The Property Management Equation

The Krauss Organization believes effective commercial property management is central to maximizing property value for the owner/investor. Included within our property management philosophy are the leasing and marketing disciplines required to provide the property owner with a complete synergistic and personalized approach to maximizing property valuation.

Our property management services are personalized and systematic, and include components such as diligent rental collection efforts, tenant satisfaction and retention programs, comprehensive budget and pro forma production, preventative maintenance programs, rehabilitation and construction management, responsive service vendor management and oversight, full-service property accounting and financial reporting, and lease and contract negotiation expertise.

Property management is people providing service to people. The Krauss Organization's philosophy is to identify and employ experienced management and support staff, personnel focused on providing service to the client. In our business, the client is both the owner/investor and the tenant. The property management department is headed up by a Certified Property Manager with over 15 years of experience managing office buildings, office parks with flex space, shopping centers, warehouse/distribution facilities, and industrial property. We utilize the Timberline Property Management Accounting System. Our documentation and reporting delivers accurate, on-time reports that are formatted to the client¹s specifications.

Our goal is to focus our management expertise to add value to the investment property by increasing its net operating income. The leasing program focuses on achieving optimum occupancy by obtaining qualified tenants at the maximum attainable rental rate based on local market conditions. Diligent operational management focuses on providing quality service to the tenants and achieving cost-effective property operating expenses. The end result is an increase in net operating income and, therefore, a higher capitalized property value.
