Managing your own investment property is a lot of work. Don’t let this prevent you from establishing a good passive income from investment property. Instead, consider hiring a property management company. Here are 5 things a good property manager will do for you. A good property manager will:

1. Maintain your property’s value

A good property manager will maintain your home to the highest standards. All Seasons uses video on move-in and move-out to document the condition of your property, leaving nothing to interpretation. Besides interior assessments during the lease term, we also make 3 visits to the property throughout the year to check on the status of the landscaping, exterior paint, concrete, decks, etc. This is an excellent way to ensure your property stays beautiful. This means you’ll get premium rents and short vacancy times. If you decide to sell, your property is ready and will fetch the highest price.

2. Screen your property’s tenants

Finding high-quality tenants is a priority, but is time consuming. Doing this on your own, you might have to sift through applications and decide who looks the best, then hope for the best. A good property manager has set procedures to find the most qualified tenants for your property. With All Seasons, you can count on tenants that care for your property, pay on time, and are easy to work with.

3. Keep your property occupied

The point of investment property is to make money, and even a month of vacancy can cause a loss. A good property manager will work to ensure your home always has a tenant. All Seasons prides ourselves on our low vacancy rate—less than 1% on average over the last year. We hit 0% vacancy rate nearly every year for the past 5 years at one point, and we’ve kept a consistent vacancy rate below 2% on average for the past 5 years. We market your home online through websites and social media. We know the market, and how to reach it - and you don’t have to do a thing.

4. Handle your property’s emergencies

No one wants nighttime calls from tenants having plumbing problems, but property emergencies are inevitable. If you’re going it alone as landlord, the tenant will call you anytime they need something. But with a good property manager, all these calls go directly to the property management company, easing the stress that comes with being a landlord. All Seasons has a dedicated emergency line that is answered 24/7. We have vendors we count on to serve our tenants. So the tenants call us, and we get our vendors out there quickly. Then we let you know what needed to be done.

5. Keep everything legal

A good property manager has a lot of experience with the problems that arise between tenants and landlords. All Seasons has relationships with lawyers that specialize in this field. Legal issues are handled swiftly and with professionalism. This means you won’t be taking off work to appear in court, should it become necessary.
