How Can You Actually Save Money on Managing Your Rental Property?
Managing rental properties comes with many challenges. As your business grows, those challenges often get bigger and more complex. There are many moving parts from scheduling housekeeping and staying on top of repairs and maintenance to marketing properties and creating positive guest experiences.
Sometimes, it seems like there aren’t enough hours in the day or hands on-deck to manage it all. It can be overwhelming for even the most seasoned property managers. However, with the right tools, strategy, and team, you can ease your workload while increasing revenue. These tips can help you save money on property management without sacrificing quality.
1. Invest in actionable data.
When you are more informed about your properties and guests, you can make better decisions. For example, knowing when you need to perform routine maintenance can save you from an expensive and preventable repair in the future, or worse, a bad review!
Gain insights from guest booking behaviors, online reviews, and other data. It can help you improve the overall process and create more satisfying stays.
2. Develop a mindset for efficiency.
Time is money. To survive in the fast-paced digital world, property managers need to focus on efficiency and innovation, while still maintaining high standards of quality. Luckily, there are countless tools at your disposal to help you automate and manage many critical but repetitive tasks.
For one, the process of creating property listings is essential to attract guests, but it can also be tedious and time-consuming. With BookingTeam.com, property managers don’t need to spend hours creating listings on multiple sites. Instead, listings can instantly be shared with hundreds of rental sites, including TripAdvisor, HomeAway, AirBnB and many more. With more time, you can focus on what drives your business–amazing guest experiences.

I have never hired management in 15 years of having tenants, 95 percent of millionaires go rich off real estate. It's a nice pay check even if you have to fix heating and toilets time to time :) Hand pick your own tenants like I do, I"m very happy with it, Beats a regular job all day long :)
...to Colorado. We're pretty much equidistant to everything
As long as you can sell it with profit. Otherwise it's a no go.
There was a time when having rentals was more reward than risk. You only have to see people once a month unless a major repair was needed and you could pay off a mortgage property with very little head or back ache. Those days are pretty much gone. I would be terrified every time I had to bring a new tenant in. No thank you.
Nothing to fear but fear itself, I bought homes for 90 percent off in 2009 crash, paid cash and I"m on slate to do it again with the next crash. Pick tenants that need you more than you need them. I talk about that on my page RE, real estate niches. True freedom is being in real estate, it's where millionaires are made. HANG IN THERE,,,,,,, join me in the journey
impressive... managing my rental property is a nightmare on not elm street
do you mind if i ask why is it a nightmare ? bad tenants perhaps ?
hmm
totally agree with you. it is tedious and time consuming.
Your post could come in handy to my friend who has several renting properties in Oxford...he was recently complaining about not having enough time to handle all the tenant's requests .
Thanks for sharing these tips. Voted, followed and resteemed.
That would be great. I am sure he would very happy with our services. Thanks @recreator !
Landlords need to be careful how they handle tenants, Not to nice and not too mean. We aren't on call, if heating goes out give us a day, have a team of repair people who work cheap and arrive fast, Once you have a team, it's easy. I have went 1 years without hearing a thing from tenants. The pay is awesome and the hours are minimal,
Hello booking team, just a question, what services are you providing? I am from oversea and maybe interested in investing property in another country, is that doable? Also what is the rental yield and the management fee is like? Many thanks.
Hi @wikinshui thanks for your comment. We help hosts of holiday rentals (apartments, houses, boats) manage their reservations 24/7. That way they have all the best tools optimally managed by their own personal team. It's a collaboration platform so very easy to use. And the hosts can then focus on their guests satisfaction again, since they save loads of time.

I hae been in the rental game for 11 years and I have found that the best way to minimize your risk after placing a tenant, is to have a good relationship with them and treat them as human beings, and not some engine that makes you money.
Does BookingTeam.com accepts crypto to help make rental property management simpler? Wonder if there is a rental management where cryptopreneurs, steemians, bitcoiners and others could pay for everyday use. Rent and management can be one of this to help lift crypto's values
Hi @cryptopreneur great idea, we support payouts through Uphold and also with crypto to a Shakepay card for instance. :)
so Uphold is this: https://uphold.com/en/developer/blog/posts/api-changes/breaking-change-regarding-crypto-addresses-on-uphold-cards
and Shakepay card is this one: https://shakepay.co (supports dash, ETH, and BTC)
sweet! Live as a cryptopreneur and make the world know that there are people that pays by crypto...and if they don't accept crypto, then witness crypto turn to debit to pay as go. Hope it accepts steem as well soon :)
Another great post😊
It seems so daunting but thanks for the informative information and addition supplements.
Property manager will not work for most landlord, if you want to own rental u have to manage yourself and dont buy rental out of state, buy it inly when u can drive to it if there are problems.
