Welcome to Alves and Howell Lease Management
In Longwood, Alves & Howell has built its reputation on results. We take the same disciplined approach to every property we represent — grounded in market knowledge, sharp negotiation, and a genuine investment in the outcome.
We've noticed something in years of doing this work: the best outcomes come from treating a property not just as a transaction, but as a decision that deserves real attention at every stage. So that's how we approach it — thoughtfully, and always on our clients' terms.
At Alves & Howell, the details are where excellence lives. And trust isn't assumed — it's built, relationship by relationship, with everyone who chooses to work with us.

Everything you need for hands-off ownership.
Drafting and terms
A lease is only as strong as the language behind it. We work with HWW (evict.com), a leading lease-management law group, to write lease terms that are clear, enforceable, and compliant with current local law, so there's no ambiguity about what either side owes the other, from day one through the final day of the term.
Rent collection
You shouldn't have to think about whether rent came in. We track every due date, payment, and late fee against exactly what the lease says, so income arrives reliably and on schedule, without a follow-up call from you.
Renewals
Missed renewal windows are one of the most common lease failures. We flag upcoming expirations early enough to negotiate a renewal or plan a move-out, so a decision is never made at the last minute.
Compliance
Notices, disclosures, and procedures change as regulations do. We keep every lease and every action taken under it aligned with current requirements, so you're never exposed by a step that fell out of date.
Move-out and turnover
Every lease ends the same way it started: with documentation. We handle move-out inspections, deposit reconciliation, and turnover prep so the unit is ready for what's next, and the record is clear if anything is disputed.

Why Hire Us VS. Self-Managing
- Stronger returns, less of your time on the line. The idea that professional management is just another expense overlooks what it actually delivers. When a property is managed properly, it attracts tenants who pay reliably, stay longer, and take genuine care of the space — which means fewer repairs, less turnover, and a healthier return over the life of your investment. You get the financial upside of ownership without absorbing the operational weight of running it yourself.
- Stop carrying the full weight of the operation. Self-managing a rental doesn't stay contained to a few hours a week — it bleeds into evenings, weekends, and mental bandwidth you didn't plan on spending. Repairs, tenant complaints, late rent, vendor scheduling — these aren't occasional tasks, they're an ongoing job. When Alves and Howell take on that responsibility, your income keeps arriving, but the burden no longer sits on your shoulders.
- Sharper screening process, stronger tenant outcomes. Our screening goes well beyond a basic background check. With access to advanced applicant tools and a well-established network built over years in this market, we're able to evaluate prospective tenants with real depth — not just surface-level approval. Because of the reputation we've built, we're often working from a waiting list of pre-qualified renters, which means less time vacant and more confidence in who moves in.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
State and local laws vary significantly on this. In some jurisdictions, source of income is a protected class, which means declining a qualified applicant based solely on housing voucher status may expose you to liability. We recommend reviewing the specific regulations in your area before making that determination, and we are happy to guide you through what applies to your market.
-
Yes. Alves and Howell Lease & Management operates as a fully licensed real estate brokerage, held to the professional and legal standards that designation requires. Licensing is not a checkbox for us — it is the foundation of the trust and credibility we bring to every client relationship.
-
For urgent property matters, yes. We maintain an emergency contact line for situations that cannot wait. Routine inquiries and general communication are handled during normal business hours, where we can give your questions the full attention they deserve.
