Once you’ve become familiar with the details of the site and identified its assets and pain points, ran a few simulations, and made a few educated guesses, the decisions you’ve made in the pre construction phase will be put into practice. The focus shifts to refining the details, tracking progress, allocating resources, and managing problems as they arise.
For companies managing multiple properties, rooftops, pavement, landscaping and other big ticket real estate improvements go through cycles of routine maintenance, scheduled replacement, and emergency repairs. Performing these tasks quickly and efficiently is key to retaining good tenants and keeping the property owner happy.
In the highly competitive world of real estate, you need every advantage you can get when it comes to selling. Knowing your market and understanding the unique characteristics of the local neighbourhoods are good places to start. Efficiently managing your resources and administrative duties can also help optimize profit margins.
Property assessments are a routine exercise when there are changes to property ownership, legal description, where building or demolition permits were taken out, classification or zoning amendments, among other reasons. Correct value assessments are necessary to calculate property taxes that share the tax burden fairly among landowners, and provide residents with a predictable expense.
