marketing & leasing
The most important part of owning a rental property is finding quality tenants. Bad tenants will almost always be expensive and miserable. At Progressive Property Management, we manage more than 1,000 properties, so we’re getting pretty good at the leasing process.
Marketing Your Rental Property to Attract Quality Tenants
The property management team has every marketing tool at their disposal because Progressive Property Management Inc. is a full-service real estate company. We’re able to give your investment property massive exposure to the right type of audience. Some of the marketing channels we use are SoCal MLS, Rent.Com, Craigslist, and Pennysaver.
We pursue all leads and inquiries promptly whether online, by phone, or in person. We will schedule showings, meet prospective tenants or agents, and greet potential tenants in person – weekdays, weekends, or evenings. We go above and beyond to not only find you a tenant, but find you the tenant that is the best fit for your property. We’ve been in this business so long that we have our own system in place to find the tenant that’s right for you.
Professional Rental Market Analysis
Pricing the home correctly is one of the most important factors in getting it rented quickly. Overpricing the home will cause the property to rent less quickly, costing you time and money.
We start with a competitive rental price analysis which combines market data with our professional knowledge of current market conditions to give you the most accurate rental price possible. This will get the home rented fast and for the most that the market will bear.
Professional Photos
If your property doesn’t look good online then prospective tenants will not want to come view it in person. We take professional photos and video tours of our homes - In our experience properties that have professional photos get rented much faster.
