Services
Work with a property management team who understands the challenges of owning rental property in Washington DC. We've helped countless landlords-why not you, too? Need to monitor your property's performance? Simply log in to our convenient online portal to view recent inspection notes & financial reports.
We will call your customer and explore the property management options available for their property. Every client who signs a management contract with us will net you a referral fee: 20% of the first month's rent. Referring a client to us doesn't need to mean losing a potential sales commission. Let us handle the property management of your client's home and we'll refer future sales back to you.
If the drains in your rental home aren't working properly, there is likely a clog in the pipes. You can often clear a small clog using a household plunger. Simply press the plunger over the drain hole to create suction and pump up and down vigorously. To prevent ongoing problems, consider installing drain traps to prevent hair and debris from entering your pipes.
If you're preparing for an upcoming move, we have created checklists to help answer questions you may have about the process. These checklists should help clarify the responsibilities on your plate. Your first month's rent, the property's security deposit, and any other applicable fees must be paid at the lease signing.
Eric was able to find an appropriate tenant within a week of listing the property. Since then he has handled tenant issues, only coming to me for decisions on courses of action. He knows when to contact me, and I have grown to trust him with my property. Eric and the Urban to Suburban team have been great.

Eric has been a pleasure to work with. Highly professional, honest with his assessments, and he has a great team of referral agents he works with. He has very fair pricing and does well with communicating. As a landlord, I felt so good to have Eric on my side and watching over my assets for me. He also helped me in my decision to sell my property and I am very happy with the result.

We have been blessed to have found Erik and UTSPM to manage our rental home. Renting a single-family property in NE DC takes a unique knowledge of the housing/rental market, and Erik found us responsible and vetted tenants. Erik is very responsive, experienced, and professional property manager. Moreover, Erik has shown great flexibility and composure in moments of unexpected adversity. We plan to continue using UTSPM as we move to put our rental home back on the market.

This is a long overdue review! Eric and his team have been managing my Parkside at College Park condo for approx. 2 years. I had horrible experience with prior management companies. I found Eric after researching and interviewing several companies. He went out to tour my property and was able to provide an honest assessment of what needed to be done in order to attract quality tenants. Since then, Eric has been able to secure great tenants who pay their rent on time:-) I have had stability and full occupancy over the last 2 years, which were issues in the past. Being an out of state owner, it

As many landlords are, I am very busy person who works a full-time job and has my own home to maintain in addition to the property I chose to rent to others. Finding free time is very difficult. Working with Urban to Suburban has made my life much easier. It’s given me more free time and peace of mind particularly when I travel. They have gotten me quality tenants and done so with a great turnaround time, leaving me less rent to cover with an empty property then when I was doing it myself. They are responsive to my renters needs and have handled repairs in the manner that we agreed upon with

Urban to Suburban Property Management has provided solid management for my community's rental units for several years. We have been very happy with UTSPM's overall service level and commitment to making sure our units are well maintained, the tenants are pleased, and that we are always in the loop about profitability. Our community and our board have been so impressed with UTSPM's service that in 2018 we expanded their services to manage the HOA for all 170+ units in our community.

I cannot say enough positive words regarding Eric and his team at Urban to Suburban Property Management. I was working with a different property manager that became unresponsive to me and my tenant. I knew I had to make an immediate change to initiate repairs to my property and reassure my tenant that I was working on the repairs. Eric provided a smooth transition and always responded to my questions within 24 hours if not sooner. It has also been the "small" things that really matter when working with Eric. For example, I now receive detailed monthly statements regarding income and expenses which

We’ve been with Urban to Suburban since 2012. Eric and staff are absolutely phenomenal. They are professional and have done an amazing job helping to keep our property rented. Our payments are always processed quickly and all other administrative tasks are handled efficiently. They’ve orchestrated getting items fixed and cleaned and have kept great relationships with us and our renters. Eric had gone out of his way to help us during tough times and always keeps us aware of new rules and policies. We absolutely recommend Urban to Suburban for your property management needs.

As renters, we really enjoyed having Eric and Urban to Suburban as our property managers. You get the perks of being with a big company (auto payments, etc.) but the personal attention as if you were dealing directly with a single-unit landlord. It was the right balance of hands on when you needed it but noninvasive when all was well. Many thanks to Eric and his team!

In 2012, I hired Eric, the owner of Urban to Suburban, to manage my Property in DC. I am a military officer and I haven't been back to D.C. for nearly 4 years. I've deployed a couple of times. Eric has done more than I could ever ask him to do. He has managed my property as if it was his. No matter how far I am, I can always count on Eric to take care of things, no matter how big or small. Two years ago on New Years Eve, my property flooded, due to some negligence of a next door neighbor. I was also deployed overseas. Eric contacted me and took care of everything, to include gutting

Urban to Suburban has been a wonderful company to work with. Eric is responsive to all of our questions and concerns. He found a tenant for our property in no time! We appreciate his honesty and care, and we always engage in good, open dialogue. We appreciate him and are so glad that we chose him as our property manager!

Good management company for finding tenants but terrible at managing property. I have work with Eric who managed my properties but due to my schedule I stuck around instead of looking for another company. After an encounter with Eric who is very unprofessional and showed his true color to me and others that I have referred to him; it confirmed that I need to move on. He is very insulting and rude but as I told him; I wish him all the best so good luck working with him if you chose to go with the company.

If I was staying in the area, I would not relieve myself of their services. The 2 staff members I've met are very nice, helpful, and efficient responding to any type of issue. Having lived in 7 different units in the last 7 years across Philly, Pittsburgh, Arlington, and DC, I'd have to say Eric is the best landlord / property manager I've had.
