Tenant placement in the Florida Keys
Eaton Real Estate Company helps Florida Keys landlords market long-term residential rentals and place tenants without requiring an ongoing property-management contract.
Florida Keys rental listing and leasing help
Long-term rental housing in the Keys competes in a market heavily influenced by vacation rentals, seasonal occupancy and limited housing supply. Owners should make the intended lease term, utilities, furnishings and property restrictions especially clear in the listing.
$299 Rental MLS-Only is for owners who want the applicable MLS listing while running inquiries, showings, applications, screening, lease execution and move-in themselves. Tenant Placement is 50% of the first month’s rent and adds brokerage help through the agreed leasing process.

Long-term leasing in the Keys
Keys properties can involve condo or HOA rules, parking limitations, elevated construction, waterfront features or municipal restrictions that vary substantially by address. The listing should describe the actual property and lease terms accurately without relying on general assumptions about coastal housing.
For owners who intend to manage the tenancy themselves after placement, Eaton provides a focused leasing path rather than bundling in ongoing property management.
You keep the property after placement
After the agreed lease and move-in work is complete, ongoing rent collection, maintenance and tenant communication remain with the owner.
