REALTORS®

Refer your landlord clients to a partner who won't poach them.

We don't list homes for sale. When your client is ready to sell, we send them back to you — every time. In the meantime, we keep their investment performing and you stay the relationship owner. Plus, we pay competitive referral fees on every new account.

What clients say

Owners and agents trust Solaris.

Stephanie and her team made the process really simple and stress-free. I couldn't be happier with the rental process and ongoing property management.

CourtneyProperty Owner

I recommend Stephanie to all my clients seeking property management. Her experience makes her calm, cool, and collected, and her vendor contacts are top-notch.

PeteREALTOR®

They clearly care about both the owners and the tenants and make sure both parties are happy. Very responsive and proactive — I'd absolutely recommend them.

Common questions

The quick answers.

Most owners ask the same handful of questions before they hand over the keys. Here are the ones that come up most often.

All FAQs →
How much do you charge?

Pricing depends on the service tier (Tenant Placement vs Full-Service) and the property. We'll give you a transparent quote alongside a free rental analysis — no obligation.

How fast can you place a tenant?

For market-ready homes in our service area, most placements happen within 2–4 weeks. We use professional photography, listing syndication, and TenantTurner to maximize exposure.

Do you manage short-term/vacation rentals?

Yes — we now offer dedicated vacation rental management for coastal Santa Cruz County properties. See the program →

Can my real estate agent refer me?

Absolutely. We pay referral fees and never list homes for sale, so the client relationship stays with the agent. Details →
