Income and Expenses
With income properties it is important to remember that all of your revenue, and therefore all of your profit, comes from one source, your tenants. At the same time, all of your expenses are caused directly and indirectly by those same tenants. Good tenants pay on time, cause minimum wear and tear and when it comes time, give proper notice to allow re-renting without a loss. Poor tenants pay late, or not at all, can cause expensive repairs and legal fees and frequently move suddenly, often leaving a damaged untidy unit behind.
Tenant Selection Systems
Consequently, selecting tenants and tenant relations is of a paramount importance to successful management. Because managing real estate is all we do, we have developed exclusive systems and procedures for every aspect of property management including; applications, screening and leasing procedures which are designed to filter out those less desirable tenants and create an environment more protective for the owner and property.
Maximize and Reduce
Realty-Pro systems are designed to maximize your income by maximizing rent, reducing vacancies, reducing non-payments and reduce wear and tear and keeping expenses to a minimum by careful monitoring, maintaining equipment and offering suggestions for the reduction of operating expenses. As a result the net income after tax is better with Realty-Pro than without.
Maintaining your Asset
Income real estate that is clean, well maintained, attractive and is occupied by respectable, financially responsible tenants on leases, who pay regularly and inflict minimum wear and tear on the property, will always be easier and cheaper to insure, refinance, and eventually sell for the maximum profit.
