Property Management Questions
-
How long does it take to rent a home in Arlington right now?
On average, our homes lease in 14 to 30 days, depending on the property type, price point, and location. Properties that show well, are priced right, and allow pets typically move faster. We provide weekly updates during the leasing period so you're never left wondering how it's going. -
What neighborhoods are moving the fastest?
We're seeing high demand in areas like TCU/Westcliff, Near Southside, Arlington Heights, and parts of North Arlington near Alliance. Tenants are drawn to walkability, good schools, and access to downtown or major employers. But with the right strategy, we can attract strong tenants in any part of the metro. -
Do you allow pets, and how do you screen them?
Yes — in fact, properties that allow pets typically lease faster and to a broader pool of applicants. But we’re strict. We use a third-party pet screening service that checks for breed restrictions, vaccination records, and pet behavior history. We also charge pet deposits and/or pet rent to protect your property. -
What’s your eviction rate in Arlington compared to others?
We rarely have to file. Thanks to our screening process and clear expectations upfront, our eviction rate is consistently below 1% — far lower than the local average. But if it ever becomes necessary, we handle everything start to finish. -
How often will I hear from you?
As often as you want. Some owners prefer quarterly check-ins, others want monthly updates. During leasing or maintenance issues, we’re in touch more frequently. You’ll also have 24/7 access to your owner portal — but if you want to call and talk to a real person, we’re here for that too.
