Choosing a Property Manager
Choosing a property management company actually starts before you begin this search. You must first understand your needs in the property management company. For example; what type of properties do they have for rent (if you are a renter) or what services does the cost include (if you are a landlord?) It is imperative that your budget is set well ahead of time of searching for a property management company, and be sure that you also understand exactly what you need in your transaction. It is a good idea to create a list so you do not neglect anything when the day arrives.
Qualities of a Good Property Management Company
Now, once it is time to select the property management company, do not be in a big rush. There are many property management companies out there, but they are not all created the same. Rushing into a decision could be a mistake that you regret! Instead, take the time to do your research, and get to know the carious companies just a little bit better.
Qualities of a good property management company include:
- Appropriate licenses
- Real estate broker accreditations
- Professionalism
- A listening ear
- Prompt, reliable service
To find a property management company, you can use a number of different sources. This includes friends, family, and co-workers, as well as references provided by the property management company in Vancouver and information found online. You can really learn a lot of information from each of these sources. The web may even offer reviews left by those that have worked with the company in the past. This is vital information!
Remember, also, that you should always feel that personal connection with the property management company you are considering working with. Sometimes it is there; sometimes it is not. Do not force it, because you will not have a good experience working with a company that is incompatible with your needs.
Seeking Answers
While compiling your list to take with you when selecting a property management company in Burnaby, also make sure that you create a list of questions to ask the company. The answers to these questions make it easier to find the company that is most compatible to your needs.
Some of the questions you should ask include:
- How do you handle late payments
- Do you offer 24-hour emergency service?
- What services are included in my fee?
- Is there an application fee?
- Do you have references available?
- How do you handle rent payments? When will I receive my money?
Keep in mind the questions that you will want to ask vary depending upon whether you are seeking someone to manage your property or a company to work with for a new place to call home.
