There is a very specific method to the madness that can exist when managing properties. To outlast and continue being successful requires that our owners are 100% satisfied.

We have dominate the equation of out how to protect owners while simultaneously keeping tenants quite satisfied in properties that are well maintained. Overseas Realty and Property management is not a chain or a large scale company where you are just an address. Here people still matter! Even though it would be easier for us to only use computers and answering services to tend to our clients we are old school here. We enjoy speaking to our clients and making sure their questions can be answered by us in a timely matter. By answering as many calls as we can personally we save time and avoid confusion.

Overseas team members are dedicated to keeping informed, understand the needs of owners, residents, and condo/ home owners associations. Our team consists of professionals who are all actually owners themselves and know what it means to take care of personal or investment homes and tenant issues. This cuts down on the need for service calls as many times our agents can talk the tenants through many minor issues. Most team members were born and raised in the area or have lived here for years and have the knowledge and vision to help you make smart investment choices and guide you in ideal rental market rates.
Building Long Lasting Relationships
The only way to build the kinds of relationships we have been able to create over the years should not be a secret it is TRUST. Our business is based on YOU the owner. Overseas success is completely dependent on your success overall. We are not the company who will still charge you if your property is vacant or try and include hidden fees. Honesty is a cornerstone in our business and we believe in transparency. We appreciate the risk investors take in purchasing any property and help to alleviate any issues or concerns which could arise in this experience so you may be at ease while we work hard to nurture and care for your investment. We are in it for the long haul with you, your boat is our boat, and your home is our home to take care of. Often Overseas agents ask "what would I really do if this were my personal home or if this was my renter to be sure they are making solid choices. Additionally, they respect the legality of all situations to avoid any legal backlash for owners. At Overseas we understand you have a choice and there are many options available in the market; however, at the same time we hope you evaluate each of the possibilities, and actually compare apples to apples.

Also, in the following years, he has continued to deepen his knowledge of the economic relationships within the international Real Estate market. It took several years to earn confidence from his clients. Today many of our clients buy again (one already has 11 investment-homes), or recommend us to others. The Overseas Group received a great boost when Fritz Mayr's son, Chris Mayr, entered the Real Estate business in 1998.
