BiggerPockets

Hello all! This is my first post on here so go easy on me. I started a property management company back in February of 2012 and almost a year in have increase my management portfolio by 25%.

I don't say this because I am looking to toot my own horn, but am coming by a lot of these properties for one main reason. Investors are tired of the way their properties are being managed. I'd say that probably 80% of my business has been because of poor management previously and wanted to get everyone else's take.

Is this normal?

I'm not the cheapest in town I'm sure, but I let them know up front exactly what I charge, what service I will provide, and how it will benefit them. I would love to hear from other property managers or from investors. What do you think makes a good property management company?

I am an investor myself so I guess it's hard to really critique myself as I've always taken care of my properties, but I would love to hear what really separates a property management company from any other from your experience.

Thanks Joel! I appreciate the response. How much is it to upgrade to the Pro? I don't mean to sound like a cheapskate, but every penny counts when you are the business owner lol! Are you anywhere near Atlanta?? I'll be driving a car back from my sisters' in Fort Lauderdale the last week in February and plan to stop and see my buddy for a day or two in Atlanta. If you are around or near I would love to meet up for coffee or lunch and pick your brain I'd even buy! Again, appreciate the info and I'll try to help anyway I can!

I hear ya I appreciate it! I'll look into the basic for sure. Thanks again!
