Property management
Full-service management for Chicago rental buildings.
For owners of two-flats to twelve-unit buildings and single-family homes who want the building run well - and want to see that it is.
Maintenance and emergencies
- Repairs handled by Forza's own maintenance crew, with outside trades when a job calls for a licensed specialist.
- Every evening open requests are sorted by urgency - emergencies, then safety and habitability, then the rest - and grouped by location.
- Burst pipes, sewage backups, no heat in cold weather, gas or fire: the team is alerted the moment it's logged.
- Unit turns planned as soon as a move-out is on the calendar.
- Every repair recorded in your building's maintenance history.
City of Chicago compliance
- Every building checked each morning against the City's 311 complaints, building violations, administrative hearings, permits and the scofflaw list.
- Building-related 311 calls flagged to the team during the day, so a tenant's complaint is dealt with before an inspector visits.
- Open violations, hearing dates and permit-needed items kept on one list per building.
- Heat season, lease notice dates and renewals on the calendar, not left to memory.
Tenants and leasing
- Units priced to the market with comparables, marketed, shown and leased - see leasing.
- Fair-housing-compliant screening, applied the same way to every applicant.
- CHA and Housing Choice Voucher tenancies: requests for tenancy approval, inspections prep, HAP contracts and rent changes.
- Leases and renewals signed electronically and filed to the tenant's record.
Rent, accounting and reporting
- Owner portal and app with income, expenses and every transaction as it posts, statements and documents.
- The invoice behind a charge on request, and a twelve-month operating statement (T12) whenever your lender or buyer asks.
- Bank reconciliation, bills awaiting approval, missing invoices and overdue payments checked every morning.
- Late rent flagged every morning; when a case goes to eviction we work with eviction counsel and follow it to the court date and the Sheriff's schedule.
- Insurance renewals and property tax payments tracked.
Who it's for
Built for the buildings most Chicagoans rent in.
Two-flats, three-flats, six-flats and courtyard buildings up to twelve units, and single-family homes - on the South Side, the West Side and in the suburbs. Market-rate and voucher tenants.
