You moved. Your rental didn't.

Local management for owners who live outside Maryland, DC and Virginia.

Moving for work or the military doesn't have to mean selling. Plenty of owners keep their DC-area home as a rental and run it from across the country. We're the team on the ground.

How it works.

Four steps, all handled locally.
  1. Send us the address.

    We'll come back with a rent number and a plan.

  2. We get the home ready.

    Licensing, inspections, and any make-ready repairs are coordinated before it lists.

  3. We place a tenant.

    Pricing, showings, screening, and the lease are all handled locally.

  4. You get paid.

    Rent lands the first week of each month, with a statement you can check anytime online.

Before you rent from a distance.

What to know first. Rules are linked to the official pages they come from.

Licensing comes first.

DC requires a rental business license, and owners who live outside DC must name a local agent. Montgomery County and Prince George's County each require their own rental license. Virginia has no statewide license, but some localities require registration.

Taxes follow the property.

Rental income is usually taxed where the home sits, so expect a nonresident return. Your accountant will get clean year-end records from us.

Insurance changes.

A homeowner's policy rarely covers a rental. Switch to a landlord policy with at least $300,000 in liability coverage.

One fee.

8% of monthly rent, with no admin line, no setup cost and no renewal fee.
