GETTING READY TO RENT

By Applicant submitting a signed Application they acknowledge and agree to the following:

It’s important that your property be well maintained not only to increase the value and maintain your investment but to set the bar for care by future tenants.

We will choose the first approved applicant, based upon our tenant screening policies. The unit is taken off the market when the approved applicant has signed the pre-lease holding agreement and the lease agreement, as well as paid the holding deposit. If the applicant decides not to rent the unit, they waive the holding deposit which is then paid out to the owner as income. If the applicant moves in as agreed upon, the holding deposit is transferred and becomes part of the applicant's refundable security deposit. WPM will assure completion of a signed move in condition form, documenting the condition of the home at time of move in. This form is required in the State of Washington if you deduct any repairs, yardwork or cleaning from the tenant's refundable security deposit upon move out. WPM retains a copy of the signed move in condition form.

Windermere Property Management has a comprehensive approach to marketing your property, to provide the best exposure to the most qualified potential tenants. This process starts by helping you prepare your property so it makes a good first impression, attracting good tenants, reducing time on the market, and obtaining the best rental price.

You have access to our in-house maintenance company that employs handymen, landscapers, residential cleaners as well as on-call staff for after-hours emergencies or we can coordinating with outside vendors to ensure that the property is well-maintained.
