Signed my first corporate lease today and boy was it for some huge money. They signed a lease for 3 months that was close to double what a 12 month lease term was. That should boost our revenue this quarter by a ton. It’s honestly like having another unit to […]

As the last week in my internship my boss is making sure I have the opportunity to learn everything I can. Today we’re going through some deposit accounting that needs to be done to return security deposits for people that moved out last week. We go through the units and […]

Today is the day of my community event for my property. I created the community event and we went with root beer floats! Thus far, all I’ve done today is whip up root beer floats for everyone and it’s going great!

We caught a tenant today stealing electricity from the hallway. We have already served him with a non renewal letter, and is set to move out at the end of the month. The eviction process wouldn’t be fast enough to get him moved out sooner. To end the theft of […]

We finally caught the person who had been painting outside one of our building entrances. His paint splattered onto the building and was never cleaned on numerous occasions. The tenant wasn’t the best tenant in the world, so we decided to hit him with a non renewal.

I worked on this previous Saturday and we ran into a hot water emergency. I had to connect with the on-call maintenance member and illustrate the problem with him. It took a while to convey the whole situation but he responded very promptly. We had the emergency handled in no […]

Before the residents move in we have a checklist to go through to make sure they feel at home and that it’s clean. We prepare their welcome home letter, comprise a box of goodies as a gift, and do a final inspection of the unit to make sure it is […]

I helped file paperwork for some late payments this month. After a certain period, the outstanding balances need to get sent in for eviction processing. The residents can still pay before the eviction but they pay an attorney’s fee after we process the legal paperwork.

I did my first charges after move out for the security deposits. I worked off our sheets on the prices but I decided myself how much the actual work was worth in dollars. The room I reviewed was a decent amount of extra work to make ready for move in. […]

I’ve had unfortunate luck with my own water heater in my apartment. I had to call the maintenance guy and together he taught me all about water heaters. It was very funny to replace my own water heater on the Sunday before 4th of July. My showers are finally hot […]
