Palm Harbor property management is a challenging job. There are many instances where the owners have realized these challenges only after trying their hand at DIY property management.

Often, new owners mistaken property management to be straightforward and easy; on the contrary, it is full time, highly demanding job irrespective of whether one is concerned with a small commercial property or large multi-family rental units.

Some of biggest challenges faced in this field include:

  • Tenants not paying on time- Some tenants are also known to move out quietly in the middle of the night without having paid the rent for several months.
  • Property upkeep and maintenance- Majority of the times owners are known to complain regarding the lack of maintenance and the poor condition a property is left in after tenants have moved out. Tenants know that they are required to pay a fine, of even forgo their deposits when they have left the property in bad shape. However, they disregard such things and owners are left to deal with major renovations and maintenance.
  • Unruly, noisy tenants- Another complaint regarding tenants is the noise levels, disregard to privacy of neighbors, disputes, drunk and disorderly conduct etc. Owners are often unaware as to how to deal with such miscreants.
  • Evictions-Tenants may also reach their maximum number of warnings and may have to be evicted. Constantly defaulting on rents, property damage and destructions and unruly behavior can lead to this stage.

These are some of the major challenges that property owners may face in this business.
