What services does Tower Bridge provide for rental property owners?
Tower Bridge provides full-service property management, including marketing and leasing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance coordination, legal compliance, accounting and reporting, and ongoing asset management. Our goal is to protect your investment, maximize returns, and eliminate the day-to-day stress of managing rental property. -
How do you determine the right rental price for my property?
We perform a detailed rental market analysis using local market data, comparable properties, current demand, and your property’s unique features. This ensures your home is priced competitively to attract qualified tenants quickly while maximizing rental income. -
Why should I use a professional property manager instead of self-managing?
Professional management saves time, reduces risk, and often improves profitability. We handle complex California rental laws, tenant issues, maintenance, and accounting, while leveraging proven systems and vendor relationships. This helps avoid costly mistakes, vacancies, and legal exposure. -
How do you screen tenants before placing them in a home?
Our screening process includes credit checks, income verification, employment confirmation, rental history, and background checks — all conducted in strict compliance with Fair Housing laws. We focus on placing reliable, long-term residents who treat the property with care. -
What types of properties do you manage?
We manage single-family homes, condos, townhomes, and small to mid-size multi-family properties throughout the Sacramento region and surrounding areas. -
How long does it typically take to rent out a vacant property?
While timelines vary based on market conditions, pricing, and property condition, most homes lease within a few weeks when properly prepared and priced. Our proactive marketing strategy is designed to minimize vacancy time. -
How do owners stay informed about their property’s performance?
Owners have 24/7 access to an online portal with real-time financial reports, statements, invoices, and lease information. We also provide regular communication and are always available to answer questions. When a property is vacant we send a weekly leasing reporting with details metrics on performance including number of new leads in past 7 days and number of showings. -
How is maintenance handled, including after-hours emergencies?
We coordinate all maintenance using trusted, licensed vendors. Residents can submit requests online, and we provide 24/7 emergency response for urgent issues such as water leaks, heating failures, or safety concerns. -
How do you stay compliant with California rental laws and local regulations?
California rental laws are constantly changing. We attend Legal Seminars and conferences to stay up-to-date on state and local regulations, including fair housing, habitability standards, rent control, and notice requirements, helping protect owners from costly legal mistakes. -
Do you work with out-of-area or first-time real estate investors?
Yes. We frequently work with out-of-area owners and first-time investors, providing guidance, transparency, and hands-on management so you can invest with confidence, even from a distance. Many of our clients have never seen their rental property in person.
