If you know anyone interested please call or Email me and provide the below listed selection criteria. In-person showing to be scheduled after telephone interview conducted to mutual satisfaction of Landlord & prospective Tenant. Landlording style; I consider myself to be a "balanced Landlord" because as a Landlord, I know how to balance friendliness and professionalism. I make tenants feel at home and am known for making timely repairs, but also make sure that I'm always paid rent on time. Because of this, I tend to have long-term, stable tenants, and a well-maintained property. I know many of my tenants on a more personal level because I communicate directly with them and handle issues myself. I favor stable, reliable tenants over the highest possible rent. Tenants benefit from both the great landlording services I provide as a certified MA Landlord (certified directly from the MA Landlords Association) while also, over time, paying below-market rent for my preference for long-term renters. As such, my approach to landlording tends to keep my tenants happy. Actual unedited texts from different tenants before leaving..."You have no idea how much I will miss this house" AND "Thank you for letting us call 1060 Main St home. It has been a special place for us and you have been a terrific landlord!"
