INVESTOR FROM CALIFORNIA:
 
I would recommend Rice Real Estate to anyone in need of professional residential property management services. Heidi and her team are very professional and having them manage my six investment properties has given me tremendous peace of mind.

 

Heidi strictly screens all applicants and has set criteria that she follows to ensure we only rent to high-quality tenants. If any problems arise during the tenancy, or with my property, Heidi has always taken care of the issues – informing me of each step along the way to resolution.

 

Her accounting is easy to understand and her owner draws are timely. Heidi is very attuned to the local real estate market and has provided me with information from time to time to keep me informed.
 
I am lucky to have found Heidi from Rice Real Estate and Property Management in Las Vegas as her and her team continue to exceed my expectations with their diligent and focused work.

INVESTOR FROM CALIFORNIA:
 
Heidi is WONDERFUL! I cannot say enough good things about how easy she made the process of buying an investment property in Las Vegas.

 

I am always hesitant about what I find on the internet but SHE WAY EXCEEDED my expectations! Being an out-of-town investor required that Heidi educate me on the local investment market, locate and schedule tours of about a dozen properties – all within one week.

 

I telephoned her on Tuesday. Saturday and Sunday we toured properties, made an offer on Sunday, and were in escrow on Tuesday.

 

She was so efficient that I decided to let her and her team perform the property management tasks. It’s best 10 years since I first started working with Rice Real Estate and everything is running smoothly. We’ve had the same Tenant the past 10 years and stayed current with market rent. 
 
It really does not get any better than this.

Tenants Reviews

TENANT OF RICE REAL ESTATE : I work in Property Management for a living, and I’m very mindful of customer services skills. I’m constantly looking for ways to give excellent quality service to the people I meet every day.

I can honestly tell you that Rice Real Estate and Property Management Company, and in specific Heidi Rice, is one of the most professional and ethical property management companies I’ve ever had the opportunity to closely work with.

The quality detailed service started with the processing of my application in a very timely manner within 24 hours. The home I moved into was spotless, she made every effort to have the home presented in “the best possible light”.

Heidi and her crew take extreme pride in the homes that she places on the market to lease, AND IT SHOWS! I was working between two states and had very little time to go into her office during my working hours, so I was able to sign and take care of all my lease paperwork on-line.

This was a tremendous value to me. After I moved in Heidi took immediate care to answer my questions in a timely manner. Lastly, the Resident Center team would follow up with any maintenance requests to ensure that they were completed in a satisfactory manner.

The professionalism, care and concern Heidi Rice and the Rice Real Estate team exhibits to their “Prospective Residents” is unparalleled in Quality Service, to any other property management company I’ve ever dealt with to lease a property!

It’s been an awesome experience working with her company, and I continually feel in each of my interactions with them, that I’m in “Good Hands”! Denny Reed, Tenant

Investment Housing Trends in Las Vegas 2021-2022

1) How Are Property Management Applicants Screened?

 

Our strongest work must take place with the screening process. Securing great tenants is in everyone’s best interest. Using our proprietary resident screening process (and proprietary scoring card) we analyze income, credit worthiness, debt to income ratio, rent payment history, cash reserves of monthly rent, employment history, background/eviction check and other factors that indicate the likelihood the tenant will perform according to his/her obligations under the lease.

Our resident screening data includes insight from our proprietary records along with an applicant’s eviction records, address history, criminal records, identity fraud and credit data. The key to a comprehensive evaluation of risk is a thorough evaluation of the resident, property and portfolio.

Unlike rules or judgment-based tools or methodologies, our statistically validated scoring model and analytical tools give our team a forward-looking view of many key risk factors. Our goal is to always place residents who will pay on time and honor their lease obligations.

2) How Do Property Managers Market and Advertise Houses for Rent?

 

Rice Real Estate is serious about finding highly qualified tenants and does everything possible to capture the greatest applicant pool. From professional advertising photos to Zillow 3D tours to self-guided YouTube video tours we do everything possible to ensure the home is accurately advertised to prospective tenants searching online. Our rental properties appear on numerous websites like Zillow and Hotpads, Facebook, Linkedin, YouTube and we advertise to 14,000+ local agents.

Unlike most of the property management companies in Las Vegas we understand the importance of being available when the prospective tenant has the time. For this reason, we answer and respond to phone calls, text messages and emails every day of the week, including Saturdays and Sundays.

Rice Real Estate’s average days on market for a “rent ready” vacant property averages 7-14 days.

 

3) What is a Rent Ready Property?

 

The property’s condition is one of the most important aspects of marketing a vacant rental property. Properties that are not “Rent Ready” when they’re placed on the rental market tend to be slower to rent and attract renters who are not only willing to settle for less than top quality, but who treat their rental properties with less care and concern than we want to achieve for our owners.

Furthermore, quality renters typically can’t envision what the property will look like after we do this or that…telling the prospect we’re going to be painting, or going to be replacing carpets is virtually useless.

The first impression of a vacant property is the lasting impression of that property.

That’s why we urge our owners to take care of the basics: fresh paint, clean floor coverings, functional window blinds, and everything in good working order.

 

4) Do you Allow Pets in Rental Properties?

 
 
An Owner makes the final decision if pets are allowed in a rental property. However, keep in mind that 65 – 70% of tenants will have a pet of some type.
 
If you do not allow pets, you are immediately negatively impacting your market. We can certainly still rent your home but it might take a little longer so you could experience extended vacancy and therefore lost rent.
 
If you do allow a pet, a pet addendum will be signed and additional security deposit is required. Do not confuse a pet with a service animal.
 
We cannot discriminate against service animals, so we will absolutely rent to a tenant with a verifiable service animal. We cannot take any additional security deposit, nor can we decline any specific breeds that we might otherwise not allow in our properties.
 
We verify our pet policy is adhered to via an affidavit kept on file with a 3rd party pet/animal/no pet screening company www.petscreening.com
 
 
 

5) Where is the Tenants Security Deposit Held?

 
Nevada law requires a Las Vegas property manager to hold tenant security deposits in a trust account separate from owner funds.
