"I self-managed for years because I was never satisfied with the results until I found LongStreet Property Management. In a short time, turnover was reduced, quality maintenance was prioritized, curb appeal improved, and rents increased. While ROI significantly improved, my landlord worries were eliminated."

"My husband and I moved were searching hard to find a place to rent. We came across the perfect listing, applied immediately, and ever since then we’ve had a wonderful experience with LongStreet Property Management. All of our questions are answered in a timely fashion and we were met with caring people that got us into a lovely place."
