Missouri's fastest-growing city, twenty-five minutes from our office.

Property management in Wentzville
Wentzville is about twenty-five minutes from our office at 920 First Capitol Drive in St. Charles, west on I-70. It was the fastest-growing city in Missouri for two decades, and the housing shows it: Stone Meadows, Villages of Stonegate, Bear Creek, Huntsdale, and Great Oaks are all post-2000 subdivisions with pools and clubhouses, with villas and 55-plus communities mixed in and the older homes clustered near downtown.
The GM Wentzville Assembly plant is the largest employer in the county, the Wentzville R-IV district is the second largest, and SSM Health St. Joseph in Lake St. Louis is a few minutes away, with Mercy and St. Louis Children's facilities under construction. Three-bedroom houses listed in 2026 near $2,300 and two-bedroom apartments at $1,500 to $1,600, and the rental vacancy rate here has been among the lowest in the county.

Owning a rental in Wentzville
- Occupancy inspection on every change of resident
- Wentzville requires a city occupancy inspection each time a home changes residents, and a leased home has to pass before the tenant moves in. The fee is $50, the permit is good for ninety days, and the application runs through the city's online portal, which we handle.
- New construction, HOA standards
- Post-2000 homes mean low maintenance reserves for the first decade, and nearly every subdivision has an association with modest dues and exterior rules. We keep the tenant inside them.
- GM shift workers and school district families
- The plant runs around the clock and its workers want a house close to it, while families follow the Wentzville district's Holt, Timberland, North Point, and Liberty high schools. Both groups are reliable tenants.
- Trash billed by the hauler
- The city contracts trash service and residents are billed directly by the hauler, so the lease has to say who pays it. We write that in up front.

Questions Wentzville 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 Wentzville 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 Wentzville 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.
