Owning rental property in Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. can be a strong long-term investment — especially in a region supported by government agencies, Foreign Service Officers, military families, and a steady professional workforce.

However, successful rental ownership requires more than collecting rent.

Professional property management in Northern Virginia ensures your investment is protected, your tenants are properly screened, and your property operates with efficiency, compliance, and transparency.

With over 38 years of experience, PROMAX Property Management has built its reputation on honesty, integrity, and hands-on service — serving residential landlords throughout Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C.




The Northern Virginia & D.C. Rental Market Requires Local Expertise

From Alexandria and Arlington to Fairfax, McLean, Springfield, and Washington, D.C., the rental market is competitive and fast-moving.

Proper property management requires:

  • Accurate rental pricing based on local market trends

  • Marketing your home on multiple websites

  • Professional tenant sourcing and screening

  • Routine property inspections

  • 24/7 emergency response

PROMAX proudly keeps all services handled in-house — with local property managers, licensed agents, and support staff based right here in the DC Metro area.

This ensures your property is managed by professionals who understand the local community and market conditions.



Tenant Screening That Protects Your Investment

For landlords and investors, tenant quality directly impacts long-term returns.

PROMAX provides:

  • Credit, income, employment, and landlord verification

  • Owner approval of tenants and lease terms

  • Pre-move-in inspection and tenant orientation

  • After-hours and emergency tenant support

This structured screening process helps reduce late payments, minimize disputes, and protect your property from unnecessary risk.



Transparent Vendor Pricing — No Hidden Fees

Many property management companies mark up vendor invoices or charge hidden fees.

At PROMAX, transparency is a core value:

  • No vendor referral incentives

  • No invoice markups

  • No hidden tenant package fees

  • Clear and straightforward pricing

All maintenance and repair coordination is handled with licensed and insured professional contractors — and owners see exactly what they are paying.



In-House Safety Inspections & Routine Property Care

Your property’s safety and long-term value are a top priority.

PROMAX conducts annual in-house safety inspections — not outsourced to third-party contractors. Combined with routine property inspections and preventative maintenance coordination, this ensures consistent standards and careful attention to detail.

This hands-on approach protects both landlords and tenants.



Financial Reporting & Owner Transparency

For investors, rental property should function as a structured income asset.

PROMAX provides:

  • Accounting, AP/AR management, and monthly owner distributions

  • Detailed monthly and annual financial statements

  • IRS Form 1099 preparation

  • Cloud-based digital records

With clear reporting and transparent communication, landlords maintain full visibility into their property’s financial performance.



Supporting Military, Foreign Service, and Local Investors

Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. serve a unique population of property owners — including Foreign Service Officers, military personnel, and government employees.

PROMAX has over 30 years of experience supporting Foreign Service and State Department families, providing reliable property oversight while owners are overseas or relocated.

This level of experience provides peace of mind for landlords who need dependable, professional representation.



Why Property Management in Northern Virginia Pays Off

Professional property management in Northern Virginia can help landlords:

  • Reduce vacancy time

  • Protect against legal and compliance risks

  • Improve tenant retention

  • Maintain property value

When managed correctly, professional property management does more than handle operations — it strengthens long-term return on investment.
