Professional Property Management for Long-Distance Rentals

As a property management company that specializes in managing commercial, residential, and home owners association properties, we understand the unique challenges that come with being a long-distance property owner.

Trusting your valuable property to tenants is a difficult enough step, but when you live far away from the property, it can be even more challenging. Many owners worry about whether things are going smoothly and struggle to stay informed without racking up big travel bills to check on the property. If there are problems, it can be difficult to manage repairs or legal issues from hundreds of miles away.  

That's why it's essential for long-distance property owners to make sure their properties are managed well. Here are some factors to consider and tips to make sure your valuable asset is taken care of even when you can't physically be there.

Is hiring a property manager necessary?

Some owners delegate the job of dealing with the rental to family or friends. But managing rentals – overseeing contractors for repairs during the workday, answering middle-of-the-night emergency calls, or handling tenant complaints – often involves more time, attention, and expertise than they can provide.

As a professional property management company, we provide your property with the attention it deserves. We have the experience to anticipate any potential problems and market knowledge to reduce vacancy times. This will not only help you lower expenses and possibly increase revenue, but it will also give you peace of mind. We will make a big difference in how your property is maintained and appreciates over time. We handle everything from rent collection, leasing, and maintenance to accounting and due diligence issues.  

One of the main benefits of hiring a property manager is that they have the experience and knowledge to navigate the legal and financial aspects of property management. This can include understanding local laws and regulations, as well as handling any legal issues that may arise, such as eviction proceedings. A property manager will also have the knowledge and resources to properly screen tenants, which can save you time, money and headaches in the long run.

Another benefit of hiring a property manager is that they can help you to obtain a good return on your investment. To make sure that your asset continues to provide you with a good return on investment, we examine your expenses in the context of your revenue stream. The rent you receive is your income from the property, but your expenses include everything from marketing to property maintenance and repairs, as well as tenant evictions. As a landlord, you may face unexpected issues in one or more of these areas. We, as a professional property management company, will be able to step in and handle any problems. Not only will this result in decreased vacancies and lowered expenses, but it will also increase your return on investment.

How can you stay informed about your rental property?

When you live far away, it can be difficult to stay informed about your property. After all, you can't just drive by. Some owners rely on receiving rent payments to assure them that everything's going well. But tenants who pay rent can still create problems or inadvertently allow property issues to worsen. Rent payments don't tell you what's going on inside the property.

We use the latest high-tech software to give owners a virtual window into their rental property. The software gives you secure anytime online access to rental agreements and financial statements, along with updates on inspections, property maintenance, and marketing efforts. We even post-inspection photos to give owners additional peace of mind. Whenever you want to know how things are going, you can just log on. The software also allows owners another way to communicate with management, in addition to phone calls and direct e-mail.  

Another way we help to keep you informed is through regular communication. We understand that you may have many questions and concerns about your property, and we want to make sure that you always have access to the information you need. This includes regular reports and updates on the financial performance of your property, as well as any issues or concerns that may arise. We also make sure to keep you informed of any major decisions or changes that may affect your property, and we always welcome your input and feedback.

In addition to keeping you informed, we also make sure that your property is well-maintained and that any repairs or maintenance are taken care of in a timely manner. We have a team of experienced and qualified contractors who can handle any repairs or maintenance that may be needed, and we also have a 24-hour emergency service in place to handle any urgent issues that may arise.

In conclusion, owning a long-distance rental property can be challenging, but with the help of a professional property management company like ours, you can rest assured that your property is in good hands. We have the experience and expertise to handle all aspects of property management, from rent collection and leasing to maintenance and legal issues. With our help, you can focus on enjoying the benefits of property ownership, while we take care of the day-to-day management of your property.
