Advantages of a Network Granite Key Leasing & Management is like no other real estate experience
you’ve ever had. Think no boundaries. No competition. Imagine partnerships be-
tween owners, investors, property managers and realtors. Try to picture a seam-
less match made between families, professionals, students and the right home.
This is what we do: We build Wichita and the metro area with these partnerships,
and give our economy and community the juice it deserves. We honor people, our
housing laws, and our neighborhoods.
This is what we don’t do: We don ’t posture, puff ourselves up, ignore phone calls,
cover up property issues, lie, cheat or steal. We do not inflate fees and we do not
work with just anyone.
How does this program work? Every time you purchase or promote a property, ask yourself;
Q: Who is responsible for this investment?
A: The obvious answer is YOU, but many others directly affect it.
Q: What should I know about how you do business?
A: Everything. We work for you and we promote, problem-solve and perform.

Services and Satisfaction We work for you. The services we can provide for you are limitless, but the suc-
cess of our efforts is only measured by the amount of satisfaction you receive.
Here are just some of the things we offer:
Marketing: We use digital marketing, social media, video, photography,
staging, open houses, personal communication, instant messaging and
more. Networking with individuals, companies, churches and non-profits gets
your property in front of a customer. Yes. A renter is a customer. They are
shopping and you’ve got to deliver your best to get the returns you want.
Leasing: From pre-qualification measures, to renter requirement checklists,
we do a step-by-step leasing program which combines fishing with a wide net
of opportunities, from application to approval, with secure background checks,
income verification, leasing contracts, walk-throughs, tours, marketing and
more. We make friends along the way, to keep the prospects always open.
Property Management: We can ease the daily issues of managing your
property, through online rent payments, owner and tenant portals, mainte-
nance tracking and monthly reports and disbursement of your yields. We
have a network of licensed and bonded professionals in all areas of mainte-
nance, legal and landscaping. Keeping your property in top shape means
premium leasing rates, and higher yields.
We love what we do This is more than a business to us. It’s a lifestyle that changes every day. We
make new friends, and long-time partners. We get to learn from the best in the
industry, and from our mistakes. Who gets to walk through a gorgeous home one
minute, and be with our family whenever they need us the next? What’s cool is
that today we are strangers, but tomorrow, we may be planning a camping trip!
A Shift in The Market It is important for you to know,
renters have cash to spend.
There is a shift in the market,
where less singles, families and
professional are buying real es-
tate. They do not want to deal with
banks, maintenance issues and
upkeep. They want the perks of
owning, with the benefits and sim-
plicity of leasing.
Long-term job security is no longer
realistic. This means people are on
the move. As they enter our cities
and town, they want something
nice for their dollars.
Those moving into our area are
doing so with purpose. They chose
us. We want them to choose you.

A better way to build relationships and grow your portfolio
About Us
We chose the name
Granite Key, because it
stands for strength. It rep-
resents quality, class and
beauty while resisting the
elements.
Our goal is to provide a
better way to lease and
market properties.
We want to eliminate the
competitive and often
shady practices that
many have experienced
in the past.
We gather and use real
market data, and inter-
view potential tenants on
what they really want,
and are willing to pay for.
We help each owner and
investor to get the most
return on their property,
while giving their custom-
er s aka renters, an ex-
ceptional experience.
We found a way to work
with other companies,
managers, leasing agents
and owners, by doing all
the footwork.
Here’s the catch: our fees
are simple, and they are
tax-deductible for every-
one who files a Schedule
E or other investment
schedules which expense
professional fees. The
only way you can do this,
is to use us. Why not?

up a discussion about
how we turn your proper-
ty into a growth vehicle.
Where property and people meet
How the Process Works You may be brand new in the property investment business, or a seasoned veter-
an with more units than you can handle. Or maybe you have your own property
management business, but can’t seem to get the homes leased. Why aren’t tradi-
tional marketing like Craigslist or Zillow working? Why are there so many fickle
shoppers out there? It’s time for the fragmented real estate world to merge.
Let us share with you how and why our system works.
We meet with every owner, and learn about each property in their portfolio.
We assess it’s physical and fiscal condition, and attributes which create a valua-
tion of its worth in the current rental market.
We use real data, from academic to government sources, as well as our own
database packed with information regarding what people really want.
We market nationally. We use every possible outlet and we are active on
social media almost 24/7. We sleep sometimes, but it’s that personal touch, that
human interaction, which get results. We care about your bottom line, and your
renters.

We’re a Little Different Though We do a lot of things differently. For example, our address really isn’t our office.
We have a virtual office. We save a lot of time and money by being available to
you and to potential residents. We do, however, use every facility, conference
room, technology lab and professionals allotted to us by our alma-mater. WSU.
Did we say we use technology? A lot. We communicate. As a matter of fact, we
log our calls, emails, leads, financial data, management and maintenance activity
to analyze properties, market activity, outside stressors and potential growth.
The Money. What about the cost? Simple. Nothing to hide. We do it all, at no cost to the renter.
Leasing: For the property representative, we charge one half a month’s rent upon
lease signing*. That’s it.
Management: We charge from 8 to 10 percent of the total monthly lease rate.
Regardless of which service you use, we give you our all, and you get it back.**
