Up front analysis

Lifeline Rentals’ staff will work with you to determine the best rental amount to maximize your income while minimizing vacancies. Our property managers are familiar with the rental market and will work with you to get your rental property leased quickly. If repairs are needed, we can handle getting our handymen and contractors on site to complete the work.

Marketing

You no longer need to spend your time photographing the house and uploading the information to different websites. We will place your rental property in our successful marketing system designed to get the maximum number of viewers. We photograph and describe your home to attract the tenants most likely to be interested in your rental home. The advertising is included on our website as well as numerous other rental specific websites where it will reach the largest audience. Many property management companies add on advertising fees, but with Lifeline Rentals, there is no additional charge.

Showings

Rather than you having to drop everything to go show your property, your rental property will be shown personally by one of our on-staff licensed real estate agents. We will not allow the prospective tenant to self-show your house. No one will have access to your home other than our leasing agents and property management staff.

Tenant Screening

We take most of the guesswork out of tenant screening. We obtain the standard reports: credit report and criminal history, employment verification and tenant history. But we go the extra steps to obtain eviction filing reports, confirm the employer and landlord are legitimate, and search the internet to obtain as much information as possible. Lifeline Rentals’ applications department is trained to notice red flags and to dig deeper to get the true story. We will advise you of the pros and cons of each applicant and keep you compliant with Equal Housing Opportunity laws.

Lease signing and move-in inspection

Relax. You don’t ever have to meet your tenant. Our leasing agent will meet with the tenant at the property in order to sign our lease document and move-in inspection form which itemizes the condition of the rental home in detail. Our rental agreement has been developed over time to protect everyone’s interest in the home. Don’t worry about lead-based paint disclosures. We have that covered as well.

Collection of rents

No more going by the house to collect the rent. No checking the mail or logging into your bank account to see if the rental payment has been made. Your property manager will take care of that. Lifeline Rentals gives tenants a variety of ways to make their monthly rent payments. Tenants can even sign up for automatic payments from their checking account. Security deposits and rental payments are placed into an escrow account and reconciled monthly.

Repairs and maintenance

When something goes wrong in your rental property, there’s no need to rearrange your schedule to make repairs yourself or to coordinate between tenant and contractor. When we are your property managers, we will receive the call from the tenant and take care of it all for you. Your property manager will even follow up with the tenant to make sure they are happy.

Inspections and notices

No need to fly back into town to take a look at your property. We will keep a watchful eye over it. We inspect on a regular basis to ensure that the tenant is caring for the rental home. You will receive a report with photos of the condition of your rental property. In addition, any notices that are necessary to the tenant will be made and documented in the tenant history. This includes balance due notices, Pay Rent or Quit (the notice required before eviction can be started), property condition notices and any other notice that may be needed.

Recordkeeping

Cancel the Quickbooks subscription! We maintain a file for the tenant with records of rental payments, leases and notices, inspections, repair requests and their resolution, and receipts for work done. You will receive a monthly statement showing income and expense and an annual statement for your rental property along with a 1099 for tax purposes.
