As a property manager, you rely on your team to create the best possible results for your properties and your company as a whole. From maintenance to marketing to sales, different team members handle different aspects of the property. 

But are you training them well enough? One common problem in the field is assuming that just hiring someone with some experience in their area is all it takes to succeed. The reality is that going further and really training your team will lead to a greatly improved bottom line. Let’s look at some of the key things that highlight just why this is. 
 

•    Training your team helps them understand just what you expect from them. Even if they have years of education and experience in their field, they still don’t fully know what it is that you’re looking for – what kind of performance you’re looking for. Initial training can help them be sure that they’re providing you with the best results. 
 

•    You likely have your own unique guidelines and rules in place. If your team doesn’t fully understand what those are, it could mean that they aren’t going to live up to the standards you’ve set. This in turn means that things can fall apart to some degree and that you’ll lose profits. 


•    Training also helps improve retention. Hiring new employees costs money, and when you work to retain the employees you have it translates to lower costs, which in turn means that you get a better profit margin at the end of the quarter. 
 

•    Your properties are unique, and it’s likely that you have a clear understanding regarding certain steps or tips that can speed up results or lead to better ones. Training your employees helps ensure that they are aware of these shortcuts or tips as well, which means that you’ll get better overall results from them.
