We are investors just like you! We have been investing in real estate since 2001 and understand what it is like to have "skin in the game".
We are a professional management company.
Unlike many property managers, we are not agents first and property managers second. Our company's focus is managing investment properties.
We Are an Award Winning Company
Empire was a top finalist for a National Business Excellence Award in not just ONE, but THREE categories, Most Innovative, Customer Service and Marketing. Over 400 businesses from all over the country participated. Empire has won achievement awards from Century 21 and local business awards from the ActionCOACH business program.
Empire has been recognized by the Better Business Bureau as a “Business of Distinction” in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018.

We offer a 3 Point Promise
Unlike other companies, we put our money where our mouth is.
Our 3 Point Promise
20 Point Screening Process
We take pride in our average 1% eviction rate. We use a comprehensive 20 point tenant screening process to ensure you are getting a quality tenant in your rental home. Find out how Empire Industries protects you from fair housing claims in Texas.
Get a Quality Tenant Faster
Offering the self-showing option has cut down on our days on market. So far we’ve decreased our days on market by about 15 days. Utilizing multiple platforms to get your property the most exposure possible helps get a quality tenant in your home quickly.
Save Money With Our Volume Based Discounts
We have been extremely diligent in our negotiations with our vendors to receive discounts from them, which we pass on to our clients. These are the same vendors we use for our own personal investments. Our clients on average save 40% on their maintenance costs.
Get Paid EARLY!
We are investors like you, so we understand how important it is to receive your rent payment. Most management companies will send out payments on the 10th or 15th of the month, Empire pays out our owners on the 5th. Empire will send multiple payments throughout the month ending on the 25th of the month. Other management companies think we are crazy. We tell them we are not crazy, we are just investors ourselves.
No Setup Fees! No Upcharge on Maintenance!
Some of our competitors might be cheaper with the management fee, but watch out for the huge upcharges on their maintenance. At Empire we do not upcharge on any of our maintenance and every invoice is uploaded to your portal. Our repair request system is efficient, and our tickets are resolved faster.
No Hidden Fees!
All fees are disclosed on the management agreement.
Our Technology!
Our owner portal allows you to see all documents, all maintenance requests, all reporting and allows real time conversations with our staff.
Be Informed!
No longer email your property manager and never hear a response. At Empire our goal is to respond to all queries within one business day. We typically respond within the same day.
Get Pictures and Videos of Your Property
Have you ever had to approve a make ready bid without seeing a video? Have you ever waited weeks to get move out photos? Empire provides move-in / move-out, listing and make ready photos and videos within 3 business days.
Required Inspections
Empire used to only perform inspections on month 9 of the lease. However, due to demand from our clients we have implemented an inspection on month 3 of the lease. Learn more about why inspections are a good idea.
We Know Our Numbers
Does your property manager know the average days on market for their vacancies? What about average cost of a make ready, vacancy rate, and collection rate. At Empire we believe in numbers and we disclose those to our clients.
Empire by the Numbers
