Why do I need a property manager?
Property management is an invaluable resource for those who live far from the property, travel frequently, or are otherwise unable to reach the home as needed. A property manager is a welcome relief in times of crisis when urgency is demanded. If your home springs a leak in the middle night, for example, you may not be able to arrive in time to handle the problem. By having a local property manager stand in for you during times of crisis, you can end up saving yourself countless dollars – and much unneeded heartache!
What Will a Property Manager Do Exactly?
A property manager serves as your representative throughout the entire rental process. That includes finding and screening prospective tenants for your review. This can be extremely tedious if numerous showings are required prior to finding a suitable renter.
The property manager will then handle all of the formalities to include the lease agreement, rent and deposits, and move-in and move-out logistics. Throughout the rental term, they will maintain the property, address issues and repairs, and deal with evictions should the need arise. All in all, this high level of customer care and prompt service will improve your tenant retention, creating less work, less fuss, and more income for you.
For vacant properties, there’s much that can be done as well. Even if you do not intend to rent your property, property management is still highly recommended in order to ensure the safety of both your property and your belongings from theft or vandalism. Even for a second or vacation home, it is well worth the minor service fee in order to maintain peace of mind. A property manager will be your eyes and ears on the ground, overseeing all repairs and ensuring the safety of your biggest investment, your home.
