Rent Collection

Rent Collection

No rent, no profit. Fortunately, Area Texas has streamlined the rent collection process for tenants and owners. We offer your tenants five easy ways to pay rent, allowing owners to collect rent faster and more efficiently than if rent payment options were limited.

Once we receive the rent, we send you the deposits through a secure online rent payment system created with our partner, Chase Bank. Both you and your tenant benefit from such a quick and simple process.

When collection goes sour, we handle that, too. Standard services include FREE evictions when we place the tenant. If rent is not received by the due date state on the renter’s lease agreement, we access your rental property to post a 3 day notice to vacate. The tenant is then given 3 additional days to comply before our AREA Texas team files a petition to evict your tenant for you. All of these services come standard when you hire us to manage your rental property.
