Looking For A Property Manager for Your Barrington Illinois Home During the Winter Months?

June 30th 2009 and I wonder if our summer is already over! At 65 degrees, almost 30 less than last week, we have all shut the air conditioners off, opened the windows, just a crack, & put jeans back on, but no worries it'll be back!

As a long term Barrington resident I know that when our summer truly is over, many local residents will flee to the warmer temps of sunny Florida for the winter. Whilst this may seem a long time away, I thought I would write this post to remind Barrington residents that if they are looking for a property manager to take care of their property whilst they are away, this is a service my husband and I offer just for single family homes in Barrington and Inverness.

We limit the property type to single family homes and to our local area.

Property management for homes vacant for 4 to 6 months is a little different than managing condo complexes. This service is not about finding tenants for your home and managing the rental income, which is what most property managers are hired to do. This is about taking care of your home while it is vacant and being on hand for any issues that crop up. So what services are provided?

• Regular visits to the home.
• Full property inspections during visits.
• Identifying problems and resolving.
• Preparing home for your return.
• Snow removal.
• Whole house property cleaning.
• Carpet cleaning.

This is by no means an exhaustive list, we are happy to discuss your individual needs. Prices are based on the size of the property and the services you require. Please note that we do not outsource these services, they are all carried out by my husband and myself, and our cleaner. As licensed Realtors we are legally allowed to manage properties in Illinois. As home-owners and avid D-I-Y ers we able to identify problems and in many cases resolve them. In the event that the services of other licensed tradesmen are required, your home will not be left unattended, we will remain present until the issue has been resolved.

Are you leaving the area for a new job and don't want your home left to fend for itself? Perhaps you have a 1 or 2 year assignment and have decided not to sell or rent. As local Realtors we can market your home for sale, manage it during your absence or both, just give us a call.
