Shearer Realty provides services in property management in North Carolina. We strive to make your investment as profitable and as stress-free as possible.
Our investment in property management software helps us run a more efficient business. We prioritize providing you with the most outstanding service to our owners and residents. For more information read our property management FAQs. Shearer Realty is excited to pass on these advantages to you:
Our solution is web-based, so we can access all of our data from any location at any time. This allows us to provide outstanding service for our customers. Sensitive information is housed in data centers. These data centers have the same security levels that is used and trusted by major banking institutions.
Easy-to-read owner statements are sent via email, or can be accessed online using our convenient online Owners Portal, which saves you time and paper.
We can communicate with vendors and create electronic work orders to get things fixed quickly.
We use online ACH (electronic payments) to securely deposit your payment into your bank account so you receive money even faster.
Residents also love the convenience of paying rent securely online. In addition, our team spends less time handling paper checks. Online rent payments are automatically entered into AppFolio and completely integrated with the accounting records.
With just a few clicks we can post professional vacancy ads to over 100 sites on the Internet, our website, and Zillow. The ads are designed by a professional designer, and stand out from the crowd.
All vacancy postings include an option for the potential resident to apply online. We avoid all of the time-consuming paperwork associated with traditional applications and can fill vacancies even faster.
Signage
We will place a professional sign at the property if allowed along with a directional if allowed.
Self-Showing Service
We utilize a self-showing service to minimize scheduling delays resulting in applicants viewing the home, applying for the home and renting the home faster.
Applicant Screening
We do background checks on Rental History, Criminal History and Credit.
We will not rent to convicted felons.
We won’t deny an applicant based on marginal credit, but may ask for a larger security deposit if they are considered a risk (most applicants have some bad credit).
We will verify employment & wages and contact their current Landlord for a report.
Lease Execution
We use the lease approved by the North Carolina Association of Realtors.
Tenant control
We will collect the rent and send late letters with demand for payment on the 6th of each month to tenants that have failed to pay their rent. If the rent is not paid within 10 days from the date of the demand for rent, we will file the Summary Ejectment and appear in court. If necessary, we will file a Writ of Possession with the County Sheriff.We will respond to any requests the tenant has and use our best efforts to place and keep good tenants.
Maintenance
Tenants will call our office and we will respond quickly. We will coordinate necessary repairs, utilizing qualified vendors. If the repair estimate exceeds $250, the owner will be contacted for approval. If the tenant is responsible, they will be charged. When a property becomes vacant, we will inspect the property and determine the repairs necessary to get the property in “rent ready” condition. We will consult with the owner for disbursement of the previous tenant’s security deposit.
