Our Rent Collection Process
How We Keep Your Income Steady & Stress-Free
We combine modern payment technology with reliable management practices to ensure consistent cash flow and full financial transparency for every property owner.
Rent Collection for San Diego Rentals
We manage the full rent collection process for your property, from setting clear expectations with tenants to enforcing due dates and late fees. Our systems are designed to encourage on-time payments and keep your cash flow predictable.
Online Payments & Tenant Portal
Tenants can pay rent online through a secure portal using ACH or other approved methods. Automatic reminders and easy payment options help reduce late payments and mail delays.
Late Fees & Lease Enforcement
When rent is late, we follow the lease terms and California law to apply late fees, send
notices and follow up promptly. Consistent enforcement helps set clear expectations and
protect your bottom line.
Security Deposits Handling
We collect, hold and disburse security deposits in accordance with California law, using detailed move-in and move-out documentation to support any deductions. Our process helps minimize disputes and keeps you compliant.
Clear Financial Reporting
Accurate, timely financials are essential for any successful investment. We provide organized reports that make it easy to see how your San Diego rental is performing month after month.
Monthly Statements
Each month, you’ll receive a detailed statement showing income, expenses, management fees and any maintenance items — all accessible through your secure owner portal.
Year-End Tax Reports
At the end of the year, we provide consolidated reports that make it easier to prepare your taxes or share information with your accountant.
Custom Reporting & Export
Need more detail? You can export data from your portal or request specific reporting for your records, lenders or financial planning.
