Are You Running Your Property Management Business—Or Is It Running You?

Are You Running Your Property Management Business—Or Is It Running You?

Your business should work for you, not the other way around. Stop drowning in tasks and start running a real company with these simple tips.

Do you own a property management company, or are you just working for a demanding job? When you're running everything on your own, it might feel like you're in control. However, the truth is you're just taking on too much. At that point, it stops being a business and starts feeling more like a job.

The real test is this: if you stepped away for a while, would things still run smoothly? If your answer is no, then that’s a clear sign something needs to change. Here are two simple ways to help you get started.

"You want to build a team that can carry some of your company’s weight for you."

Transition to true ownership. Gradually step out of that “doing it all” mode by getting leadership support or hiring great and reliable people who can take on specific tasks. You want to build a team that can carry some of that weight for you.

Shift your focus. Once you’ve taken a few things off your plate, you can now shift your focus and start working in other areas for your properties. These mainly include keeping costs low and bringing in income. If you want to move away from being stuck in the day-to-day, that’s where your energy should go.
