Do You Need a Property Manager?

So you’re probably wondering if you need a property manager. Not every rental property does. But it's a good idea to think about your choices if managing your home is giving you trouble or stress. The 2022 Property Owners' Report by Buildium sheds light on the requirements of landlords. Their analysis revealed that between 2019 and 2022, rental owners' demand for property managers' services increased by 8%. In other words, property owners like you are more dependent than ever on property managers. 

Let's first talk about the specific duties of MF Cashflow Property Management as a property manager. We'll then get into some of the factors that can influence your decision to hire us!  


What Does  MF Cashflow Property Management Do?

MF Cashflow wears many hats. Our duties will ultimately depend on your specific needs, but we handle all the duties involved with managing an investment property, from day-to-day operations to finding new tenants. 

Everyday Tasks

When it comes to managing a property, you’ve probably noticed that everyday tasks can add up.

Maintenance

Hopefully, your properties won't require any significant repairs. Inevitably, though, one of your tenants will need a plumber or electrician at some point. MF Cashflow will be the recipient of late-night phone calls for maintenance requests. Moreover, we can quickly handle all maintenance needs thanks to a fully vetted list of contractors at their disposal!

Finding Tenants

One of the more difficult aspects of being a property manager is finding tenants. Finding new tenants takes time, is frustrating, and is stressful. Researching comparable property rents, doing background and credit checks, obtaining references, preparing a new lease, and other tasks are all part of finding a tenant. And what if your selection of a tenant doesn't work out? The skills and knowledge required to make this process productive and efficient are possessed by MF Cashflow. Renting out your property to trustworthy tenants will happen rapidly, increasing the return on your investment. We take great pride in screen tenants for the long term so you're CashFlowing with no vacancies!

Overseeing Capital Improvements 

Making occasional improvements to your property is one method to ensure that it stays profitable. You can increase rent pricing while still attracting tenants if you make these simple improvements to your rental property. Mf Cashflow supervises the selection of contractors and any required construction. Additionally, we'll be able to create and stick to a budget for your capital improvements. We use in-house contractors to refresh your home and get it rent ready.
