Property Management in Magna, 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.

Historically, Kennecott operations have impacted soil and groundwater in parts of Magna, and EPA cleanup efforts have been ongoing for decades. Most residential areas have been remediated, but investors should check property-specific environmental reports, particularly for homes near the tailings pond or historic smelter sites. The air quality concerns are generally wind-blown dust from the mine rather than active emissions. Properties east of Main Street and away from the mine's direct influence are least affected. This is a manageable risk that keeps prices affordable and can be addressed with proper due diligence.

Demand is anchored by Kennecott, nearby distribution centers, and the Salt Lake airport zone. Lower price points support longer stays once a household is settled. Pet-friendly policies expand the applicant pool. Responsive maintenance and market-rate renewals matter more here than in higher-rent submarkets.

Gentrification may be too strong a word, but Magna is experiencing gradual change as SLC housing costs push buyers and renters westward. New restaurants, a brewery, and the Smith's grocery development signal growing commercial interest. Home prices have appreciated faster than the county average in percentage terms, though from a lower base. For existing investors, this trend supports value appreciation. For new investors, the window for the deepest discounts may be narrowing, but Magna still offers significantly lower entry points than any Salt Lake City neighborhood.
