      Yes. Estato\u00a0employs reliable, trustworthy, and skilled repairmen to handle routine repairs. We work with our clients to make small repairs before they become big problems. However, if your property needs a major repair or remodel, we have long-term relationships with repair companies that provide us discounted rates. We pass on those considerable cost savings to you.<\/p>\n

        Tenant applications are processed electronically and include credit, criminal, sex offender and past eviction background searches. Our scoring and tenant recommendation policies are built on industry standards and are followed to ultimately accept or decline prospective tenants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

        <\/p>\n
        \n
        \n
        \n

        We advertise listings aggressively online through our website, local Multiple Listing Service (MLS), and multiple listing-syndication sites that blast your listing across the internet. We also advertise on our exclusive showing appointment website.\u00a0On the ground, we place For Rent signs at the properties.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

        What fees will you charge me?<\/span><\/h3><\/div><\/header>
        <\/p>\n
        \n

        \n

        There are no hidden fees or monies due upfront. If your property is rented within 1 \u2013 60 days of listing the rate is 10%, 60 \u2013 120 days the rate is 9%, 121 days or longer the rate is 8%. Discounted monthly rates are offered at the following: (a) Clients with 2 or 3 properties start at a rate of 9% (not 10%) per month which can respectively decrease to 8% per month if the vacancy time exceeds 121 days or longer for a specific property. (b) Clients with 4 properties or more receive a flat rate of 8% per month.<\/p>\n

        The cost associated with advertising your property is recouped from the Finder\u2019s Fee (also known as a Leasing Fee) which is assessed at the beginning of the lease term and is equal to 50% of one months rent. Additionally, there is a one time $100 set-up charge per property<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

        Do you have a pet or smoking policy for properties that you manage?<\/span><\/h3><\/div><\/header>

        It is recommended that a property owner be pet friendly where possible. Our standard pet fee to charge the tenant is $250.00 for up to two (2) pets. $150.00 is non-refundable (our firm uses this money for a pet cleaning, if required) and the remaining $100.00 is refundable to the tenant if pet damages do not exceed the non-refundable portion. Please note that by not accepting or considering pets you may be limiting your rental audience. Dog breeds considered aggressive are restricted. No smoking is allowed at any of our managed properties.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
