Important Steps to Rent Your Home Out from A to Z
Step by step checklist for getting a home rented, and link to the full property management guide
1 Consider strengths and weaknesses for your home and location and consider special strategies to utilize them. Is it a college area? If so, you’ll likely handle a lot differently from low income, or a suburb
2 Get the property in show-ready condition by handling repairs, but also low-cost aesthetic fixes like spray painting rusted AC grates, and other things that really stand out. A sure way to attract sub-par tenants and repel the rest is to show a home with unrepaired issues
3 Decide whether you’re going to allow pets or not. Before you decide, know that for most landlords it’s the single best thing you can do to increase your “bottom line” profit over the long term. More on this subject here
4 Set a rental rate that will balance a minor amount of time on market hassle, with monthly rate. Whether in the form of owner-occupied showings, stress, or vacancy. Most owners fail to properly account for these subtle but real costs, especially vacancy. Vacant homes are much more costly than most account for. We can provide a free rental rate estimate compiled by people, not an algorithm, here

Happy Customer Feedback
Mikayla Lander: I have experience in the real estate/leasing world of Wilmington, and I have to say I am very impressed with the ladies at MoveZen Property Management. They were incredibly helpful when I moved in last June, and anytime we needed maintenance or assistance with a roommate transfer they have been on top of it and a text away at all times. They truly care about helping people enjoy where they live. I have had experiences with many of the girls and all are wonderful but Celeste is an ABSOLUTE rockstar. Thank you so much for all you do!!!
Walt Hutsell: Maddie is the best account manager I have ever worked with during a rental process. MoveZen is much more accommodating and helpful than other property managers I have interacted with.
Tiffany Francis: My experience with Zen Property Management has been great so far. I’m currently renting a property through them, and Rachel has been phenomenal. She’s been an incredible advocate for me whenever issues arise, and their responses are always prompt. Hoping to continue to have great experiences through my lease!
Dianna McKenzie: I contacted MoveZen Property Management November 2019. My husband and I were fed up with our current big name property management company who did absolutely nothing for us. Our rental property was our home for 12 years. We were very emotionally invested in wonderful memories of our family living in this home. After 5 tenants and losing thousands of dollars due to no-payment and unforeseen move outs we were ready for a change. I decided to look for a new property management company. When I read about MoveZen Property Management online I was hooked! I had a feeling of comfort in my heart I knew this is what we needed. Ashlee Malone is my personal property manager. We hit it off from the start I could tell she was a class act! When she told me she was going to take care of an issue you better believe it was done! She got us good tenants with a $500 monthly increase in our rent! She always contacted me if there were mechanical problems at the property and got us some really good vendors that did not cost us a fortune. We feel so blessed to know our property is in good hands. Ashlee acts as though the property is hers and that is what we wanted someone who really CARED!! If you are thinking of using MoveZen Property Management you have found the right place!
Ryann Harris Scott: Maddie was a huge help with her prompt communication and follow-up. She helped get us through the application process and into our rental super easily!
Don Spina: We’re out-of-state landlords of a single property previously managed by MoveZen. It’s become clear that leaving our property in their hands without verifying their performance throughout the experience was a big mistake. Property was stolen by one of the last 2 tenants during move-out (a ladder and 3-pc patio set), and I had to inform them of the loss rather than the other way around. Then, after further inspection of the property, it became clear that the job their preferred service company did to replace a shower door in the main bath was botched. The door assembly is not properly placed and is the wrong size. I don’t know why the service has deteriorated so much over the past year or so, but be very very careful and use extreme oversight if you choose MoveZen going forward.
UPDATE: MoveZen has worked to get the ladder back to us, and reported that the tenant had either forgotten, or was unaware that her son had borrowed the ladder. Second, they contacted the prior tenant and learned she had thrown the patio set away due to apparent dry rot. We appreciate the work by MoveZen after the fact, but are still bothered that we had to raise a fuss to be heard, otherwise they would have taken the easiest path out of the relationship at our cost.
Dustin Martin: I am currently setting up my old apartment in Wilmington to rent. I am working with Kathleen Marshall from MoveZen Property Management to get it ready. She has been amazing from beginning until now. She has guided me with the whole process and has gone above and beyond to make sure that the property is being properly cared for during the whole renovation process. She doesn’t hesitate to properly communicate with me throughout the time to make sure all tasks and questions are being completed and answered. I highly recommend Kathleen Marshall to take care of your property needs in Wilmington.
Caitlyn Marshall: Amazing customer service! Highly recommend.
Lori Miller: Best around!!! Thank you so much.
Jordan Reuck: Taryn and the team at VPM were AMAZING through our entire rental process. The communication was prompt and polite, information was clear and easy to navigate, and all of this was done from 300 miles away while we relocated from Connecticut. They were flexible, understood our situation, and adjusted things here and there to make our experience seamless. Securing housing is usually THE most stressful part of a move, but Taryn and her team made housing the last thing we had to worry about and we are so grateful. We hope to not go through another move for a while, but if we did, we would absolutely use VPM again- no question!
Morgan Osborne: Jamie has been a great property manager! I have enjoyed corresponding with her and she is always very responsive and personable!! Always helpful with scheduling any maintenance issue. Thank you!!
Max Bress: Maddie was incredibly understanding, responsive, and friendly with my wife and me. We were able to rent our dream home with a massive backyard for our puppies in Wilmington and couldn’t be happier with the service that we received. 10/10 recommend.
Kari Morris: My rental experience with MoveZen Property Management has been wonderful. I worked exclusively with Jamie and she is an absolute gem! She is extremely efficient, super responsive, and goes above and beyond in all that she does. Jaimie’s warm and bubbly personality has me leaving here feeling like I have a true friend and not just a property manager!
Anastasia Katris:
Abigail B: I have been renting one of the properties for about 3 years so far. Taryn has been great at answering questions over the years and making sure I have everything I need. Any issues with the property have always been addressed quickly. It’s a great company!
Natasha Poarch: I have had the pleasure of working with MoveZen for almost 10 years now on multiple projects. Their professionalism, communication, and knowledge of the industry can’t be beat. Fantastic group!
