Owner FAQ
The following are common questions and answers that property owners often have.
When do I receive my monthly income?
Rent is collected at the beginning of every month and dispersed to the owner at the end of the month along with an Owner’s Statement. Rent is held in account throughout the month so funds are on hand for any maintenance or repairs that may arise during the course of the month. You may elect to receive your monthly proceeds via direct deposit or by mailed check.
What is an Owner’s Statement?
Your Owner’s Statement is a breakdown of the income and expenses for the each month and year to date. You can elect to receive a detailed statement, which will break down each and every expense as well as income, or you may elect for a standard statement.
For example, standard statement could read:
Plumbing: $100.
A detailed statement would read:
Plumbing: Repair toilet at 123 Rental Property Blvd $100.
