10 Signs It’s Time to Hand Over the Keys to Belong


Managing a rental property can be rewarding, but it’s not always smooth sailing. If any of these situations sound a little too familiar, it might be time to consider a better way to lease your home, with Belong.



1. Your Inbox is a Never-Ending Stream of Resident Emails


“My faucet is dripping!” “The Wi-Fi is down!” “What’s the pet policy again?” Managing tenant requests is a full-time job, and if you already have one of those, let Belong take the load off.



2. You Dread the Words “Tenant Screening”


Background checks, reference calls, credit reports… It’s like online dating but with higher stakes. With Belong, we’ll match your home with vetted, trustworthy residents, so you can skip the headaches.



3. You’ve Forgotten What “Weekends Off” Feel Like


Emergencies don’t care if it’s Sunday morning or Christmas Eve. From a burst pipe to a lost key, Belong’s 24/7 support ensures your tenants are covered while you enjoy your well-deserved downtime.



4. Your “DIY Repairs” Aren’t Winning Any Awards


Sure, you’re handy with a wrench, but sometimes it’s better (and safer) to call in the pros. Belong handles all maintenance requests with top-tier professionals, ensuring your home stays in tip-top shape.



5. Your Property Has Been Vacant for Too Long


Every day your home sits empty is money lost. Belong’s Guaranteed Time to Love ensures your property is leased quickly. With Belong, get your home leased in an average of 21 days, and if it takes longer than 45, we cover the placement fee!



6. You’re Tired of Chasing Down Late Rent Payments


Awkward conversations and tense emails are no way to start the month. Belong handles rent collection seamlessly, ensuring you get paid on time, every time.




Local regulations, lease agreements, security deposits … managing a rental property feels like preparing for a law exam. Belong’s expertise keeps you compliant, without the stress.



8. You Want a Tenant Experience That Reflects Your Own Standards


You wouldn’t want your family or friends living in a property with unresolved issues or poor communication. With Belong, tenants feel cared for, resulting in happier residents who treat your home with respect.



9. You’re Spending More Time Managing Than Relaxing


Remember when this was supposed to be passive income? Belong’s modern tools and dedicated team let you sit back and enjoy the rewards of homeownership without the effort.



10. You’re Ready to Upgrade to the 21st Century


Tired of juggling spreadsheets, sticky notes, and old-school property management practices? Belong’s seamless platform gives you real-time insights into your property, from rent payments to maintenance updates, all in one place.

Disclaimer: We don’t enjoy using the word ‘landlord’. We prefer to refer to members in our network as homeowners and residents, not landlords and tenants, since we’re on a mission to upend and redefine the traditional landlord-tenant relationship. That said, this article is for homeowners taking the leap for the first time who are looking for answers with more common industry terms like ‘landlords’ and ‘tenants’, so in some instances we have had to stick to the old moniker for owners of rental homes. This article is not intended as financial advice.
