Many property managers and owners of residential real estate are lowering their standards and trying their best to make it easier for potential residents to sign that rental agreement.  Yes, it’s still a tough situation for the property management business because the supply of vacant properties, if you look back, has been increasing over the past few years and if there is one thing that all property managers want is a plenty of qualified potential tenants who need to rent or lease a home.


In property management today, the tenants have now taken the control. Would you believe? Property managers are require to inform the owners to work with the tenant and understand it is a ‘tenant’s market.’ This means tenants are more likely to shop around for better prices on properties to rent, especially if they are being treated carefully.


To keep tenants and maintain their happiness, property managers are more cautious than ever to respect their privacy like giving them advance notice as much as possible if we want to inspect their homes. Also, tenants expect quick responses on requests for repairs and good service. They don’t appreciate property managers who cut corners or keep them waiting when requests for service and repairs have been submitted.


When it comes to keeping owners happy, owners hire the property management company because they want a professional to run both the property and the tenants. If a property manager fulfills every owner’s need the more likely the owner will be satisfied and desire to stay as your client.”


To learn more and to keep up with the latest trends, laws and solutions, it is recommended that property managers connect to an apartment or residential rental owners’ association. This is a good source for ideas where you can have your questions answered.  One of the biggest advantages of becoming a member to these organizations is how they help out owners and managers keep up-to-date on the new laws and regulations. Most owners and tenants nowadays are looking for knowledgeable, experienced and reliable property managers than ever before. The opportunities for property managers who are starting to create an exceptional reputation for gratifying the needs of their clients and residents are huge.
