 Need  a Quality Property Manager for Your Rental Property?

As the United States’ economy continues to be sluggish, many individuals are finding it difficult to find quality and affordable housing. Although lending rates are at an all time low, lenders have tightened their belts and have made it more difficult for individuals to borrow money to buy a home. You may have investment property, you may have a vacant property that you can not sell, each of which can provide you with an unique income opportunity, only if you have a tenant.

The landscape of the rental market has changed in the past five years. Before, people who were looking to rent, were normally individuals with bad credit, looking for temporary housing when moving to a new city or possibly students. Most times, these individuals were not in a position to purchase housing, because of their bad credit or knowing they would not be in the area long term. The current makeup of potential tenants in the rental market today consist of professional people, young families and recent college graduates. In most cases these individuals have not had the opportunity to build their credit or have not had the opportunity to save the required down payment that most lenders are now requiring on new loans. The tight restrictions that lenders are imposing on new loan applicants can become a property owner who is trying to sell their property biggest nightmare or it could become their friend, that’s if the property owner is willing to rent.

Most individual property owners do not have the time or the resources to find qualified tenants. Most individuals do not have the time or the resources to manage maintenance and mange collections for their rental property. A qualified property manager can assist an individual with these items. Many property owners may believe that hiring a property manager is expensive. The truth is a property manager usually only charges a percentage of the rent collected in addition to any other charges that may be agreed upon by the property owner and the property manager. Most property managers screen their tenant applications carefully and charge an application fee. This process assists the property owner in finding a qualified tenant, a tenant that is serious about leasing their property.

The rental income from an occupied property can provide an owner with many different things. An opportunity to cover such fixed expenses, including mortgage payments, insurance payments and taxes. An occupied property is less likely to suffer from deferred maintenance, since issues are discovered more timely and addressed. The most important thing that rental income can provide is an additional source of income for those who at this time of declining savings accounts and pensions, are struggling to meet their basic needs.

There has never been a better time to explore the opportunity of renting vacant property that you can not sell or having your current rental property managed by a qualified and professional property manager. The opportunity to avoid additional costs, deferred maintenance and put more money in your pocket is here.
