Bev Roberts Rentals & Property Management

Rental properties can build wealth in different ways, and two common approaches are cash flow and appreciation. Cash flow means the property brings in more each month than it costs to operate, while appreciation means the property may increase in value over time. Each approach has different risks and benefits, and the right fit depends on factors such as your financial goals, available reserves, investment timeline, and ability to handle unexpected expenses or periods of lower income. Some owners may use a combination of both strategies. Before purchasing or changing an investment strategy, it’s important to review the numbers carefully and consider advice from qualified financial and tax professionals. Bev Roberts Rentals can help property owners with their rental investments. Call us at (919) 306-5665 to learn more about our property management services.

👻🎃 In a real estate Facebook group, agents were asked about the craziest tenant requests they've had, and the winner replied that they were asked to include a ghost named Mr. Happy in the rental contract! Turns out he was once the president of the local bank, and the tenants wouldn’t move in unless he stayed!

When tenants move out, we always hope they leave the place in BOO-tiful shape... but sometimes, they take more than just their boxes! 👻 If you find your friendly ghost has tagged along, don’t be spooked; just remind him he has to stay because it’s in the contract! 🎃 We wish all tenants keep the GHOUL times rolling wherever you go! 🧙‍♀️

Property managers make decisions every day, but some situations require more than following routine procedures. Fair housing questions involving reasonable accommodations, assistance animals, tenant screening, or potential discrimination complaints can become complicated quickly. The key is knowing when to pause, document the situation, and ask for guidance instead of making assumptions. When it comes to fair housing, knowing when to ask for help is just as important as knowing the rules.

At Bev Roberts Rentals, we understand the importance of consistent procedures, clear communication, and staying informed about fair housing responsibilities. Looking for professional property management? Call us at (919) 306-5665 to learn more about our services!

Renters are often looking at several homes at the same time, so how quickly a landlord responds can make a big difference. A recent survey found that 68% of renters have lost interest in a rental because scheduling a tour was too difficult, while 47% have considered choosing a less-preferred home simply because it was easier to tour. The study also found that renters value convenient tour options while still wanting someone available to answer questions about rent, fees, and lease terms. For landlords, this is a good reminder that making the leasing process simple, responsive, and convenient can help keep prospective renters engaged. Bev Roberts Rentals works to make the rental process easier for both landlords and prospective tenants. Call us at (919) 306-5665 to learn more about our leasing services.

Mixing rental income with personal money might seem convenient, but it can create unnecessary headaches. Keeping rental funds separate makes it easier to track income and expenses, maintain accurate records, prepare for tax time, protect security deposits, and understand whether a property is actually profitable. A dedicated account for rental activity, along with good recordkeeping, can help keep your rental business organized and make unexpected expenses easier to manage. Bev Roberts Rentals can help take the day-to-day management and maintaining accurate records of your rental property off your plate.

Rent prices are ticking up, but renters may still find move-in specials and other incentives. According to Zillow’s June Rental Report, the typical U.S. asking rent reached $1,965, up 2.2% from last year. However, nearly 2 in 5 rental listings offered a concession, such as a free month’s rent, waived fees, or free parking. In areas like Charlotte and Raleigh, renters have more options due to new apartment construction. As available homes are rented and fewer new units become available, these deals may become less common. For property owners, this means understanding your local rental market is important when setting a competitive rental price.

At Bev Roberts Rentals, we help property owners navigate the rental market and manage their investment properties. Call us at (919) 306-5665 to learn more about our property management services!

The rental market is becoming more competitive, with many property owners offering reduced rent or smaller security deposits to attract and retain tenants. While these concessions can help reduce vacancies, they can also leave properties with less financial protection when tenants move out owing money. Industry data shows that unpaid rental balances and move-out charges have increased, making it important for owners to carefully balance affordability with protecting their investment. Bev Roberts Rentals helps property owners manage their rentals, tenant relationships, and financial responsibilities while navigating changing market conditions.
