A long-term rental should be a steady source of income, not a second job. We manage year-round rentals from Portland north to Waterville, handling the leasing, rent, and upkeep so you can own the property without running it.
Finding the right tenant
We market the unit, schedule showings, take applications, and screen applicants before anyone signs a lease. Our goal is a tenant who pays on time and takes care of the home. For what that process looks like from the renter's side, see our renter's guide.
Collecting rent and keeping records
Tenants pay rent online through our tenant and owner portal. You get clear monthly statements and a running record of rent, expenses, and maintenance activity.
Keeping the property cared for
Maintenance requests arrive with photos and a timestamp. We triage, send the right contractor, and follow up until the work is done. In Maine, the seasons matter: our seasonal maintenance checklist covers what to check before the first freeze and after the thaw.
Where we manage
We serve the whole corridor between Portland and Waterville. See our pages for Portland and Waterville, and our guide to what to look for in a property manager if you are still comparing options.
Common questions
What is long-term rental management?
It means we handle the work of renting out your property for the year: finding and screening tenants, collecting rent, coordinating maintenance, and reporting back to you.
Do you screen tenants?
Yes. We take applications and run background screening before a lease is signed.
How can I see what is happening with my property?
Owners get a login to our portal with rent, maintenance, and expense information, so you do not have to wait for a monthly email.
How do I get started?
Send us a message through the contact form, email inquiry@livewithloon.com, or call (207) 577-4852 and tell us about your property.
