Rental Property Owners Association

Whether you own one rental property or hundreds or a business with a reputable product or service that would benefit rental property owners, you owe it to yourself to join the Rental Property Owners Association of Kent County ( RPOA ). In 1968, a group of property managers organized to address the needs of rental property owners in West Michigan. RPOA was formed to provide a united voice to legislators, city councils, building inspectors, zoning officials, social service departments, judges and other individuals and groups that have a direct bearing on the business of renting property. RPOA presently has over 1, 600 members and continues to address the needs of its members through various programs, services and benefits. Promote a local and statewide business climate that is conducive to sustaining profitability and the effective management of real estate investments ; Our full-time office staff is available Monday through Thursday from 9: 00 a.m. to 5: 30 p.m. and Friday from 9: 00 a.m. to 5: 00 p.m. to assist you with questions regarding the rental business. In instances where you require legal advice, we have an attorney on call to answer your legal questions. Your questions will be answered over the phone free of charge. Discounts are also available. For a small fee, the RPOA can run decision reports on prospective tenants. Decision reports are based upon underlying credit and/or criminal reports but report only whether or not a prospective tenant has passed a screening of loose, moderate or strict risk. These reports can be obtained through the RPOA office and are usually available within three hours from time of request.
