The team at Belong really cares. David even came over to answer my questions and provide feedback on what we should do before renting out the house. The process was really straightforward and they got a tenant in no time. I’ve enjoyed using their owners portal and haven’t had complaints or issues with the tenant so far.

David and the team at Belong take great care of my house. What I like the most about the interactions with them is that they keep their word: if they say something, you know it's going to happen. Oh, and they show up on time! So unusual when dealing with service professionals. Highly appreciated.

I've really enjoyed working with Ale, O, David and the rest of the member experience team as we've worked to find a great tenant and management our home. If you're looking for an awesome, down to earth property manager that actually cares about you and the people who rent from you, look no further. Two thumbs way up!

I'm on the board of a homeowner's association, and one of our owners contracted with Belong to manage the rental of their unit. Belong's staff promptly contacted the HOA to obtain copies of governing documents, and asked if there were any rules to be aware of, demonstrating that they know what they're doing, and care about compliance with the community's governing documents. Not only but I know they actually reviewed the documents, because they had a question about the number of pets permissible, because our rule was kind of vague. So good for them for being proactive in addressing potential problems before they become one.
