Josh and Renting Ohio took over management of my 9 unit apartment complex in April. I was previously self-managing with my brother. Josh puts all his energy into management and it shows.
Renting Ohio provides many features that should cost a lot of money, like 24 hour phone answering service and internet payment option for the tenants, but he provides them with minimal overhead and he passes the savings on to the owner.
Josh takes a personal interest in managing the property properly. He does little things like landscape and pick up trash at the building when necessary.
Renting Ohio has its own maintenance people, but allows the owner to stay involved as desired.
The most important thing... occupancy: within two months, I went from 6/9 occupied to 8/9 occupied and we have turned away some prospective tenants in favor of waiting for higher quality tenants. I expect to be fully-occupied soon!

We are looking to purchase our first rental and reached out to Joshua to see if he can help us manage the property. He was very helpful in giving us his recommendations, shared the things he learned since he is an investor himself, and was very clear and straightforward on the services his propertymanagement company offers.

Consulted with Joshua on prospective property and he provided excellent feedback, demonstrating a very high degree of knowledge about the market. He was generous with his time and patient with all questions. In addition, he seems to have very clearly developed systems to address all propertymanagement needs. Will definitely hire if the purchase of the property works out!

I have had an outstanding experience working with Joshua in regards to my rental property. He is very experienced in his field, but also thinks outside the box, to create a solution so that everyone wins. Very professional and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Joshua for any rental property needs

It has been a pleasure thus far working thus far with Joshua Hess. He has been very professional in the set-up and execution of the propertymanagement. I am looking for an ongoing relationship with Renting Ohio and expect to do further business with his company.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Fortunately our pricing plan is simple!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I finish a book every 7-10 days and usually rotate these four categories. Real Estate, Business Development, Self Development, and Science Fiction. Aside from that I'm tapped into several landlord associations, take continuing education classes at Hondros College, and far surpass the minimum Realtor requirements.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I love to travel and I am an entrepreneur. After several successful small businesses (vending routes, a bar, a cleaning company, and more) I settled into real estate. It provides duplication of time, protection of capital, and consistent growing income. There are many other benefits, but both owning real estate and managing other's portfolio are highly satisfying and provide the type of lifestyle I desire for my family.
