VHS MANAGEMENT
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT FOR BEALETON LANDLORDS
At VHS Property Management, we provide full-service Bealeton property management solutions designed for landlords, investors, and homeowners throughout Fauquier County. As Bealeton continues to experience rapid suburban growth and residential development, demand for quality rental housing has increased significantly—creating new opportunities for property owners and real estate investors alike.
Whether you own a single-family rental, townhouse, or small investment portfolio, our experienced team helps you maximize rental income while protecting the long-term value of your property. We understand the unique dynamics of Bealeton’s growing commuter-friendly market and provide personalized management services that reduce stress, minimize vacancy, and improve tenant retention.
VHS MANAGEMENT
VHS Property Management will provide and handle getting all the leasing documents signed with the new tenant. We use the standard Virginia Association of Realtors Lease with added addendums. The first Addendum tightens accountability and adds additional criteria to further protect you, the property owner. For example, insurance, handling of smoke detectors, instances of power outage, pets and more. The Second, Security Deposit Addendum, is added to remind tenants of their responsibilities upon move-out.
We market your property through our local Multiple Listing Service which feeds out to many top real estate sites on the web. In addition, we cooperate with other Realtors to rent your home at no extra charge to you. This means we have access to even more agents to get your property rented fast. We also offer Property Showings that include the use of special lockboxes on vacant homes that allow potential renters timely access to view the property 7 days a week which leads to faster occupancy.
We use PetScreening.com™ to help manage renters’ pets and assistance animals which allows us to offer our owners an additional layer of liability protection and a standardized, legally compliant process for dealing with household pets and assistance animals.
When you are ready to rent your property, we will prepare a market analysis to determine the best price for your home. We have a meticulous method for determining the value of your home. Our analyses are seasonal and on demand. We compare similar properties that have rented in the past and depending on the time of year, prices may be adjusted accordingly. We also factor in the number of current rentals available in a given area. Our goal is always to get top dollar for your rental property and to attract the best tenants.
Regular inspections help to identify potential problems with your property and ensure that the tenant is in compliance with all lease terms. We will conduct move in and move out inspections and we will coordinate any maintenance or repair word orders. Move out inspections are completed within 72 hours of the move out date and tenants will be notified.
The Real Estate Store Inc. is the sales side our Brokerage. When you decide to purchase or sell a home and need an agent who will represent your best interests, The Real Estate Store, Inc. is here for you. With an experienced agent by your side, we will guide you through the entire process from listing the property at the right price, successful negotiations, choosing the right lender, finding a home inspector and much more. We are here for all your Real Estate needs. Referrals Welcome.
For your protection and full legal compliance, all tenant security deposits are held by VHS Property Management in a separate, federally regulated escrow account —never co-mingled with operating funds. This ensures that deposits are properly safeguarded and available for return or deductions in accordance with Virginia landlordtenant laws. We handle all aspects of deposit management, including collection, documentation, and disbursement at move-out, along with detailed accounting and clear communication with both owners and tenants.
We use a standard rental application process and we screen tenants using a scoring matrix with the minimum being 12 points. There are several categories within our system that allow for point scoring and the total points are tallied at the end. This method allows us to use several factors to determine eligibility, and provides a more inclusive rental application process. Cosigners are also welcome however, certain factors such as past rental debts and evictions result in an automatic denial of the application.
Keeping tenants happy, from the moment they move in to the moment they move out requires a high level of customer service. Making tenants happy also increases your rental renewals and positive online reviews of your property which ultimately increases your revenue. At VHS Managements, our high standards of quality service apply to you, the owner AND the tenant.
Evictions are complicated and require a high level of legal knowledge. In the case of your tenant repeatedly violating your lease terms and rental agreement, we will handle all court documents and processes, including lease terminations or evictions. When needed, we will coordinate the process for any garnishments or warrants in debt with the local civil court.
