How can landlords improve their rental property management using automation?

In the real estate market, there are both large and small property management companies, as well as individual landlords who rent out their own properties and manage them themselves.

There are various reasons why owners do not want to entrust the management to a real estate management company, or they lose trust in the manager and change it.

What do landlords want?

Firstly, maximum profit from rented/leased properties and increasing property values. This can be achieved through effective, sustainable and development-oriented management of your property/assets. Secondly, a certain stability - low turnover of tenants / lessees, predictable income and solving as few problem situations as possible. In addition, the desire to spend as little time as possible on property management.

What consumes landlords' time?

The list of things and activities that landlords are busy with when managing their property is quite extensive:

• Finding tenants by placing advertisements and evaluating potential tenants.
• Drafting contracts and other acts.
• Preparation of monthly rent/lease bills and utility bills.
• Sending invoices.
• Collection and processing of meter readings.
• Reminder to tenants about submitting meter readings and paying bills.
• Monitoring contract and other deadlines.
• Resolving various problems including technical ones.
• Finding reliable contractors and workers.
• Inventory management.
• Following up on the payment of bills.
• Cash flow accounting and analysis.
• Storage of various files, documents and notes related to the property.
• And more...

Of course, it is possible to entrust the work to a paid employee or a company. This probably means relatively high costs. But is it possible to achieve more convenient and faster property management with lower costs?

Depending on the number and size of properties you own, for some it may be like a full-time job, while for others it will only take a few hours a week or a month.

No matter how much time it takes for everyone, it is possible to facilitate property management by using modern technical solutions and automating repetitive actions, such as invoicing, monitoring contract deadlines, remind tenants of meter reading submission.
