Apartment Building Management · 20 to 80 units

Apartment Building Management for 20 to 80 Unit Communities

A building of 20 to 80 units is big enough to need a real operating system and small enough that every decision shows up in the numbers. We run these buildings for owners who want occupancy up, costs down and rent where it should be.

Who this is for

Owners who want the work done right

For owners and investors with a mid-size apartment building, often a value-add acquisition, a family-held asset or a building that has outgrown self-management. You may have a manager who is adequate and not improving the result.

The challenge

What gets in the way

Too big to run from a kitchen table

At this size you need staffing, process and software. Without them, the building runs on whoever is available.

Too small for a big on-site team

The budget does not support a full staff. You need coverage that is lean and well organized.

Value-add opportunity left on the table

Mid-size buildings often carry upside in rent and expenses. Without a plan, it stays unrealized.

Expenses that drift

Vendors, utilities and repairs creep up when nobody checks. A few percentage points of operating expense add up.

Our approach

How we run it

A leasing process and marketing built together

We run marketing that raises demand and a tour and follow-up process that converts it, so the building fills on schedule.

Lean, efficient staffing

Shared, coordinated resources cover leasing, maintenance and the office without extra overhead.

Budgets and expense control

We set an operating budget, track it monthly and challenge vendors, so expenses follow the plan.

Renovation with a payback

Upgrades are scoped around what the market pays for, phased by unit and tracked against results.

Owner reporting with substance

Monthly reports show occupancy, collections, rent trends and expenses, plus our recommendations.

Questions

Apartment Building Management: questions

What does apartment building management cost to run well?
Apartment building management is priced to the size and scope of the building, so we quote after seeing it. We would rather scope accurately than guess, and we explain what each fee covers.
How do you manage a 20 to 80 unit building efficiently?
We use a lean staffing model, shared resources and software to keep overhead low. Leasing, maintenance and accounting each run on a defined process.
Can you help me raise rents without losing residents?
Yes, by testing prices against live comparables and timing increases to renewals. Strong service gives residents a reason to accept a fair increase.
Do you handle renovations in an occupied building?
Yes. We sequence unit turns, communicate with residents and track the cost and rent of each renovated unit so you can see what the work earned.
What reports will I get?
You get a monthly report covering occupancy, collections, income, expenses and maintenance, along with our notes on what to do next.
Is a mid-size building better with a property manager or an asset manager?
Most need a property manager who also thinks like an owner. Our article on asset management versus property management explains where the two roles differ.

NOI sets what your building is worth, so every dollar you add to it is worth far more than a dollar. Here is where the real gains hide, on both the income and expense sides.
