The Benefits of Using a Property Management Company
Posted on Jan 6, 2016 8:56am PST

If you are entering the rental property market, a property management company
can be one of your most important allies. Rental property management companies
handle the day-to-day tasks associated with running your rentals so that
you can focus on other things. Property management services can increase
your return on your rentals while making the process less stressful for
you. Here are some of the benefits of using property management services
for your commercial or residential rentals.
Fewer Tenant Issues
Your rental properties can become a drain on your resources rather than
a revenue stream if you don’t fill them with the right tenants.
However, conducting thorough screenings of prospective renters is complex,
and if you are not used to the process, you may miss important red flags
on applications that could cost you in the future. Property management
companies can screen applications for you and help you choose renters
that are likely to pay on time, stay in the property long term, and cause
the least amount of wear and tear. Because property management firms are
experienced in tenant screening, they also know how to stay within the
bounds of the law when collecting information about applicants.
Shorter Vacancies
The time between occupancies in your rental properties has a significant
impact on your profitability. Property management companies can minimize
vacancies so you are maximizing your return. Property managers can prepare
your property for showings and move-date, market your property, and help
you set the right price for your market to attract quality tenants.
Fewer Legal Issues
From applicant screening to maintenance and evictions, the landlord-tenant
relationship is governed by strict rules. As a novice landlord, it’s
easy to inadvertently violate one of these laws, which can lead to a very
costly lawsuit. Property management companies have extensive knowledge
of your local and state laws and will ensure you stay compliant to help
you avoid legal issues.
