Details:

When DLP Property Management took over the property, there were 2 vacancies and 2 tenants in process of leaving. Within the first 60 days of management, a total of 4 tenants were vacated and 5 units were leased. In total, within the first 8 months of management, 16 out of 21 tenants were vacated/evicted and 4 leases were extended, all with rent increases. Many tenants were consistently late and/or delinquent on rent. Upon move-out of undesirable tenants, a mix of new carpets and fresh paint was added to increase rent and overall attractiveness of units. All rents were increased upon lease expiration by a minimum of 3%. Currently, the building is 100% occupied, and has maintained an average of 97% occupancy. In addition, oil heating systems have been converted to gas, decreasing the heating bill (landlord pays heat ) by 60%. In addition, improved laundry facilitates are being added, with an expected increased revenue of $300 per month.
