Hello,I am working for a Property Management firm so I'm getting hands on experience. 

I handle all of the acquisitions and intake of new and prospective property management clients.  

We are getting ready to inform owners of this change and are worried about pushback from owners since we bill our management fee based on the monthly rent charge.

Look at some buildings in the area and see how much management companies charge them to provide the service.

Hello everyone, I’ve been speaking with landlords/ property managers to better understand the operational challenges they’re facing and if they resolved it, then how did they do it.

I would like to know how to build your team if you plan to self-manage your properties. 

Here's a link to their transaction management page.

I talk to a lot of out-of-state owners managing rentals in Georgia, and the challenges are almost always the same: delays, documentation, tenant communication, and maintenance.        

I self-manage but I did have a daughter who was in school there so I could understand the leasing cycles and I was given the previous owners leases to start . Definitely try to understand if it’s rented as a student rental now on the academic year schedule.  many times they say they are student rental because they’re close to the university, but they’re not on the academic year schedule .Ours are all one year leases, but all have to move out a couple days early so we can do the turnover.  Go and call around to other landlords in the area or property management companies and get copies of leases and act as a renter and trying to understand what the requirements are and their best practices.  in our area, it is common to pre-lease 9 to 10 months in advance before the academic year begins and for tenants to pay every utility including water .

While I may not build the underwriting models from scratch anymore, I still take a close look at them to provide valuable insights and make informed decisions.Apart from underwriting, I also have a strong passion for property management and renovations.
