Technology is becoming more and more essential, with some 71% of property managers saying they\u2019ve increased the number of virtual showings they give, and another 43% embracing digital transactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A majority of property managers cite three main outcomes they\u2019re focused on, including increasing or stabilizing occupancy rates, collecting rents, and leasing vacant properties.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Just over 80% of resident property management firms say that at least some of their staff are working remotely. This has led to new ways they\u2019re engaging with residents. In-person meetings are more limited, and digital interactions are becoming more common, though tasks such as leasing, maintenance and collecting the rent are more challenging as a result, the survey found.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To counter these challenges, property management firms are looking to setup online portals to handle maintenance requests, and doing more bulk communications to keep their residents up to date. And 87% of property management firms say they expect bulk emails and text messages to remain even after the pandemic passes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, property managers say they\u2019re upbeat about the future of the industry. Some 66% of firms say they have a positive outlook for their business, with just 4% negative and the remaining 20% neutral.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/realtybiznews.com\/how-covid-19-is-affecting-property-managers\/98759026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How COVID-19 is Affecting Property Managers<\/a> by Mike Wheatley | Realty Biz News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Property managers and landlords have had to move fast to adapt to the new normal of the COVID-19 pandemic, and their new policies, designed to keep associates and residents safe, &hellip;
