Tenant Screening

To give a complete picture of each applicant’s financial stability and rental dependability, our screening procedure consists of extensive background checks, credit assessments, employment confirmations, and rental history studies. By lowering risks like late payments, property damage, and lease violations, this meticulous screening procedure gives property owners a more secure renting experience.

We follow all Fair Housing laws, ensuring an unbiased and professional screening process that fosters respectful landlord-tenant relationships from the start. J. Butler Property Management keeps property owners informed throughout the screening process, providing transparency and guidance to help landlords make confident, well-informed tenant selections. By securing tenants who are financially qualified and have strong rental histories, we help reduce turnover and support long-term occupancy. 

Property Inspections

Our inspection services include move-in, move-out, and routine checks to consistently monitor the property’s condition during each tenant’s lease term. During inspections, we assess all critical areas, including structural integrity, safety features, and essential systems such as plumbing and electrical, allowing us to identify issues early and address them proactively.

Our team documents each inspection with detailed reports and photographs, giving property owners clear insights into the property’s condition over time. This proactive approach helps prevent minor issues from developing into costly repairs, protecting the property’s value and enhancing tenant satisfaction. Regular inspections also demonstrate to tenants that the property is well-managed, contributing to a positive rental experience and reducing turnover.

Rent Collection

Our team handles the entire rent collection process, providing tenants with convenient payment options, including secure online portals, to encourage timely payments. This organized approach minimizes the risk of late payments and helps maintain reliable cash flow for property owners. We set clear policies for payment deadlines and late fees, ensuring that tenants understand their responsibilities from the start. 

In cases where payments are delayed, our team follows up promptly, applying courteous but firm measures to resolve issues quickly and prevent prolonged arrears. Monthly financial reporting is another feature of our rent collection services that provides property owners with complete insight into their rental income and associated costs.
