DO YOU WANT TO DO IT ON YOUR OWN?

Owners, who purchase a multi-family rental property, will often find that property management for this building is itself a full-time job

Owners, who purchase a multi-family rental property, will often find that property management for this building is itself a full-time job. The last thing owners want is to lose money on their investment while incurring endless headaches and frustrations along the way. For this reason, it often makes the most sense for owners to instead outsource many services to an experienced property management company. Some of the services that owners should consider outsourcing include:

Collecting Rent

Collecting rent from tenants quickly becomes a stressful and time-consuming process when tenants are slow to make payments. A property management company can serve as an independent third-party, removing relationships from the rent collection process. Since these companies have experience with this service and can usually devote more time to the process than owners can, they typically achieve higher collection rates.

Conducting Inspections

Owners need to make sure that their investments are holding up, which is why inspections are such a crucial part of overseeing a property. When a property management company completes these inspections, it is able to recognize and address small issues before they grow into larger problems. Regular inspections also show tenants that the owner is concerned with property upkeep, which deters neglect or abuse. Along with periodic inspections, there are also circumstances that require specialized inspections. An experienced property management company will know when and how to bring in a contractor to perform an inspection.

Legal Advice

Property owners must consider many legal issues when renting their properties. When is the owner liable? What problems need to be addressed prior to move-in? What conflicts might arise before the tenant moves out? Owners without the legal acumen to address these questions could be putting themselves at risk of elevating their liability. A property management company will have a more thorough understanding of the law and be able to provide advice or refer owners to a trusted legal professional.

Outsourcing rent collections, periodic and specialized inspections, and legal guidance can help an owner reduce costs and liability while improving the overall condition and value of the property. It is worth noting, however, that these are just some of the many services that an owner is better off outsourcing to an experienced property management company.
