Property Management Jobs

"Property Management is like being the mayor of a small city..."

Property management involves the daily operations at the individual property level, and can include marketing and promotion, tenant screening and selection, managing rent, coordination of the maintenance and repair function, and acting as liaison between owners, investors, vendors, and tenants. The duties and expectations of property managers has grown over time, and increasingly involves a comprehensive understanding of the asset or assets in a real estate portfolio and the responsibility to lease and management to maximize returns and insure the real estate's long-term viability.

Looking to the Future

Property managers will always have a place in real estate. Every asset needs someone to manage expenses, collect rent, and provide customer service. With that said, future property managers may be asked to provide higher level services to owners. Wall Street has become a major player in the real estate industry. Securitization and corporate ownership have increased the level of scrutiny and sophistication required at the property management level. Based on experience, property managers can assist in development by suggesting layouts and plans that maximize efficiency and lower replacement costs. They can provide detailed financial analysis of the property and forecast trends in the market as well. As property management becomes more sophisticated, barriers to entry will increase, but it will always be a profession that provides opportunity at the entry level position.
