We are always looking for ways to save money by utilizing the strengths of our industry reputation along with our owners' combined purchasing power.
Here are some examples of small savings that add up for our owners over time:
Advertising
Suppliers
Maintenance Contractors
Personal Use
Advertising
Newspaper classified and online ads are effective marketing tools to reach mainstream audiences. Our sheer volume of business allows us to negotiate bulk contract rates with the Union Tribune and local neighborhood papers. We maximize working relationships with internet advertisers as well. FBS owners save advertising dollars and enjoy the increased exposure our company ads receive. Group discounts on advertising are shared with owners. The primary benefit is shorter vacancy and additional applicants to screen for the most qualified potential resident.

Suppliers
Shared volume discounts from suppliers of appliances, carpet, floor coverings, window coverings, etc. provide additional savings for FBS owners while maintaining strong resident relations and improved property value.

Maintenance Contractors
Often cost savings from our independent contractors for painting, plumbing, repair work help minimize the cost of rent-readys and service requests. In some cases, the savings is in the timeliness of service or a reduction of lost rent. In other cases, the quality of work or responsiveness to your residents is the difference between resident satisfaction and tenant liability.

Personal Use
FBS owners may have the luxury of utilizing company resources, including maintenance, at their personal residence for further savings. Maintaining and improving your property is important to your overall wealth-building strategy.
