FAQs

Why do I need a Property Manager?

Hiring a property manager provides you with piece of mind, maximizes revenue, and helps ensure you are always in compliance with state and local regulations.

How much does property management service cost?

Rates can vary based on the size of the property and the level of service desired. Request a proposal and we’ll setup a meeting to discuss your needs and prepare a personalized management plan.

How does SBC2 find new tenants?

We employ in-house licensed agents that can market your property, but if the situation warrants, we also work closely with select rental brokers in the area. All applicants are thoroughly screened and we manage the lease process from move-in through move-out.

What happens if I have an emergency at 2am?

We are on-call 24/7 for emergencies. You or your tenants can simply call (617) 670-8139 and we’ll dispatch one of our techs to address the situation.

How often will I be in contact with my Property Manager?

As often as you would like. Part of our customized boutique approach is to tailor our level of communication to your needs, including the frequency of meetings, reporting details and approval limits.

Can we use our own vendors or employees?

Yes. If you have a great vendor or on-site employees you would like to keep, we are happy to work with them. But keep in mind, we can perform many tasks in-house or with preferred vendors that could save you money.

We specialize in the South End, Back Bay and South Boston neighborhoods, but we manage properties throughout the greater Boston area.
