6 Tedious Property Management Task In The Multifamily Industry

PHILADELPHIA - Jan. 20, 2016 - PRLog -- For most property managers, the number one task that takes the most time from their day varies.  Based on the statistics of an quarterly survey, The Schwartz Real Estate Insurance Research Center found that property managers spend on an average of 26 hours per week solving problems that arise from residents. That’s roughly 10x times more frequent than the average engagement observed from traditional property managers.

The feedback from over 5,000 participants has demonstrated the tedious process of insurance issues can sometimes cut into the day-to-day activities of property managers the most. Here are the highlights from the latest reports:

• Marketing        18%
• Maintenance        27%
• Residents Move In/Out     13%
• Insurance Issues       30%
• Leasing          7%
• Calls & Emails    5%

Many property managers are seeking better options, through specific technologies, negotiating with different vendors, or hiring more staff to accommodate the high demands of their residents.

“At Woodlyn Schwartz, we understand that some of the most tedious tasks in a multifamily situation --- comes from solving the problems that arise from residents, neighbors, maintenance, and insurance issues. None of this can be automated. It takes a real person” said Artie Woodlyn III, Founder and CEO at Woodlyn Schwartz. Many complexities of managing multifamily properties with multiple systems, numerous vendors, and manual hand-offs can create errors and delays that can cause harm to a company’s reputation.
