing and tenant placement, full screening, lease preparation and enforcement, rent collection, owner disbursements, monthly statements, maintenance coordination, periodic inspections, and compliance. No setup, renewal, inspection, or marketing charge.
Do you mark up maintenance?
No. Vendors bill their real rate and you receive the actual invoice. On rural property this matters more than most owners realize — a well pump or septic repair is a large enough bill that a percentage markup becomes real money.
How do you price acreage correctly?
Not by square footage, which is how most managers get it wrong out here. Usable land, fencing condition, barn or shop quality, water situation, road access, and privacy all move the number. A four-bedroom on five fenced acres with a barn is a different product than a four-bedroom in town.
How long does a rural property take to rent?
Usually longer to fill and much longer to turn over. The pool of tenants looking for acreage is smaller, so patience during the vacancy pays for itself in tenancies that run for years rather than months. Pricing it right the first time is what shortens the wait.
What about wells and septic?
We inspect and monitor them, keep service records, and know which local companies actually show up. Well and septic problems are the single most common surprise for owners new to rural rentals, and they are entirely manageable when someone is watching.
