The property manager's responsibilities include setting and collecting rent, managing maintenance requests, filling vacant units, and potentially setting the property's budget. Property managers often deal with properties that real estate investors don't live nearby or don't want to personally manage. Overall, their primary goal is to keep tenants happy and cared for. A management company also stays informed about local, state and federal laws and regulations related to rental properties. Property managers also keep the owner informed of any new compliance measures or regulatory changes affecting investment properties.
