Your property is more than an address. It’s an investment in what comes next.

Owning rental property should create opportunity — not another full-time job.

At Akers & Associates Realty, we provide professional residential and commercial property management and leasing services throughout Southwest Virginia, helping property owners protect what they’ve built while creating a better experience for the people who call those properties home.

Whether you own one rental, manage a growing portfolio, or are considering your first investment property, we bring local knowledge, experienced guidance, and a steady hand to every door we manage.

Local roots. Professional management. Peace of mind.

Property Management, the Akers Way

Good property management happens quietly.

It’s the rent that arrives on time.
The maintenance call that gets handled.
The vacancy that doesn’t stay vacant for long.
The lease that protects everyone involved.
And the property owner who doesn’t have to spend every day wondering what needs attention next.

Our approach is built around proactive communication, responsible tenant placement, careful oversight, and respect — for the property, the owner, and the tenant.

Because managing property isn’t simply about collecting rent.

It’s about protecting the value of what you’ve worked to build.

Residential & Commercial Property Management

From single-family homes and rental properties to commercial spaces and growing investment portfolios, Akers & Associates Realty can assist with the details that come with being a landlord.

Our property management and leasing services may include:

Property Marketing & Leasing
Professional marketing of available properties, including MLS exposure and promotion through leading real estate and rental platforms.

Tenant Applications & Screening
Efficient digital applications and thorough screening according to our office tenant-selection policies and applicable fair-housing requirements.

Professional Lease Agreements
Strong lease agreements and forms designed to comply with applicable Virginia landlord-tenant requirements.

Rent Collection & Owner Payments
Convenient online payment options for tenants and prompt processing of rental proceeds for property owners.

Tenant Communication
Day-to-day tenant communication and assistance with lease compliance, so owners don't have to manage every question, request, or concern themselves.

Maintenance Coordination
Access to an established network of qualified maintenance and repair professionals when a property needs attention.

Financial Recordkeeping
Organized rental-account records and regular financial statements to help owners stay informed about their investment.

Experience You Can Trust

Our property management services are led by Elizabeth “Bee” Stuart, Founder and Associate Broker.

Bee has provided property management and leasing services in Southwest Virginia for more than eight years and is a Certified Property Manager through Virginia REALTORS®.

Her approach is the same one that has shaped her career in real estate: know your community, take care of people, pay attention to the details, and do things the right way.

That experience has helped build a property-management record that includes:

Zero tenant evictions
Zero court filings
Nearly 100% on-time rent collection
Consistently low vacancy rates

Those numbers matter.

But behind them is something we value even more — relationships handled well from the beginning.

The Roots • Founder • Associate Broker

For Bee, real estate has always been about more than property.

It’s about stewardship — taking care of the homes, land, businesses, investments, and relationships that make up a community.

With decades of real estate experience and more than eight years providing professional property management and leasing services, Bee brings the kind of local knowledge that can't be learned from a map.

She understands the responsibility that comes with trusting someone else to care for your investment — and she believes property owners and tenants alike deserve professionalism, responsiveness, fairness, and respect.

Already Own a Rental?

Maybe you love the investment — but not the late-night maintenance calls.

Maybe you've added a few properties and managing them yourself has become more time-consuming than you expected.

Or maybe you simply want to know that someone experienced is watching over the details.

We can help you explore whether professional property management makes sense for your property or portfolio.

Thinking About Investing?

You don't have to already be a landlord to start the conversation.

Southwest Virginia offers opportunities for buyers interested in residential rentals, commercial property, and long-term real estate investment.

Akers & Associates Realty can help you look beyond the listing itself and begin thinking about the possibilities — because sometimes the right property isn't simply the next place you call home.

It's the beginning of something you build.

Let Us Take Care of the Details.

You built the investment.

Let us help you protect it.
