Property Management

Owning and Managing real estate can often be challenging and time consuming. Some owners have the time, knowledge and skills to do so while others want the advantage of owning or retaining real estate as an investment but they don’t want to handle the day-to-day functions and responsibilities or they are not knowledgeable of the current laws. That is where Soniat Realty can help. Soniat Realty offers various management, leasing, sales and maintenance services which allow owners to select those that best fit their needs.

As a full-service real estate company we can review your property, make recommendations for rent amounts, policies, procedures and property upgrades to help maximize the income and increase property value.
