Relocating for a new job can be an exciting step in your career—but it also means plenty of big decisions, especially when it comes to your current home. Should you sell it, or rent it out? If you decide to become a landlord from afar, who is going to take care of your property and tenants? That’s where ARC Property Management steps in as your hands-off, hassle-free solution. Here’s how we make the process smooth for relocating homeowners like you.
Why Renting Out Your Home When You Relocate Makes Sense
If you’re moving for work—across the state or across the country—selling your home isn’t your only (or always your best) option. Renting it out comes with smart advantages:
You build equity while someone else pays the mortgage.
The rental income helps cover property costs.
You maintain ownership, so you can return to your home or sell when the market is right.
But, managing a rental property from hundreds or even thousands of miles away is a lot to take on. Dealing with showings, tenant screening, maintenance requests, emergencies, and late-night calls? That’s a full-time job—just as your new job is about to take off.
That’s exactly why smart investors and relocating homeowners team up with ARC Property Management.
End-to-End Leasing and Tenant Placement
Trying to advertise your home, coordinate showings, and screen applications from afar? It's tough, even in a hot rental market. Our team takes over the leasing process—from professional marketing and top-notch property photos to scheduled in-person showings, application screening, and background checks.
We carefully screen applicants, verify income and rental history, and make sure your future tenants are reliable and responsible. By taking the guesswork out of tenant selection, we reduce your risk of late payments or difficult situations. Our leasing team drafts solid leases, collects deposits, and ensures all paperwork is signed, sealed, and compliant with New Jersey law.

Secure, Hassle-Free Rent Collection
Worried about rent arriving on time when you’re living in a different state? ARC Property Management provides a secure and fully digital rent collection system. With our online portal, tenants can pay rent easily, and you can track payments from anywhere around the globe—whether you’re in Hoboken or Honolulu.
Our automated reminders and payment tracking mean fewer late payments and zero headaches for you. Our accounting system is also set up for transparency, so you can access real-time financial reports and annual tax documentation whenever you need them.
24/7 Maintenance and Emergency Response
The middle of the night, a pipe bursts—or the AC stops working in the middle of a heatwave. When you’re miles away, who do your tenants call? With ARC Property Management’s 24/7 emergency maintenance, your tenants always have a lifeline—and you have priceless peace of mind.
We respond to maintenance requests quickly through our online portal, coordinate with vetted local contractors, and conduct regular property check-ups. Our goal: protect your investment and keep tenants happy (so they renew their leases). We also handle property inspections, both inside and out, ensuring your place stays in great condition, even if you’re never there to see it in person.
Regular Inspections and Proactive Care
When you aren’t able to drop by and check on your home, you need someone who will treat it like their own. That’s why our team schedules regular inspections throughout each lease term—catching small problems before they become expensive disasters.
We’ll monitor for lease violations, coordinate cleaning and repairs between tenants, and stay one step ahead on preventative maintenance. This means less wear and tear, fewer surprises, and a consistently well-cared-for property.

Transparent Communication & Online Owner Portal
Moving for work can be overwhelming. You shouldn’t have to chase down updates on your rental. With ARC’s property owner portal, your financials, maintenance requests, inspection results, and all communication are delivered to you in real-time, wherever you are. Our team keeps you in the loop but offloads the details—so you get the big picture, not the headaches.
Questions, concerns, or new requests? You’ll always have a dedicated property manager just an email, text, or phone call away. No wading through call centers or wondering who to contact.
We Know the Local Market—So You Don’t Have to
Managing a rental property isn’t just about collecting rent checks. Setting the right rent price, keeping up with local landlord-tenant laws, and marketing to NJ’s diverse communities all require local expertise. ARC Property Management knows Hudson and Bergen County down to the block.
We’ll make sure your property stays rented at market value, remains code-compliant, and benefits from our established vendor relationships. For remote landlords, this local advantage is the difference between profitable passive income and months of costly vacancy.
Serving Absentee Owners, Out-of-State, and Relocating Professionals
