			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/insurance.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-632" title="insurance" src="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/insurance.jpg" alt="" width="259" height="194" /></a>If you own rental property, it might not be covered by home owners insurance. Maybe it&#8217;s time that you look into landlord insurance instead.</p>
<p><strong>What is Landlord Insurance</strong></p>
<p>Landlord insurance is an insurance policy that covers a property owner from financial losses connected to rental properties. The policy usually covers the building, along with any contents inside that belong to the landlord.</p>
<p>Landlord policies will usually cover most natural disasters such as fire, lightning, earthquake, storm, theft, and malicious damage. Some policies also cover lost rental income if the house is damaged and uninhabitable, and some liability protection for the owner in case of injury or a lawsuit. If lost rental income isn’t included, you might be able to add the coverage for an additional $50 a year.</p>
<p>Most landlord policies will <strong>not</strong> cover the tenant&#8217;s possessions. For this reason, many landlords will require tenants get renter&#8217;s insurance to cover their personal belongings.</p>
<p>Of course each policy is different, so always check with your insurance agent for coverage details and be sure to read the fine print.</p>
<p><strong>Why Do You Need It</strong></p>
<p>Maybe you&#8217;re a real estate investor with multiple properties to rent.</p>
<p>Maybe you&#8217;re moving into a bigger home, and turning your old home into rental property.</p>
<p>Or maybe you&#8217;ve tried to sell your home without success and now you&#8217;re thinking of renting it out.</p>
<p>Whatever the reason, if you&#8217;re thinking about renting out your home, you need to look into getting landlord insurance.</p>
<p>Homeowners insurance covers your house if it burns down. It covers your possessions if there’s a break-in, and it covers medical and legal bills if someone gets hurt on your property. The problem is, it might not offer protection to you if you decide to rent out your home. That&#8217;s where landlord insurance comes in.</p>
<p>Homeowners insurance typically covers owner-occupied, single family residences. When your home doesn&#8217;t meet that definition any longer because it&#8217;s being rented out, it&#8217;s no longer covered.</p>
<p>The last thing you want to see happen, is for a disaster to occur and the insurance company deny your claim, simply because you were renting out your property, but never thought to get a landlord insurance policy, yet it happens all the time.</p>
<p>Most homeowners policies will cover an occasional short-term rental if, for example, you&#8217;re going out of town for a few weeks. But if you have a vacation home that you&#8217;ve decided to use as income property, that&#8217;s a lot higher risk for the insurance company.</p>
<p>When you rent your home out on a full-time basis, you have an increased responsibility for injuries on the property, whether it&#8217;s to your tenant, their guests, or anyone one else who happens to be at the home.</p>
<p>When you decide to become a landlord, inform your insurer and ask about your need for a landlord insurance policy. Expect to pay 15% &#8211; 20% more than you did for homeowner&#8217;s insurance, but the coverage is well worth it.</p>
<p>Also consider an umbrella policy that provides additional liability protection beyond the limits of your landlord policy if you own multiple rental properties. As always, when in doubt, ask your insurance agent.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/homewarranty.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-626" title="homewarranty" src="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/homewarranty.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="225" /></a>The # 1 concern most homeowners have when renting a home is the fear that a tenant will destroy their property, leaving them responsible for costly repairs.</p>
<p>With a home warranty, most of these fears can be erased, knowing that if a major repair is ever needed, it&#8217;s covered.</p>
<p>If you own rental property, we recommend purchasing a home warranty, no matter the age of your home.</p>
<p><strong>Why Buy a Home Warranty?</strong></p>
<p>A home warranty is a one-year residential service contract that provides repair or replacement coverage for the major operating systems and appliances in a home that typically break down over time.</p>
<p><strong>Why Buy a Home Warranty?</strong></p>
<p>A home warranty helps protect your investment while you focus on enjoying your home. It&#8217;s like having insurance on all the major systems and appliances in your home. While a home warranty cannot prevent something from breaking, it can save you lots of money on costly repairs and replacements.</p>
<p><strong>A home warranty offers the following benefits: </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Protection from potentially huge, costly system or appliance repair and replacement bills. Whether it&#8217;s your heating and air conditioning, refrigerator, or something electrical, one event could literally wipe out your savings. By having a home warranty, you pay a small service fee and a repair man is on the way.</li>
<li>There are no more hassles searching for a reputable contractor you can trust. Anytime a covered item fails, just call to request service. Once coverage is verified, a prescreened service contractor is sent to your home to take care of the problem. You can feel comfortable about who’s coming into your home and you can get back to enjoying the more important things in life.</li>
<li>If the repairman determines your covered system or appliance cannot be repaired, they’ll replace it. It doesn’t matter how old it is, or what brand you have or even if the part is obsolete.</li>
<li>Home Warranties are very affordable. For as little as $30 a month, you can get the piece of mind knowing that if something breaks, you&#8217;re likely covered.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you&#8217;re planning to rent your property and have concerns about being responsible for future repairs, consider getting a home warranty for your home.</p>
<p>To request a sample contract to review specific coverage, terms, limitations, and service call amounts, just ask us and we&#8217;ll gladly discuss options that may be available.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s a summary of our services and what we offer:</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/a18.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-590" title="a18" src="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/a18-300x231.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="231" /></a>NO FEES Up Front!</strong></p>
<p>We only get paid after we&#8217;ve found you a tenant. Unlike many of our competitors, we <strong>never </strong>charge you a fee to get started. We only collect our fee after we do all the following:</p>
<p><strong>Initial Preparation </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>We review the current rental market conditions in your neighborhood.</strong> The Atlanta real estate market is constantly changing. Rental market conditions change as fast as the economy. This includes monthly rent prices. We&#8217;ll tell you how many other rental properties are on the market in your area, how much they&#8217;re asking, how much they&#8217;ve rented for in the past, and even give you an estimate on the length of time it should take to locate an applicant for your home. We&#8217;ll provide you with all the facts. You determine your asking rent price.</li>
<li><strong>If your property is currently occupied, we&#8217;ll co-ordinate our marketing to work smoothly with the move-out. </strong>We&#8217;ll make everything seamless as possible, allowing your current occupants to get moved out, get the home prepared for the next tenant, and have everything organized so that home spends as little time as possible without an occupant.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Getting the Property Ready to Rent</strong></p>
<p>We&#8217;ll provide you with a list of things to do to get your property ready to rent. We&#8217;ll discuss important issues such as landlord insurance, home warranties, HOA requirements (if applicable), home maintenance, and so forth.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll visit with you in person at the home, take photos to use for our advertising, and make sure everything is fully prepared to go on the market.</p>
<p><strong>We Begin Marketing Your Home</strong></p>
<p>You could spend thousands advertising your own property for maximum results, or you can tap into our proven marketing machine and locate a good tenant. We have a proven marketing and leasing strategy. We&#8217;ll market your home with the same intensity, no matter if your asking price is $700 or over $4,000 a month.</p>
<ul>
<li>Unlike most of our competitors, we market your home to the entire Atlanta Realtor community via the local MLS system. Many of our tenants come from other agents who will learn about your home this way, and in return, will bring a tenant.</li>
<li>Internet advertising and website exposure account for nearly 80% of our tenants. Renters don&#8217;t go to newspaper classifieds anymore when it&#8217;s time to find a home, they go online. We&#8217;ll place your home on dozens of the top real estate websites, both local and national. In addition, most of our properties find tenants simply by being placed on our very own website: AtlantaLifestyle.com, which currently gets <strong>over 5,000 visitors <span style="text-decoration: underline;">each week;</span></strong> all who are looking for rental homes. You&#8217;d spend thousands of dollars trying to duplicate the amount of exposure we can provide you.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>We Handle All the Showings</strong></p>
<p>Only licensed real estate professionals will show your home. Our licensed agents show property seven days a week and are available at any time to help tenants find the perfect home. Our team of experienced leasing professionals are very mobile and often work from laptops, smart phones, and other portable devices, making them extremely tech-savvy when dealing with today&#8217;s technology driven consumer. Phone calls about your home are directly routed to professionals who are intimately familiar with your property and great at screening potential applicants.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/magnifying.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-591" title="magnifying" src="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/magnifying.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="225" /></a>We Screen All Applicants for You, But You Make All the Decisions</strong></p>
<p>As a landlord, nothing could be worse than renting your home to an unqualified tenant who won&#8217;t pay rent. Screening applicants is one of the most important functions we provide when you hire us. We&#8217;ll contact you as soon as we receive a rental application for your home. We&#8217;ll provide you with the most comprehensive screening services in the industry. On every application we recieve, we&#8217;ll pull credit reports, verify employment, check rental history, and conduct thorough background checks.</p>
<p>On every application, you&#8217;ll get a detailed report from us, helping you make the best decision on which applicant to approve. We&#8217;ll help you evaluate all applicants and show you how to best protect your interests, even if it means requesting a larger security deposit from a potential tenant. We&#8217;ll be there every step of the way to help you make a wise decision.</p>
<p>Since you&#8217;ll be managing the tenant, we feel you should be involved in the decision-making and the terms of the lease. We&#8217;ll get your authorization in writing and prepare the paperwork, just as you have approved it.</p>
<p><strong>Sign the Lease</strong></p>
<p>Once you choose a tenant, we&#8217;ll deal with all the final details such as negotiations, lease signing, security deposit submittal, move-in inspections, and collecting the first month&#8217;s rent. We&#8217;ll also provide any required exhibits, like lead-based paint disclosures, pet addendums, special stipulations, mold disclosures, and more.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/feat1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-592" title="feat1" src="http://atlantalifestyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/feat1-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a>You Get All the Signed Documents and Security Deposit</strong></p>
<p><strong>We keep the 1<sup>st</sup> Month&#8217;s Rent as Our Commission</strong></p>
<p>Yes our fees are comparable to our competition, but our results far exceed them. We guarantee to find a tenant for your home and we only get paid <strong>after</strong> we&#8217;ve extensively advertised your home, showed it to prospective tenants, screened all applicants, negotiated lease terms, and everything else listed above.</p>
<p>Why risk having your home sit empty for months, dealing with a real estate company who doesn&#8217;t have a clue how to get the job done! We realize homeowners have a mortgage payment due every 30 days, so our goal is to get your home rented quickly and only to qualified tenants.</p>
<p>Plus, we&#8217;ll save you thousands of dollars in advertising costs and potential liability, compared to you attempting to handle all these tasks on your own.</p>
<p><strong>Next Year: If the tenant renews the lease or later buys your property, you don&#8217;t owe us anything. </strong></p>
<p>To get started, <a title="Contact" href="http://atlantalifestyle.com/contact">contact us</a> today and let us put our proven methods to work for you!</p>

Most companies try to lock you into a long-term contract, but not us.</p>
<p>Because we are so confident in our marketing program, we are proud to offer you a <strong>&#8220;One-Day-At-A-Time&#8221;</strong> Listing Agreement. The way it works is simple:</p>
<p>During the time that we have your home listed on the market, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">if at any time</span> during the entire process, you don’t feel like we’re doing the absolute best job in getting your home marketed for you, you can immediately end our listing agreement and we’ll go our separate ways.</p>
<p>All we ask is that if the rare chance occurs that you’re not satisfied with our performance, give us 24 hours to correct it. If we don’t, we’ll give you back the listing.</p>
<p>It’s that simple because if you’re not happy, we must not be doing our job and unlike most real estate companies who list your home and then let it sit there for months and months with no results, that’s not what we do. We get our homes rented or sold.</p>
