- Spring & fall preventative maintenance: these will be emailed in the Spring and Fall on a variety of preventative services. All are optional
- Major Projects, Rehabs & Renovation Management. CJ Real Estate is willing to manage renovations and large make ready projects through our general contracting partners. We keep an “approved contractor list” available at all times to ensure we can handle any project that comes our way from vendors we have negotiated reduced pricing. Since this is outside our normal property management services, a negotiated project management fee is charged for these major jobs.
- Make Ready Turns and General Maintenance. When you manage as many properties as we do, you need to have a team of handymen that can travel the city every day and help our current residents with their maintenance needs. We’ve tried to do this many different ways and we’ve found that it is best to employ the handymen so we can control their schedules every day. The other reason why we have chosen to employ these guys is that it is very hard to schedule with vendors on such small jobs and maintain a high level of quality. Owners are not required to use our maintenance services.
