3 Times When It Make Sense To Work With A Property Management Company

September 14, 2020 by Jarred

If you have a rental property or another type of investment property, taking care of the ins and outs of being a landlord on top of your other personal and professional duties can quickly become overwhelming. Luckily, there are people and businesses out there who can help you with as many or as few of these types of tasks that you’d like to dish off. So if this is something you’ve been meaning to look into, here are three times when it makes sense to work with a property management company.

You Have A Lot Of Remote Properties

For property owners that live in the same area of their rentals, it can be easy to keep track of what’s going on with your renters. But when you have a lot of rental properties or your rentals are all scattered in different areas, LandlordTips.com shares that it makes a lot more sense to have a property management company take care of things for you.

While some of the tasks of being a landlord or property owner can be done remotely, it’s often better to have someone there with boots on the ground who can look after the place, take care of issues when renters have maintenance problems or move out, market and advertise for new tenants, and do regular inspections of the property.

You Want To Take A More Passive Role

Many real estate investors choose to invest in this particular vehicle because it can often allow you to make a steady income while not having to do things on a daily basis. However, if you’re taking care of all of the administrative tasks on your own, your role may not be a very passive one.

Because of this, many property owners choose to work with property management companies if and when they’re ready to take a more passive role. Even if you just want to offload some of the tasks that you don’t like or don’t have the time for, Erin Eberlin, a contributor to The Balance Small Business, shares that you can create a contract with a property management company that specifies exactly what you’ll be responsible for and what they’ll be responsible for.

You Don’t Have Your Own Maintenance Contacts

With all property ownership, there are going to be maintenance costs associated with proper upkeep. For your own home, doing research on a case-by-case basis for the work you need done won’t be a big inconvenience. But if you’re needing to do maintenance on a lot of different investment properties without having an in with maintenance contacts, your costs can get very high.

To alleviate this issue, Jeanne Sager, a contributor to Realtor.com, shares that you may want to have any maintenance taken care of by a property management company so you can take advantage of the contacts they have and the prices they’re able to get.

If you’re wondering whether or not you should start working with a property management company, consider the information mentioned above to help you make this decision.
