Property management that actually knows your property.
Living Real is a boutique residential property management company serving owners across the Puget Sound region. We keep our portfolio small on purpose — so every home gets a manager who knows it by name, not a ticket number.
Full-service management, start to finish
From the day a home comes to us through every renewal after, we handle the work so ownership stays passive — and profitable.
Leasing & Tenant Placement
Pricing the home to the current market, professional listings, showings, and thorough applicant screening — so the right tenant moves in the first time.
Rent Collection
Online payments, automatic reminders, and disciplined follow-up on anything late. Owners get paid on schedule without chasing anyone.
Maintenance Coordination
Tenant requests triaged fast, trusted local vendors dispatched, and small problems fixed before they turn into the expensive kind.
Leases & Renewals
Washington-compliant leases, disclosures and notices prepared correctly, and renewals negotiated ahead of expiration — not after the home sits empty.
Owner Reporting
Clear statements, documented income and expenses, and records organized so tax season is a download rather than an archaeology project.
Move-In & Move-Out
Documented condition reports, deposit handling under Washington law, turnover coordination, and a clean handoff to the next tenant.
One manager. Every property.
Most owners have dealt with the other kind of company — where your home is one line in a spreadsheet, calls go to whoever is on shift, and nobody has actually stood in the property since the day it was leased.
Living Real is built the opposite way. Emily Cloward manages every home in the portfolio personally. She knows which units have the tricky furnace, which tenants pay early, and which roofs are due. When you call, you reach the person who already knows your property.
We deliberately keep the portfolio small. It means we can say yes to being genuinely responsive — and it is why our homes stay occupied.
"You should not have to wonder what is happening at your own property."

We also manage homes in Lynnwood, Lake Stevens, Snohomish and West Seattle. Specific addresses are kept private out of respect for the residents who live in them.
Let's talk about your property.
Whether you have one rental or several, Emily will walk your property, give you an honest read on what it should rent for, and tell you plainly whether we are the right fit. No pressure, no obligation.
