Our Divine Beginnings

We began our business after we received divine instructions: "start the business, and whatever you touch will turn to gold"!  At the time, we were living in a basement apartment surviving mainly on potatoes for a whole year.  With no money saved, and not knowing where to start, "it came to me" that what i can do is what i have already been doing all my life, "naturally"   Well, i knew how to clean, so i made calls offering to clean homes.  Our first customer was a relative.  I grabbed a can of Comet Cleanser, a few rags, and mounted the $5.00 bike my husband purchased me from a resale store.  

It took a whole day cleaning her 3 level home.  When my husband saw my efforts, he then picked up a paint brush and announced, "well, i can paint"!

We called the landlord and informed him that he needed his building painted and cleaned, then offered our services.  The next week he called and took us up on it.  Unknown to us, he had 38 units, which we began to clean and paint.  Later, when we were "divinely instructed" to move to a different location, we continued our business with him. 

It was after we moved that our former landlord asked us to manage his properties.  We became his part-time employees, seeing to the needs of tenants.... cleaning, painting, and most of all listening, hearing, observing.  Later on, we were divinely instructed to get licensed, and we did.  We believe one of the reasons we have been called into this business is to service a sector of people who may have resigned to become life-time renters due to low credit scores, hindering past histories, and lack of knowledge needed to assist in advancement.  There is an immense degree of joy witnessing the gratitude shown on faces of clients who did not believe they could become homeowners!  As we continue to be directed by "divine instructions"  we anticipate greater contributions to service lives of many.

Feedback From Clients

"I needed to have run into this company earlier on, I called looking to rent an apartment, never knowing I would qualify for a home. Mrs. Rice took the time to walk me through every step and now I am a proud homeowner!  I have and will continue to refer everyone I know to Rice Property Management.  She is very professional."  

"I have been working with Diane at Rice Property Management for 4 years and it has been by pleasure.  They were not the first management company I hired to manage my property, but they are the best!  They have systematically handled my problems that arose with professionalism and with a "personal touch". They are ethical, accountable, and highly efficient.  Diane treats my property issues as if they were hers.  I would definately recommend Rice Property Management to handle anyone's property needs.

Thank you,  Aaron - Las Vegas, NV
