Commercial property management is perhaps the busiest and most intense part of the property industry. The knowledge that the property manager brings to the task is significant and special. Putting it quite simply, these people work very hard and should be carefully chosen for the buildings they manage. Are the best managers for the role sourced elsewhere or are they allowed to rise through the ranks and other roles in the office? The answer is probably both. Importantly the person chosen for the role has to handle investment strategies for the landlord and occupancy issues for the tenants. This requires solid intelligence and analytical skills. Retail property is even more advanced on the skill level scale. So much damage can be done to a property if the manager is underskilled or not well supported. All this requires a reasonable fee base of course. If the management fees are a recoverable item in a lease then it is a no brainer for the landlord to chose the best people to manage thei...

Weeks ago Camille decided she wanted to throw a surprise party for her daddy's upcoming birthday. She decided on the guest list and one morning we went to Michael's to pick out stickers and paper for the invitations. She kept it a huge secret and didn't give away the surprise. Here are some pictures from the event. I tried to take a video of the surprise moment but my camera died so I got a 5 second video in which poor Clyde is wearing shirt only - no underpants or pants (guess he was using the potty when it was time to yell surprise) so I will spare you that prize winning clip. Camille helped with the decorations...I wrote the words in pencil and she traced with her paint brush. She did all the other decorating on the page. I served this recipe for dinner and it was delicious...not a low calorie meal but a tasty one! You can read about Michael's other birthday celebration here and here.

If you are searching for a property management company or an independent property manager make sure that you compare quotes. This will help you to get the best deal possible for high quality and reliable property management. What Will a Property Management Company Do For You? Management companies make life easier on the landlord by acting as the liaison between the tenant and the property owner. They collect rent, take care of maintenance problems, find tenants and handle evictions. In some cases they also handle property acquisitions, construction, repair and maintenance. They provide these services in exchange for a fee which is often a percentage of the monthly rent and can range anywhere from 3-10%. In addition to this standard fee some companies also charge additional fees repairs, maintenance and commissions. Comparing rates is the only way to find a company that will offer service and experience at a reasonable rate. What Will You Still Need to Handle? Even with a manager you wi...

I am often asked is hiring a property manager really worth the money? My answer is it depends. The most common tasks associated with property management include collecting the rent, responding to maintenance requests and handling all of the paperwork such as the lease and disclosures. Although these duties are valuable, I don't believe they are the most valuable services a property manager has to offer. In fact, I think the 3 MOST VALUABLE services a good manager can offer are often overlooked. So what are they? The 3 most valuable services a property manager can provide you are: 1. Act as a neutral party between owner and the tenant. 2. Save you time. 3. Protect your privacy and your property. Why? Because when it comes down to it property management is less about managing the property and more about managing people. Sure, the property has its requirements, but the property doesn't clog the toilet or beg to have a late fee waived. PEOPLE DO. Situations involving tenant relatio...
