STARTING A VIRTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT ASSISTANT COMPANY

[Elicia Boyd]

Hey Everyone,

I am thinking about providing a virtual property management assistant services. I think this service would be idea for someone who perfer to spend more time inquiring property while I handle office duties and be liaison between Vendors & Tenants. 

My 24/7 Service Would Include:

-Review Maintence Request

-Schedule Vendors

-Coordinate Between Vendors & Tenants

-Maintence Follow Ups After Work Completed

-Update Your Property Management Software

-Pay Vendors

-Basic Accounting

-Process Prospective Tenants Applications

-Notary Services

-Other Administrative Duties Upon Request

By me being virtual I can provide this service to people outside my local parameter. Do you think this service is indemand? And what would you pay as a flat fee for this service? Please don't hesitate to give any advice. I have 1 year experience of property management experience.  But in my eyes I'm still a newbie.

Elicia,

I like your idea as it relates to my personal situation.  I own 4 rental properties (so far) and I self manage while working a demanding full time job.  I've spoken with full service PM companies but have not hired one because I don't feel that our goals are aligned...they make their money when they turnover tenants and by marking up service calls, while I want tenants to stay for multiple years with no service calls.  I'm in construction so I have a team of handyman, plumber, HVAC, electrician, painter, etc.  

The services you listed above are exactly the things that consume my time and take me away from other more profitable things.  I will send you a message to continue the conversation.
