Your Property is in Good Hands
We strive to offer the most conscientious and professional service to our owners and tenants to meet, and often surpass, expectations. Our company is relationship-based with a large following of dedicated tenants and owners. We truly care about our clients and their properties, and it shows. In most cases, our properties are second homes or future retirement homes with owners who prefer a more “personal touch” in their property’s care. Owners can expect regular communication with updates and feedback, and we are easy to contact. Great care is taken in screening prospective tenants, and we do not handle “party houses.” Inspections are done by professional office staff with additional accidental damage coverage provided on all rental bookings.
We Know the Market
Our desert is unique from other rental markets in the US. In the Heart of the Desert, we are very well known for monthly seasonal rentals. With various short-term rental bans, this can make booking without gaps, leaving unrentable dates, a real challenge. We have specialized in seasonal rentals for years, and our professional staff work directly with prospective tenants to maximize bookings … much like piecing together a puzzle. This takes direct communication, where we excel, gaining relationships and trust through the process.
