What to Look for When Hiring a Property Manager

There are many things to consider when hiring a property manager since there are numerous property management companies. Even after working with a particular team for some time, there’s still a chance you will doubt your decision on whether you chose the right property management team. Most people opt to continue with a struggling working relationship due to the "history," but in reality, it is not ideal for you or your business. At 3 Options Realty, we revolutionize the property management industry by providing exceptional and customized solutions. If you consider hiring a property manager or switching to another service provider, here are some red flags that can guide you to make an informed decision.

What to Look for When Hiring a Property Manager

Lack of Communication

With years of providing property management services, 3 Options Realty uses a client-based approach that requires constant communication and sharing of information with the client. A property manager should communicate effectively, which is a skill our team has mastered. If you notice that your property manager is usually not reachable, rarely provides updates, and takes longer to respond to inquiries. This behavior can also reflect on their communication with your tenants, resulting in low retention. It would help if you started looking for a better service provider.

High Tenant Turnover and Vacancy Rate

What makes 3 Options Realty the ideal partner over all other property management companies is our ability to guarantee short vacancy periods and low turnover due to quality services. If the property manager can’t deliver, and there’s a higher eviction rate, then you need to be concerned about the screening done on your tenants. If tenants fail to resign their lease or break their leases early, then clearly, the services they are receiving are not satisfactory, which is not suitable for business. A high turnover rate is a red flag that shouldn’t be ignored, or you risk failing to reach the bottom line: making a profit.

Our Services

Limited Hours

When you onboard a professional property manager, they will handle every issue with your tenants when there’s an emergency or require maintenance. That’s why 3 Options Realty ensures optimum availability for your tenants and yourself when such issues arise, alleviating delays in response to service requests. Property owners should focus on this since it affects the quality of service your tenants are receiving. While many property management companies, you must work with a reputable and reliable service provider.

Poor Follow-Through

One main benefit of working with a professional property management team is the guaranteed annual or monthly reports on profits made and the ability to fulfill maintenance requests effectively. A property manager with poor follow-through and insufficient attention to detail can’t deliver accurate data, affecting their ability to comply with checks and stay updated on maintenance. This is not a concern you should be worried about when working with the experts at 3 Options Realty, and you are guaranteed regular updates on all the vital aspects of your business. Contact us today and schedule an appointment with our team of professionals.
