The owner is responsible for direct advertising costs incurred to rent his or her rental property. In many cases it is not necessary to advertise the property beyond yard signs and our website. In most cases we utilize FREE popular websites that generate responses.

In most cases owner's checks are mailed out on the 10th of each month and direct deposit is scheduled on that day. Bank processing times vary therefore funds will show up a few days later. We do our best to see that you have recieved your funds by the 15th of the month.

Tenants have until the 5th to pay their rent and many wait until that day to pay. We allow 5 additional days for checks to clear the bank before processing owners' checks.

Each and every Residential Management Agreement will specify how maintenance and repairs are to be handled. Unless otherwise stated in the Residential Management Agreement, our standard policy is to handle any maintenance or repair costing less than $500. The owner will be consulted if the repair is expected to cost more. In all cases the owner will be notified of the issue. Monies for the repair will be taken out of the rent payment unless other arrangement are made with the owner.

Each month we wil send a detailed monthly financial statement as well as any invoices for repairs or maintenance.

Our policy is to require that each owner maintain at least $500,000 of liability insurance for their protection against liability claims. In addition, it is the owner's responsibility to maintain current rental/fire insurance on their property. This is NOT the responsibility of Cope Property Management.

Our standard rate is 10% of the monthly rental rate. If extra services are requested this rate may higher, but will not exceed 15%. Late fees imposed on tenants are not passed on to the owner.

In all cases a Residential Management Agreement will be required to employ Cope Property Management services.

Each prospective tenant will be required to fill out a rental application and submit a $15 application fee to cover the cost of a credit check. References will be called to verify their information. We also required income verification. We do our best to fill your vacancy promptly, and with good tenants.

We CANNOT discriminate based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status or handicap as stated in the Fair Housing Law.
