Property Management in Cottonwood Heights, 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.

Cottonwood Heights doesn't see the dramatic seasonal pricing swings of resort towns like Park City, but proximity to four ski resorts does influence demand. Corporate transferees and traveling professionals often time moves to align with ski season, and furnished winter rentals can command premiums. The steadier dynamic is year-round demand from residents who chose Cottonwood Heights specifically for canyon access, these tenants are committed and willing to pay premium rents for the lifestyle. Turnover tends to cluster in late spring and summer when many leases end.

Cottonwood Heights to downtown SLC is approximately 20 minutes via I-215 and I-15, or 25 minutes via surface streets through Millcreek and South Salt Lake. The TRAX system doesn't reach Cottonwood Heights directly, but the Fort Union area is served by UTA bus routes connecting to TRAX. For tenants who work at nearby employers like Goldman Sachs (SLC campus), Intermountain Medical Center, or University of Utah, commutes are manageable. The canyon-side location is the trade-off, slightly longer commutes in exchange for unmatched outdoor access.

In Cottonwood Heights, tenants pay premium for ski storage/mudroom areas, mountain views, updated kitchens with quality appliances, two-car garages (for ski gear), and outdoor spaces. Home office space has become essential post-pandemic. Energy-efficient features matter here because older homes in the foothills can have high heating costs. Properties with southern exposure and good insulation market well. Smart home features, EV charging readiness, and modern bathrooms round out the premium feature set that separates top-tier rentals from average ones.
