LEASE AGREEMENT PROCESS
California's leasing law is complex and home renting is much more difficult in San Francisco. Therefore, the lease agreement is limited to San Francisco and must be detailed. We use the San Francisco Apartment Association Home Lease Agreement in order to stay complaint with local laws. We make sure to keep you up to date with all state, federal and local laws when it comes to your rental agreement. As the law changes, we will make all necessary changes and insert necessary annexes. For example, any rental agreement in California should reflect whether the unit is covered by the new rent control laws. It contains information about when and how the rent increases, as well as restrictions. Additionally, all leases include federal information, such as information on asbestos and lead paint. California leases must also reveal any issues with bed bugs, provide information on carbon monoxide, and smoke detectors.
SAMPLE LEASE AGREEMENT
In order to begin working together, we would need to execute a signed listing agreement which includes an agency relationship, dual agency relationship, listing agreement, MLS Listing, and all necessary disclosures.
PRICING STRATEGY
There’s no home quite like yours, and that’s a good thing. Effective pricing starts with the property’s unique features and qualities. It also considers comparable recent sales, current market conditions, and the price range that will draw the most suitable buyer. Because setting the right price from the outset is crucial,
MARKETING & ADVERTISING
We are confident that our private showing generate significant interest. We advertise on all rental portals and we market your home to other agents through TAN (Top Agent Network) which is only the top 10% agents in the city. These marketing events would all serve to drive interest in the unit.
VIRTUAL STAGING
With only 10% of prospective buyers able to visualize homes, we offer a unique Virtual Staging service platform that provides 3D renderings of a home using a selection of furniture from Restoration Hardware, Pottery Barn, Serena & Lily, and west elm.
TENANT SCREENING
We have a rigorous screening process so that we can provide you with most information as possible about prospective tenants. Prospects are sent a link via email to complete the application process. The link will auto-direct to a disclaimer page that must be read through. The platform will then request the user to adopt an e-signature if the background check is to be completed electronically. Our third party partners, Able Screening will conduct a Credit Check, Background Check, and Employment Verification. The cost is $42 per tenant over the age of 18. Once profiles are complete, we share our analysis with property owners so that we can collectively make an informed decision when selecting tenants.
