Strategic and Effective Rental Property Marketing

The Petaluma rental market is always changing and we’re right here – monitoring the ups and downs of rental values, analyzing the vacancy days, and looking at the tenant trends. All of this data and knowledge contributes to a competitive advantage when it’s time to list and market your rental home. It saves you money with lower vacancies and better tenants. Our strategic and comprehensive marketing process delivers higher rents, well-qualified residents, and a leasing process that requires very little from our owners. We take care of everything.  

Pricing your property is a big part of marketing it successfully. We consider the current market rates as well as your location, size, and condition. We establish a fair rental value that reflects the market but also maximizes what you should be earning. We take great pictures, write detailed descriptions, and list your home on our website as well as all the popular platforms good tenants are using.  Look for your advertisement on Zillow, Trulia, HotPads, Zumper, and others. 

Finally, we show your home, talk to tenants, and offer applications. The marketing process is comprehensive and complete. We manage it from start to finish, reducing vacancy days and attracting the attention of as many potential renters as possible.

Placing High-Quality Petaluma Tenants

Finding a good Petaluma tenant is an important part of your rental success, but it’s not without risk. Not only do you have to worry about bad tenants posing as responsible renters, you also have to make sure you’re following all of California’s strict screening laws. You don’t have to worry when Redwood Residential is screening tenants. We understand all the federal, state, and local fair housing laws. We’re compliant and we’re also consistent. We screen for well-qualified tenants who pay rent on time and take care of your property.   

All of our tenants understand the expectations we have for on-time rental payments and property care. We rent high-quality homes to high-quality tenants, and our process is rigorous. We check credit, we verify income, and we run national background and eviction checks. Each applicant will receive a copy of our standard rental criteria so they know what we require in order to be approved for your rental home. 

Good tenants lead to on-time rent collection, efficient lease enforcement, and ultimately better rental returns. Our screening process is legally compliant while remaining thorough and strict. We won’t settle for anything less than an excellent tenant.

Preventative Maintenance Protects Your Petaluma Investment

We make it easy for tenants to report any necessary maintenance. They simply log onto their tenant portal and let us know what’s wrong. That triggers an immediate response and we have the documentation that’s necessary to track the work that’s done on your investment property. When there’s a rare emergency at your rental property, we’re available 24/7 to respond. Our tenants understand what we consider to be an emergency and they know the immediate steps that need to be taken when something is wrong.   

Our routine and emergency maintenance responses are automated and automatic. We also pay attention to the preventative needs of your property. We’ve found this protects your investment’s condition and it also contributes to tenant retention.

Owners and investors appreciate that our preventative maintenance plans prevent expensive repairs that are often unexpected and difficult to resolve. It also demonstrates to your residents that we care about the condition of your home. 

Our preventative maintenance plan includes:

  • Working with licensed and insured vendors and contractors.
  • Inspecting and servicing HVAC systems.
  • Managing pest control.
  • Checking landscaping and lawn care.
  • Conducting thorough inspections during turnovers.
  • Watching for water intrusion or leaks.
  • Caring for appliances, electrical systems, and other property functions.

Rental property owners don’t like surprises, and neither do we. We’re proactive and protective, bringing owners like you sound peace of mind.

Hi Mike. We've been here a little over a year. Alysha assigned Tony Llamas to do all the repairs here. All I can say is that you're very fortunate to have such a skilled, patient, resourceful, and sincere technician as Tony. I have total confidence in him that repairs will be done properly. He's proved himself time and time again. What a valuable resource you have !!! When Alysha was here, the interaction with Redwood RPM was very personal. We miss that. Has someone else taken her place? Can I reach out to you if need be? We plan on staying on here for the foreseeable future and are very happy with how Redwood RPM has interacted with us in the past, and we look forward to the same mutual cooperation in the future. All the best, Art & Catherine Freeman.
