Tips and Traps for managing your PM

• PM purpose is to give you more time to pursue more JV’s, other interests are they doing that for you? Are you letting them?

• Help you in not being emotionally involved with your tenants lives and problems, which depending on your personality can be a major time vampire

• PM should free you up from the day to day, are you letting them?

• Is Property Management just a side business to their actual business of Real Estate Sales? This can be dangerous for an investor as their PM(realtor) might not be as focused as they should be on their service to you

• Is their lease a good one? Bad leases leave the owner open to problems, legal and otherwise

Property Management: Tips for choosing a PM

• Best property managers are good with people, like people, are people and are wary of mankind, good people management is an asset

• PM sets the relationship tone with Tenants and are firm and fair when dealing with them, expectations are set and adhered to

• Marketing-are they where the good tenants are? Newspaper is questionable for city tenants, one of the best ways in a smaller centre

• Good judge of people to screen out ‘Bad Tenants’

• Good at finding the respectful long-term tenants that build equity

• What’s their reputation

• Focused on keeping your property rent ready(good curb appeal, clean, not run down, attentive to preventative maintenance)

• Creating and maintaining positive experience with tenant prospects

• Tenant referral program and incentives to get the best tenants to get you more good tenants “birds of a feather flock together”…most of the time

• Do they have a website? Do they carry listings on that website? How attractive are those listings as opposed to other listings websites? (ours has Virtual Tours when and where possible)

• Obviously licensed, RECA has insurance that protect landlords from PM bad behavior.

• Use good lawn and window signs, just a phone number on a sign is not as effective as number and website

• Newspapers are losing ground to on line publications that target smaller and smaller audiences, does your PM understand the niche your property is most attracted to and target market them?

• Enough staff to handle things?

• Vacancy levels vary with types of property

• Prospect lists-return a service call to tenant waiting list as places become available

• Find someone who doesn’t mess around with bad tenants

• Understand the Tenant is your asset, the property is the banks asset

• Does the PM help tenants who fall on hard times? Connect with community aid groups or aid groups that can and do provide emergency funds and get rent collected?

• Keep good tenant records, property records

Link building group

I am looking to network with local real estate or other professionals and establish reciprocal links for our websites. If you are a business owner not in real estate there still might be benefits.

The benefits are:

  • Better SEO
  • Build a local networkable community
  • establish strategic partnerships
  • increase all our business collectively
  • Learn from each other for business improvement
