Property Management Made Simple
Managing Your Rental Property Stress You Out?
Are you currently self managing your rental properties but desire to distance yourself or remove headaches/weekend phone calls, stress, and the busy work that comes with self managing?
Do you currently use a property management company but they have grown in size with too many departments and don’t provide you the personal service you once had before?
We understand your situation. Not only are we are experienced property managers, but we also own rental properties too! So we know the pain and headaches that come with self management or from using a subpar management company.
The solution we provide is full service property management to a select group of property owners. To be a successful landlord and keep happy tenants, you don’t have to give up your sleep, personal time, or the quality of service to your tenants. Services include: finding and screening new tenants, leasing, rent collection, managing tenants, managing repairs, maintenance, providing owner distributions & reporting, evictions, make ready, and more!
We have been in your shoes before and want to help you keep your rental property business profitable. Your business is our business!
Property Owner Benefits
Smaller Management Company
One of the biggest frustrations owners experience with large property management companies is getting passed from department to department just to get something done. As companies grow, communication can become disconnected, and one department may not always know what another is doing. That may work for the management company, but it does not always work well for the property owner.
We take a different approach.
To provide a higher level of service to both our owners and their tenants, we operate as a small, integrated team. Everyone works together, communicates directly, and stays connected to what is happening with your property.
That allows us to move quickly and accurately. Something that may take another management company several days to handle can often be completed by our team the same day—sometimes within just a few hours.
We believe speed matters because time is money, especially when you own rental property.
Whether you own one rental property or a portfolio of 100, our goal is the same: provide responsive, hands-on property management without making you feel like just another account number.
Single Contact for Property Owner & Tenant
Balancing the relationship between owner and tenant is important. As an owner, having to contact four different people to solve a maintenance issue or dealing with the tenant can be frustrating. Since we manage properties as a small team it allows us to give quality service with one point of contact for both the owner and the tenants.
There is only a single management contact, no departments to speak with. This makes it easier to manage, increases the speed to action on various tasks, and keeps us all on the same page with the owner and tenants.
As your property manager, we know your property inside and out.
In-House Repairs and Maintenance
We make repairs and maintenance simple with two key differences.
First, we have an in-house maintenance team, which allows us to respond quickly and keep repairs moving. You can choose to have our team evaluate the repair, provide a quote, and complete the work, or you can continue using vendors you already know and trust. The choice is always yours.
Second, we keep maintenance expenses separate from your collected rent. Instead of automatically deducting repair costs from your gross rental income, we keep the two clearly separated. If our team completes the work, we send you an invoice. If you prefer to use your own vendor, we can coordinate with them and, when needed, pay the vendor on your behalf.
This creates a cleaner financial record, makes maintenance expenses easier to track, and simplifies bookkeeping at tax time.
You remain in control of who performs the work—you can use our in-house maintenance team, one of our trusted vendors, or a vendor of your own.
Texas Property Management in DFW, Austin, and Houston
We manage rental properties throughout the Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, and Houston metro areas, including many of the surrounding cities and communities within each market.
Our service areas are intentionally designed to give us broad coverage while still allowing our team to provide the responsive, hands-on property management our owners and tenants expect.
We do not expand into an area simply to add more properties to our portfolio. Before taking on a property, we make sure it is within an area where we can confidently provide the level of service, communication, and responsiveness our clients deserve. Properties outside of our primary service areas may still be considered on a case-by-case basis and can be discussed during our initial meeting.
Our approach is simple: quality over quantity. We would rather manage the right number of properties exceptionally well than overextend ourselves just to grow.
Quality Service Competitive Fees
Story Property Management is a boutique property management company. Make no mistake, we work to make sure our quality of service and management fees matchup. We’re not the cheapest management company in town, but we are also not the most expensive, by far. Our fees are lower, yet competitive.
Our owner/clients understand the importance of quality service means more than quantity of rentals we serve.
Because we (“The Story’s”) own rental properties too, we manage your property as if it was our own.
We understand that owning rental properties is a business and we make your business, our business.
