Property managers are key players in getting the best deals for their investor clients. But it’s not only about the sale; there many are other ways that property managers help their sponsors maximize their earning potential on any given property. So, joining us today with some important advice on how to use property managers correctly is the Owner of Avant Garde, Anthony DeAugustine, and his Vice President, Bob Myers. After gaining a sense of the properties that our guests manage, we learn about investor behaviors surrounding value adds, whether mid-century rentals will reach a point where big renovations are justified, and why the Phoenix housing market is not on its deathbed as portrayed by mainstream media and analysts. Then, we get into the meat of our conversation as Anthony and Bob explain how they help their clients with preliminary evaluations, why construction and renovation costs matter, what ‘loss to lease’ and ‘contract service’ means, and why you should always have a replacement reserve fund. We end our discussion by taking a deeper look at value adds for mid-century, 50-unit properties, and our guests share some incredible advice for how first-timers and investors who want to scale up should approach Avant Garde and other property managers.
