EXPERTS IN PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
Ready to help you at ANY time of the day... or night
Extra Property Management is a full-service property management company working for rental owners across Ewing Township and the rest of Mercer County. Our office at 354 S Broad St sits in downtown Trenton, right on Ewing's southern border — close enough to walk a vacant unit near The College of New Jersey or file at the county courthouse the same day. We have earned a 4.8-star rating across 253 Google reviews by doing the unglamorous work well: filling units with screened tenants, collecting rent on time, and keeping owners informed.
Full-service residential, HOA & commercial management across Mercer, Middlesex, Somerset, Burlington, Hunterdon & western Monmouth NJ + Bucks County PA.
Whether you own a single Cape off Cadwalader Park, a duplex in Prospect Heights, or a house leased by-the-room to TCNJ students, we handle the day-to-day. Our residential property management in Ewing covers the full cycle from vacancy to renewal — and we manage condos, HOAs, and commercial space too.
Acting as your leasing agent in Ewing, we market your unit across the major rental portals, show it, and run full tenant screening on every applicant — credit, income verification, eviction history, and prior-landlord references. Demand here is deep and year-round: The College of New Jersey, NJM Insurance, ETS, and the state agencies headquartered in the township keep qualified applicants coming, so we can hold out for a tenant who pays and stays.
Tenant screening processTenants pay through an online portal with automatic reminders and late-fee enforcement, and we deposit your net proceeds by direct transfer with a clear monthly statement. If a payment slips, we act on it immediately rather than letting arrears build into a bigger problem — the same disciplined rent collection whether you own one duplex or a small Ewing portfolio.
Rent collection servicesMuch of Ewing's housing stock is post-WWII — Capes, ranches, and Colonials built during the township's mid-century boom — so aging systems and deferred repairs are a real part of the job. We coordinate work through vetted local vendors, hold to a spending threshold you approve in advance, and give tenants a 24/7 way to report issues so small problems get fixed before they become expensive ones.
We document move-in and move-out condition with photos, run periodic interior and exterior checks, and handle the Certificate of Occupancy inspection Ewing requires from the Township Construction Official on every change of tenancy before a new tenant can move in. Consistent inspections protect your security-deposit position and catch lease violations early.
If a tenancy goes wrong, Mercer County eviction cases are filed with the Special Civil Part of the Superior Court in downtown Trenton, and New Jersey's Anti-Eviction Act limits removals to specific just causes. We manage the process end to end — proper notice, filing, and court coordination — and our screening is designed to keep you out of that courtroom in the first place.
Eviction servicesYou get itemized monthly statements, year-end summaries built for your accountant, and on-demand access to every invoice and lease document through the owner portal. For out-of-state owners — and Ewing's steady employer base draws investors who live nowhere near Mercer County — that transparency is the difference between owning a rental and worrying about one.
Ewing isn't HOA-dominated, but it has real condo and townhome communities — The Jefferson at Ewing with its clubhouse and pool, Village on the Green, and newer for-rent product at Ewing Town Center. We handle condo and HOA management for boards and self-managing associations, manage individual condo rentals inside those communities, and take on commercial property management along the Parkway Avenue and Route 1 corridors.

Ewing is unusual for a Mercer County suburb: about 46% of its occupied homes are renter-occupied — roughly 8,400 of some 18,300 households — a much higher renter share than neighboring towns, driven by The College of New Jersey and easy access to Trenton employment. Median gross rent sits around $1,593 a month per the Census, while actual asking rents run higher: one-bedroom units commonly list around $1,600–$1,900 and two-bedrooms around $1,900–$2,400, pulled up by newer complexes like Ewing Town Center. Every free rental analysis we do starts with a proper rental market analysis for your specific block, because a Glendale single family home and a Parkway Avenue condo don't rent for the same number. For an investment property owner, that combination of deep renter demand and mid-market rents is exactly what makes Ewing a working landlord's town rather than a speculative one.
Two forces anchor demand. First, Ewing's employer base: The College of New Jersey sits entirely within the township with roughly 1,600 staff and thousands of students who need off-campus housing, alongside NJM Insurance on Sullivan Way, Educational Testing Service on Phillips Boulevard, the NJDOT and NJ State Police headquarters, and Trenton-Mercer Airport. Second, commuting: the West Trenton rail station on SEPTA, the nearby Trenton Transit Center on NJ Transit's Northeast Corridor, and quick access to I-95/295 and Route 1 put both New York and Philadelphia within reach. The dominant investor property types are single family homes and two-family duplexes, plus garden and newer purpose-built apartments where apartment building management makes sense. It is not a short-term-rental town, though: Ewing is a weak Airbnb market with no tourism draw, so nearly all of our work here is standard long-term leasing.
Ewing Township requires annual landlord registration. Every non-owner-occupied one- and two-unit rental must register with the Township's Construction/Code Enforcement Office each year and renew by January 31 — even when the tenant hasn't changed (Township rental-property ordinance, amended by Ord. 23-20 in 2023). The fee is $50, filed at the Code Enforcement Office at 1666 Pennington Road, and each unit is inspected on every change of tenancy. A Certificate of Occupancy from the Township Construction Official is required before any tenant moves in, and landlords must give each tenant a copy of their Certificate of Registration.
On top of the local rule, New Jersey's statewide obligations apply: the Truth-in-Renting Act, the security-deposit law (maximum one and one-half months' rent in a separate interest-bearing account with annual disclosure), the Anti-Eviction Act's just-cause standard, and the state Landlord Identity/Registration filing. We handle the annual Ewing registration and renewal, the CO inspection on turnover, the tenant disclosures, and deposit compliance for you — missing that January 31 deadline or a required disclosure is exactly the kind of avoidable exposure a manager exists to prevent.
Ewing is a Trenton-adjacent town, and that adjacency is our edge: our office is right across the city line, so we're not a statewide firm managing Ewing from a distance. We know the difference between a Glendale Cape, a Prospect Heights duplex, and a by-the-room TCNJ student house — and we price and manage each accordingly. Pair that local presence with a 4.8-star reputation built on 253 real Google reviews, the largest, most current review moat of any manager working this market, and you have exactly what a hands-off owner should be hiring for.
I've been using Extra Property Management for some time now and honestly, they've made owning a rental so much easier. They take care of everything, from dealing with tenants to making sure the property is looked after.
I had a wonderful experience renting my home through Extra Property Management. The whole process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. The team was always responsive, helpful, and made everything easy. Highly recommend!
I had a few properties that became too much for me to handle on my own, but Extra Property Management did an amazing job. They helped me with everything, keeping track of the details, and taking care of my tenants with respect.
Most full-service property managers in the Ewing and greater Mercer County market charge between 8% and 10% of collected rent for ongoing management, plus a one-time tenant-placement fee that typically runs from half a month to a full month's rent. We publish our numbers up front in a free rental analysis so you can compare property management fees in Ewing honestly rather than guessing — affordable, flat-rate management with no surprise line items.
"Best" comes down to local knowledge, responsiveness, and a track record you can verify. Extra Property Management holds a 4.8-star rating across 253 Google reviews, works Ewing from a Trenton office right on the township border, and knows every Ewing sub-market from Glendale to the TCNJ student blocks. We'd rather earn your business with a straight rental analysis than a sales pitch.
Yes. Ewing's TCNJ sub-market — houses and units leased by-the-room to students — is one of the township's most active rental niches, with its own turnover rhythm, inspection needs, and Certificate of Occupancy requirements on each change of tenancy. We handle student-rental placement, screening, rent collection, and the Ewing registration and CO inspections that come with it.
We do. Ewing eviction cases are filed with the Mercer County Special Civil Part in downtown Trenton under New Jersey's Anti-Eviction Act, and only a Special Civil Part court officer may execute a removal. Business-entity landlords must be represented by a NJ attorney. We manage notice, filing, and court coordination from start to finish — though our upfront tenant screening is built to keep you out of that process in the first place.
Regularly. Ewing's steady employer and student demand draws investors who live nowhere near Mercer County, and our owner portal, monthly statements, and local hands-on team are designed so an out-of-state owner never has to fly in to manage a problem. We handle showings, maintenance, the annual January 31 registration, and everything in between.
All of Ewing Township — Glendale, Prospect Heights, Mountainview, West Trenton, Wilburtha, the TCNJ area, and the Parkway Avenue corridor around Ewing Town Center and The Jefferson — plus the surrounding Mercer County towns. If you own a rental anywhere in Ewing, from a single Cape to a condo or commercial unit, we can manage it.
