Columbus Property Management for Strategic Rental Owners & Real Estate Investors
Our Columbus property management services are designed to maximize returns, minimize liability, and ensure resident satisfaction month after month.

Property Management Services Aligned with Your Real Estate Investment Goals
Quick Leasing to Excellent Residents
Filling vacant rentals with quality residents can be stressful. That’s why our top priority is renting your properties quickly to the best residents possible. Our comprehensive screening process ensures your property is filled with exceptional residents. We also take care of the entire renting process—from preparing your listing to marketing your property and showing it to prospective residents. And that’s not even the best part…

Our leasing process is completely free—there are absolutely no leasing or tenant placement fees. We believe in finding great residents and keeping them in your property for as long as possible.
We understand Columbus property management and know how to lease properties in neighborhoods like Old Town East, Downtown, Clintonville, and Italian Village, as well as suburbs like Dublin, Hilliard, Worthington, Westerville, Grove City, and many more.
Systems & Processes for Exceptional Service
Property management is a complicated business, and it can be easy to let things slip through the cracks. Not at RL. Our company was founded by engineers, so we understand the importance of structure and attention to detail. We have systems & processes in place to ensure nothing goes overlooked. We help you succeed by covering lease signing, rent collection, maintenance scheduling, and much more.
