At Apex Property Management, we know that every investment journey has its seasons. Whether you’re repositioning your portfolio, cashing out equity, or simply moving into a new chapter, our role is to help make that transition as smooth and strategic as possible — while protecting your property, your residents, and your long-term goals.

Having participated in hundreds of transactions (and with firsthand experience owning and operating a real estate brokerage), we understand the unique distinction between property management services and real estate sales. Respecting that line isn’t just procedural — it safeguards you, your residents, and your investment.

✅ What We Will Do

If the Property Will Be Vacant

We’ll continue management through turnover according to our standard process to ensure your property meets Apex’s Rental Prep Standards before it’s listed for sale.

• Facilitate Rental Prep using our established checklist and preferred vendors.

  → See: Rental Prep List and Apex Turnover Process Guide: What to Expect When a Resident Moves Out.

• Complete all move-out inspections, coordinate cleaning and maintenance, and process the security deposit disposition.

• Terminate management at the conclusion of turnover and provide the new agent or owner with necessary access and documentation.

Timing Note:

Rental prep work typically requires a few business days to complete once the move-out inspection is done, depending on vendor availability and scope of work. During this time, our team coordinates multiple moving parts — cleaning, repairs, quality checks, and photography, when applicable.

To protect your investment and ensure accountability:

• We’re unable to allow outside contractors, agents, or buyers access during the active prep period.
• This limitation avoids scheduling conflicts, liability confusion, and potential damage.

Restricting access allows us to complete work efficiently, ensuring your property is market-ready — faster and to a higher standard.

If a Resident Is Still Occupying the Property

• We will continue enforcing lease terms and upholding the resident’s right to Quiet Enjoyment.
• Our team will maintain the property per usual, handle maintenance requests, and communicate with the resident on your behalf as the landlord.

🚫 What We Will Not Do

While your property is actively managed by Apex, we do not:

• Coordinate or attend real estate showings or appraisals.
• Communicate directly with third-party agents, buyers, or inspectors.
• Oversee property sale preparation or listing photography beyond our standard Rental Prep process.
