Why The Pros

Not a call center. Right here in Southeast Texas.

Most owners don't lose money on a bad month. They lose it on vacancy that drags, repairs that get expensive because nobody called back, and tenants who were never screened right. We built The Pros Properties right here in Hardin County to fix exactly that. When you call, you get somebody who knows where Village Creek is.

DIY vs. The Pros

You bought an investment, not another full‑time job.

Owning a rental should build your wealth, not take over your life. Self-managing can look cheaper at first, but the real cost shows up in your time: tenant questions, chasing rent, coordinating repairs, filling vacancies, and handling whatever comes up next.

What does self-managing really cost?
Self-managing

What We Do

Everything between "for rent" and "paid in full."

All Services
Marketing & LeasingProfessional listing photos, syndicated ads, showings, and pricing that fills the home instead of sitting on it.
Tenant ScreeningCredit, background, income, and rental history checks on every adult applicant. The right resident is the best protection you can buy.
Rent CollectionOnline payments, consistent enforcement, and direct deposit to your account. No awkward texts, no chasing.
Collections & Credit ReportingWhen a resident moves out owing rent or damages, that balance doesn't just get written off. We pursue what's owed and report unpaid balances for credit reporting, so residents stay accountable and you have a real shot at getting your money back.
Maintenance & RepairsResidents submit requests online, we coordinate trusted local vendors, and you approve anything above your set limit. Gulf humidity and SETX storms are hard on houses. We stay ahead of both.
Financial ReportingMonthly statements, year-end summaries, and a live owner portal. Tax time stops being a scavenger hunt.

Get My Free Rental Analysis

What services do you provide?

We handle the day-to-day of owning a rental: marketing and leasing, resident screening, rent collection, maintenance through our in-house maintenance team, inspections, lease renewals, and evictions when necessary. Our goal is to protect your investment and keep your income steady and hands-off.

How do you market my property?

We use professional listing photos, advertise your home online across rental sites, and handle showings for you. We price it right from the start so it rents instead of sitting empty.

How do you set the rental price?

Every home starts with a rental analysis. We look at comparable rentals nearby, your home's condition and upgrades, and what renters are looking for right now. Price too high and a home sits vacant; price too low and you leave money on the table. We aim for the rate that leases quickly at the best price.

How do you screen residents?

Every adult applicant goes through the same screening: income verification, credit review, rental history, and a criminal background and sex-offender check. Using the same criteria for everyone keeps the process fair and consistent with Fair Housing rules.

How is rent collected, and what about late payments?

Residents pay through the resident portal, with PayNearMe at participating local retailers, or at our secure drop box. Late rent is handled consistently under the lease, and if a resident stops paying, we handle the notices and the eviction process under Texas law.

When do I receive my rental income?

Rent proceeds go to your bank account by ACH direct deposit each month. Your statements, work orders, property reports, and 1099s are in your owner portal any time.

Who handles maintenance?

We have a dedicated, fully staffed maintenance department. Residents submit requests with photos and videos, and our maintenance team reaches out to troubleshoot and sees each job through.

Can I use my own vendors?

Absolutely. We're happy to work with vendors you already trust. We always contact you before sending anyone out, and if you have a vendor you'd like to use, we can help with scheduling and invoicing.

Do you mark up maintenance costs?

No. We don't mark up vendor or maintenance invoices.

What does property management cost?

There are no setup fees, no maintenance or vendor markups, and no hidden fees. Owners with 6 or more homes or a multi-unit complex receive a discounted rate. Request a free rental analysis or call us for your management rate.

Do owners get an online portal?

Yes. Owners can access statements, work orders, property reports, 1099s, and documents any time from a secure online portal.

What makes The Pros different?

We're local, we answer the phone, and we keep things simple: no setup fees, no markups, no hidden fees, money in your account every month, and a fully staffed maintenance team right here in Southeast Texas.
