Managing Income Properties Managing Income Properties

Death and taxes are two of life’s certainties. But as a landlord, you face one more certainty other people don’t — extreme time deficit. Property management is something that can consume every minute of every hour of your day…literally.

A landlord always has to ensure the safety of an occupied rental property. That it follows all housing codes and is in good repair. And when emergencies, like flooding or gas leaks, arise, a landlord has to respond immediately—even if the problem happens in the middle of night.

Then there’s the small matter of rent. Tenants need to pay on time but sometimes they don’t. As a landlord, it’s your responsibility to not only collect money owed but to stay on top of situations — such as failure to pay rent — that could lead to eviction and/or other legal action. And no matter how difficult the circumstances, you still need to handle these matters without sacrificing your professionalism.

And that’s just for the people who already live on your property.

If you need to find tenants, you have to go through the process of advertising the property online and with brick-and-mortar real estate agencies.  Then you interview potential tenants and do background checks. And even then, you’re not always guaranteed that a new renter will work out to your satisfaction. The person could end up breaking a lease for reasons beyond his or her control, such as a divorce or new job in another city, which leaves you needing to look for a new tenant and scrounging for time to do it.
