Trying to save a few bucks when picking a Property Manager can be quite expensive in the long run. While we are not the cheapest, we choose to compete on our property management knowledge, extensive Corporate HR depts/Relocation firms contacts and property maintainance experience. We have rented quite a few properties in one day, saving the owner lots of carrying costs and paying for ourselves in saved vacancy costs. Why step over a dollar for a dime?
Top Ten Questions to ask when interviewing Property Managers:
1. Are you a licensed Indiana Real Estate Broker?
2. How long have you been licensed?
3. Do you have Errors and Ommission Insurance?
4. Do you have a website dedicated to NW Indiana Rentals?
5. How many properties do you currently manage?
6. Do you have a local professional office?
7. Do you give your cell phone number to tenants?
8. Will you email lease documents and monthly income-expense spreadsheets?
9. What are the current Indiana Tenant-Landlord laws?
10. How do you handle evictions?
