Vetted local trades, invoices at cost with no markup, and preventive work scheduled before the season that breaks things. Maintenance is where management is actually judged.
All of it sits inside the management fee. The only thing you pay on top is what the vendor charged.
Vetted local trades who bill their real rate. The invoice passes straight through to you — no markup on routine work and no marked-up parts. Larger renovations and capital projects are quoted separately, with the supervision scope agreed before anything starts.
HVAC before summer, roofs and drainage before the monsoon, water heaters and filters on their own cycle. The repairs that never happen are the cheapest ones.
Water, gas or anything touching safety reaches a person directly at any hour. Everything else is triaged the same business day.
Scheduled interior and exterior inspections with photographs, so condition is a record rather than an argument — at move-in, mid-lease and move-out.
Paint, clean, repair and re-key between residents, run as one scheduled job rather than a series of calls. Vacancy is the most expensive line on a statement.
Larger work scoped, bid and supervised on your behalf, with progress documented. We will tell you honestly which improvements return the rent and which do not.
Cottonwood is the commercial center of the Verde Valley, which means the trades are here — plumbers, HVAC, electricians, roofers and landscapers who can be on site the same day rather than driving in from Prescott or the Valley.
That bench is why we can hold a same-day response standard across the whole Verde Valley from here, and why our Cottonwood owners rarely wait. Vendors bill their real rate and the invoice passes straight through.
