Step 3

What Bill does in person

Owners · your property walkthrough

Bill will visit your property, confirm a realistic rent range, and give you a short list of make-ready repairs that help it rent faster and for more — then manage it for $99/mo per occupied unit.

Request a walkthrough

Buyers · your tour & offer

Bill can tour the home with you, estimate its rent range, point out make-ready repairs before you buy, and — as a licensed Ohio Realtor — write and submit your offer.

Request a tour

$0 monthly management fee while vacant. Tenant placement: one month's rent capped at $1,500. Repairs and other applicable charges are separate.

Common questions

Is it free?

Yes. The rental analysis and printable report are free, subject to daily lookup limits. Management, tenant placement, repairs and other services are separate.

Do I need an account?

No. Run an estimate without an account. Saved links can be revisited or shared for 180 days; no visitor contact information is stored in the report.

How accurate is it?

The automated range and comparable asking rents are a starting point, not a guarantee or appraisal. Report confidence measures comparable coverage and rent spread. Bill's visit adds condition, unit configuration and local leasing context.

Can Bill help if I already have an agent?

Yes. Bill can give a rent and make-ready opinion without interfering with your agent or your existing representation.

What does management cost?

$99 per occupied unit per month, with no monthly management fee while vacant. Tenant placement is one month's rent, capped at $1,500. Maintenance, repairs and other applicable charges are separate.

Beyond the numbers

Buying, holding or selling a rental

Purchase price is only part of the decision. Review repairs, financing, taxes, insurance, vacancy and lease-up before closing. WhiteStone supports first-time buyers, local investors and out-of-area owners of single-family and small multifamily properties in Lorain and Cuyahoga Counties. Revisit hold or sell choices as the property and your goals change; consult your own tax, legal, insurance and financial advisors.

The rental operation after closing

Leasing preparation, marketing, showings, applicant screening, resident communication, maintenance coordination and inspection documentation connect the purchase to the operation. AppFolio supports owner and resident portals, rent collection and reporting. ShowMojo supports showing coordination; zInspector supports photo-based inspection records. Scope is confirmed for each property.

Agent partnerships and local observations

Agents keep the client relationship while WhiteStone helps with rental operations and management. Rental spotlights and field notes focus on actual property features, leasing and turnover observations — not promised returns. WhiteStone never guarantees rent, occupancy, appreciation or investment performance.
