A practical plan for your rental.
Whether you are changing managers, turning a former home into a rental, or moving out of state, the starting point is the property and the agreement.
Review the property
Share the address, occupancy, lease status, condition, HOA rules, and timing. Discuss rental positioning, known maintenance, and the work needed before a resident moves in.
Understand the agreement
Review management scope, fees, repair approvals, reserves, reporting, and owner responsibilities in writing before choosing your start date.
Plan the transition
Coordinate existing lease documents, keys, access, property information, and account setup. An occupied home and a vacant home need different transition plans.
Stay connected
Use Buildium owner access and the local team to keep property information and communication organized while you focus on your next move.
JBLM PCS Property Management
Moving away? Plan before you become a landlord.
Keeping your home after a PCS can support a long-term ownership plan. Compare expected rent against mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, management, vacancy, repairs, and maintenance reserves. Check HOA rental restrictions and discuss financing and insurance requirements with the appropriate professionals.

Agent-Friendly Property Management
Capitol Property Management is intentionally designed to work with real estate agents—not compete with them. When an agent refers a client to us for property management, the sales relationship remains with the referring agent.
01
Refer with confidence
Your client receives professional management while you remain their real estate connection.
02
Relationship protected
When that owner is ready to buy or sell, the client is directed back to the original referring agent.
Property Care
More than coordinating a repair request.
Owners benefit from Capitol's broader property-service network, including in-house general contracting and trade support that can help address issues when they arise.
- General contractingRepairs, turnover work, improvements, and broader property projects.
- Electrical & HVACAccess to in-house trade resources when electrical or heating and cooling work is needed.
- Coordinated supportOne local team helping keep communication and property needs moving in the same direction.
