The most recent data from the Atlanta Tribune shows that during the first seven months of 2023 alone, landlords in the metro Atlanta area filed 72,000 evictions. Increasing rents and unemployment rates have fueled the area's rising eviction cases.
As an Atlanta landlord yourself, those stats should be enough to prompt you to consider partnering with property managers offering eviction protection plans.
Luckily, you don't have to look far and wide. Our company, PMI Atlanta West, is here to help with our full-service landlord rescue and property management services in Atlanta, GA.
Read on to learn more about our eviction protection plans, how they work, and their benefits.
What Is PMI Atlanta West's Eviction Protection Plan?
PMI Atlanta West's eviction protection plan is a service you can subscribe to when you hire us as your full-service Atlanta property management company. Subscribing to this safeguards you from:
- The headaches associated with all the legal steps necessary for filing an eviction case
- The costs of evictions (e.g., filing and court fees)
- Other legal costs you may incur as part of the eviction process (e.g., retaining a lawyer)
How Does It Work and What Are Its Benefits?
If we must evict a covered tenant, we'll handle the process on your behalf, from issuing the required notices to recovering the property. We'll even cover up to $2,000 of your eviction-related costs!
So, with PMI Atlanta West's eviction protection plan, you don't have to worry about dealing with the lengthy, time-consuming process of evictions in Atlanta, GA. You can also minimize your expenses and losses. As Smart Asset points out, while many evictions only take weeks, some cases can last for months and cost hundreds to thousands of dollars.
Who Is a "Covered" Tenant?
When you hire us as your full-service Atlanta real estate manager, one of the services you can expect from us is comprehensive tenant screening. Our screening process entails:
- Credit checks
- Income and employment verification
- Rental and eviction history review
- Criminal background checks
Performing all the above steps allows us to select tenants most likely to adhere to the lease agreement's terms and conditions.
However, we also know that not all evictions in Atlanta are preventable. For this reason, our eviction protection plans immediately cover the tenants our firm has screened and placed on your behalf.
What if you have existing tenants before you hire our team? In this case, our eviction protection plan will cover them within seven months from the date you sign your management agreement with us.
Let PMI Atlanta West Help Protect Your Investment
While being a landlord in Atlanta, GA, could be lucrative, it can also be a source of stress and financial losses. For instance, if you rent to the wrong tenants and they do something that would force you to evict them.
So, before that happens, partner with PMI Atlanta West and subscribe to our eviction protection plan. With our residential guarantees and comprehensive property solutions, we can help minimize your risks of dealing with and evicting bad tenants.
