Introduction

Property Management has a definite meaning within the real estate industry. Property management is the overseeing of the operation and maintenance of a property by someone other than the owner. A property manager acts as an agent to exercise executive supervision over a piece of real estate for an owner or owners in exchange for a fee. Consequently, the property manager's primary purpose is to maximize net income over the economic life of the property and/or to insure the efficient operation and maintenance of the property.

Property Management is a professional activity that assists owners in achieving their ownership investment objective through quality services. Some property managers act as consultants, recommending ways to maximize income, some are experts in the tax aspects of real estate investing or financing techniques, and some specialize in the management of multi-family housing, office buildings, shopping centers and industrial properties. The typical duties of a property manager are marketing and leasing space, tenant selection, operating and maintaining the property, collecting rents and keeping records.

The recognized professional in the field of property management is the CPM®, the Certified Property Manager® who is bound to his or her clients, employer and the public by a strict code of professional ethics. When you hire a property manager, think CPM. When you hire an on-site manager, think ARM®, Accredited Residential Manager®. If you are the principal of your real estate management firm, or the head of the property management department within your company, and have earned or are working on earning the CPM designation, you should consider accreditation as an AMO® -- Accredited Management Organization for your firm. If you are a property manager and are not currently a CPM, you should sign up as an Associate member. For professionals who provide valuable services and products to the property management industry, Friends of IREM is a perfect solution.
