Placing Tenants in Your Investment Property
Placing great tenants in your Sunnyvale property is our first order of business. Vacancy is expensive, so we work quickly to prepare and market your home to attract high quality tenants. We use online marketing strategies as well as yard signs and our relationships within the real estate community to find prospective residents any time you have a vacancy. We know that the best tenants look for the best properties. We make sure yours gets their immediate attention.
Do you have a rental property in Downtown Sunnyvale, Cherry Chase, Lakewood Village, San Miguel, or the surrounding neighborhoods?
REC Rentals can improve your leasing process and ensure we place responsible tenants.
Our leasing process includes:
Market-based rental property pricing.
Lower vacancy and turnover rates for higher ROI.
Property inspections before we market your rental.
Advertising and property showings.
Tenant applications and screenings.
Strong and protective lease agreements.
We’ll place your tenant, execute your lease, and then offer our outstanding management services. However, you only need our leasing services, we’ll turnover all the paperwork and documentation, and wish you a successful rental experience.

Happy Customer
I used REC Rental Service to manage my condo rental in Saratoga for about 20 years. Bob and Diane took care of everything; finding and managing good tenants, paying the bills, sending statements, and keeping me informed.. We did a minor remodel 6 years ago, and they found all the subcontractors and managed the whole project. I recently decided to sell the condo, and used REC Real Estate to list and sell the unit. Mike took care of getting new carpet, paint, staging, etc.. The unit sold in just a couple days for above asking price. Mike kept me up to date throughout the entire process, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. This is a family business, and I have been very happy to work with them for all these years.
