Next, we will leverage various marketing channels, including online platforms like real estate websites, social media, and property listing portals, to reach a wide audience of potential renters. Additionally, traditional methods such as "For Rent" signs may be utilized to target local prospects. The leasing team responds promptly to inquiries and conducts property showings either in person or via our self-showing platform for interested parties.

Testimonials

“Dale and his team are absolutely amazing! My wife and I are new to investing in real estate and Dale took us under his wing to show us the ropes. We now own 3 rental properties in Lansing and they’re being managed by DS Huber Real Estate Group. Dale was patient, kind, informative and thorough leading us through the process. We are so grateful that we found Dale and his team and look forward to a long-standing relationship in real estate.”

DS Huber Real Estate Group Investor since 2018

“I live next door to a property managed by DS Huber. Last week a tree from that property fell onto my property. I have been stressing about what to do as technically it is now my responsibility. On Tuesday this week, a rep for DS Huber, Jeff, knocked on my door and was very apologetic and kind. He offered to begin cutting up the tree and haul it away! I was shocked at the professionalism and kindness of this property management company. They could have easily looked the other way and left it for me to deal with. Great company!”
