Let Us Be Your Guide
For some property owners, transitioning into property management is a difficult adjustment due to emotional ties to the home. At VHS Property Management, we understand and help guide you through the rental process and give you the sound advice you need along the way. We like to say that “when you hire us, you have turned your home into a business.” It is VHS Property Management’s job to run that business for you and make it as profitable as possible. The management of your property must be approached with that mindset. We have a vested interest in making your property profitable along with ensuring the business runs smoothly with minimal costs.
Your Home Value
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.

Our Lease
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. In the event of a court case, all cases are heard in the County of Culpeper. We use this location because it is a smaller venue and our cases can be heard in a shorter timeframe than the larger counties.

Tenant Screening
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.
