Can’t Sell Your Property?
Why Leasing-Only Services Might Be the Smart Move in Philadelphia
If you’ve been trying to sell your Philadelphia property with little success, you’re not alone. The market is not always favorable to sellers, and holding on to a vacant home can become a financial responsibility. The good news is— there is an alternative option.
At PhillyLiving Management Group, we help property owners like you turn that unsold listing into a rental income-producing asset, without requiring a full-service management agreement. Our leasing-only service is the perfect solution for landlords who want to self-manage their investment but need help finding and placing a qualified tenant.
The Additional Costs of a Vacant Home in Today’s Market
Every month your property sits vacant, you’re losing money, and not just potential rent. There are additional carrying costs such as:
- Property taxes and insurance
- Utility bills and lawn care
- Ongoing maintenance and deterioration
Rather than watching your property sit idle, you can generate income through a smart leasing strategy.
What Is a Leasing-Only Service?
A Flexible Solution for Hands-On Landlords
Not every landlord wants a full-service property management company. Many owners prefer to manage day-to-day operations themselves but struggle with marketing, showings, and tenant screening. That’s where leasing-only services come in.
At PhillyLiving Management Group, we handle the upfront work, so you don’t have to.
We Handle the Heavy Lifting Upfront
Marketing your home across all the top rental platforms. When you list your property with us, we’ll advertise it on the MLS, Zillow, our website, social media, and other search websites.
- Hosting showings with prospective tenants
- Screening applicants using rigorous background checks
- Preparing and executing lease agreements and providing compliance documents required by the City of Philadelphia
Once the lease is signed, you step in as the landlord, with the peace of mind that you’ve got a qualified, vetted tenant.

Keep Control, Without the Chaos
Leasing-only services let you stay in the driver’s seat. You’ll be the point of contact for your tenants after move-in, while we ensure that you’re set up with a lease, legal compliance, and someone you can trust in your unit.
When Selling Doesn’t Work, Leasing Is a Strategic Pivot
Still want to sell? Leasing your property can be an effective, temporary solution while the market stabilizes. With a qualified tenant and favorable lease terms, you’ll earn income, keep your property maintained, and have the ability to re-list it for sale later from a position of strength.
When revisiting options at the end of a lease term, be sure to consult with your real estate agent at PhillyLiving Management Group.
