Property Management Overview

There are many Property Management companies to choose from.

Why Echo Summit?

Echo Summit is not a by-product of a real estate firm looking to make a few bucks on the side managing properties. Echo was built from the ground up with the mission of increasing the quality and efficiency of managing single family and multi-family properties... an otherwise fragmented industry.  We understand that once you start treating a property like a rental... whether single-family or multi-family, it will eventually dilapidate into one. We also understand that there is no substitute for PRESENCE... our industry-leading ‘16-touch’ inspection system ensures your property is maintained as a home.

We also have no maintenance markups, one of the best kept profitability secrets in the property management business. We hire only the best, and pass on our considerable purchasing power right on to you. 

Investment property must be maintained like your own home

We learned long ago that by not inspecting rental properties frequently, by not changing furnace filters frequently, by not cleaning gutters or inspecting the property annually… that expensive deferred maintenance items can stack up and eliminate any profit an owner hoped to make on a property.

We also understand the importance of screening and selecting the right tenants, and holding tenants financially responsibly for impeccably maintaining the property. This requires ongoing communications between the property management company and the tenants throughout the year. We work closely with clients to create feasible budgets. Throughout this process, we look for ways to reduce expenditures and increase income.

Technology is a very important part of Property Management

Maintaining a profitable rental property also requires effective use of technology and systems. At Echo Summit, we utilize state-of-the-art property management financial tools, video inspection technology (click for demo) and other systems to help ensure that every property owner is maximizing the return on their investment.

From our high-end Toshiba scan/fax/reproduction platform, to our dedicated digital T1 line with NEC Key digital telephone system, to our daily Blowfish-encrypted offsite backups, we take technology infrastructure very seriously. We have also innovated the EchoNet property management multimedia communications system, where we are able to manage regional multi-family properties as if they were 'across the street.'
