5 Best Tips For Buying an Investment Property

Property Management fees are on the rise and vary considerably state to state and across localities. Many Investors are choosing to take back control of their properties and self manage them to help increase yield and sometimes due to their Property Manager not performing as expected. so Managing Your Own Investment Property has become the matter of great concern.

While ALL property Management expenses are tax deductible in most cases, the quality of the service can differ greatly and a lazy or ineffective Property Manager can cost you thousands of Dollars.

How to buy an investment property?

Due to the complex legislation that regulates the industry I highly recommend that if you are unhappy with your current Property Manager that you simply find a new one and work through the transition. Ask for references, and try and find a Property Manager that you can relate to easily, Take a look at their rental lists and see how long it is taking to tenant them. While this isn’t an exclusive measure of competence, if you are not seeing the weekly rent discounted after being advertised for 4 weeks consistently it may be a sign that the PM is not in constant contact with the owner talking to them and giving them feedback. Read ADS from the office, you can quickly establish which agents are making a genuine effort in their descriptions and which ones are completely disengaged. Be wary of any Property Manager that mentions things like “we treat the property like it is ours” mmmmm  . No one is going treat your property like you…..its just that simple.
