We deliver peace of mind to our owners. By maintaining our owners’ properties in pristine and sale-ready condition and by minimizing turnover (for we sign longer leases and only rarely relinquish them at renewal time), and by handling most maintenance issues ourselves, and above all by consistently paying our rent on time and in full, our owners are completely relieved of the chief headaches associated with owning income-producing rental property.

We maintain our owners’ properties in move-in ready, sale-ready, picture-perfect condition not least because our business utterly depends on our doing so. Like our owners, we’ve also got skin in the game. In order to continue earning the highest reviews with our customers, our properties must be consistently provided to them in top-notch condition.

We handle almost all maintenance issues that occasionally arise in the course of operations. In fact, owners never need hear from us regarding most maintenance issues. If something breaks, we simply get it fixed, right away, and done correctly by qualified personnel. And we pay the maintenance expenses up to $500 per month. Owners will only be solicited if something major happens (such as a hot water heater breakage at the end of its useful life).

Our housekeeping staff visit our owner’s property routinely and they assiduously ensure that everything is functioning correctly, and that nothing is broken. Moreover, at every turnover of our residents, our housekeepers leave our properties spotless.

Rents are paid on-time and in-full every month. We are proven, dependable, and well-funded corporation with an impressive track record of consistently paying all bills on-time.

We sign long-term leases (preferably and ideally for three years). So long as our business model continues to work profitably within a given area, we will always renew our leases for the properties situated there. We are in this business for the long haul. And we are committed to maintaining an excellent relationship with our owners and their managers.

We are a proven, reliable partner. As our owners acquire more properties, we gladly follow them to their new properties and sign more leases with them there. And once owners have leased to us for a while and have become well acquainted with us and had the opportunity to experience how we operate, they soon realize that we are an excellent partner for them. We are just the kind of hassle-free tenants they are seeking to attract and to retain.

In all our properties, we install camara doorbells and other security camaras with views aimed along all exterior walls and covering every door so that we have eyes on all entrances and exits. We also install smart window sensors which alert us immediately when windows have been opened wide enough to allow people to enter the home directly through the windows (partiers do this to circumvent the security cameras on the doors). We also install Mînut noise and occupancy sensors to prevent parties, damage, and neighbor complaints. Our operators receive alerts immediately if the occupancy level, noise volume, humidity, or temperature rises above allowed limits. We are notified straight away if a fire alarm ever goes off. We also know when our guest-residents arrive and leave the premises. We can detect motion when our guest-residents are not present. We install smart locks which we can control remotely over the internet. We always change the lock codes between tenants. And we install smart lighting which we can also control remotely to deter burglars when guests are not occupying the home. Moreover, we integrate all these smart home technologies using the I T T T (if this, then that) automation framework. If an unauthorized party is detected, a cease-and-desist message is sent immediately to the guest-residents via multiple channels. But of course, we do our utmost to screen out potentially problematic short-term tenants so that we never host them in the first place. We also install digital sound level meters to provide immediate feedback to our guests. Our guest-residents can see for themselves when their collective volume rises too loud. These decibel signs have proven very effective at curbing excessive noise levels. Studies of digital road speed feedback signs (i.e., “Your Speed ___” signs) have demonstrated their efficacy. So far, parties really haven’t been a problem for us (knock on wood) not lease because we are assiduously proactive at preventing them. This surveillance may all sound a bit Orwellian. But we dial it down substantially once we are assured that our new tenant-guests are going to prove fantastic, respectful residents and polite neighbors. But of course, we don’t have camaras inside the house or record any conversations inside or outside. Instead, our technology merely monitors noise levels using AI algorithms that can reliably detect the number of occupants on premises and distinguish between sounds emitted from TVs or Smart Speakers and actual humans present. And needless to say, if a family stays with us for several months and wants to throw a birthday party for their kid during the afternoon on a weekend for example, this is certainly not a problem. What is a problem and what we proactively deter and prevent is a large group of people gathering to throw an unauthorized, property-destroying, neighbor infuriating, particularly large and obscenely loud party. We’ll stop such parties before they get started. We are also currently experimenting with cannabis and cigarette particulate smoke detectors to prevent unauthorized smoking and vaping.

• Healthcare Contractors

  Many healthcare professionals travel on occasion and indeed some of them travel quite frequently and routinely for their work. Ten Crests provides temporary housing accommodations for traveling physicians, nurses, and other medical professionals who particularly desire accommodation throughout the duration of their temporary assignments in a residential home setting. We design our properties for sojourning medical professionals’ unique needs. These folks seek a home to reside in temporarily with their families. And that is where we come in. Ten Crests manages an inventory of short-term housing which is strategically placed to address the needs of these nomadic workers. Our inventory includes homes which are located near hospitals and other medical centers to serve the needs of this demographic.

• Construction and Disaster Relief Workers

  On special assignment, such as during emergencies, construction teams labor long and arduous hours performing their demanding, difficult, hard physical work. And at the end of their long tiresome workdays, disaster relief workers desire the comforts of a well-appointed, cozy home. Ten Crests furnishes our homes using only the highest quality mattresses and blackout curtains to facilitate deeply restful slumbers. And many of our homes include relaxing creature comforts such as hot tubs, saunas, pools, and jetted tubs. Whether on temporary assignment for a construction project or responding to a natural disaster, Ten Crests provides comfortable accommodation suitably designed to satisfy, please, and delight these essential workers.

• Military

  In the military, duty-station rotation is a fact of life. A soldier must obey orders. And contrary to popular supposition, for various reasons, military relocation orders are frequently not provided far enough in advance to allow families adequate time to figure out their new housing situation. Ten Crests aids these families and comes to their rescue. Our inventory includes temporary housing properties which are conveniently located near military bases. We acquire properties strategically located within the best school districts near military installations for the convenience of the soldiers who serve there and for their families.

• Athletes

  Ten Crests acquires properties in our inventory which are intentionally situated near sporting arenas, training camps, and universities. We provide hassle-free accommodations for athletes and the sporting organizations who sponsor them. Ten Crests accommodations are carefully crafted to provide maximum comfort for athletes during their temporary relocations which typically occur during training season.

• Corporate Relocations and Temporary Assignments

  For various reasons, companies of all sizes on occasion need to temporarily relocate some of their staff or need to provide temporary or interim housing for new or prospective staff. Whether for a few months during a temporary assignment or for just a few days during an interviewing round, Ten Crests assists companies with their temporary housing needs. And often, as it happens, there is not much forewarning available for corporations to plan for their staff relocations well in advance of the event. Necessary staff relocations simply arise organically as business conditions suddenly change. Ten Crests provides hassle-free housing, partnering with corporations every step of the way to relocate their staff with utmost ease, continuity, and comfort. We aide corporate staff by assisting with many relocation details and relieve staff from many relocation-related concerns so that they can better remain focused on their responsibilities in their new assignments.

Our owners can rest assured that Ten Crests has their back. For our interests are very well aligned. We’ve got skin in the same game our owners are playing. Income-generating property owners seek steady, reliable, hassle-free, inflation-adjusted rent with minimal tenant turnover. They desire tenants who will consistently take excellent care of their properties and who will handle all minor maintenance issues themselves and do so competently using qualified fixers. They want tenants who will continue leasing their properties for many years to come. And Ten Crests is exactly that type of tenant. We handle all minor maintenance issues up to $500 per month. And we maintain our owners’ properties in pristine, show-ready, sale-ready condition. Our business is utterly dependent upon our maintaining the properties we manage in excellent, top-notch condition. And we almost always renew our leases…so long as our business model continues to work in the carefully selected neighborhoods where we operate. We are our owners’ rental-arbitrage partner. We strive to be their best possible tenant. And we’re in partnership with our owners for the long haul.

Once a lease is signed with a property owner, either directly with the owner or with a management company, in very short order, we will have the owner’s property professionally designed, fully furnished and beautifully decorated, lighted, staged, professionally photographed, and queued up in our marketing system. All these tasks are completed typically within just a few days.

And soon thereafter, the first occupants will arrive to dwell in, to relax in, and to thoroughly enjoy their new tastefully designed and thoughtfully appointed home-away-from-home. Hospitality is the name of Ten Crests’ game. And we’re in it to win it. We aim to thrill, please, and delight our tenant-guests...and to win their repeat business.
