Apartment and multifamily property management

What the work includes

Apartment managers run multifamily communities, from small buildings to large portfolios. The work includes leasing, renewals, resident relations, maintenance coordination, delinquency management, amenity operations, vendor oversight, budgeting and occupancy reporting. Larger communities may also need on-site staffing, marketing, capital planning and resident retention programs.

How fees usually work

Multifamily management fees are often a percentage of collected rent, but per-unit and flat-fee arrangements are common. Ask how the fee changes with occupancy, whether leasing bonuses or renewal fees apply, and how on-site staff, maintenance and marketing costs are handled. Compare the fee against the staffing and services provided.

What to ask before hiring

Ask about average days-to-lease, occupancy, renewal rates, maintenance response times, delinquency and eviction processes, resident retention programs and reporting. For larger assets, ask how the firm handles capital projects, vendor contracts, staffing and budget variances. Request a sample monthly owner report.
