Once we’ve taken over management of your property, gotten all of the necessary paperwork in order, and have it in rent ready condition, it’s time to show it off to the world.

We pride ourselves on having one of the most comprehensive and successful marketing plans in Indianapolis. In fact, we typically rent our homes 2-3 weeks faster than our collective competition.

It’s not by dumb luck that this phenomena occurs. We put a lot of time, effort, and staffing into our marketing efforts to ensure your home is seen by as many qualified Renters as possible.

So, you are all signed up, set up, and you have a vacant property.

Vacancy, as we discuss over and over, is the single biggest drain on an investor’s return.

We’re on the same page with you, and our goal is to get the property in rent-ready shape and on the market as soon as possible.

Let’s spend some time reviewing our processes whenever we take over management of a vacant property.

Now that you are a Client of ours, how we initially proceed is dependent on the occupancy status of the home.

Prior to 2017, almost all the homes we placed under our management were vacant. Occasionally, we picked up occupied homes, but not often.

However, that’s all changed.

Now, a significant portion of homes we take on are occupied… generally from other management companies in Central Indiana.

As a result, we’ve created detailed processes on the proper way to onboard an occupied property.

Bottom line: We’re pretty good at it.

At T&H Realty, we strive to be totally transparent with our Clients and prospective Clients.

One of our core values is “Always Educating and Advising.”

Generally, this starts well before we even speak to potential Clients.

As you may know, our website is LOADED with information… from our detailed pricing breakdown, as well as other informative, insightful content.

In an effort to further facilitate this mission, we have decided to produce a series of blogs detailing the inner workings of our company. You can expect to see topics on everything from how we handle move-ins and security deposits, to how we handle evictions and turnover work.

We want our current Clients to have a firm understanding of our processes, and prospective Clients to know what we’re all about even before signing with us.

So, let’s start at the beginning… “Becoming our Client.”

*This blog is intended for Clients and Prospective Clients to further understand the Rently Self Showing System and how we utilize it to benefit our Owner Clients.*

In this blog, we want to discuss our mark-up fee. A mark-up fee is a small service fee that property management companies add to all bills that are paid on behalf of an Owner.
