For Owners & Students

Preferred Vendors

A curated network of trusted, local professionals serving the UCR area — the same people our community uses to keep properties running, marketed, and move-in ready. Vetted by referral, not by advertising.

How it works: These are independent local businesses our community has worked with or trusts. Highlander Housing is not affiliated with these vendors, does not employ them, and earns nothing from referrals. Full contact info, current availability, and direct introductions live inside the Discord. Always vet, quote, and contract with any vendor directly before hiring.
The Network

Trusted pros, by category

Whether you're prepping a rental, fixing something fast, or getting a property market-ready, here's who the community turns to.

🔧
Handyman & General Repairs
Reliable, responsive handymen for turnover repairs, fixture swaps, drywall, doors, and the dozen small things that come up between tenants.
⚡
Electrician (Licensed • Insured • Bonded)
Panel upgrades, EV charger installation, recessed lighting, and code-compliant electrical work for rentals and ADUs.
🌿
Landscaping & Yard Maintenance
Routine yard upkeep, cleanups, and curb-appeal work — the difference between a listing that sits and one that leases fast.
📸
Real Estate Photography
Professional listing photos that make a property stand out so it doesn't sit on the market. Worth every dollar on a rental or sale.
🏦
Lenders & Financing
Including lenders who work with foreign national buyers and investors — financing options beyond the all-cash assumption most are told they need.
🧹
Cleaning & Turnover
Move-out deep cleans and turnover service to get a unit photo-ready and rent-ready between tenants.
🚿
Plumbing & HVAC
For leaks, water heaters, heating and cooling — the systems that turn into emergencies if you don't have someone on call.
🛠️
Painting & Flooring
Interior paint and flooring refreshes that reset a tired rental and boost what it commands.
📦
Movers & Furniture
Local movers and furnishing help for students, and for owners staging a furnished rental or ADU.
🔑
Locksmith & Property Security
Re-keying between tenants, smart locks, and security basics every landlord should handle at turnover.
