How do they communicate?

Knowing how to show an apartment can mean the difference between filling a unit or having it sit empty. This will lead to loss of profit. Does the property management company hire people that know how to sell? Do they train their leasing agents on how to properly show and close?

Distance between management your property?

Transparency in accounting

If a management company has to travel far to visit your property they will likely make visits infrequently. It is possible to manage properties that are a fair distance, but it takes a plan and the knowledge of techniques to make it happen effectively.

The company you hire needs to be transparent with your money. Ensure you have 24 hour access to your accounting. The more time between spending and accountability the greater chance of loss from fraud or employee's unnecessary transactions.

Do they have a maintenance plan? 

Managing a section 42 senior property is much different than managing a market rate multi-family building. The way your property is marketed is very much dependent on the area of the industry in which your building falls. It is important  to make sure the company you select has specialized experience in your particular property.

Experience in your type of building?

Our Mission

Reactive maintenance is not something you want to deal with. It is very expensive and stressful. You need to be sure that the company you hire has a written plan for preventative  maintenance.  Daily, weekly, and monthly inspections of systems and areas is a necessity.

Do they know how to properly show an apartment?

Communication with the owner is important .  Without communication the owner does not understand what is going on with their investment or why changes are being made. Does the property management company provide absolute clarity when it comes to the current and future needs of your building? Do they provide photo documentation of repairs and detailed monthly reports?
