Property management is a tricky business. For most landlords in the Bay Area, finding the right tenants, ensuring proper documentation for tenant move-in and move-out and conducting timely inspections for property repairs is a major challenge. There are landlords that hire property managers to cater to these needs.

Qualified and experienced managers represent robust property management and cash flow maximizing strategy at a reasonable property management fee.

Here are the top ten benefits of using a property manager:

Save money

Property managers generally search for the best prices and highly experienced vendors who are licensed, bonded and insured. We then combine outside services with our in-house maintenance staff along with experienced supervisors to oversee and monitor all regular repairs, and inspections, and prevent them from turning into major problems.

Increase in revenue

Screening tenants beforehand increases your current revenue stream, and only experienced property managers know how to identify the right tenants from a long list of applicants. They conduct online screening and verification of the documents, before forwarding fully completed tenancy applications to the landlord.

Avoid legal issues

TransUnion estimates that the total eviction costs borne by an average tenant exceed $1900. In this regard, property managers prepare a rent payment history to help different renters move up their credit ranks and allow landlords to mitigate risks.

A reliable property manager is well acquainted with all landlord-tenant laws that govern the move in, eviction and shifting process. These include:

Ensuring compliance with Fair Housing Regulations

Protecting tenants from discrimination

Providing complete disclosures for lease contracts

Recovering the rent and late fees

Notifying and inspecting the premises for repairs

Consider turning your rental property business into an LLC to protect your assets.

Improve your vacancy rate

Rent capture process
