Property Management
As a property Owner, you have the choice of several management companies. Here is why you should choose Dune Allen Realty:
Marketing
We have begun expanding our normal marketing beyond our regional market in anticipation of the NEW International Airport coming to Panama City in 2009. We spare no expense in our advertising because we believe our best kept secret, the quiet beaches of Northwest Florida, should be shared with the entire US and beyond. Hence, our marketing team is expanding with representatives in Europe in order to meet the needs of Europeans who will take advantage of the new International Airport. As well, we are targeting the Chicago area for the first time since the new direct flight from Chicago's O'Hare to the Fort Walton Beach Airport began on September 5, 2007. Not only is our message spreading through periodicals and massive postcard mailings, but online as with the introduction to our new web site designed by CYber SYtes. Dune Allen Realty now owns the latest in software technology - Instant Software's V12 system. V12 allows our guests to cruise through our properties with ease. It allows Owners direct access to their unit, 24 hours a day, showing reservations, statements, everything that concerns their unit.

We recently began to aggressively market one of our domain names, BeautifulBeach.com. The results have been amazing. Both online and called in reservations have increased substantially. Not only do we have the fifty years of name recognition and the repeat business of Dune Allen Realty (78% of our guests have been repeat guests), we now have the additional BeautifulBeach.com. BeautifulBeach.com will become the evermore recognized symbol of Dune Allen Realty, thus increasing our exposure and your revenues.

Maintenance
Our in-house maintenance program saves you money. The biggest complaint from Owners is how much other management companies charge to simply change a light bulb or air conditioning filter, or for that matter a battery. At Dune Allen Realty, these charges are literally at cost. On small jobs, our maintenance crew will charge for material and their time at $30 per hour (real time on the job only). Maintenance is not a profit center, but a service that we provide to our Owners at the best price possible. On larger jobs, especially those requiring a license, we have access to a large number of vendors and will ALWAYS call the Owner before committing to a vendor. The only exception is obviously in the case of an emergency in which we will make the immediate judgment call.
Our Rental Pricing Policy
It's simple - Dune Allen Realty prices your unit to maximize your revenue.
Superior Housekeeping
As you know, all along the beach, most guest-related problems concern the cleanliness of the units. Dune Allen Realty makes double sure that your unit is not only clean, but ready with linens and ready on time to meet your guests. Our policy is ZERO tolerance for anything but a spotless unit. How do we accomplish this - we have selected the best cleaning teams on the beach and even then, have two full-time inspectors who make sure our standards are met. As well, our General Manager makes spot inspections so that she knows her "house" is in order. Our system works because we leave no gaps. Housekeeping is the Primary area of focus in the day-to-day operations of Dune Allen Realty.
Dune Allen Realty Guest Services
Dune Allen Realty proudly boasts the friendliest, most reliable staff at our front desk. That might explain our record of repeat business. Guaranteed to continue with Dune Allen Realty's new concierge service. We offer Guests to your properties an easier vacation by providing assistance in booking reservations for their vacation activities.
