Rental Restoration LLC- Intro Part I

I haven't updated the blog in so long because I've been working on another project--- Rental Restoration LLC!

Rental Restoration LLC is a general contracting firm that focuses solely on rental properties in the Seattle area. To fully introduce you to the company, I've prepared a little Q&A- which I'll publish in shorter chunks for your blog-reading pleasure:

Wait, I thought you were a property manager!

Yes, I worked with Seattle Management Group Real Estate for a little under a year. The brokerage is owned by some old friends who needed help with marketing and business development. Prior to working with them, I was involved with residential and capital construction, an active landlord, and real estate investor. While working with them, I realized how much time PMs spend managing vendors instead of managing properties! I started Rental Restoration while still working at SMGRE and continued to learn more about what property managers need in a reliable contractor. In the spring, I left SMGRE to focus full-time on Rental Restoration. I no longer manage properties (except my own!) or hang my real estate license with any brokerage.

What exactly does Rental Restoration do?

Rental Restoration is the only general contracting firm in the area that focuses strictly on rentals. We understand the need for speed, affordability, excellent communication and quality. I created this company with a crystal clear vision of providing services that would make the lives of property managers easier! Rental Restoration offers affordable maintenance, repair and renovation of rental properties. We do everything from simple handyman service calls to major updates to rental properties.

Do you do the work in-house or do you subcontract?

Right now, we have 8 employees with varying specialties. We're able to handle most services in-house. However, we also have negotiated special rates with journey-level plumbers and electricians to offer our clients an affordable solution when the nature of the service exceeds our on-staff crew. My business partner and I have been in the construction and real estate field in Seattle for many years and we have an extensive network of specialty subcontractors such as roofers and appliance repair.

Do you have a website?

Of course! You can find Rental Restoration at www.rental-restoration.com. We're adding some new functionalities to the site such as client log-in, so you can place work orders, check the status of work and look at the billing.

MORE Q&A TO COME!

Are you excited about having your very own reliable contractor or what?!!?!?!?

All best,
