Property Managers: Leverage Rental Property to Generate Property Management Business

Consider expanding your service offerings to include mortgage services.  Mortgage services are extremely profitable.  Many states only require one or two courses to get licensed, and you may be able to use the loan officer course to get MCE credit for your real estate license.

You probably have a large pool of prospective investors with adjustable rate mortgages who need to refinance their mortgage. Why refer this business, when you can easily provide this service. You already have an established relationship with each owner.  If you own your office, you may even consider subleasing space and partner with a mortgage broker. Our in house mortgage broker pays us rent and refers real estate and property management business to us. This drastically lowers the overhead cost for both companies.

In my last article, I discussed how 2008 will be a great opportunity to purchase rental property from motivated landlords with negative cash flow properties.  As property managers, we can easily achieve instant equity by purchasing property below market and earning a commission at closing. We can increase our return on investment with monthly cash flow, appreciation, principle reduction, and tax savings by depreciating rental property. However, only licensed real estate professionals can use rental property to generate business income.

No other investment can potentially offer a greater return for a property manager than investing in rental property.  Our company provides maintenance, sales, leasing, property management, and mortgage services. We leverage all of our services to generate as much revenue per client as possible.  We offer a one stop shop for all our customers. 

As a licensed real estate broker and loan officer, we generate thousands of dollars each year by assisting tenants living in rental properties I own to purchase homes. We assist tenants in repairing their credit, obtaining a mortgage, representing them as a buyer’s agent, and utilizing our in house maintenance company to help them fix up the property or make any necessary repairs. Not only are tenants happy to utilize our services, but they refer business to us as well.

In our market, there is a huge demand for home buyers who just sold their home and need a place to park while they build a new home. Yet few property managers offer lease terms less than six month, because short term leases are not profitable for the owner. I fill this market demand with properties I personally own and network with Realtors and builders and offer short term leases for their clients and customers. In return, I ask them to refer my company future property management business. We will refer the owner back to the Realtor if they decide to sell the property in the future. This makes the sales transaction go very smoothly, and Realtors are thankful for us providing this service. We have obtained many property management referrals because of this service offering. Even the short term tenants have referred property management business to us.

The more properties you purchase, the more you can leverage your company’s services to generate business income. You will save thousands of dollars in income taxes each year by depreciating each rental property.  Owning rental property can lower your income tax liability to low single digit percentages. Some landlords with a large rental property portfolio pay no income taxes, because their depreciation expense exceeds their taxable income.

I encourage property managers to take advantage of near record low interest rates and purchase as many rental properties as possible. Leverage your rental properties to generate incremental business income.  

In my next article, I will discuss how licensed real estate agents can leverage rental property to generate additional business and tax savings.

Finding Good Rental Properties for Business Needs

Edit Article |

Perhaps the rental space you are currently in isn’t big enough to accommodate your business growth or if it isn’t conveniently located for your customer base. Perhaps you are just opening your business and looking for a good location. If that is the case, you are going to need to consider a few factors; price, location, target market, and target revenue.

Before you consider price and location, you need to carefully analyze the needs and the potential of your business. Careful market research is the best way to do this. Figure out your target market and how much potential that market offers in your area. Figure out what competition you will be up against and how much you expect to make per month. Although without considering rent it can be hard to estimate your income after expenses, try to determine what common utilities and other business expenses will be and weigh them against your forecasted profits. When doing this, always estimate with the least you expect to make per month to cover yourself in case of a slow month.

If you are opening a retail space you need to not only consider actual floor room for stock, but also storage space including store supplies. This is an important detail many fail to think of which causes tremendous problems down the line.

With your estimated budget for rental properties in mind as well as the space you need, you need to again consider your market base. Your space needs to be easily accessible to your customers and offer ample parking. Drive around and look at potential properties and make calls about viable places. Think about your budget, the location and the size and choose accordingly. Keeping all of these things in mind, you should have no problem finding the perfect rental property.

Why Tenants Must Take Care Of Business When Moving

By: Eva Judge

About the Author

Anset Removals understand that as a tenant, you probably have a deadline for when you need to be out of your apartment; that’s why it’s critical to call Brisbane removalists to get things out quickly and easily. Removals Brisbane are much more pleasant when there’s not a mad dash involved right on the deadline.

(ArticlesBase SC #1294825)

Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/Why Tenants Must Take Care Of Business When Moving





Incredibly, many Australians who already complain a great deal about the cost of moving end up costing themselves even more money. How? By not handling their agreed upon responsibilities as a tenant in a timely, conscientious manner.

Let Your Landlord Know -

The first thing you need to do is to let your landlord know that you’re moving, and give them a firm move out date. Just cutting and running won’t do you any favours, and your landlord is likely to penalise you for doing so.

Get All Of Your Belongings Out -

This is where cold, hard reality sets in; packing up and moving is never fun. It can be simplified by hiring qualified Brisbane removalists, though. Following a checklist to keep your packing on schedule and making sure that a company has been hired to handle Brisbane removals can make the process much less stressful. Waiting until the last minute to pack – and doing it all yourself – is foolhardy.

Do A Thorough, Top-To-Bottom Cleaning -

While the temptation to simply move your things out and maybe do a cursory dusting or sweeping may present itself, the fact is that you’re far better off doing a thorough, impeccable cleaning job on the premises. Devote a decent amount of time to making the place immaculate; that way, you won’t get charged a cleaning fee and you’ll be absolutely certain that you haven’t left anything behind. Finally, make sure that you arrange a carpet cleaning service as generally this forms part of a rental agreement.

Make Repairs -

It is quite common that during the time you spent living in your rental apartment or home, small damages to the property may have taken place. To avoid losing a sizable chunk of your bond, make the necessary repairs. Enlist a friend or a relative to assist you if necessary, but know that doing it yourself will be far cheaper than allowing the landlord to use your bond for it – and you won’t have to deal with any stern letters from them down the line, either.

Document Everything -

Once everything’s moved out, cleaned up and fixed properly, take photos of every room to document its condition. Be sure that a date stamp is included on every photo, too. This will protect you in case your landlord turns around and says something was awry when it actually wasn’t.

Get Your Bond Back -

If you’ve followed all of the steps outlined above – and adhered to the terms of your lease – you should be able to get your bond back without issue. Rather than wasting it on issues that you may have easily resolved, use this money to furnish or decorate your new apartment or home.

With the recent economic depression, the real estate business is greatly affected.  Interest rates noticeably went down.  For businessmen who are aspiring to become owners of rental real estate properties now is the perfect time to fulfill your plans.  If you happen to be in this situation, here are few facts that you should know about this business.

The revenue from rental property relies on the kind of property you acquire.  There are several types of single family and multi-family rental establishments available.  You can pick those single family homes, duplexes, and apartments.  First time businessmen normally opt to buy a house or duplex because the needed investment is smaller.

In addition to that, you have to consider the kind of renter you want to accept.  There is a major difference between an old home near a collegiate institution and a new home in a neighborhood next to a elementary school.  The possible tenants are completely different.  It is inevitable that there are advantages and disadvantages to every type of tenant.  You need to be sure of your awareness to the business that you are entering into.

Rental property investors suggest that you need to “make your money at the buy.”  This means that no matter what happens, even if you have to go back and sell the building in the long run, you will have to make your money.  But the major question here is what do you need to do to make your money at the buy?

You are required to acquire a good property at a fair price.  This is just similar to buying a rental establishment from a “depressed” buyer.  There are different ways of finding for buyers who are very eager to dispose and a realtor who understands that rental business is not their luck after all.

To succeed in rental property business, you must learn the amounts.  You expect that your money will be rolling right away.  It means the money from the rent must be higher than the money you spend every month.

Identifying the right amount rent will require you to have a basic knowledge on your target market.  However, keep in mind that your rates must be reasonable enough to make your business grow.  Compute them based on the average rates of a certain property in a particular area.

In this industry, you have to familiarize how to manage your expenses.  Of course, the biggest amount goes to the mortgage.  If you are calculating your cash flow, do not forget to add the monthly rental expenses.  Apart from that there are few operating costs like advertising, bookkeeping and lawsuits that you have to consider.  Landlords of seasonal rental building will recommend you to set aside a budget for all these expenses in a year.  Since there are cases that the buildings are not rented ad all.

When you already know the figures, you learn how to manage your expense and income.  Bear in mind that every amount you spend must certainly give you an income.

10 Secrets to Managing your Rental Property Without Losing your Shirt or your Cool

Use your rental property showings as the first line of defense against bad renters. Save time by only showing your rentals three times per week.
Schedule all the potential renters to show up at the same time. Make the time you are at the property very short. For example tell them, “I will be at the property from 5:00 to 5:15 on Tuesday.” Some people will show up late. Eliminate them. If they can’t be at a simple appointment on time, how do you know they will pay their rent on time?

Still a Renter? – (part Two)

Renters have an important decision to make, if they ever plan to own a house. Right now, it is the tightest rental market in about 20 years. The hefty rises in rents over the last 12 months were an adjustment to five years of low rental increases. In real terms (taking into account inflation), rents are only up about 5% to 6% on where they were in 2000. However, rents, particularly in the inner city, will increase for the next three years, until the next wave of new ‘tower’ apartments are availa

Boosting Your Referral Business

October 17 2010   Leave a Comment   Tags: , ,

Word of mouth is one of the most effective ways to grow your coaching business. It’s free, or at most costs very little, yet very few coaches use it to anywhere near it’s potential!

Consider this: if you got just one referral from each one of your clients, over the next 60 days you’d double your client base! What would that mean to your potential income and how many more people would you be helping in supportive and uplifting ways?

So, how do you maximize word of mouth? Here are 5 Steps you can take now…

1. Really appreciate your clients and let them know consistently you value them
This is the most important, yet overlooked element of creating endless referrals. Many businesses focus more on profits than on people. Focusing on profits alone can be detrimental to success and ‘Word of Mouth’ success comes from looking beyond just profit into how you can enrich your customer’s lives.

Action: At least once a month, take the time to communicate to each of your clients and show them you appreciate them. Send them something of value, something unexpected, a bonus report, a special piece of news you just found. Make it relevant to them and do it regularly.

2. Create an exceptional experience each time they deal with you or your company
If you can make doing business with you an exceptional experience, your clients will want to tell a lot of people. People want amazing experiences!

Here is an example: There is a Life Coach in Brisbane who has a special relationship with a city coffee shop. Once every 8 weeks he invites his clients to a ‘brains trust’ meeting and the coffee and cake is on the house. Every client that attends gets a card and a voucher from the coffee shop owner to say ‘Thank you for joining us today, we would love to see you again soon’. The voucher is a ‘buy one get one free’ coffee voucher. So they are encouraged to come back again. And because the coffee shop owner is exposing his business to potential new clients the coach pays just cost price on the coffee and cake his clients eat. Normally about 8 clients attend and the cost is around $30. Just a little extra touch can make dealing with your business that much more of an exceptional experience!

Action: What can you do now to add little things that make an exceptional experience? Perhaps you can use the above example or something similar. Remember, start creating exceptional experiences today.

3. Give your customers incentives for giving you referrals
If you’re being passive about referrals then you’re sitting on a gold-mine. Come up with ways of rewarding your clients for referring business to you. They could receive free gifts, such as a 30 minute back massage voucher for referring a friend or a free Style Cut from an award winning beauty salon. The businesses involved would welcome the opportunity to have new clients come their way and would be happy to give that first style cut or treatment for free if they understand the potential value of a new customer.

Action: Reward your clients for referring people to you. Come up with rewards that will be beneficial to your clients. If you worked with executive clients perhaps a free 30 minute health check at a trusted health centre would be valuable or a voucher to use at an upmarket clothing boutique.

4. Make it easy for clients to give you referrals
If you want to get lots of referrals, you must make it incredibly easy for your clients to tell their friends. Don’t expect them to go way out of the way to help you grow your business. Make it as simple as possible.

Action: Develop a ‘referral package’ that you give to your clients. Ask your clients to be an ambassador for your business as you wish to work with people similar to them. The package would include a letter explaining why referrals are important to you, and a series of referral cards that your client can give out to others. Present it professionally and it will hold more value, more worth.  

5. Ask at the right time!
When is the best time to ask for referrals? Any time! If you have followed the steps listed above…you’ve let clients know they are appreciated, you’ve made dealing with you an exceptional experience, you give them an incentive to share your message with friends and you make it easy for them to do so…you can ask for referrals at any time.  

Action: The key is to do something now. Draft up a letter or e-mail today and just send it off to your clients letting them know how much you value them, who much you have enjoyed working with them in the past and include something that is going to be helpful, useful for them to use, read or understand. Then over the next 4 to 6 weeks develop your ‘referral package’ and start to use it. Take yourself out of your comfort zone and take action….because if you don’t someone will and what will that mean to your business in the years to come.
