Our Property Management Services
Central Pinellas Realty is a small family owned and operated property management company that can give you and the tenants the personal touch. You are not going to fall through the cracks. A licensed manager will personally show every property in person. We NEVER use lock boxes for showing properties to prospective tenants. This practice opens your property up to extra damage, rent scams, potentially unapproved "occupants", and lawsuits. A manager will pre-screen and accompany all prospects for the showing, and will make sure that your property is locked back up afterwards.
Our focus is on property management and not on getting a sales listing commission from you. You are never obligated to use us to sell your property. Our staff includes two dedicated property managers. We are personally involved in the rental of each property. We only get paid when you get paid so we're motivated to keep your unit rented with reliable tenants. You will find that our commission rates are very fair and we don’t nickel and dime you with unexpected fees or hidden charges. If a tenant we find and manage breaks the lease early in the first 6 months, we'll find a replacement tenant for free.
We increase your cash flow and basically pay for ourselves. Your rental unit will be shown to future tenants before the current tenants leave. This very act alone can typically save you 1-2 months of lost rent. Even better, unlike most of our local competition, we get no percentage or kickback on your repairs and we don't charge "repair coordination fees"…. ever.
Unlike other management companies, you will NOT be required to use a portal to get your statement. We're happy to email your monthly statements/repair invoices to you. Your monthly check can be directly deposited into your Florida bank account, or we can mail it, or you can personally stop by our office to pick it up. Also, we do NOT require tenants to pay rent by using a portal, which we find runs off many good prospective tenants with all of the added fees, check kickbacks, and tech issues. We've learned the hard way that old fashioned management works best for a small company, and have returned to our tried and true methods.
Our services are flexible: you may choose who you use for repair services, as long as they are insured and licensed when required. You can co-manage repairs, or we can handle everything.
