Why In-House Maintenance Saves North Pole & Fairbanks Owners Thousands Each Year

Owning rental property in Interior Alaska comes with challenges most markets never deal with — extreme temperatures, long winters, freeze-ups, emergency call-outs, and repairs that can’t wait days. The number one source of unexpected owner expenses is slow or unreliable maintenance.

That’s why Maverick Management built something no other local company offers at this level:
a fully in-house, licensed, insured maintenance team based out of our Schact Street headquarters.

The Result? Faster Repairs, Lower Costs, and Protected Properties

Because our maintenance techs, equipment, and trucks are on staff—not outsourced—owners get several advantages:

1. Sub-2-Hour Response Time

Most companies rely completely on third-party vendors. In peak season or freezing conditions, this can mean delays of days.

At Maverick, our average response time is under 2 hours, with most work fully resolved within 24 hours.

2. Lower Repair Costs for Owners

Third-party vendors often charge emergency rates, minimum hour blocks, or premium seasonal fees.

Our in-house team eliminates those markups.

Owners routinely save hundreds (and over a full year, thousands) because we control the workflow, costs, and scheduling.

3. Your Property Isn’t Waiting in Line Behind Someone Else’s

Vendors in Fairbanks and North Pole are busy — and your rental is just one job on their board.

Our maintenance team only works on Maverick properties, meaning your tenants and your building are always top priority.

4. Better Tenant Satisfaction = Longer Leases

Fast, professional maintenance is the #1 reason tenants stay longer.

Our online portal + real-time communication + documented follow-up work means renters feel taken care of — which directly reduces turnover and vacancy for owners.

5. Veteran-Owned Structure and Discipline

Our in-house team operates with the same:

  • accountability

  • reliability

  • clear communication

  • operational efficiency

…that define our entire company. It’s one of the reasons we’re the highest-rated property management company in Interior Alaska.

6. Strategic Schact Street Location Saves Time

Our office and maintenance hub sit between Fairbanks and North Pole, letting us dispatch quickly in either direction — especially crucial during:

  • freeze-ups

  • snowstorms

  • power outages

  • emergency repairs

This strategic geography is one of Maverick’s major competitive advantages.

Conclusion

If you own property in North Pole or Fairbanks, in-house maintenance isn’t just a convenience — it’s an asset protection strategy. Maverick Management reduces risk, cuts repair costs, and ensures your tenants stay long-term.

Your investment deserves a team built for Alaska — not a patchwork of third-party maintenance vendors.
