A new Delgado Property Management client
At Delgado Property Management, I’ve recently blogged about our new yard signs that we just rolled out to the public in the post titled "A New Delgado Property Management Yard Sign" and I also shared a story about a client wanting to contact the owners of a vacant “for rent” sign across the street to have them hire us in "I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it." As it worked out, our yard sign “won” and attracted the owner across the street to call us and ask about our services.
Turns out, the owner across the street studied us first. He poked around on the Internet and liked what he saw about us. Also, he called us pretending to be an interested renter and liked how we conducted ourselves. So, he called us to talk business and inquire about hiring us as his property managers. His rental home a had been on the market for three months with no leads and no renters and he was ready for a change. He also agreed to some cleanup we insisted upon but we were also pleasantly surprised by the excellent condition of the interior.
He asked many good questions which we were happy to answer. Then he asked a couple of questions about reducing our fee to which we politely, but firmly, had to respond, “no” we don’t reduce our fee. We also had to tell him that we don’t proceed, not even with photography, without a signed contract.
Well, he delivered the signed contract to our office just yesterday. He wants usto move forward. We now find ourselves in the unique situation of having three of our yard signs out on the same street, two across from each other, all at the same time.
