Smart Landlord Solutions Kelly Claiborne, REALTOR®

Philadelphia, Montgomery, Bucks, Chester and Delaware counties

You know what your place is worth to you, but you're really not sure what a renter sees.

If the listing's been up and the calls slowed down, that usually isn't the whole market. It's often one fixable thing in the rent, the photos, or how the place is being shown. I can take a look and tell you what I see.

What I can help with

No packages, and no hard sell. Start with a second set of eyes on the listing, and go further only if you want to.

A free listing check

I'll look at the asking rent, the photos, and how the place is being shown, and share a few thoughts that might help. No cost, and no obligation. Use the notes yourself, or we can talk about next steps.

Help filling the vacancy

If you'd rather not keep running the process, I can handle the leasing work: marketing the unit, showings, and screening applicants, so you aren't doing all of that on your own.

A conversation about selling

Sometimes selling is worth talking through, especially if you'd rather not keep carrying a vacancy. If that's on your mind, we can look at it together.

Want a second set of eyes on the listing?

I'll look at the rent, the photos, and the showings, and tell you what I see.

How it works

  1. Tell me about the property

    The address, how long it's been listed, and what's been happening with showings and applications. A few sentences is enough.

  2. I'll take a look

    You'll get a second set of eyes, a few practical thoughts, not a lecture. If you want help from there, we'll talk about what that involves before anything starts.

  3. You decide what's next

    Use the notes and keep doing it yourself, have me help fill the unit, or explore selling. I'll follow your lead.

The cost of an empty month

Every week it sits empty costs you a week of rent you don't get back, so let's figure out which piece is holding it up. This is just the math on the rent you enter. It isn't a market report, and it doesn't guess how long the unit will sit.

One week empty Enter rent
One month empty Enter rent

A month empty costs the monthly rent you entered. A week empty is that rent times 12, divided by 52.

Kelly helped us sell our home. She is great at pricing properties so that they sell quickly. We had 4 offers on the table and our house sold for asking price with no seller assistance. I highly recommend Kelly. She is very logical and rational. I do have to say that she's very blunt, she will definitely tell you the honest truth whether or not you want to hear it.

Kelly Claiborne helped me purchased my first investment property. ... Her communication was great. Anytime, I called or texted she would response in a swift manner. She is very knowledgeable about real estate and her advice is priceless.

Kelly was extremely responsive and very pro-active on communicating with us, from the sale of our house. I wish I could find some criticism to help her better herself in her career, but I honestly can't think of anything that she could have done better for us.

Even though we were dealing with an annoying seller, she made sure to keep everything professional. She fought hard for me to make sure the seller kept their side of the deal.

If you want me to take a look, just say so.

The listing check is free, and you can use the notes yourself.

A second set of eyes, not another pitch

Kelly Claiborne, REALTOR® | Homestarr Realty

I work with landlords in Philadelphia, Montgomery, Bucks, Chester, and Delaware counties who are renting by owner. Vacancies happen, even when you've done things right. I'd rather help you think it through than talk you into a process you don't need.

You can email or call me directly. I'll pick up the conversation myself.

Questions I hear a lot

Is the listing check really free?

Yes. I'll look at the rent, the photos, and how the place is being shown, and I'll share a few thoughts. There's no cost, and you don't have to do anything with the notes if you don't want to.

Do I have to sign anything?

Not for the listing check. If we decide to work together on leasing or a sale, that would be covered by a written agreement, and only if you choose to go that far. I'm a licensed agent with Homestarr Realty.

Can you help if I want to keep managing it myself?

Yes. You can use the notes and keep doing it yourself. If you'd rather I handle the leasing work later, we can talk about that then.

What if I'm thinking about selling?

We can look at that together. I'm a licensed PA REALTOR® with Homestarr Realty, so if selling is on your mind, we can talk it through. You don't have to decide anything on the first conversation.

Tell me about the property

I'll get back to you myself. This isn't a call center, and I won't put you on a calendar you didn't ask for.

I'll only use this to get back to you about your property.
