A local, Houston professional property management company can be one of your greatest assets, next to the actual properties that are managed on your behalf. To select a reliable property management service, you need to research professional property management companies. Preferably, property management services should be local to your Katy, Houston, Energy Corridor, Spring, Westchase, Memorial, Richmond, Sugar Land, Pearland, Pasadena, Fulshear, or other Texas community.
The following questions are designed to help guide your process and to help you make a wise decision in your choice of reliable property management services. There’s nothing worse than bad property management. But a great rental management company will result in more money, less risk and much less stress.
Are their property management services local to Katy, Houston, Energy Corridor, Spring, Westchase, Memorial, Richmond, Sugar Land, Pearland, Pasadena, Fulshear, or your specific Texas community.
It’s important that property managers are local to your community. It provides a connection and offers a sense of community pride and the type of tenants best suited for your real estate.
Does the company leadership own rental properties themselves?
A professional property management team will be active investors themselves. If not, they will not have a clear understanding to know what is needed to excel in your rental market area. They should be able to feel your pain and know everything a landlord needs to deal with to provide reliable property management service.
Are they members of the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM)?
Being a member of a large rental property association such as NARPM means the property management company takes their business seriously. NARPM sets a high standard of excellence in rental property services of professionalism, fair housing practices, and business ethics.
How does the rental management company handle their property maintenance? Do they have local property maintenance team?
It is important to know up front, how they handle their property maintenance. If maintenance for the property is needed, how do they address maintenance issues. And if property maintenance occurs, do they charge anything on top of the actual repair?
Ask about all the fees and expenses for their property management services, including repairs.
Some rental management companies charge a percentage of the rent, some charge a flat fee. Time and effort that a property manager spends on each property, doesn’t change with the rent amount, so why charge more when doing the same thing?
Additional questions to ask as you research a rental management company:
When you contact the property management services, who answers the call? Is it the sales person or someone who is involved in day to day tasks? Does the company use the best property management services software, technology, social media and other strategic advertising and marketing?
Communication is indispensable between owners, tenants, and the property manager. Having great software for communication, tenant screening, streamlining applications and approvals, record keeping, and accounting, is vital for a professional property management company.
