Property Management Specifically for Investors

Because my partners and I also invest, our management business is naturally tailoring itself to help investors.  You don't need to live with any pain or frustration of managing your rental holds. Most of our clients are near Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison, Orlando, & Las Vegas, but we are expanding into AZ & TX.  But if we are not yet in your city, please contact me anyway.  We are constantly expanding, and we can work something out.

I like talking about property management in all its forms, for free. Please do no hesitate to reach out to me at [email protected]   Even if you do not hire my firm, I can advise you on how to find a great manager.  

Also, please be on the lookout for any management contracts for sale.  We will buy the book of biz of other property managers.  Please connect with me and A Plus on Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.  https://www.facebook.com/aplusmanagers/

Thanks!

-Tom

@Alex Hamilton  It would depend on the city, but generally speaking, we are on the low end of the spectrum in any market, because our core office staff is dealing with repair coordination & bookkeeping 24/7.  Meaning, all matters for all our clients are looked at by multiple people.  Hire us isn't the same as just having one realtor, converted bookkeeper, or converted handyman (converted to property management).  I own properties, and the problem with that setup is that if that one person leaves the industry, or is ill, or just lets me down, then there is no infrastructure backing them up.  

We have clients in Baton Rouge and New Orleans.  Our pricing decreases based on volume.  Single family home clients pay 100% of one-month as a leasing fee + 8% monthly.  But investors with ten or more units pay 25% leasing fee + 6% monthly.  

However, like you may have seen in my other ad, we offer a la cart pricing as well.  Some investors don't want to turn over every single aspect to us, and we like that.  We want to grow with them, so we can take on very specific categories of management, and then only charge a fee for those aspects.  It is a way to build a great long-term relationship, and then the client can sort of level up over the years on their investments because they know they have support staff.  

Calls from my clients sound like this, "Hey Tom, can we now add phone support?  We just don't want to deal with any calls at all, so if we bundle that with bookkeeping, how does that affect the fee?"

If you send me an email, and let me know where your pain points are, like what you don't like doing or what you see as your bottleneck in your operations, then I can tell you how we can take on those specific aspects and a more-specific fee structure.
