Mildew-streaked siding and stained driveways make listings look tired and slow down showings.
Pressure washing play · Landlord marketing
Pressure washing for landlords who want rentals clean between tenants.
Curb appeal fills vacancies faster, and a clean exterior helps listings photograph well. Spur finds absentee owners with older rentals, writes a direct card about turnover washes, and mails it to the owner's real address.

The problem
Rental exteriors are neglected until a listing photo shows them.
Tenants don't clean what they don't own, and owners don't see the property until turnover.
Absentee owners live elsewhere. Mailing the rental reaches the tenant, not the decision maker.

AI draft for Gerard P. · PO Box 11940, Cary
Hi Gerard,
A clean exterior rents faster. Mildew, algae, and stained concrete make a listing look tired before anyone walks inside.
We wash rental exteriors across Raleigh between tenants, usually within a week. You get before-and-after photos, a fixed price per property, and one invoice for the whole portfolio.

What landlords need from a washing company
A landlord wants the exterior of a rental to look cared for without managing the work. That means a contractor who responds fast, quotes a fixed price per property, photographs the result, and sends one invoice. Landlords who find one tend to stay for years across every property.
Vacancy is the first argument. A week of vacancy costs roughly a quarter of a month's rent, and curb appeal affects how fast a listing gets showings and how it photographs. A turnover wash is cheap compared to the rent it can save, and a card that says so plainly is easy to take seriously.
Portfolio plans are the prize. An owner with six rentals needs a turnover wash at each vacancy and an annual refresh in between. A standing agreement with fixed per-property pricing, priority scheduling, and one invoice turns one-off jobs into recurring revenue.
Reach the owner, not the tenant. Absentee owners are best reached at their mailing address through skip tracing. Spur routes cards to the owner's real address and separates LLCs and managers into their own lists with their own messages.
Keep communication light. Landlords don't want to coordinate with tenants. Offer to schedule with the property manager or the incoming tenant, send photos when the job is done, and report any damage you notice, such as rot or failing caulk.

FAQ
Landlord pressure washing questions
How do I market pressure washing to landlords?
Reach absentee owners with multiple rentals through skip-traced mailing addresses, and lead with vacancy savings, photos, and one invoice.
Should I mail the property manager or the owner?
Both. Spur flags management companies and owners separately, and you can send each a different card.
What should the offer be?
Turnover washes at a fixed price per property, an annual refresh, and priority scheduling for vacancies.
Can I schedule directly with tenants?
Yes, if the owner agrees. Offer it on the card, because many landlords want zero coordination.
