Property Management in Alpine, Utah

We manage single-family homes, townhomes, and small multifamily across the Wasatch Front, including Salt Lake City, Utah County, Davis County, and Weber County.

Starter is 10% of collected rent for 1–4 units; Growth is 8% for 5–15 units. Leasing is a one-time 50% of first month’s rent when we place a new tenant (none on renewals). You only pay management when rent is collected.

Most homes we list, when priced to local comps, typically lease within a few weeks depending on seasonality. We share weekly showing and application activity rather than a fill-by date.

We verify income, credit, criminal background, prior evictions, rental history, and employment. Applications are scored against fair, written criteria.

Tenants submit requests online 24/7. We triage, dispatch vetted vendors, and keep owners informed. Emergencies route to the 24/7 emergency line and are triaged as they come in.

We maintain a small operating reserve to cover minor repairs and do not add markups to vendor invoices. You receive copies of all bills in monthly statements.

We complete move-in/move-out inspections, annual or semi-annual checkups, and spot checks as needed, with detailed photo reports.

Owner disbursements are sent monthly after rent clears and expenses are reconciled. You’ll receive a statement itemizing all income and costs.

We follow Utah statutes for notices and timelines, apply late fees per lease, and coordinate with legal partners when necessary to protect your interests.

Yes. We obtain owner approval for non-emergency repairs above your chosen dollar threshold. Emergencies are handled to prevent further damage.

Pet policies are owner-led. If allowed, we use pet screening, deposits, and pet rent to mitigate risk while expanding the renter pool.

We review your goals, collect documents and keys, perform a walk-through, set pricing, activate marketing, and begin showings, typically within 48–72 hours.

Alpine leases are often interim housing during a custom build or a corporate relocation, at premium rents ($3,500–$6,000+/month) that match lot size and finishes. The applicant pool is smaller than mainstream markets, so vacancy between tenants can be longer.

Alpine's luxury market is more cyclical than mainstream markets, prices can drop more sharply in recessions but recover faster as high-income demand returns. The limited supply (few homes available at any time) provides a structural floor. During the 2008–2012 downturn, Alpine prices declined but recovered to pre-recession levels faster than many markets. The rental market is somewhat insulated because the rent band is high and inventory is thin. Conservative leverage is advisable for Alpine investments.

Alpine properties are larger and often have extensive landscaping, sprinkler systems, and outdoor features (fire pits, pools, hot tubs, sport courts) that require diligent maintenance. Snow removal on long driveways is a seasonal cost. Water bills for large lots with lawn and garden irrigation can be substantial. Investors should budget $5,000–$12,000 annually for landscape maintenance alone. Hiring reliable local contractors and scheduling seasonal maintenance proactively prevents small issues from becoming expensive problems on high-value properties.
