What are some of the best practices for managing properties remotely or with limited contact?

Effective remote property management hinges on digital marketing for tenant acquisition. Utilize online platforms for targeted marketing, SEO-optimized listings, and engaging virtual tours. These tools enhance visibility and attract potential tenants efficiently. Embrace property management software for seamless screening and leasing processes. Prioritizing digital avenues ensures a streamlined, remote-friendly approach to acquiring and retaining tenants, essential in today's market.

For property management software we use Yardi and Rentmoola as a digital option for payment. With over 200 doors its best to have systems in place and easy access to running reports for late payments, leases ending, and a central place to store "notes" something small that might not make it in the file - "ESA dog is named Scooby" etc. before sending a maintenance worker over. We sent everyone a flyer with a QR code to set up a Rentmoola account. It was a breeze even for our senior tenants.

If you work with a team collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams or Slack can be used for efficient communication and coordination.

Para gerenciar propriedades de forma remota o ideal é contratar um empresa que crie um aplicativo e site para que possa dispor de todas as informa??es possíveis tanto o proprietário como o locatário. Automatizar o processo de analise, cobran?a e repasse.

I like to make a note of tenant birthdays to give them a personal touch with a card every year instead of always having to talk about "issues" or rent. I find a little goes a long way. Also phone calls are very important instead of just email correspondence. A lot can get lost without tone and inflection over the phone. We always consult with our team regarding communication among owners who are not always boots on the ground. Often we can mitigate stressors by solving problems with communication and looping ownerships in only when necessary- thats what works for us.

Hello, I love this. I like to do this for my residents as well. It feels good to build a relationship with my residents and community. By doing it makes my job easier and way more fun.

I would caution for balance when it comes to automated tasks. Automation can streamline processes, but it may also lead to a lack of personal interaction. Some tenants or stakeholders may prefer direct communication with a person rather than interacting with automated systems, especially in situations that require empathy or understanding. Relying too heavily on automation may lead to complacency. Property managers should remain actively involved in overseeing automated processes to ensure they align with the property's goals and that unexpected issues are promptly addressed.

Using a property hub like - Milestones is super helpful! We have our clients sign-in and we can both be looped into scheduling repairs and keeping track of routine maintenance. I am also able to tag my preferred service providers and get quotes through the hub.
