Tip #2: Be Dependable and Available

Being a dependable person is extremely beneficial to being a successful property manager.

It’s important to respond to phone calls and e-mails in a timely manner. If you are managing numerous properties you will be very busy, but being available when owners and/or tenants need to speak with you is essential. This builds trust within your business relationship and makes your client feel confident that they can rely on you.

You certainly have a life outside of work. There is no need to give out your personal cell phone number. As long as they have your e-mail address and you try to keep yourself available as much as possible during regular business hours, that is enough.
Time management and organization are also a huge part of being dependable. Don’t spread yourself too thin. Make sure you schedule meetings accordingly in order to meet your clients’ needs.

Lastly, a great quality to possess is people skills. You will be working with numerous people and it’s your job to keep them satisfied. Inevitably, you will encounter some unhappy folks. Try your best to give them a positive customer service experience.
