Good afternoon — this is Cory with Clear Property Management, and today I’m at another beautiful home here in Maumelle, Arkansas that we’re currently preparing for an upcoming rental listing.
This property is in the heart of Maumelle, in a highly desirable area with easy access to the interstate, Conway, and Little Rock. I actually filmed a walkthrough of a home just caddy-corner to this one not long ago, so it’s funny how this one came full circle without me even knowing it was coming available.
Pre-Listing Preparation & Timeline
We are currently in the pre-listing phase for this home. A few items have already been completed, including:
- New blinds installed
- All systems tested and confirmed in working order
- Minor maintenance addressed
The only thing left is a handful of small paint touch-ups, which should be completed within the next week. Once the painter is finished, we’ll schedule professional photos immediately and plan to list the home the very next day.
We already pulled rental comps for this property, so pricing is dialed in and ready to go.
Interior Overview
As you step inside, the first thing you notice is the vaulted ceilings and open layout. The space feels bright, airy, and welcoming — exactly what renters in Maumelle are looking for.
The living and entertaining areas are spacious, clean, and well laid out. While the home is already clean enough to show, we always note in the listing that the property will receive a full professional cleaning right before move-in, so the new resident takes possession of a freshly cleaned home.
This approach allows us to list quickly while still delivering a move-in-ready experience.
Primary Bedroom & Flooring
The primary bedroom is generously sized and features carpet flooring. There is a small area where the carpet has a slight pull, which we’ve already discussed correcting. This can easily be handled during the deep carpet cleaning process, which we plan to do anyway prior to move-in.
Throughout the rest of the home, you’ll find luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring, with carpet only in the bedrooms — a great balance between durability and comfort.
Kitchen, Laundry & Garage
The kitchen offers:
- Plenty of cabinet space
- Granite countertops
- Clean, updated finishes
The washer and dryer are included, which is a major plus for renters. The laundry room also has countertop space for folding or storage.
The home features a two-car garage, providing ample space for parking and storage.
Secondary Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The additional bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the home, creating a nice separation from the primary suite. Each bedroom has:
- Good-sized closets
- Carpet flooring
- Modern finishes
One of the secondary closets includes built-in shelving, adding extra functionality.
The layout works well for families, roommates, or anyone needing flexible space for guests or a home office.
Backyard & Outdoor Space
The backyard is fully fenced and easy to maintain. While it’s not oversized, it offers:
- A private outdoor area
- Space for patio furniture or a grill
- Low maintenance compared to larger yards
For many renters, a manageable yard is actually preferred — less mowing, less upkeep, and more time to enjoy the home.
Why Homes Like This Make Great Rentals
Homes in this price range and neighborhood sometimes cause owners to hesitate about renting due to numbers. However, we regularly see situations where owners who purchased pre-COVID, during COVID, or refinanced at 2–3% interest rates are pleasantly surprised by how well rental numbers work out.
The goal isn’t to “hit a home run” every month — it’s to:
- Place a strong tenant
- Have the tenant pay down the mortgage
- Maintain the property
- Let appreciation do its job over the next 5–10 years
That strategy often results in a much stronger exit down the road than selling immediately.
