Property management in Creve Coeur
Creve Coeur is about twenty to twenty-five minutes from our office at 920 First Capitol Drive in St. Charles. The city doubled in size in the 1950s, so the single-family stock is post-war ranches, many of them being replaced by larger custom homes, alongside villa and condo communities from the late 1960s through the 1980s like Chatfield Place and Old Ballas Village and newer gated enclaves like Belle Maison. Zillow's home value index sat near $590,000 in early 2026.
Mercy Hospital St. Louis is one of the largest employers in the region, Barnes-Jewish West County and Missouri Baptist University are in the city, and Bayer Crop Science's campus and the Danforth Plant Science Center anchor the 39 North district. Tenants are physicians, researchers, and corporate staff, often on a contract or a relocation. Three-bedroom houses listed in 2026 at roughly $2,350 to $2,500 and two-bedroom apartments near $1,500.

Owning a rental in Creve Coeur
- No standalone rental inspection program
- Creve Coeur ties occupancy approval to building permits and changes of use rather than running a separate rental inspection on each tenant change. We confirm what the Building Division requires for your specific property before listing.
- Short-term rentals by registration
- The city allows short-term rentals under its zoning code with annual registration, a two-night minimum, occupancy limits, a local contact, and a renter log. Furnished mid-term rentals near the hospitals are the stronger model here, and we run the numbers both ways.
- Parkway, Ladue, and Pattonville
- The city is split among three districts, Parkway to the west, Ladue to the east, and Pattonville to the northeast, and the district changes the rent. Every listing names it.
- Condos and villas
- A large share of Creve Coeur rentals are condos and villas with associations that have leasing rules and sometimes rental caps. We read the documents before quoting and keep the tenant inside them.

Questions Creve Coeur owners ask
You get a written quote for your specific property before anything is signed. Our leasing fee is half of the first month's rent rather than the full month most companies charge, and the monthly management fee is quoted as a flat percentage with no setup fee, no markup on maintenance, and no fee for an inspection that is already part of the job. The First-Month Test page shows how that difference adds up over a lease.
Most well-priced homes in Creve Coeur lease within two to four weeks of listing once the occupancy permit is in hand. The usual delays are price, condition, and permit timing, and we address all three before the listing goes live so the property is not sitting vacant while a problem gets sorted out.
In most of the St. Louis area, yes. Many municipalities require an occupancy permit or inspection before a new tenant moves in, and the rules differ from one city to the next. We handle the application, schedule the inspection, and clear any items on the list, so the permit is ready when the tenant is.
Brad Touchette, the owner and a Certified Property Manager. Touchstone keeps its portfolio small on purpose, so the person who quoted your Creve Coeur property is the same person who screens the tenant, handles the maintenance call, and sends your statement. There is no call center between you and your property.
Yes. We review the existing lease, introduce ourselves to the tenant, set up rent collection and maintenance reporting, and document the property's condition so there is a clear record from the day we take over. Nothing changes for a good tenant except who they call.
