1. A Proud History of Financial & Emotional Success
At MoveZen, we’ve seen remarkable growth over the past several years—but what we’re most proud of is our ability to help owners and residents thrive. By aligning our incentives with our clients’, we’ve consistently sent 80% of collected rent to owners (since 2020), maintained a 4% vacancy rate, and kept eviction experiences below 1%. We’re not chasing quick wins; our philosophy centers on profit through resident satisfaction—a rare win-win model that led Inc. Magazine to recognize our outstanding performance during 2021–2023.

Responsive support from a nimble, family-owned team with nearly 20 years of experience.
