Rental Property Management Services For Distressed Landlords
Posted: Apr 19, 2016
Real estate is a popular form of investment not just in NYC but various other parts of the USA. One of the main reasons being it brings higher returns in a short span of time. Especially commercial real estate, wherein you can buy a large property and allow many firms to run their businesses from the premises. However, a number of investors are reluctant on becoming landlords and their fears are rational. But this shouldn’t stop one from investing in commercial real estate. In this article we will explore some of the issues faced by landlords along with the solutions.
1. Collecting rent
An investor will always spend on a property that is strategically located in order to get higher returns. And a strategic location can be a few kilometres away or in a different city altogether. As a landlord it is not feasible to travel every once in a while to collect rent. However, hiring a rental property management company can solve this issue easily. No matter where your property is located, the company will make sure that rent is collected on time from all your tenants.
2. Repairs
Imagine your tenant calling you up at odd hours and complaining about a problem that needs to be fixed immediately. Most tenant and landlord agreements require you make the repairs immediately in order to avoid additional damage. However, when you call the repairman for an emergency he will also charge you for emergency repairs. The solution for this can be having good contacts with electricians, plumbers and alike in order to save on the additional charges.
3. Problematic tenants
Another problem of being a commercial property landlord is that not all your tenants will pay their rent on time and come up with every possible excuse for the delay. If you are someone who easily gets convinced then its best you hire someone to do it for you. As mentioned earlier rental management services include collecting rents on time from all your tenants.
4. Keeping the property safe
You may feel like you have found suitable tenants for your property, but how do you determine that? Especially, if you are not able to pay regular visits. What if a tenant is running an illegal business? You wouldn’t want to spoil your reputation, therefore its best to let people who are experts on this front do it for you.
