Austin’s Leasing and Property Management Specialist
The Carvajal Group is a full service leasing and property management firm specializing in the Austin area. Our team of real estate and property management professionals are committed to giving the highest level of customer service and whose dedication to our clients is unparalleled.
In today’s tough economic and financial environments, many clients cannot afford to have their real estate investments sitting vacant while waiting for a buyer. Leasing is a very viable option which can turn a vacant property into a cash flow opportunity that maximizes return on investments (ROI).
Our Services Include:
Property Marketing
Our innovative and aggressive marketing strategies ensure maximum exposure on every property we manage. Once matched with a tenant, our staff screens potential tenant(includes background, credit, criminal and reference check), prepares lease, and executes completion in remarkable time.
Move-ins/Move-outs
Move-in/move-out season can be extremely busy and difficult. We handle all procedures including deposit collections and returns, make ready, and property inspections using both our extremely competent staff and first-class vendors.
Property Inspections and Oversight
Because many of our owners are not local, we keep a constant eye on every property to make certain the grounds, unit/building, and interiors are well taken care of. We conduct a semi-annual visit on top of maintenance-based visits, to address any issues and make sure the tenants are in compliance with the terms of the lease.
Preventative Maintenance
Preventative maintenance is the key to a successful rental property. Being on the offensive towards potential issues will prevent large expenditures and will help maintain the value of your property. We hire and contract only the finest maintenance personnel to make sure that any potential problems are handled in a timely fashion and at reasonable rates. Experience and quality matter.
Repairs
In the event that there is an issue with your property, our team will handle every detail. Our staff is available 24 hours per day 7 days a week in the event of an emergency. We will provide multiple bids on “big ticket” repair items and will handle negotiations and payments with all contractors. We do not up charge the cost of maintenance which means you pay what we pay for all maintenance and repairs.
Rent Collections
Our services include rent collections for all properties. We offer our tenants a number of different rent payment options including our online payment portal which allows payments via credit card, check or even an advanced auto debit option which will deduct the rent on a monthly basis. In the event that tenants do not abide by lease mandated monthly payments, we will handle eviction and collections processes as well.
Accounting and Reporting
Each month, our owners receive a detailed report of all financial activity involving their property along with receipts (if requested) for all repairs and maintenance. We also provide year end net income statement along with a 1099-Misc showing the total rent collected making IRS filing a breeze. Additionally, we offer direct deposit for a small service fee making funds available in your account, next day.
We pride ourselves on customizing management to our client’s situation because every situation is different. If you have any further inquiries or feel one of your needs has been overlooked, please contact our office today. Let us make your leasing experience simple and easy.
What Our Clients Are Saying
I just wanted to say thanks for handling my property. It has been a huge relief to me and I really appreciate how it seems so problem free. I know that can't be the reality, because I manage my own property in San Francisco. In the future I will absolutely give a recommendation to anybody who wants one. Also, if you do sales, I will consider you first when it is time to sell.
I selected The Carvajal Group based upon a personal reference. I have found their fresh ideas, easy accessibility and constant communication a refreshing change. When you are selling or managing investment properties that are out of town, you want a partner that you can trust. I feel confident that my best interests are being looked after by the right team.
