Owning rental property in Edmonton or Calgary can be profitable, but many landlords underestimate the workload. From tenant management to legal compliance, the responsibilities pile up fast. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s time to hand things over to a professional, this checklist is for you.

At Davies Property Management, we provide full-service, hands-off property management across Edmonton and Calgary — giving landlords peace of mind and protecting their investments.

1. You’re Always On Call

If your phone never stops ringing with tenant requests, late-night emergencies, or repair issues, it’s a sign you’re stuck in “landlord mode.”

• Tenants expect 24/7 maintenance response.

• Ignored emergencies (like a furnace breakdown in January) can lead to property damage and liability.

How Davies helps: Our in-house maintenance teams in Edmonton and Calgary handle repairs quickly, with 24/7 emergency response. You’ll never lose sleep over tenant calls again.

2. You Struggle to Find or Keep Good Tenants

High turnover or long vacancies eat away at your cash flow. Poor tenant screening often leads to late rent, property damage, or even eviction.

How Davies helps:

• Rigorous tenant screening in Edmonton and Calgary.

• Credit, income, and rental history verification.

• Faster tenant placement through professional marketing.

3. You’re Not Confident About Legal Compliance

Alberta’s Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) is strict. A single mistake with notices, deposits, or lease terms can result in costly disputes or fines.

How Davies helps:

• Legally compliant leases and notices.

• Professional eviction services in Edmonton and Calgary.

• Documentation and inspection reports stored in your owner portal.

4. You’re Losing Track of Finances

If you’re juggling receipts, spreadsheets, and late rent payments, you’re exposing yourself to tax-time stress and potential financial mistakes.

How Davies helps:

• Transparent accounting with monthly statements.

• Owner portal Edmonton and Calgary: view rent collection, expenses, and reports in real time.

• Year-end summaries that simplify taxes.

5. Managing Your Property Feels Like a Second Job

The ultimate sign: when your rental property is draining your time, energy, and peace of mind instead of providing passive income.

How Davies helps:

• Hands-off property management = freedom to focus on your career, family, or scaling your portfolio.

• Full-service solutions: tenant placement, rent collection, inspections, maintenance, and accounting.

At Davies Property Management Edmonton and Calgary, we offer:

• Professional tenant screening and placement.

• In-house maintenance with 24/7 emergency response.

• Transparent financials through our owner portal.

• Legal compliance and eviction services when needed.
