What to Consider When Choosing Orange County Property to Manage

Jan 23, 2021 | Library

When choosing a property management company, you’re looking for a long-term, mutually beneficial relationship with a team you can trust. Your property managers have a direct impact on the care and maintenance of your property and the profitability of your rental investment.

So, what can property owners do to make sure they’re choosing the best property management company possible before signing up to work with them? Read on for some key indicators that show a property management company is at the top of its game.

Research and Technology

Real estate markets change frequently and, sometimes, drastically. Property management companies should have a finger on the pulse of the property market so they can make informed decisions about optimal rental prices for your properties.

This means conducting in-depth, regular research on the current state and predicted trends in the market. For example, Genuine Property Management provides detailed rental valuation reports to clients so you can compare your rent price with comparable properties in OC.

Similarly, the best in the business will leverage technology to streamline property management. With the right technology, tenants receive prompt attention and service through an online portal. Similarly, landlords save on costs by working with property managers who leverage technology to respond quickly to maintenance requests, advertise properties effectively, and process rental payments on time.

Experience Working with Orange County Properties

The rental market can look very different from one area of southern California to the next. Your property manager should have extensive experience dealing specifically with OC rental properties.

This means they can tell you:

  • What rent prices you can realistically expect to charge
  • Whether your property needs refurbishment or repairs to compete in the market
  • How long you can expect to wait to find a tenant

For example, at Genuine Property Management, we manage over 475 properties and growing—all within Orange County! So we know exactly what’s going on with rent prices, property availability, and demand in the local market.

Services Provided

Property management services are about much more than finding tenants and rent collection. The best in the business provide services to make all aspects of landlord responsibilities more efficient.

This encompasses professional photographs of your property, 3D virtual tours, repair surveys, detailed prospective tenants screening reports, collection services, and more.

At Genuine Property Management, you’ll get full service property management, along with your very own Owner Portal. There, you can securely access accounting records and end of year statements for your property.

Value and Affordability

Like any service, one of the most important things to consider is whether you’re truly getting value for your money. Rental properties are an investment that should work for you, and an affordable property manager keeps your investment profitable.

We provide month-by-month service instead of tying you into a long-term contract. We also conduct research every year to benchmark our pricing and services against the competition. After reviewing over 200 other property management companies in Orange County, we can be confident that our value is the best available.
