In this section you will find several areas of information.
The first, entitled HOW WE RENT IT, tells you how to find out what rentals we have available and explains our policies on "getting a location address," "viewing a property" and "making an application" right on through to "signing a contract".
The second, entitled WHO WE
ARE, WHAT
WE DO, presents a short introduction
of the principals who run Jacobson Management, the services the
company makes available to prospective renters in San Luis Obispo
county, and the market principles and policies by which Jacobson
Management Services conducts its business.
The third, entitled FOR
RENT NOW, is an expanded listing and
description of each of the properties which Jacobson management
offers for rent as of this date, and for which the company is
presently soliciting and accepting applications.
The fourth , entitled COMING
UP! is a list of properties which are managed by
Jacobson Management Services, and which we expect to be available for
rent in the near future, but which are not presently available for
showing.
(Section: The First)
What follows here is: "Anne's really good
rules of the road for renting an apartment or house through Jacobson
Management Services!!!
When a property we manage becomes vacant, we make sure
everything is in good condition and the property is ready to show.
Ascertaining from a search of the market the terms and conditions
under which like properties are being offered on the "for
rent" market, we determine the conditions under which the"
willing "seller" (in this case, the owner) will contract with a
"willing buyer" (in this case, the prospective tenant ) to rent the
property. We advertise the availability of the rental, and if you
respond to our ad, you call us at 805.528.6233 for
basic conditions under which the property is being offered for rent.
This phone number has taped information about our presently available
properties. Please be aware, however, that, 805.528.6233 DOES
NOT TAKE MESSAGES. If you wish to fax us an application, fax it to
805-528-6848.
If you are given the address of an advertised property, we ask that
you give it a drive by, but more importantly, we ask that you
not walk or drive on the property, and that you not disturb any
tenant or neighbor. Essentially, we have very nice tenants.
We appreciate them and are very protective of their privacy. UNDER NO
CONDITIONS, would it be a good idea to inform me, as one
(unsuccessful) prospective tenant once did, "well, I just happened to
knock on the door of the neighboring apartment, and when I did, this
old geezer showed up."
After driving by the advertised property, if you are further
interested, please call us at our appointment
number, 805.528.5908, between 9:00 in the morning
and 7:00 in the evening to speak with one of us, so
that we might make an appointment with you to show you the property
and to outline the conditions of tenancy. (We do all our interviews
face to face.) If we are not available when you call, you will be
able to leave a message at this number. At another part of this site
you will find our application form which
you can print directly from our screen or we can fax it to you. You
can hand us a completed application at the time of the showing of the
property, or you can e-mail, fax or mail it to us. Essentially, we
let you set the pace in these negotiations. (We do not charge you for
processing your application, but we do ask that you
NOT submit an application for our consideration
unless you are serious about renting a specific property which we are
offering. ) Upon receipt of your completed application(s), (by
definition, each person who is applying submits his or her own signed
application) we will call you to confirm that the property is still
available and you can confirm that you are still interested. After
talking personally with you and ascertaining that you are serious, we
will:
1) process your application --usually within 24 to 48 hours
2) call you when we have finished, and (if everything checks out)
3) make an appointment for us all to meet at the property, usually within the day.
At that second meeting we will execute the contract on the terms we have mutually agreed upon. The first month's rent and the deposit will be due upon the signing of the rental contract; the first monies we collect from you must be in cash, cashier's check or money order (made out to: Anne R. Abler). Now that you have the principles and procedures down, you may want to check out our next section: Who we are and what we do!
WHO WE ARE:
Allow me to introduce myself to you. My name is Anne R.
Abler, and my husband is J. Richard Woodworth. Unlike
Hildegarde who is a Cyberspace Construct (supra),
we are real, live people.
Each of us is a Real Estate Broker (Agent) licensed by the State to
practice and provide real estate services to clients in California.
We are NOT "Realtors." We have been in business here in Los
Osos since 1976. In addition to our building and maintenance
corporation, Woodworth Home Builders The Corporation, (Contractors
License number: 380906), we own and operate Jacobson
Management Services, to provide management services to owners of
real property for whom we have chosen to work. We also provide real
estate investment counseling, obtain mortgages, and provide other
financial services for our clients and prospective BUYERS and
BORROWERS through our company, Blackwell Financial
Services. California Dept. of Real Estate License #00814605
Basically, Jacobson Management Services contracts with property owners to represent them in the renting, managing, and maintenance of their properties in SLO county. An owner (if he is acting on his own behalf, he is often called a Principal) in a financial transaction will often employ "agents" to perform services in the course of his or her ownership of real or personal property. In these rental transactions, we act as agents of the owner, and as such, have a fiduciary obligation in our dealings with the owner to exercise the utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty, concerning her interests. Because we work for only one side of the transaction,this is called "SINGLE AGENCY." In addition, in our dealings with the general public who might become renters of the properties, we have a duty to them of honest and fair dealing in good faith, and we take these obligations, both to those owners (principals)whom we represent and to the general public (with whom we enter into negotiations on behalf of the principals we represent), very seriously. Some agents or principals will often convey a sense to a potential customer that they are acting on behalf of "both sides" of a transaction, perhaps even to the detriment of the principal whom they represent, in order to "close the deal and get their commission." This is often called by the "agent" in the marketplace, whether he be selling cars, houses, or time shares, "dual agency." We call it "double dealing," for that is what it is. Since we act exclusively as SINGLE AGENTS, this means that our fiduciary can be only to one side of a real estate transaction.
Just as you are engaged in the process of finding the "right house
or apartment", we are bent on finding the "right tenant" for the
owners for whom we act as agents. Essentially, Jacobson Management
collects rents and deposits from a tenant which are then paid to the
owner for the use of her real property. Fees for our performing real
estate services are paid to us by the person for whom we are acting
as an agent, whether that is a buyer, a borrower, or an owner of real
property. In our years of experience of dealing with the general
public we have found that most people we deal with, whether customers
or clients, are "straight as a string," and, although all our
contracts are ultimately written ones, in our negotiations, our
word is our bond. If, in reading this far, you think that
you, as a prospective tenant, might want to do business with
us as we represent owners of places for rent in San Luis Obispo
County, we invite you to read the section:
