If you’re thinking of renting out your house, consider this. Residential property managers can help make and save you money in these five ways.
Property Managers keep your property occupied
Property managers can help minimize vacancies in your rental property. Decreasing vacancies by finding long-term tenants is a way property managers can help you save and make more money. What’s more, is that property managers can help reduce turnover. Turnovers cost money! Paying for advertisement and the cost of fixing any prior tenant damages certainly strains your wallet.
One of the biggest turnoffs in owning a rental property is that you may not always have tenants. Which is to say, you won’t always have money coming in from your investment.
Property Managers help work through legalities
There are a whole host of laws pertaining to the rental market. If you don’t abide by these laws, it’s possible you can run into legal trouble. The best property management companies knows these laws, and might even have legal consult on their staff!
Property Managers screen tenants to rent your property to only the best
Most property management companies will use a screening technique to make sure your investment is rented out only to the best tenants. That way, they can protect you from legal issues like a violation of the Fair Housing Act.
Property Managers market your property
Being a landlord is, essentially, like running a business! Having a property manager means you’ll have a hand in marketing your “business”. The best property management companies have been through the process many times, meaning they’ll be able to effectively market your property because they’ve got experience and they use the latest technologies to reach a maximum number of tenant prospects.
Property Managers handle all maintenance issues
Some property management companies’ include maintenance costs in their management fees. Why not take advantage of that?
The best property management companies have a network of contractors who can take care of the maintenance issues for you. A network of contractors can also be useful in getting discounts, especially as the management company will need a contractor for more than one property.
