ACCOUNTING PRACTICES

USA Property Management Team’s accounting/bookkeeping staff are highly trained experienced professionals that are eager to talk with you at any time about your account. We use one of the most sophisticated accounting programs available today. It is the AppFolio program. This program, along with our excellent accounting staff, and the integrity of USA Property Management Team, assure you of accurate monthly statements.

The monthly statements are a comprehensive, detailed and easy to understand accounting of all income and expenses pertaining to your property. Each statement is accompanied with all the invoices, back up receipts and a year to date total. The monthly statements are mailed out along with your monthly check on the 15th of each month. We also offer the option of having your monthly check direct deposited into your bank account, your statements emailed to you and followed up with receiving a year-end statement including a 1099 for your tax records.

RENTAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

Tenant management is our top priority to ensure the successful management of your property. To do this, USA Property Management Team has established certain policies and procedures that give us the best results which include but are not limited to the following:

Posting tenant requirements on our Website.
Requiring all perspective tenants physically inspect the property prior to submitting an application.
Having all applicants fill out a detailed rental/lease application and pet application if applicable.
Obtaining a full background report from an independent Credit Reporting agency including:
- Current employment verification
- Current and past residence verification
- Rental/lease history
- Credit history and credit score
- Fraud search
- Derogatory remarks search
- Criminal history report
- Eviction history report

After all the above criteria has been received, USA Property Management Team contacts the owner of the property with all the information on the applicant so the owner can make an informed decision as to the approval or disapproval of the applicant. If approved, USA prepares a lease and collects all the funds.

Next USA sets up a time with the new tenant to conduct a detailed pre-move inspection to document the condition prior to releasing the property and setting up a new account.
