You would hire a professional manager....

For the same reason you would hire a CPA, Realtor or Investment Broker. Professionals in their respective fields are experts in their disciplines. Experience WILL save you time and money.

PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT IS LIKELY MORE AFFORDABLE THAN YOU THINK

slide-9
SLIDE 9

A large percentage of Aspen Management’s current properties were either owner managed or managed by another firm

slide-10
SLIDE 10

A majority of those properties experienced a rent increase under our management, with the average rent increase being 15.28%!

slide-11
SLIDE 11

How would that look in practice?

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Owner rented at $2,100.00/month. Professionally rented with an average 15.28% increase - $2,420/month. AFTER management fees, the owner is pocketing $2,075.00/month making the net expense of professional management $25.00/month!!

OWNER EXECUTED LEASE VS. PROFESSIONALLY EXECUTED LEASE

slide-14
SLIDE 14

OWNER EXECUTED LEASE

We frequently see significant deficiencies in the following areas when owners execute their own leases

  • Tenant Qualification - most self managed owners

either do no background check or a limited background check. We check credit, criminal, employment and residency history which results in a better qualified tenant.

  • Leases - most self managed owners have inadequate
  • leases. Our lease is reviewed by an attorney and

amended as laws and regulations change and evolve.

slide-15
SLIDE 15
  • Lease enforcement - lease enforcement goes beyond

rent payments, most owners do not know how to enforce the terms of a lease. Aspen staff members have over 100 years of combined management experience across tens of thousands of leases. Experience matters, we have the knowledge to achieve the best outcome for our owners.

  • Move-out procedures - many self managed owners

do not know best practices for processing a tenant move out. Aspen knows the legal requirements and has tried and true move out protocols to best protect our owners.

THE TAKE AWAY

  • Professional management is more

affordable than you think

  • Professional management nets you a

more qualified, better tenant

  • Professional management protects

your investment
