Getting started

Switching from another manager takes about two weeks.

We request the tenant ledger, deposits and lease files from your current company, notify tenants, and set up their portal logins. You sign one agreement and we handle the handover letters.

  • Existing tenants stay in place
  • Security deposits transferred and documented
  • Your first statement arrives the following month
