Property Management Retains Tenants
As you look for ways to increase your tenant retention, consider working with a local Laguna Niguel property management company.
Property managers like us will almost always do a better job of retaining tenants than independent landlords. We understand what residents are looking for and what they need. We have the resources and the technology to provide the type of rental experience that good residents are looking for. And, we work with hundreds of tenants every year. We also have excellent relationships with vendors and contractors, which means we can facilitate repairs faster. We can also negotiate discounted rates, which saves you money.
Plus, we understand the rental market. The expertise of a property manager when it comes to raising the rent, recommending updates and improvements, and
following the laws that are growing more complex each year, is invaluable. We can retain tenants better, thereby increasing what you earn.
Our Resident Benefit Program
A main component of our retention plans is our Resident Benefit Program. We can offer special perks to the residents to keep them happy and willing to stay even with rent increases.
Detailed, Accurate, and Transparent Accounting Maximizes Earnings
- Avoiding Errors with Better Documentation
To protect your investment and optimize its potential, we remain organized with the way we collect, document, and share information.
Our property management accounting technology helps with that.
- For example, you’ll need accurate tax records. As you take advantage of tax deductions and write-offs, you’ll need to demonstrate you’ve spent what you said you spent. We keep good records that are accurate, detailed, and transparent.
- Here’s another example: rent collection. Late fees must be identified. Security deposits must be accounted for. These are just the basics. We’re able to document all income and expenses automatically and efficiently.
We invest in the type of technology that keeps everything digital. Those digital files are essential in helping to access your records and receipts from anywhere you happen to be. With the online portals we provide, you can look at an accounting report or run financial records from anywhere in the world, at any time. Your property managers have a platform ready to capture every invoice, receipt, and record.
How does this help with ROI? You can more easily understand and access your metrics. A good accounting system will provide benchmarks that demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of a particular property or the portfolio as a whole.
Solid documentation is also invaluable in protecting yourself against errors and questions. Maybe you’ll be audited by the IRS, or there will be questions about your deductions. The IRS may demand proof that the income and expenses being reported are accurate. With a solid digital system, these records can be accessed and documentation provided at a moment’s notice.
- We Help You Increase ROI with a Detailed Profit and Loss Analysis
We work with all of our property owners to establish investment goals so that we understand what success looks like. This leads to personalized strategies for increasing and maximizing ROI. We’ll talk about how to put together a system for tracking all the information you’ll need to understand what exactly you’re earning.
Once you’re feeling comfortable with our plans and our methods, it’s important to focus on analyzing the information that’s gathered. This will include all of the data and insights around what you’re earning, what you’re spending, and how things are trending in the market in general.
Our accounting system is pretty advanced, and we will:
- Generate comprehensive reports
- Make sense of data points
- Make some decisions about how to be more profitable with your investment properties
Getting to know your profit and loss in intimate detail is going to increase your ROI now and in the future.
These financial statements can serve as an easy guide in understanding how much is being earned and spent. It helps you identify properties that aren’t performing as well as they should and it also helps to create new benchmarks and goals.
We’ll talk to you about the type of reporting that works best for you. Some investors like to see a monthly report to review in detail and others are fine with a quarterly look at where things stand. This is a priority for us; making sense of the data that’s rolling in daily. The technology we’re using has gives us more information than we can possibly want, and we’re using all of it to inspire better outcomes.
It won’t take you long to notice trends in where your money is going. You will quickly see which properties are losing the most on maintenance or turnover, for example. You’ll be able to see where your rental increases are the strongest.
This will help with future budgeting and forecasting. It’s the type of information that inspires action, which leads to maximized earnings.
- Technology and its Impact on ROI
As we mentioned, we’re able to access more information than ever before. We work with systems, platforms, software, and emerging technologies to manage the data points and process the information.
Property management technology has come a long way in the last decade or two. We now have access to intuitive, automated accounting software that has been extremely helpful with banking, bookkeeping, documentation, and reporting.
This helps us help you earn more.
Property Management Strategies Will Maximize Your Rental Income
We’ve been over some of the most effective ways we can help you earn more in rent. Let’s take a look at some of the additional ways a property management company can maximize your profitability.
Earning Higher Rents
Trying to price your property accurately can be challenging. You want to earn as much as possible, especially because qualified tenants are willing to pay top dollar for a well-maintained rental home. But, you don’t want to risk a price that’s too high. Overpricing your rental property can lead to a longer vacancy time, and that’s a difficult loss to recover.
Property managers understand the local rental market. We know what competing properties are renting for, and we understand how to settle on a price that’s both profitable and competitive. You’ll lose less money on vacancy and you’ll have a less stressful time wondering if you’re losing money on your rental rate.
Cost-Effective Maintenance
Maintenance and repair costs have been rising over the last few years. However, you can leverage our property management resources to keep your costs contained. We:
- Have relationships in place with vendors and contractors, ensuring you get the best work for the most affordable prices.
- Prioritize preventative maintenance, ensuring that those expensive emergency repairs are less frequent and you’re not losing money on deferred and unreported maintenance issues.
- Protect the condition and value of your investment, by working with tenants and conducting routine inspections.
Maintenance that’s managed by a property manager is usually less expensive than repairs that you have to manage on your own. It’s also more reliable. You’ll know you’re working with licensed and insured vendors who care about the quality of their work.
We know earning more money is important to you. It’s important to us, too.
