What this is

A short list, managed closely

We cap how many homes we take on. That is the whole strategy, and it is the reason nothing sits in a queue waiting for someone to get to it.

Houses, not complexes

Single-family homes and duplexes only, every one of them built after 1950. No big old houses chopped into four units, no shared meters, no apartment on the other side of a hundred-year-old floor joist.

Fast is the whole point

Messages get answered quickly, by a person who already knows your house. Nothing disappears into a ticket queue, and you never have to send it twice to find out whether it landed.

Maintenance before it's an emergency

Furnaces, water heaters, gutters, filters — the boring things run on a schedule so they don't become the 2 a.m. things. When something does break anyway, it gets scheduled and you hear who's coming and when.

Why the list stays short

Thirteen homes today, twenty at the most. Past that, response times slip and maintenance turns into triage. We would rather manage a small number of properties properly than a large number badly, so we cap it on purpose.

Current availability

What's open right now

Our openings are posted on TurboTenant, and that is the only list. If a unit isn't posted there, it isn't available — no waiting list, no off-market deals, no exceptions. The listing page carries rent, deposit, square footage, and the date it's ready.

Fast is a feature. Most of this job is just answering people. Wade Bartels, Proactive Property Management

How to apply

Four steps, no mystery

  1. Find the unit

    Every active listing lives on the Available Rentals page. Photos, rent, deposit, and the date it's ready are all in the listing itself.

  2. Tour it

    Request a showing through the listing. You'll walk the actual unit you'd be renting, not a model or a similar floor plan down the block.

  3. Apply through TurboTenant

    Applications, identification, and income documents go through TurboTenant's secure portal. Every completed application is reviewed against the same written criteria, in the order received — those criteria are posted in full on the Tenant Resources page.

  4. Sign and get keys

    Approved applicants sign electronically. The security deposit and first month's rent are due before move-in. Nebraska caps a security deposit at one month's rent, and we don't charge more than the cap.
