Realistic rents from closed leases, the expenses most projections miss, and a straight answer on whether a property will perform.
Northern Arizona is not one market. Flagstaff, at seven thousand feet under the San Francisco Peaks, is a university town with a rental floor the Valley does not have and a leasing calendar set by Northern Arizona University. Sedona and the Village of Oak Creek are red rock country, where short-term and seasonal demand runs all year and the town regulates it closely. Between them, the Verde Valley — Cottonwood, Clarkdale, Cornville and Camp Verde — is where our family has roots and where visitors who want Sedona without Sedona pricing end up. Munds Park, in the pines off the I-17, is a cabin market with a summer season.
Managing here means running the right business for each place: the academic calendar in Flagstaff, licensing and turnovers in Sedona, well and septic and irrigation shares in the Verde Valley, freeze protection and propane in the pines. A large share of the housing in all four is owned by people who live somewhere else, which is exactly what management is for.
Local facts, not a valuation. Values, rents and days on market live on the market page and refresh automatically; we will model your specific property.
Based on comparable leases that closed, not asking prices. Asking rents in every market are aspirational and they are what most projections are built on.
Turnover, vacancy, maintenance reserve, and the capital items specific to this market. A model without these is not a model.
If the property will not perform, we will say so before you offer rather than after you own it.
