Hoffman Realty, LLC, manager, Ms. Amanda Coffman, responded to our maintenance request in less than 12 hours after our Air Conditioning went out. Chill Masters was the name of the company who repaired our AC. The two refrigeration technicians were on-time and very informative. I want to thank the Hoffman Realty Company for being very professional and quick to respond to any maintenance issues in a timely manner. Customer service here is outstanding and highly recommend for future tenants to join this Property Management. My house was cooled off in less than 5 hours after service was performed.

Hoffman Realty has handled my property for over 10 years. I live out of town so it was imperative to find someone I could trust. MaryAnn and Andrew did not disappoint. They’ve managed my property like their own. They’re very knowledgeable. They do their research and manage to get me top dollar for my property. There are no words to express the level of service they provide. If you’re looking for someone you can trust who will take care of your property as their own, look no further. The entire staff is knowledgeable, helpful and communicates well. A special shout out to Jeanette! She’s handled my property for years. She responds right away when I reach out to her. She’s handled countless problems and emergencies. She listens to me when I need help. It’s always with a smile and a caring attitude. Honestly, if it wasn’t for Hoffman Realty, I would have sold my property years ago. Many thanks and gratitude.

We have been a vendor for Stacy and the team at Hoffman for over a year now, we deal with over ten vendors some over five years with each bringing their own challenges, Stacey is always accessible and easy to communicate with as a vendor. I imagine she takes the same approach with every customer, vendor. Renter and seller as she does with us which makes me confident that you will find the Hoffman team as enjoyable to work with as we do. Shawn Bradley Clark Property Maintenance

When we needed to move away from Tampa and rent our home, we were lucky to find the Hoffman Realty team. Their agents, especially Stacy Jordan and Amanda, handled the process for us. They were always incredibly responsive and quick to find solutions to any problems that arose. It really eased our mind having such a solid team there to answer any of our tenants needs, but also to sanity check things and make sure any work done was in our best interests. Our tenants were very happy with their service as well. Stacy especially made the process of moving back to Tampa and into our home go smoothly. We would absolutely recommend their services and would use them again without question!

FAQ

What insurance do I need as a Landlord?

For hazard coverage, you will need a “Dwelling Policy” for your house or a “Rented to Others” Rider for your condo. For liability coverage, make sure you have sufficient general liability coverage in your hazard policy or through a separate commercial liability policy.

If you are new to being a landlord, you should consult with your insurance agent to ensure you are properly protected.

How should a landlord hold escrow?

If your tenant gives you a security deposit, or advance rent, these funds must go into escrow. In Florida, it is best to open a separate bank account to hold escrow as the law requires that these funds not be commingled with your personal funds. The law dictates this account should be at a “Florida banking institution” and, if you choose an interest-bearing account, 75% of the interest, or 5% of the funds deposited, must be paid to your tenant.

What is a Stipulation?

A Stipulation is a court-approved Payment Plan for a tenant that has fallen behind on their rent payments to their Landlord. It is a way to avoid completing an eviction for your tenants who are serious about getting caught up.

Should I accept pets?

Almost 80% of renters in the Tampa Bay area have a pet, so landlords that promote a “no pet” policy miss a huge number of potential renters. If you limit the pool of potential renters, it takes longer to rent your property. Allowing the right kind of pets reduces your vacancy losses by ensuring that your property stays occupied and rented.

Should you rent your property furnished or unfurnished?

Typically short-term rentals are offered furnished as they are used for vacation or corporate housing. However, long-term rentals are typically offered unfurnished, because most long-term renters have their own furniture. In our experience, only a very small number of renters are looking for a furnished long-term rental in the Tampa Bay area, so it will take you a long time to find a long-term renter if you only offer your property furnished.

Should I rent my property without a background check?

All landlords want to rent their property to good tenants. The only effective (and legal) way to know if your potential new tenants will be good neighbors and trustworthy of your property is to perform a thorough background check. This should include credit, criminal, sex-offender, income, and prior landlord references. It’s better to leave your property vacant than to rent to the wrong person.
