Guarantees nobody else in this market offers.
Most managers hand you every risk that comes with a rental. We put our own money behind ours. If it happens on our watch, it is our problem, not yours.
Say yes to pet owners and rent faster. If a pet we place damages your property, we cover the first $2,000 in expenses. Included on every plan.
If a tenant we place damages your property, we cover the first $2,000 in expenses. Included on Diamond and Platinum.
If a tenant we place must be evicted, we cover the first $2,000 in legal fees. Included on Diamond and Platinum.
We screen every applicant on credit, background, income, and rental history. We are confident enough in that process to stand behind it with our own money. If a tenant we placed stops paying, the rent still comes to you.

Our average is 17.8 days. If we ever take longer than 45, finding your tenant is free.

What a Reliable Property Manager Really Gives You
When you own buildings, something can go wrong at any time. In this short video, investor Eddie Gonnella shares how having a property manager he trusts gives him peace of mind. He can take a vacation, sleep well at night, and know Ascend is taking care of both his tenants and his properties.
17 Adams Street: a 4-unit headed for eviction, up 47.3% in 120 days.
The owner came to us with an eviction pending, two unauthorized tenants, $1,750 in outstanding rent, and not a single unit on a 12-month lease. Our Landlord Rescue program turned it into a passive investment. Here is what the next 120 days looked like.
- 1 eviction pending
- $1,750 outstanding rent
- 2 unauthorized tenants
- 0 of 4 units on a 12-month lease
- $2,375 monthly rent income
- 0 evictions pending
- $0 outstanding rent
- 0 unauthorized tenants
- 4 of 4 units on a 12-month lease
- $3,500 monthly rent income

Real monthly rent income from the 17 Adams Street rescue. Your number depends on your property and the local market.

Neighborhoods & Areas We Serve from Our Bangor Headquarters
Bangor is where we started, and most of our team still works out of the same office on Merchants Plaza. We manage rentals across the city itself:
The housing here is older than most Maine markets. A good portion of our Bangor portfolio is Victorian-era single-families and pre-war triplexes, the kind of buildings where the boiler matters as much as the rent roll. We know which contractors handle century-old wiring without cutting corners, and which ones to call when a slate roof starts shedding.
Outside the city, we work for landlords in Orono, where the University of Maine sets the rental calendar (August move-ins, May vacancies, parent co-signers more often than not), and across the river in Brewer. We also manage in Old Town, Hampden, Hermon, Veazie, Glenburn, and Holden, plus properties further out in Newport, Bucksport, Ellsworth, Lincoln, and Dover-Foxcroft when the fit is right.
If your rental is anywhere in the Penobscot Valley region and you want a manager who already knows the building stock and the contractors who service it, that's us.
Part of Our Maine Coverage
Bangor is one of Ascend’s two Maine offices, alongside our South Portland branch serving the greater Portland metro. See our for state-wide context on the topics Maine landlords ask about most: the 75-day notice rule, lead paint requirements for pre-1978 housing, heat responsibility in the lease, and how Portland’s rent control affects (or doesn’t affect) the rest of the state.
Three plans. You choose how much we carry.
Every plan is full-service management with Pet Damage protection built in. Move up and we take on more of the risk, from eviction filing and inspections to rent loss and the 45-day placement promise. No hidden fees on any of them.
Full-service management: marketing, screening, rent collection, maintenance, accounting.
- Pet Damage Guarantee ($2,000)
- Property Damage & Eviction Guarantees available as add-ons
- Eviction filing and inspections itemized
Everything in Gold, with the extras folded in.
- All three $2,000 guarantees included
- Eviction filing and inspections included
- Lower leasing fee
Everything in Diamond, plus every guarantee we offer.
- Rent Loss Guarantee
- 45-day placement, or $0 leasing fee
- Priority onboarding
- Professional photography
- Lowest leasing fee
Your exact rate depends on your property type and unit count. Ask for it on the call, with no obligation.

What This Means for Bangor Landlords:
You’re operating in a lower-cost rental market compared to many larger cities, which can attract tenants looking for value.
With average rents around $1,550/month, there is room for income stability when properties are well-managed and vacancies minimized.
A vacancy rate nearing 9–10% indicates there are opportunities for optimization: faster lease-ups, competitive pricing, and outstanding maintenance/management can make the difference.
Given that roughly 4 in 10 households rent, competition among landlords still exists — bringing professional management expertise (tenant screening, marketing, maintenance) can give you an edge.
