Our team at Fort Property Management has been leasing and managing properties in the Lake Worth area for the last 12 years. Consequently, we have become experts in the area and the steps that are necessary to effectively market and manage your investment property. Lake Worth can be a very competitive rental market due to its close proximity to Fort Worth yet country feel. Fort would love to help you navigate this competitive market and maintain your investment long term.
Fort was started with the intention of bringing the highest level of customer service and expertise to landlords in the Dallas Fort Worth Area. Our founder previously worked for a “Big Box” property management company and saw a gap between the service being sold, and what was delivered. Fort is here to provide boutique level of service where you can get in touch with your property manager with a text or phone call and not have to sit on hold or navigate a call center. At Fort Property Management we understand that there are a number of options when it comes to hiring a Property Manager. We take pride in the opportunity to serve you as a client and will work to earn your business each and every day. Managing a rental property can be a full-time job, and for us it is! From screening tenants to handling maintenance requests, the tasks can quickly add up, making it difficult for property owners to stay on top of everything. We do these things every day and as a result can bring enormous value to help guide you through any problems that arise. Whether you own a single-family home or multiple rental units, a Fort Property Management can help streamline your operations, saving you time, money, and stress. Here are some key benefits of working with a company that knows Lake Worth extremely well.
Fort Property Management conducts thorough tenant screening, which is essential to avoid potential issues down the road. Year to date a Fort Screened tenant has not been evicted. We handle background checks, credit reviews, and rental history and employment verifications to find reliable tenants who are more likely to care for your property and pay rent on time.
Fort Property Management has established processes and procedures to ensure rent is collected promptly. We offer online portals where tenants can make payments easily, reducing the risk of late payments. In the rare event that an eviction is necessary, Fort Property Management does not charge anything additional to represent and guide you through this process as it is included as a service in our management fee. We understand that when you do not have rent coming in due to an eviction circumstance that the last thing you want to do is spend more money paying to evict your non paying tenant. At Fort Property Management we do not make a dime, unless we collect rent. We get paid when you get paid!
Navigating the complexities of landlord-tenant laws can be tricky. Each year the laws change or new items are added. At Fort Property Management we are members of the National Association of Residential Property Managers and are constantly staying up to date with the Texas Real Estate Commission to ensure our leases and management agreements are in compliance with all local, state, and federal regulations. Many cities throughout Dallas Fort Worth are also implementing Rental Registration Programs. Non compliance fees for some can exceed $2000. Fort is here to help you manage the ever changing landscape of Property Management.
One of the biggest headaches for property owners is handling maintenance and repair issues. At Fort Property Management we take great pride in maintaining quality relationships with our vendors, while also pressing them to ensure we are getting a fair price for our clients. Finding a responsive and trusted vendor for each trade can be a challenge that is hard to accomplish the one time every three years you need a contractor for that random item that is no longer working. By hiring a management company you are getting the advantage of getting guidance from a person who is dealing with those contractors on a monthly, weekly, and sometimes daily basis. Your property manager is also intimately familiar with what items should cost, as they are constantly getting bids for similar repairs. This means that you are getting a fair price for the work required.
Vacancy can be the most costly event for a landlord. Using those vendor relationship mentioned above to quickly make the property ready for save you thousands. Our goal at Fort Property Management is to have any rental property that comes vacant ready for rent in just 7 days. Once the property is ready we will market your property effectively. We market your property through all major websites, including Zillow . Fun fact - Your local Realtors normal MLS no longer syndicates to Zillow. Every experienced property manager will know this, but some agents who only perform leasing as a one off are unaware. We also perform all showings in person with a licensed Realtor, follow up on all leads and help you to set a competitive, but attainable price from the beginning so that we get the property leased out quickly.
