RENTAL PORTFOLIO & RENOVATIONS

We own the homes we rent.
And we renovate the ones you own.

Starfighter Real Estate buys houses, renovates them, and rents them directly to the people who live in them. No brokerage in the middle, no management company to ask permission, no outside investors to answer to. And because we keep licensed trades working on our own properties year-round, that same crew is available to other owners who need a house turned around and back on the rent roll.

Our Properties

Homes we own and operate

Every property listed here is owned outright by Starfighter Real Estate. When you rent from us, you're dealing with the owner — the person who can actually approve the repair, the lease change, or the early move-in.

Renting With Us

What it's like to rent from the owner

Most rental frustration comes from the gap between the person you call and the person who can say yes. We removed the gap.

One decision-maker

You talk to the owner. Nobody has to check with a client before answering you.

Our own crew on repairs

The trades who renovated the house are the ones who come back to fix it. They already know the systems.

Renovated before you move in

We don't rent a house we wouldn't live in. The work happens before the listing, not after a complaint.

Everything in writing

Clear lease terms, documented requests, and a record of what was asked and when it was handled.

Renovations

Rent-ready, faster

A vacant house costs money every single day it sits. We renovate our own properties on that clock, with a standing crew of licensed trades, and we put the same crew to work on houses other owners already have.

The Approach

Acquire, renovate, rent, maintain

The same sequence every Starfighter company uses, applied to houses: understand the numbers, fix what's broken, put it to work, then keep it working.

01

Acquire

What the house actually earns, costs, and needs — before anyone falls in love with it. Rent comps, expense history, deferred maintenance, and what the renovation really runs.

02

Renovate

Systems first, then finishes. Written scope, line-item budget, licensed trades, and a timeline that treats every vacant day as a cost.

03

Rent

Priced to the market, listed with real photos, and leased to residents we've screened consistently. Clear terms, no surprises in month three.

04

Maintain

Preventive schedules and the same crew that did the renovation. Small problems get fixed while they're still small.

Our Scope

Where the line is

We own and rent our own properties, and we renovate properties for other owners. That is the entire business, and being clear about it protects everyone.

Starfighter Real Estate is not a brokerage, a property manager, or an investment firm.

We rent the homes we own ourselves, and we renovate for owners who hire us. Specifically, we do not:

  • Represent buyers or sellers as a brokerage
  • List or sell property for other owners
  • Manage rental property owned by others
  • Collect rent or handle leasing for other owners
  • Offer investments, securities, or syndications
  • Accept outside capital into the portfolio
  • Provide legal, tax, or investment advice
  • Appraise property or issue valuations

On licensing: renting property we own does not require a real estate license in Arizona, and Starfighter Real Estate holds title to every property it rents. Renovation work is performed under our contractor license and by licensed trades. We do not manage property for third-party owners, which is the activity that requires a broker's license.

Two ways to work with us.

Starfighter Real Estate is in development. Whichever side you're on, tell us what you need and we'll tell you honestly whether we're ready for it yet.
