Chicago RE Investments, LLC actively updates owners and investors with reports for their properties and promptly responds to any issues that owners or tenants may face. We perform all of the real estate duties that you need, removing any of the hassles you might face while managing property. At Chicago RE Investments, LLC, we provide the following services for you:
Chicago RE Investments, LLC collects monthly rent and provides late notices to tenants who have unpaid balances on their accounts. Rent is due on the first day of the month and considered late if paid after the fifth. Tenants have five different options available to pay rent, including payment through mail, drop box, tenant portal, credit card, and Walmart Payments.
At Chicago RE Investments, LLC, we know the importance of finding tenants who are a good match for your properties. During the application process, prospective tenants provide us with their license and social security number, so that we can run credit checks and background checks. Our company diligently reviews the results of the screening and makes an evaluation to ensure that they are the best fit for the residence.
At Chicago RE Investments, LLC, we handle tenant disputes and work to ensure that our tenants are fully satisfied with our service. We provide tenants with a wide variety of ways to contact us, including calling our office between 9 AM and 5 PM from Monday to Friday, emailing us, sending us a message directly through the tenant portal, or opting into our text messaging service.
We perform property leasing services including lease preparation, negotiation, and renewal. Our leases are fully compliant with federal, state, and local laws. Every year, we provide a lease extension addendum for tenants to renew their leases. Lease extensions are signed digitally through DocuSign, allowing owners and tenants to sign the extensions from the comfort of their homes. For ease of access, both investors and tenants may view their leases and lease extension addendums through the owner and tenant portals on Propertyware.
We perform move-in and move-out property inspections to check for any interior and exterior damages. Additionally, we help prepare properties for inspection every one to two years. During inspections, a tenant 18 years of age or older must be present at the residence. Chicago RE Investments, LLC provides tenants with advance notice of the inspection to ensure that someone will be at the residence when the inspector arrives. Tenants can request repair services ahead of the inspection from our company’s in-house maintenance team by logging into the tenant portal through the link in the header and navigating to the “Service Request” tab.
Chicago RE Investments, LLC provides corrective, preventive, and routine maintenance services. Our company has an in-house maintenance team and employs contractors that are fully equipped to provide tenants with repair services. Whether tenants begin to face plumbing issues, experience electrical problems, or notice other damages to the interior or exterior of your residence, we will resolve their maintenance issues in a timely fashion.
Tenants can submit maintenance requests in the “Service Request” section of the tenant portal. They can also link pictures or videos of the damages to the work order that they have sent in to help our maintenance crew assist them.
Owners and Investors can view the status of any work orders online through the owner portal in Propertyware. Additionally, they have the option of approving or rejecting existing work orders and leaving comments.
