Absolutely. Not everyone has the temperament, time, energy, professional network, or experience to be a property manager – particularly a San Antonio property manager, since all cities are unique. It takes a lot of work to manage a rental home. Not to mention that many people want real estate to be a passive investment.

The property manager has three primary responsibilities.

1. Protecting the best interest of the property owner: Mynd protects your investment by properly maintaining your property, choosing qualified tenants, following the law, and making the best use of tax deductions.
2. Protecting the best interests of the tenant: By providing the tenant quality service, Mynd ensures that you maintain an uninterrupted positive cash-flow with minimal losses due to vacancies.

Following the law: By following the law, Mynd protects the landlord from losses, tenants from harm and maximizes savings using tax deductions.

Typically, an owner or investor can't provide the combined expertise and digital tools that Mynd can provide. This includes:

• Digital leasing
• Legal and compliance
• Online portal
• Quality resident screening
• Financial reporting
• Electronic rent collection
• Dedicated portfolio manager
• Repairs, inspections, and maintenance
• 24/7 Emergency Support
• And more.

Expertise and level-headedness are crucial to good property management. You need to know how to talk with people, negotiate prices, and anticipate challenges. 

You also need to maintain a professional, respectful, and amiable demeanor no matter what's going on. Property managers see it all, from tenants excited to find a new home to residents in challenging circumstances facing eviction. Through it all, property managers need to know what to do and how to do it calmly.

If a tenant refuses to leave, then Mynd will handle the entire eviction process, from serving the initial eviction notice to eviction court to the day of the eviction when we supervise the removal of the tenant and their belongings. 

We’ll make sure to get the rental property turnover to start ASAP to minimize vacancy. We also perform a thorough tenant screening process to reduce the likelihood of eviction in the first place.

There are many real estate management companies in the San Antonio area, and there are also many real estate agents who try to manage properties on a part-time basis. You must conduct your due diligence to ensure you find the best San Antonio property manager fit for your investment property. 

Here are a few best practices for choosing a property manager:

• Ask for references.
• Request internal customer satisfaction scores.
• Check online reviews from several sources.
• Have a conversation with each potential candidate.

It is crucial to understand how a property manager would react to particular scenarios. With that in mind, have a handful of questions specific to their real-world experience. 

• How would they deal with a tenant who is regularly late with rent? 
• What would they do if they got a call early in the morning that a frozen pipe had burst? 
• What gestures would they perform to increase tenant retention? 

A property manager has to be ready for everything, but they also need to know who to go to when they need help.

Mynd handles all maintenance from fire prevention to rental property turnover to seasonal maintenance.
