Course Summary
Property management is crucial in the world of real estate. Effective property management will ensure that all tenants' needs are met, that the building remains fully compliant with legal regulations, and that finances are accurately managed.
Property management should be conducted with the tenants' needs in mind. Professionals should regularly investigate the physical buildings to guarantee maximum health and safety and organise regular facility maintenance and management. A building must comply with national property laws to be legally habitable and usable.
Furthermore, property management strongly focuses on the tenants and builds a positive relationship with them. Building trust between management and tenants will better guarantee that they remain compliant with their agreements and overall property rules. As with the nature of humans, conflict and tension are bound to arise, and property managers and professionals must be equipped to impartially deal with any conflict and ensure tenants feel safe and comfortable within the property.
