Is Property Management Your Next Chapter?

June 7, 2021

Have you always been curious about property management? Does this sound like a service you would like to provide for your customers? Have you thought about turning the page and starting a new chapter in your real estate career? If so, property management is worth a second look. It can really enhance your sales career.

While perhaps not the most glamorous branch of real estate, property management professionals are indispensable in the field. They are sales agents that have dedicated themselves to a specialty of Real Estate, which requires unique skills and enhanced education. No two days are alike, your management portfolios provide a steady income stream, and you are trained to offer a service not many sales agents possess. It is a career choice that demands flexibility, attention to detail, patience and great follow through. For those that are up to the challenge, it provides endless opportunities for success.

Experience has taught me, however, that property management divisions are not always adequately supported in many companies. When it is not taken seriously by the Brokerage, an agent that makes this career choice spends a lot of time resolving unnecessary trouble, feeling frustrated, and working through endless confusion. It is impossible to grow and prosper when your daily objective is trying to figure out the steps needed to service clients and stay out of legal trouble. It is important to ensure you are working for a company that values its property managers. That’s where we come in.

I have said many times over my 20+ years with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Properties Group that I would not do this job anywhere else. We are the gold standard of how Property Management should be handled. We have the tools that promote success, offer outstanding education, and provide marketing materials and backend support that is critical for your success.

A career in Real Estate doesn’t always mean traditional sales. Focusing on property management might sound daunting, but it can be exciting if you’re working with a company that devotes an entire division to offering the most professional property management available. Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Properties Group is a fantastic team to grow with!

If Property Management is a career choice you are seriously considering- we need to talk!
