Marketing Your Rental Property
Dedicated Leasing Specialist
During the leasing process, you will work with an assigned leasing professional whose primary goal is to market and rent your home quickly. During this time, you can expect us to show it to prospective residents, update the listing on various websites, answer potential resident questions, and communicate updates to you. Our team will ensure that your property is presented in its best light online and in person to get you a great resident.
Professional Rental Market Analysis
Pricing the home correctly is one of the most important factors in getting it rented quickly. Overpricing the home will cause the property to rent less quickly, costing you time and money.
We start with a competitive rental price analysis, which combines market data with our professional knowledge of current market conditions to give you the most accurate rental price possible. This gets the home rented fast and for the most that the market will bear.
Professional Photos and Video Tours
If your property doesn’t look good online, then prospective residents won’t view it in person. We take professional photos and video tours of our homes. In our experience, properties featuring professional photos rent much faster.
Online Advertising Exposure
We market your property through Appfolio, our property management software. It syndicates the listing to several websites, including all the popular rental sites like Zillow, Apartments.com, and Trulia.

Testimonials
Why property owners partner with us
So happy we decided to go with Flat Fee Landlord to lease our home. We were not having any luck selling and I reached out to Mo who answered all of my questions with super quick responses. Once we decided to move forward, they had all paperwork done, pictures completed and our home listed for lease within a few days and a few days later, had a tenant. They were in contact with my husband and I the entire time and VERY timely and thorough. You guys are truly the "A" team!
-Casey E., Landlord in Texas
Always immediate callback and great online portal that lets me check on my house, account, and maintenance.
-Jeff C., Real Estate Investor
I'm not sure if signing up and starting the rental process of our house with Flat Fee could have been easier. All within a week of signing the contract, I was contacted by the realtor, had pictures done, had 2 showings, and a potential tenant. Our realtor has been great to work with. Highly recommend him and Flat Fee to anyone looking to rent out their house.

Do you have any guarantees?
A 30-day guarantee on finding a tenant or you get 2 months of management fees waived once tenant is found. Also, we offer a 9-month assurance on the tenant we place. If they break the lease early for any reason, we will locate and place a new tenant at no cost to the owner. Also backed with eviction protection, where we will cover all costs of eviction (excluding legal representation fees, etc.) if eviction occurs within the first 9 months of lease start. -
Do owners communicate with the tenant, or will they know who I am?
No. We strongly encourage not communicating with the tenant. All correspondence between the tenant and owner should go through Flat Fee Landlord to ensure efficient communication and keep your mind free of property management. -
Who is responsible for HOA and utilities?
The tenant is responsible for all utilities, not including the HOA/condo fees. The property owner is responsible for continuing to pay HOA/condo fees. If the property is vacant, the homeowner must continue to pay utilities until a new tenant is placed. -
What kind of insurance do I need?
It’s best to speak with your insurance company for this information, but you can change the policy to reflect a ‘Landlord Policy.’ This is different from ‘Renters Insurance,’ which is commonly mistaken. -
Who handles things when the tenant moves out?
Our services are designed to assist with the turnover of the property as long as property management services are active at the time. We do not do this if the owner cancels their services at the end of the lease. If property management services are canceled at the end of the lease, then the owner is responsible for the move-out report and the transfer of the security deposit back to the tenant. -
How many properties do you currently manage?
We manage a portfolio of over $100 million. -

In the event of an emergency, how does that work?
We do have 24/7 phone support for after-hours emergencies. We troubleshoot as much as we can over the phone to help eliminate unnecessary expenses to the homeowner for non-emergency matters. -
Who handles lawn care/maintenance?
The resident is responsible for lawn care/landscaping unless otherwise defined in the lease agreement. If a resident doesn't manage the lawn and incurs HOA fines, then scheduled lawncare may be applied to their ledger. -
