When investing in a full-time property manager, it’s only natural to have questions about services and administrative processes. We understand that you wouldn’t be doing your job if you didn’t! Here at Talley Properties, our team has fielded a number of questions and concerns in our 40+ years of operation. Whether it’s your first time interacting with a property management agency or your first time with us specifically, we want you to be well-informed on who we are and what we offer our clients. We’ve compiled a list of some of the most common questions (and answers) for your convenience. Let’s dive in!
Q: What’s in it for me?
A: The mission of Talley Properties is to help clients get a satisfactory return on their investment. When it comes to marketing, our team’s proven advertising strategies and tenant screening process will surface and place qualified prospects. Talley also offers financial accountability and reporting services, including direct deposits, monthly statements, and online account portals for both owners and tenants. Constant maintenance headaches will be a thing of the past, as our team of contractors will handle both emergency calls and general repairs.
Q: How do you market my property?
A: Our aggressive marketing techniques are as diverse as they are resourceful. Thanks to the convenience and reach of modern technology, much of our marketing is digital. But we also rely on traditional signage and, of course, partnerships with local real estate agents.
Q: How does tenant screening and placement work?
A: Prospective tenants will undergo an application process in which they voluntarily supply their income, rental, and employment history. Current and previous landlord references are collected and verified. We also have direct access to an online service that allows us to review credit, eviction, and criminal history. With all this information, Talley Properties can generate a comprehensive profile of every prospective tenant.
Q: What are your accounting services?
Finances are a big part of property management, so we supervise bookkeeping and rent collection on your behalf. Our fully computerized accounting and reporting system automatically itemizes all expenses and manages bill payment for the convenience of our clients. In doing so, we also maintain strict compliance with IRS regulations. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your financial assets are in capable hands. We understand that timely payments are important for consistent records and long-term success, and we are proud to offer direct deposits that typically go through on the last business day of every month.
