Property Owner vs Property Manager

Sometimes a property owner is also the property manager of a rental property as some owners prefer to take on both duties and have a more hands-on approach to their investment. However, the two aren’t always the same person. Many property owners allow expert property managers to run, maintain and manage their properties so they can be more hands-off in their investment. 

Duties of a Property Manager

A good property manager not only manages and maintains your rental property, but they also provide hands-on services like collecting rental fees and being available to answer tenants questions. Whole Life Property Management San Diego has summarized the key points of a property manager’s job below:

Property tasks

The biggest part of a property manager’s job is maintaining the property, handling repairs, and performing inspections. By ensuring that your property is well taken care of you are adding value to your investment, which is why Whole Life Property Management San Diego only uses the best locally licensed contractors in the area for maintenance and repairs. 

Rent 

A property manager also aids owners in setting a fair rent amount based on the property’s amenities, features and location. Once this is decided upon and the property has tenants, the property manager will aid in rent collection. Whole Life Property Management San Diego provides its clients with an online rent collection system to make paying and collecting rent easier for tenants and owners. Your property manager will also handle unpaid rent and evictions.

Tenants

Property managers will also provide support in finding tenants for your property. Once potential tenants have applied your property manager will perform tenant screening. This is how they check the tenants’ income, employment, criminal background, credit, and rental history. Property manager duties concerning tenants don’t stop there. They also take quick action if tenants already living in the property have complaints or need repairs made.

Communication

A property manager should work hand-in-hand with the property owners to ensure the investment performs well. The two must actively communicate about expenses, maintenance and vacancies. The property manager will also ensure any issues with repairs, legal concerns, and business policies are known by the owner.
