A Smarter Alternative to Traditional Long-Term Renters
Less Hassle
Managing a rental property can be time-consuming and stressful. We take care of all tenant communications, including those late-night maintenance calls, so you don’t have to.
Many of our partners go months—sometimes even a year—without needing to discuss an issue. If it’s minor, we handle it. Major expenditures are always discussed ahead of time, but we take care of acquisition, installation, and everything else, so you never have to worry about the details.
Earn More
By partnering with us, you not only secure a reliable, long-term lease but also earn more than you would with a traditional renter. We often pay above-market rates, and unlike a standard lease, we provide completely free property management.
For a property renting at $3,500–$4,000 per month, most property management companies charge 8%–12% in fees—costing you $3,300 to $5,700 per year. On top of that, hiring a realtor to find a new tenant typically costs one month’s rent—another $3,500 to $4,000 per year. With us, that’s $6,800 to $9,700 back in your pocket annually, in addition to earning more per month than a standard rental.
Better Protection
We prioritize your property’s long-term care. Unlike traditional tenants, who may not report issues until they become major problems, our team has eyes on your property regularly, allowing us to catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs. We also provide professional cleanings, proactive maintenance, and comprehensive guest screening to ensure only responsible visitors stay in your home.
Studies show that short-term guests use major appliances, plumbing, and HVAC systems less frequently than full-time residents. Because they’re often dining out, sightseeing, or working during the day, they use kitchens less, run fewer laundry cycles, and put less strain on plumbing and HVAC systems. This reduced daily wear and tear, combined with our rigorous guest vetting, regular oversight, and preventative maintenance, means fewer surprises, lower repair costs, and a well-maintained property that holds its value over time.
How Do We Do It?
At Bower and Kip, we streamline the rental process to make it fast, hassle-free, and cost-effective for you. Here's how:
Property Assessment: We begin by touring your home to assess its suitability within our current portfolio. This allows us to understand your property's unique features and potential.
Transparent Communication: During the tour, we answer all your questions, ensuring you have a clear understanding of our process and the benefits of partnering with us.
Swift Leasing Process: Within a few days of the assessment, we draft a traditional rental agreement tailored to your property. Our process is designed to be efficient, often allowing you to have a lease in hand by week's end.
Why Choose Us?
Cost Savings: By partnering with Bower and Kip, you avoid the need to pay a realtor to list your property for long-term tenants, which can often cost up to one month's rent in fees.
Earn more: Partnering with us means earning more than a traditional rental while securing a reliable, long-term lease—with no property management fees.
Minimized Vacancy: Traditional methods can result in your property sitting vacant for a month or more during tenant turnover. Our efficient process reduces vacancy periods, ensuring you start earning rental income sooner.
We protect your investment: We protect your property with regular oversight, proactive maintenance, and thorough guest screening, ensuring responsible visitors and fewer costly surprises.
