Frequently Asked Questions for Property Management
What types of properties do you manage?
Blue Key Property Management manages single family homes, duplexes, condos and townhomes. Our homes are generally valued from the
mid 250s and up.
How long will it take to rent my property?
We can never say with absolute certainty how long it will take to find a tenant. There are many variables that come into play such
as location, season, price and applicant quality. The more potential tenants look at your home, the faster it is likely to rent. For
that reason, Blue Key substantially invests in advertising, promotion, websites and referral systems. We follow a proven system to
find the right tenants.
What geographical areas to you serve?
Blue Key manages rental homes in the Vancouver, WA and Portland, OR metro area.
What steps do you take to lease my rental home?
Through experience, we've put together a solid rental home marketing program that includes multiple marketing segments. We use multiple
websites, search engines, referral networks, large eye-catching yard signs and corporate networks. Blue Key Property Management also
retains a web developer to take full advantage of high-tech marketing.
What if I need to sell my home?
Blue Key is a full service real estate company and can assist in helping you sell your real estate or in purchasing additional
investment properties.
Do property managers need a license?
In the states of Oregon and Washington, a property manager must be licensed with the Real Estate Division in order to manager other people's
properties. We have a Real Estate Broker license for both Oregon and Washington.
What if a tenant needs to be evicted?
Evictions are a rare occurance with us. However, when it does occur, we will handle the process for you. This is one of the most common
area's where investors/owners get in trouble. Fast evictions allow us to get the property re-rented.
How do you handle maintenance and after hours emergencies?
We handle needed maintenance on your property so you don't have to. We also have a 24/7 emergency service to protect your property against
any physical threats.
