Are you working with a property management company that guarantees its work?
If your answer is no, that requires some serious consideration.
At Bell Properties, we provide a number of guarantees to the property owners, landlords, and investors who trust us with their assets. For us, it’s about accountability. For you, it’s about peace of mind.
We believe that a lot of the services and value we provide are unique. And what truly sets us apart are the guarantees we offer. These guarantees act as a safety net, ensuring that the property, and the owner’s income, is protected, no matter what challenges arise.
When a property management company stands behind its services with strong promises, investors can rest easier knowing they’ve chosen a partner who’s invested in their success.

Tenant Placement Guarantee: Confidence in Quality Tenants
We guarantee any tenant we place for 12 months, otherwise we will place a new tenant for free.
Why is this important? Because the single most important factor in rental success is the tenant who is living in your property. That’s the person who is contributing to the maintenance of your property. That’s the person who is paying rent on time every month.
A responsible, respectful tenant who pays on time and stays for the full lease term can make investing in rental property a dream. On the other hand, a problematic tenant can cost thousands in lost rent, legal fees, and property damage.
That’s why Bell Properties offers a Tenant Placement Guarantee. This means that if the tenant we place turns out to be a poor fit, meaning they break the lease early, default on rent, disappear in the middle of the night, or cause repeated issues, we will replace the tenant at no additional cost.
This shows you how confident we are in our tenant screening and leasing process. The benefits to investors who work with us include:
Risk Reduction. The financial blow of placing a bad tenant is softened by knowing you won’t pay again for a replacement. You hire us to find a qualified tenant who is trustworthy and responsible. If we make a mistake, we take accountability.
Accountability. Like we said: it’s about accountability. This guarantee incentivizes our team to screen potential tenants rigorously. If we don’t, the risk shifts off of you and onto us. We’re the ones on the hook for a bad choice.
Long-Term Thinking. Guarantees like this show a commitment to sustainable success, not just quick tenant placement.
We rarely find ourselves having to replace a tenant we’ve screened and welcomed.
Cancellation Guarantee: If You’re Not Happy, We Won’t Keep You Tied to Us
We’ll never lock you into a long contract, or charge huge fees if you want to cancel. If we are not performing, simply give us 30 days notice to cancel the contract. It’s that easy.
You shouldn’t be bound to your management company forever, especially if they’re not performing the way you expected. At Bell Properties, we work hard to exceed your expectations all the time. Whether we’re placing a tenant, collecting rent, responding to maintenance, or negotiating a lease renewal, it’s with your satisfaction in mind.
Eviction Guarantee: A Shield from Legal Headaches
Evictions in California are a headache, and they’re every landlord’s nightmare. Even with the most organized property management team on your side and the best eviction attorney, they can be lengthy, expensive, and emotionally draining. The average eviction in California, for example, can cost a lot more than the filing paperwork when you factor in legal fees, lost rent, court costs, and potential property damage.
Yikes. You need an eviction guarantee.
And that’s what we provide. We stand behind our placements. If we place a tenant and an eviction becomes necessary, we’ll cover up to $1000 of the eviction costs.
Why is this so important to California rental property owners?
Zero Legal Exposure. We manage legal filings, court appearances, and enforcement.
Peace of Mind. You’re protected from one of the worst-case scenarios in property ownership.
Stronger Tenant Screening. Like the tenant guarantee, this policy encourages thorough vetting upfront.
At Bell Properties, we rarely have to evict. That’s thanks to our great tenant relationships, our rigorous screening process, and our willingness to work through conflicts and disputes with the best potential outcome in mind. But if we do need to head to the courthouse, you’re not going to face a huge bill.
Pet Damage Guarantee: No Bark About It
We are always telling rental property owners that allowing pets in California is a good idea.
Why? Because more than 70 percent of the tenant pool has at least one pet. Because we want to screen the pets and provide a pet policy. We want to collect a pet fee. We want to limit the opportunity to sneak in a pet that has not been authorized.
Because we think allowing pets is a good idea, we have some responsibility around making sure your property is protected from potential pet damage and liability. We’re realists. Dogs bit. Cats scratch. Things happen.
When we place a pet, we stand behind the decision with $1,000 additional coverage for owners, beyond the tenant’s security deposit.
At Bell Properties, we’ve found that pet owners generally care about their animals and they also care about their homes. But we’re also putting your property first and ensuring that it remains in excellent condition.
Why Guarantees Matter More Today Than Ever
The rental market is evolving. Especially in California, where tenant protections are strong. Whether we’re in Southern California, the High Desert, or the Central Valley, rental property owners face more risk and uncertainty than they ever have.
Property management is essential.
Property management that’s guaranteed is even better.
With rising tenant expectations, fluctuating rental rates, and increased regulatory pressure on landlords, investors need to be more strategic than ever. Partnering with a property manager that offers service guarantees isn’t just about convenience. It’s really about creating a resilient investment strategy.
Guarantees show that your management company:
Believes in its processes and knows what works.
Is confident in its people and their training.
Share your financial risk so you’re not holding an unfair share of the liability.
This alignment of interests transforms your manager from a vendor into a true partner. At Bell Properties, we’re not just making recommendations. We’re standing by them.
Why Choose Bell Properties and Our Guarantees for California Management
When you’re selective, you end up happier with your results. We love talking to new potential owners about our services. We love explaining our guarantees, especially because we know that this is rare in property management. Not everyone is willing to stand by their work financially.
We are.
And by signing on with a management company that provides guarantees, you’re getting more protection for your property, more peace of mind for yourself, and ultimately, a more profitable rental property.
Not working with us yet?
As you explore your options for local property management, ask what’s included and what isn’t. Read the fine print. Some companies will offer guarantees, but they’ll have time limits, geographic restrictions, or caps on what would be covered.
At Bell Properties, we have a strong business model in place that’s driven by ethics, accountability, and transparency. We serve your property with these principled disciplines:
Radical Truth
Radical Transparency
That’s what makes guarantees a no-brainer for us. When a tenant we have placed needs to be evicted for nonpayment of rent, it should not be your problem. It’s our problem.
We believe that peace of mind is worth paying for. Whether you’re managing on your own or working with a company that cannot guarantee its work, consider upgrading your services. Partnering with the wrong company can leave you exposed.
Hiring a property management company that offers meaningful, clearly defined guarantees gives you something priceless: peace of mind. Partnering with Bell Properties will lead to an easier and more profitable rental experience. It means fewer financial surprises. Fewer nights worrying about whether the rent will arrive. Fewer headaches dealing with repairs or legal disputes. Most importantly, it allows you to focus on what really matters: building your portfolio, increasing your returns, and enjoying the benefits of a secure, hands-free investment.
In today’s competitive rental landscape, guarantees aren’t just a bonus. They’re becoming the standard for serious investors. If your property manager doesn’t offer them, it may be time to look for one who does. Contact us at Bell Properties.
