What 150+ Central Arkansas rental doors look like in actual operational numbers. These are the benchmarks our property management operation runs against, and consistently hits.
Our Operating Standards
- 95%+ occupancy across the portfolio
- 30 days or less vacant between tenants
- 10 days or less turn from move-out to rent-ready
- 150+ units managed across Central Arkansas
- Integrated in-house construction for repairs, rehab, and BTR via Apex Professional Construction
What Those Numbers Actually Mean
The Central Arkansas property management industry average runs roughly 90%–92% occupancy with 45–60 days vacant and 21–30 day turns. Our standards represent meaningful operational delta against that benchmark.
On a $1,500/month rental:
- 30 days vacant vs. 60 days vacant = $750 difference per turn cycle
- 10-day turn vs. 21-day turn = $550 of recovered rent per turn
- 95% occupancy vs. 90% = $900/year per door
Across a 20-door portfolio, the operational delta is roughly $18,000–$30,000 per year in NOI vs. average management.
How We Hit These Numbers
Pre-marketing the turn
We list the property before the outgoing tenant has fully moved out, so showings start the day after the unit hits rent-ready. Most managers wait until the turn is complete. That’s a 7–14 day gap we don’t take.
Integrated construction
When the turn requires anything beyond paint and turn cleaning, our in-house crew runs it. No vendor scheduling delays. No marked-up vendor invoices. Read why we run property management and construction under one roof.
Tight screening
Our tenant screening standard is 3x income, no recent evictions, verified employment, credit floor, criminal review. The right tenant up front is the cheapest occupancy strategy available.
Day-1 collections
Rent is due on the 1st, late on the 5th. Day 1 late: automated reminder. Day 5: phone call. Day 7: posted notice. Day 10: legal process. We don’t drift to 30+ days behind because the first conversation happens before the tenant has settled into non-payment.
