Asset Management

Multifamily asset management from people who run apartments.

Multifamily asset management for owners whose buildings are run by another company, or who want a second set of eyes on their own. We read the reports your manager sends, check them against the rent roll and the budget, and tell you what is working, what is not and what to ask for. We run apartments every day, so we know which questions get real answers.

The problem

The monthly report says what the manager wants it to say

Most owners get a packet every month and no one to read it for them. Occupancy looks fine while delinquency creeps up, a renovation runs over budget one invoice at a time, and the budget is set by the same company it measures. Property management runs the building. Asset management makes sure it is run for your goals.

What we do

How we handle asset management

Monthly asset review

Each month we read the manager's financials, rent roll and delinquency report, and send you a short asset report: what changed, what it means and what we asked the manager about.

Budget and NOI reviews

We review the annual budget before you approve it and track results against it through the year, line by line. When NOI moves, we find out why. Our guide on how to increase NOI shows the levers we look at.

Oversight of your manager

We set the questions, follow up on the answers and hold the manager to the agreement. When the problem is the manager, we say so, and help you decide between a fix and a change.

Capital and renovation plans

We review capital projects and value-add scopes before money is spent, then check cost and rent results against the plan as the work goes.

Hold, sell or refinance

We model the options from the real operating numbers and give you a recommendation with the reasoning. Our free hold, sell or refinance calculator shows the framework.

How it works

A clear plan from day one.

  1. 1

    Learn the property and your goals

    Your hold period, return targets, debt terms and what you want from the building. Asset management starts from your goals, not from what the manager reports.

  2. 2

    Set the baseline

    We read the management agreement, the budget, the last twelve months of reports and the rent roll, and list what we would watch.

  3. 3

    Review every month

    We read each report as it arrives, ask the manager what we need to and send you a short summary.

  4. 4

    Act on what we find

    Budget changes, capital decisions, a conversation with the manager, or a recommendation to hold, sell or refinance.

Questions

Multifamily asset management questions

What is multifamily asset management?
Multifamily asset management is overseeing an apartment property as an investment: setting the strategy, reviewing the manager's results and making capital and sale decisions. Property management runs the building day to day; asset management makes sure it is run for the owner's goals.
Who hires a multifamily asset management firm?
Owners whose buildings another company manages, owners who live far from their property, and investment groups that want an independent read on their manager. Our article on asset management vs property management explains the split.
Can you be the asset manager if another company manages the property?
Yes. That is the most common setup. We work with your manager's reports and do not need to take over the building.
Do you offer multifamily asset management outside Reno?
Yes. Multifamily asset management works from reports and calls, so the property can be anywhere in the US. Our market knowledge is deepest in Northern Nevada, and we say where our local edge ends.
What do you need to start?
The management agreement, the current budget, the last twelve months of financials and a current rent roll. We start with what you have and list what to ask the manager for.
Will you try to take over management of my property?
Only if you ask. Many owners keep their manager and use us to oversee the work. If you want us to manage a Northern Nevada building as well, we can discuss that separately.

How to Increase NOI on a Multifamily Property

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.
