6 Common Property Management Responsibilities Malcolm (2018)
- rent responsibilities
- attracting tenants
- screening tenants
- maintenance and repairs
- knowledge of landlord-tenant laws
- Managing the Budget and Maintaining Financial Records
As the supervisor of day-to-day activities, property managers are also responsible
for maintaining the budget for the building and keeping detailed records. Managers
are often given a set budget for the building they need to operate within, and it is
up to them to use their discretion to make improvements, order repairs, and keep
an emergency fund. The property manager may also be asked to file taxes for the
property or help the owner during tax season.
- managing the budget and maintaining financial records
Property managers are often the first line of contact in an eviction or dispute, as well as
in the general legal functioning of a rental property. In this role, property managers need
to know the legal processes for screening a tenant, handling security deposits,
terminating leases, eviction, safety compliance, and more. A good property manager will
have an in-depth understanding of the landlord-tenant laws and be able to carry out their
responsibilities in the way these laws dictate
- knowledge of landlord-tenant laws
The property manager is responsible for keeping the property in a safe and
habitable condition. This includes maintenance, repairs, and the updating of
facilities like laundry and parking.
