What Property Management Covers and How It Works
When you hire Hahn Kiefer Real Estate Services in Indiana, you start by providing property details, rental rates, and any lease terms or tenant preferences you want enforced. The team handles marketing for vacant units, schedules showings, and screens applicants using credit checks, employment verification, and rental history review.
Once a tenant is placed, you receive monthly statements showing rent collected, expenses paid for repairs or maintenance, and your net proceeds. Tenants submit maintenance requests through a centralized system, and Hahn Kiefer coordinates vendors for plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and other repairs, ensuring work is completed promptly and within budget.
Lease renewals, rent increases, and eviction proceedings are handled according to Indiana landlord-tenant law. You retain final decision-making authority, but the management team handles documentation, notices, and communication with tenants to keep your property compliant and occupied.
What property owners typically want to know
Landlords often ask how tenant screening works, what happens when repairs are needed, and how quickly vacant units are filled after a tenant moves out.
How do you screen tenants before approving a lease?
You require applicants to pass credit checks, provide proof of income, and supply references from previous landlords. Background checks are also conducted to identify any eviction history or criminal records.
What happens if a tenant stops paying rent?
You receive immediate notice, and the management team follows Indiana eviction procedures, including issuing formal notices and filing court documents if necessary. You stay informed at each step.
How quickly can you fill a vacant unit?
You can expect a vacancy to be marketed within 24 hours of notice, with showings scheduled as soon as the unit is cleaned and repaired. Average time to lease depends on local demand and rental pricing.
Who pays for maintenance and repairs?
You pay for repairs that are the landlord's responsibility under the lease, and costs are deducted from rental income before you receive your monthly proceeds. Emergency repairs are authorized up to a pre-agreed threshold.
What reports do I receive as the property owner?
You receive monthly financial statements showing rent collected, maintenance expenses, and net income. Annual reports for tax preparation and detailed ledgers for each property are also provided upon request.
