Choosing the Right Property Manager: Communication and a Reliable Online Portal

The reasons for a professional property management service boil down to a very simple reason; it is a complex and time-consuming job for landlords.

To guarantee that properties are well-maintained and that tenants are effectively screened, it is also a multi-layered process. It is resource-straining to do one's best to reduce the vacancy rating while also maintaining the rental value of a property and ensuring that a landlord's obligations to the tenants are met without conflicting with real estate authorities such as RERA or DMA. Perhaps the most exhaustive of all is keeping up with local market trends.

?So how do you find the appropriate property manager?

First and foremost, it's important to look for a property manager who is easy to communicate with. While appearances and experiences are important, landlords should do their best to get a sense of how well their property manager communicates and if their methods of doing it are efficient.

?A trustworthy property manager should be able to talk about their experience and explain how they work in simple terms. If you want a checklist to bring to your first meeting, ask for the following:

• What kind of reports should you expect?
• How do their alert systems work? (i.e, sms, email, etc)
• A tour through their online portal.

This is a new checklist that comes into play. In today's market, a landlord's access to a reliable online portal can genuinely be the difference between success and failure:

1. Security: Security should be a top priority. The portal should have robust security measures in place to protect sensitive information, such as personal data and financial information.
2. Accessibility: It should be simple to use and navigate, and accessible from any device with an internet connection.
3. Data Management: It should be able to handle various types of data, including financial transactions, property details, and tenant information. It should also be able to store and manage a sizable amount of data.
4. Automation: To save time and improve efficiency, it should be able to automate routine tasks like rent collection and maintenance requests.
5. Support: Is there ongoing support and training when required?
