Property Management is Personal

There’s a lot that sets our property management services apart from those of our competitors. What we’re most proud of, however, is our ability to create customized plans for your property. There’s no one way to lease a home; and your property’s needs are likely different from the needs of other rental properties.

When we decide what we’ll focus our efforts on, our plans are based on what you’re trying to accomplish and where this particular property fits into your long term investment goals. Maybe we need to make some improvements to attract better tenants. Perhaps the neighborhood is changing, and that’s going to impact your rental value.

We meet you where you are. The property management plans we come up with are going to help you have a better rental experience. We believe in consistency and routine. We also understand the importance of flexibility.

Strategic Marketing and Tenant Screening

You can’t have a successful rental experience without a successful leasing experience.

Effective leasing begins with the right marketing and advertising. We’re hard at work putting together a listing that’s informative and visually appealing. We know how to attract tenants, move them into the showing process, and ultimately collect an application.

The screening process is fair, detailed, and consistent. We’ll check credit and criminal history. We’ll verify income and evaluate rental history.

We will prioritize finding residents we can trust to pay rent on time, take care of your property, and follow the requirements of the lease agreement.

You can trust our leasing process to reduce vacancy while delivering a high-quality resident and maximum rental values.

Transparent Rental Property Accounting

As your Palo Alto property managers, we’re not just managing your property. We’re also managing your money.

That’s a responsibility we take seriously, and you can expect detailed, accurate, and transparent financial reports and accounting statements when you need them.

Log onto your owner portal and take a look at your income and expenses over the course of a month, quarter, or year. Ask us for detailed financial reports that drill down into the data you need.

We believe in saving money for our owners. You’ll see the value when you examine maintenance invoices, review turnover and retention statistics, and understand that our commitment to customer satisfaction helps us do a better job managing your investment property.

Aborn has been really great to work with. I used them to manage my rental for the last 7 years or so and they have been consistently helpful and very competent at tending to the things that inevitably go wrong with houses. Perhaps best of all, they found wonderful tenants that took great care of the place.
