and phone calls but may wait until business hours to do so. We respond 24/7 to leasing and
maintenance calls.
-

Q: Do I get to see the lease or sign it?
A: As agent to our owners, we typically sign the lease on the owner’s behalf.
The lease is between the tenant (lessee) and owner (lessor). If the owner prefers to sign
the lease, we can arrange that outside of our normal online e-signature capability.

portfolio and sell properties you no longer wish to hold.

Large multi family community owners may be paid later in the month or at month end, depending on the
size of the community and the owner’s reporting preference.

Q: How is rent collection handled?
A: Our tenants have the ability to pay online, through the tenant portal.

cell phone app to pay their rent on the go. We make it convenient and easy for our residents to pay us.
