Uplift’s leasing services take your rental from vacant to a signed lease, included in full management for a $595 tenant placement fee ($395 for multifamily), or on their own as leasing-only service for one month’s rent.
What do Uplift’s leasing services include?
Every step from vacancy to signed lease. If you already have a tenant in place, you don’t need leasing services; ask us about onboarding an occupied property instead.
- Pricing: a rent recommendation based on local comparables, amenities, and current demand.
- Listing photos: high-quality photos of the unit for every listing.
- Advertising: listings on 50+ rental sites.
- Showings: showing access 7 days a week, and Uplift answers every prospective tenant’s questions.
- Applications and screening: online applications and tenant and pet screening against written criteria.
- Lease: custom lease preparation, negotiation, signing, and collection of move-in funds.
How long does it take to lease my rental?
Because advertising can start before the current tenant moves out, many homes have a qualified applicant lined up before they are empty. Repairs and cleaning between tenants usually take 1–2 weeks, and once an applicant is approved we hold the home for up to 2 weeks while the lease is signed. Homes that need major repairs or upgrades take longer, and we’ll give you a schedule up front.
How is the rent for my property set?
Uplift recommends a rent based on comparable rentals near your property, its condition and amenities, and how quickly similar homes are leasing. The goal is the rent that earns the most over a full year, not the highest asking price, because each empty month costs a full month’s income. See what vacancy costs San Diego owners.
How are applicants screened?
Every applicant is screened against the same written criteria, including credit, income, and rental history. The full criteria are on our tenant placement page.
Should I choose full management or leasing-only?
Choose leasing-only if you plan to collect rent and handle repairs yourself; choose full management if you want Uplift to run the property after move-in. Compare them on our leasing-only page or see single-family and condo management and apartment and multifamily management.
