We will help you receive the maximum rent while minimizing your liability exposure.

Marketing

GRG will present your property to the widest market possible. GRG will advertise by utilizing a yard sign, the internet, GRG websites, and we will work with other Realtors in the area. Our greatest marketing tool is our referral base of hundreds of satisfied owners and tenants.

Screening

GRG thoroughly screens applicants with regard to their ability to pay the rent. GRG will check employment, credit, criminal background, and rental history. Each applicant and occupant 18 years of age and older must complete a Texas Association of Realtors Residential Lease Application.

Leasing

As a member of the Texas Association of Realtors, GRG will use their leasing forms and addendums. These forms and addendum provide you with the maximum protection if a dispute should arise.

Move in / Move Out Inspections

Tenants are required to inspect the property and complete a Residential Lease Inventory and Condition Form upon move in. The property is inspected upon move-out and the two forms are compared. These inspections help ensure the proper deductions, above normal wear and tear, will be deducted from their deposit.

Deposits

Tenants are required to pay a Security Deposit on or before the execution of the lease. The amount of the Security Deposit will vary depending on the amount of the rent and type of property. At a property where pets are allowed (Note: each owner will determine if pets are allowed or not, and if Pets are allowed what kind of pets) a Pet Addendum is used and an additional deposit, as well as a one-time non-refundable payment, may be required.

Rent Collection

Rent is due on the 1st of the month and considered late on the 3rd of the month. Our rent collection procedures are fair but firm. In the event eviction is necessary, GRG will handle all aspects of the eviction process.

Maintenance

GRG handles maintenance and emergency repairs. When your property requires maintenance or repairs, GRG uses independent contractors that have been checked out by our management staff. Over time, GRG has found some of the best contractors in the workforce. Most of these contractors have provided service to our owners for many years.

Insurance

In addition to your Fire and Extended Coverage Insurance Policy, GRG requires that you maintain an "Owners, Landlord and Tenant Liability Policy". This coverage will help protect all involved against a wide range of loss.

You will receive a monthly accounting of all income and expenses, and a year-end statement along with a Form 1099.

Adkins Area Info

Adkins Area Info

The town of Adkins was named for William Adkins Jones who donated land for a flag station on the Galveston, Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway in the late 1800s. He owned a general store and was the first Adkins postmaster when a post office was established there in 1896. In the early 1900s the town had a population of about a hundred, two churches, and a school. After the rail line was abandoned and the major highways by-passed the town, the population steadily declined. In 1915 the post office was moved to nearby Sayers, however the post office and postal area are still called Adkins, even though almost nothing of the original town now remains. Source From Wikipedia
