Sam’s Proven System to Property Management
Backed by 20 years of personal & professional experience in Property Management:
Step 1: Pre-marketing property inspections and recommendations to maximize income potential. If needed, project coordination of upgrades is complimentary.
Step 2: Marketing of the property through the Multiple Listing Service and selected third party sites.
Step 3: A screening process like no other created by Sam to ensure time is not wasted.
Step 4: Individual in-person showings to highly qualified interested tenants. Even with the most qualified candidates, we must proceed with caution and pay close attention to any red flags that sneak out during the showing.
Step 5: A Thorough background check that includes income, credit, prior evictions, and landlord references. Although a high credit score is attractive, it’s usually not the main factor in the screening process. Some of my best tenants did not have the best score but with other compensating factors, they were chosen.
Step 6: Getting the job done over and over again so you don’t have to!
Leases, required disclosures, yearly contract extensions, routine property inspections, repairs’ coordination and payments, rent collection (via online tenant payment portal), ACH rent direct deposit to Landlords, and final tenant move out inspections. All included with our services!
“There is so much more into making your experience pleasurable that I would be happy to share with you. Know that I would not place a tenant in your property that I would not put in mine. My goal is to make sure your investment property is an asset not a liability!”
– Sam Medina
“I know what it’s like to have a bad experience when the wrong person is managing your property, that’s how it all started for me with the wrong property manager managing our property. But it showed us what is absolutely necessary in order to own rental properties successfully, AND manage them. I’m committed through my service to make new and longtime Landlords feel confident owning rental properties.”
– Sam Medina
Client Reviews:
We just had the most awesome experience with both Jessica and Sam. Initially we consulted Sam about the possibility of renting out our house. In the end we made the decision to sell our home and chose to have Jessica represent us as our agent based solely on our initial impression of Sam. We were thoroughly impressed by their experience in the real estate market from staging our home, making cosmetic/repair suggestions and pricing the home to attract buyers. Let me just say there was NON-STOP foot traffic (following COVID protocols) for the seven days leading up to reviewing the offers. We accepted an unbelievable offer and couldn’t have been happier! We were kept informed every step of the way through the entire process. We came away from our experience feeling more like their friends than their clients. Thanks Jessica & Sam! (BTW, Sam and Jessica are a husband & wife team. )

Sam Medina is great to work with. He managed my property for many years and recently it was put on the market. He was a tremendous negotiator who was able to close the sale with a price that I thought was not possible. (On the high end). I recommend Sam as a broker or property manager to someone who wants results and a truer professional.

Since we are out of town landlords, it was best to hire a prop/manager at Village Properties & Associates to rent out our house. There was a quick response from Sam and information was initially provided per email.
Sam was communicative to our calls/texts or emails and rental needs. We feel that his expertise and years of experience add to our final decision. We hope that our business relationship together with the new tenants will continue to be a blessing for a common good. God is good all the time. We appreciate your wisdom in negotiating for the family moving in very soon.

Jessica and Sam are top notch! They have been so helpful with both sides of our family getting things prepped and ready to rent and then taking over the position as Property Managers. They are friendly, helpful and have been a great part of the Village. We will be getting ready one of these days to put another property on the rental market or even the sales market, and we will definitely go to them to take care of our needs. Working with these two you not only get great Realtors that are working for you, but Property Managers and friends as well.

We recently relocated back to our home town with 10 days notice due to my husband’s job transfer and needed to find a property manager to rent our home in San Lorenzo. We were referred to contact Sam at Village Properties and he has been the biggest blessing! We made one simple phone call to inquire and he toured our home, started the marketing process, found us amazing tenants, and has been so professional, prompt, and extremely knowledgeable during this slightly stressful transition. We are beyond pleased to have Sam as our property manager and highly recommend him.
-Mironda M.
Sam has been managing my property for about a year and I couldn’t be happier. Sam is very knowledgeable about rental property and is always a step ahead. He found the renters, provided inspections, provided rental comps, helps the tenets and has made the whole process very easy. I highly recommend Sam if you have a property to rent and that needs managing!
