Military & landlords
PCS Property Management near JBER
Orders in hand? Decide whether to sell or keep your Anchorage home as a rental — then let AREA run the management while you focus on the move.

Before you PCS checklist
- Decide sell vs rent with equity, housing market, and next-tour costs in mind (not financial advice — bring your numbers)
- Schedule make-ready work early: paint, carpets, furnace service, exterior repairs
- Gather appliance manuals, spare keys, HOA docs, and utility account info
- Confirm whether you want a long-term lease timed to typical inbound PCS seasons
- Introduce AREA as your manager so tenants know who to call on day one
