How Much Can I Rent My House For?
It is the first question every owner asks, and the first thing we answer. Your free rent estimate is based on four things.
Location
Bangor, Portland and Lynn rent very differently, and so do neighborhoods inside each one. We price to your street, not a statewide average.
Size and features
Bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, parking, laundry and recent upgrades all move the number.
Current demand
We see what is leasing right now and how fast, so your price matches the market this month.
Comparable rentals
We check similar homes that recently rented near you to set a price that attracts good tenants quickly.
Rent Your House With Our Own Money Behind It
Renting your house should not mean taking on every risk yourself. If it happens on our watch, it is our problem, not yours.
Pet Damage
Say yes to pet owners and rent faster. If a pet we place damages your property, we cover the first $2,000 in expenses.
Property Damage
If a tenant we place damages your property, we cover the first $2,000 in expenses.
Eviction Legal Fees
If a tenant we place must be evicted, we cover the first $2,000 in legal fees.
Rent Loss Guarantee
If a tenant we place doesn’t pay their rent, we will.
45-Day Placement Guarantee
Leased in 45 days, or finding your tenant is free. Our average is 17.8 days. If we ever take longer than 45, the leasing fee is $0.
Full terms confirmed on your call.
