FAQ & how we work

Answers to what owners ask most

Organized by topic. Open a question to read the answer, and watch the short video where one is available. Jump straight to a topic:

TopicAccounting & Owner Payments

How money moves each month: rent is collected, bills are paid, your distribution is released, and your statement is published.

Distributions are sent between the 10th and 12th of each month for rent collected in the prior period, once vendor invoices have posted. Direct deposits typically land within one to two business days of being released.

Statements are published to your Owner Portal at the same time distributions are released, and you receive an email notification when yours is ready. See the sample owner statement for a line-by-line example.

The reserve lets us pay small vendor invoices and utility bills without waiting for your approval or a transfer. Your agreement sets the target balance, and any amount above it is included in your distribution.

Year-end tax documents are posted in the Documents section of your Owner Portal by January 31, and a copy is mailed to the address on file.

Contact our accounting team and we will send you the form. For your protection we verify every banking change by phone before the next distribution.

TopicLeasing

How we price, market, show, and screen, and what you see at each stage.

We price from recent leases of comparable properties within your submarket, adjusted for condition, layout, and seasonality, then track showing and application activity for the first two weeks and adjust if needed.

Every adult applicant is screened for income, credit, rental history, criminal record, and prior evictions against our published criteria, which are applied consistently to all applicants.

You receive a notification when an application is submitted, and a summary of the screening result once our review is complete.

While a property is on the market you receive a weekly activity summary covering inquiries, showings, and applications.

Our leasing process is all about speed. Real Property Management Prestige has a 24/7 Leasing Line that schedules showings on vacant properties around the clock. When a prospective tenant calls about your property, they speak to a live agent who books a showing right away, instead of waiting for business hours. Fewer missed calls means fewer vacant days.Watch

TopicMaintenance

Triage, approval limits, vendors, inspections, and how after-hours emergencies are handled.

We contact you before any repair that exceeds your approval limit, and before any work that is not a habitability or safety issue. Below that limit we authorize the repair and document it on your statement.

Emergency calls reach an on-call coordinator 24 hours a day. Anything that threatens safety or causes active damage is dispatched immediately, and you are notified the same day.

Yes, if the vendor carries current general liability insurance and workers compensation, invoices us directly, and can meet our response times. Send their details to our maintenance team.

Invoices are attached to the work order in your Owner Portal and itemized on the statement for the month they posted. Inspection reports are posted to the Documents section; see a sample periodic home condition report.

TopicRenewals & Move-Outs

What happens in the last 90 days of a lease, and how turnovers are scoped and priced.

We reach out to residents 90 days before lease expiration, so there is time to agree on terms or begin marketing.

We compare current market rent to the in-place rent and weigh the cost of turnover, then send you a recommendation for approval.

We confirm the move-out date, schedule the move-out inspection, begin marketing the property, and send you a turnover scope for approval.

TopicOwner Portal
