If you're a small-time landlord, you might be worried about your margins right now. After all, costs for landlords across the board - from maintenance to mortgages to insurance - are surging across America.
This leaves you with less money left over to reinvest, and diminishing returns from your assets. Given this sorry situation, you might not think that now is the best time to invest in a property manager.
However, a property manager can optimize your portfolio and save you time, cash, and resources to help get your ROI back on track. From lease enforcement to compliance, here's why you should absolutely outsource your property management in this economy.
Better Tenant Relations and Lease Enforcement
Good tenant relations are essential for profitability. High tenant turnover costs landlords a lot of money, while poor relations can lead to neglect on behalf of the tenant which ends up costing you more money in repairs, maintenance, and admin.
By outsourcing to dedicated management companies, you can leave this delicate process in the hands of trained, friendly professionals.
They will take care of all tenant communications on your behalf and ensure that tenants fulfill their side of the lease agreement without souring the relationship. They will keep good tenants in your property for longer, respond to issues in a timely fashion, and ensure happy customers across your portfolio.
Total Legal Compliance
Being a landlord comes with responsibilities and legal obligations. California has a huge raft of laws on its books governing how landlords should manage their property, communicate with their tenants, and document their operations, investment strategies, and income.
If this sounds stressful and time-consuming, it's time to outsource tasks like this to professionals.
A property manager will ensure 100% compliance in every facet of your operations, without you having to even think about it. For some, this peace of mind is priceless.
Maintenance and Repairs
As a real estate investor, one of your most significant outgoings will be maintenance and repairs. It's also a time-consuming task. You need to get maintenance done quickly and to a high standard.
This will help you maintain good relations with tenants and lower the risk of costly repairs further down the line. By choosing an experienced property management service, you can sleep easy knowing they have got it covered.
They will use their extensive network of contractors to ensure all maintenance and repairs are done to a high standard for the best possible value for money. They will take care of the invoicing, and communication, and even help you apply for any relevant tax relief you might be eligible for from this work.
