Services Offered by HCM Property Management

Marketing

HCM Property Management provides a personalized leasing representative who will show the rental property to potential tenants, answer tenant inquiries, and communicate with owners, thereby ensuring that their properties are being exhibited in the best light. The company will utilize a professional rental market analysis to determine the proper rental amount to enable the property to rent expeditiously and for the highest possible return.

HCM has a multifaceted approach to marketing the properties by posting them online through AppFolio and disseminating them to the most visited websites such as Zillow and Trulia, which will maximize the property's exposure to more potential tenants. The Gold and Platinum service plans are available for property owners and offer the flexibility for the owner to select their desired level of property management.

With respect to owner protection guarantees, the company offers a variety of guarantees, which may include rent loss, maintenance, tenant damage, and evictions, thereby giving landlords peace of mind. HCM provides complete property management services through a combination of direct written communication, expert rental pricing, and effective marketing, which ultimately creates a worry-free experience for property owners in Orange County.

Tenant Screening

HCM takes time to screen all applicants to select the most qualified candidates rather than the fastest. Their screening process goes beyond only performing credit and employment verification, also reviewing criteria such as debt-to-income ratios, eviction histories, criminal history & references from previous landlords. By performing a comprehensive search of all potential tenants, HCM can find reliable and responsible tenants, which in turn reduce potential problems for property owners and protects their investment. The end result is a smoother, less anxious rental experience for the landlord and tenant. This screening process allows property owners to have peace of mind knowing that they are placing a trustworthy tenant in their house who will look after the property as if it were their own.

Rent Collection

HCM Property Management makes renting out the home much easier and much more dependable for the owner. They send out notifications to the tenant if they do not pay on time and charge them a late payment penalty. If a tenant is not paying, then HCM will help the landlord with the eviction and quickly re-rent the home. A tenant can easily make a payment via the online 24/7 tenant portal, which will speed up the payments to the owner. By handling the entire collection and enforcement process, HCM provides the owner protection for the income that the home generates and for the investment in the home. HCM takes a professional approach to their business which decreases the landlord's stress and helps guarantee a consistent increased cash flow for the landlord, which helps the landlord have peace of mind while also preserving a smooth and efficient rental operation.

Maintenance

HCM Property Management ensures that the rental properties it manages are maintained to the highest possible standards to not only protect the landlord's investment but also to keep its tenants satisfied. Tenants can submit maintenance requests easily using the online Tenant Portal. HCM also works with highly reliable vendors to ensure rental property repairs are completed as quickly and efficiently as possible. All work performed at a rental property is documented, and the owner receives a copy of all invoices and receipts every month through the Owner Portal.

If there is an emergency after hours or on weekends or holidays, the HCM team will respond immediately to ensure the rental property is being cared for. HCM provides landlords with quality repairs at reasonable prices, along with clear communication to aid in maintaining their property, minimizing problems, and helping both owners and tenants enjoy a pleasant experience.

Accounting

HCM has a range of accounting services which ensure real-time information and control for property owners’ investments. All of HCM’s financial activity and detailed monthly reporting via the secure, automated web-based accounting system enables property owners to see how their properties are performing through the Owner Portal. Property owners have 24/7 access to income statements, rent collection information, maintenance payment records, and the other financial activity related to their properties.

Through ACH direct deposit, property owners receive funds in a timely and accurate manner. In addition, property owners also receive year-end reporting, including tax statements and 1099s, thus providing them the information needed to file their taxes quickly and easily. The combination of automation, transparency, and easy access to information simplifies the financial management of rental properties for property owners. They benefit from having clear and accurate records of all their properties, being able to track their properties in real time, and seeing an overall view of their properties’ performance. Providing this level of reporting, and making it accessible, puts landlords in a position to make sound financial decisions and have peace of mind with respect to their investment.

Eviction

To help property owners secure their investments and reduce tension, HCM Property Management provides eviction protection. Although the chance of eviction is reduced by their extensive tenant screening, which includes credit checks, criminal background checks, evidence of income and employment, and rental history, HCM is prepared to take action if problems do occur. Serving the required notifications in the owner's name, taking legal proceedings to evict tenants, and regaining control of the property are all handled by their eviction management services.

Additionally, they try to collect the unpaid rent or other debts. HCM guarantees the protection of landlords' properties, the maintenance of rental income, and the prompt resolution of vacancies by handling evictions in a professional and effective manner. Because HCM offers complete support and protection throughout the tenant lifecycle, from screening to eviction if necessary, property owners can concentrate on their assets with confidence thanks to this service.
