"I'm in it."
I started managing rentals in the Sioux Falls area in 2009. Seventeen years later, I still walk the properties, talk to tenants, meet with owners and deal with problems firsthand.
I don't believe you can manage property well from a spreadsheet or an office. You have to know the buildings, know what's happening in them and be willing to show up.
That's what "I'm in it" means to me.
Owner, Equity Property Management
That's the whole difference. Most management companies sell you the idea that they take the property off your hands. What that really means is you deal with their staff, their ticket system, and their portal. Here you get one of us, not a bot, not a call center. We're a homegrown team, and the person who answers knows your property.
We manage residential and commercial properties in Sioux Falls, Harrisburg, Brookings, Dell Rapids, and Madison. We place the tenants, collect the rent, handle the maintenance, and send you a statement every month in plain numbers. If something goes wrong, you hear it from us before you hear it from your tenant.
The trades we use, we've used for years. Our electrician has worked on these properties since 2018. That bench is the reason a repair gets handled this week instead of next month, and it isn't something a franchise can hand you on day one.
