How to Select A Property Manager or Property Management Agency
What is property management? What does a property manager or property management company do?
Property management is the operation of commercial and/or residential real estate. Property managers
or property management companies are often hired to serve as liaisons between a landlord and the tenants.
Some manage home owner associations (HOAs). Property managers may also manage property construction,
development, repair and maintenance. Their primary duties often include accepting rents, as well as
responding to and handling maintenance issues, evicting tenants (if needed) and advertising and filling
vacancies which includes screening and selecting tenants.
At times, property managers may be involved in and/or initiating litigation with tenants, contractors or
insurance agencies. Litigation is frequently considered a completely distinctive role which can be handled
by or in consultation with trained attorneys. In situations where a property manager is not working in
consultation with an attorney, special attention must be given to Landlord Tenant Law, especially when
dealing with evictions, non-payment of rent, harassment, reduction of pre-arranged services, and public
nuisance. Therefore, property managers must keep up to date with new laws and practices in the localities,
cities and states in which they manage property.
Property management fees are commonly based on a percentage of the gross rent collected each month
(typically 3%-10%), and may also include lease commissions as well as additional fees to cover repair
and maintenance costs.
Some states require property managers and/or property management companies to be licensed real estate
brokers or that they be licensed real estate salespersons working with licensed real estate brokers.
Other states that do not require licensing require property managers and/or property management companies
to register with the state.
Property management is gradually becoming more and more reliant upon computer-aided facility management
software. Please, visit our Real Estate Property Management Software page.
