Property Management Overview
Goal-Oriented Management with a Proactive Approach
Feldman Ruel Property Management is focused on helping its clients to optimize the return on commercial investment properties while positioning those assets to achieve maximum value. Originally established by market leaders in the brokerage of sub-institutional commercial investment properties in the Washington, D.C. MSA, Feldman Ruel is unlike a traditional management company in that it understands all phases of the property ownership lifecycle and how to create a seamless and profitable transition between each phase.
Feldman Ruel strives to create and implement proactive management strategies that allow our clients to address the issues that will inevitably arise during the course of ownership before turning into serious problems. This results in more manageable long-term repair and maintenance costs as well as a higher level of tenant satisfaction.
Key Differentiators
What Separates Feldman Ruel from the Other Property Management Companies?
Technology
Feldman Ruel uses industry-leading management software that incorporates complete accounting and reporting capabilities, intuitive marketing and mobile tools, along with comprehensive maintenance and property management resources. This allows the firm to pool and organize client property data and tasks into a central location and maximize operational efficiency.
Marketing
By combining institutional-level marketing materials and software that interfaces directly with leasing platforms, Feldman Ruel provides its clients with a distinct competitive advantage in its ability to source quality tenants. The capabilities of the firm’s dedicated, industry-leading marketing & design team allows Feldman Ruel to produce materials that properly highlight the features, benefits, and amenities of each property and its individual units.
Fee Structure
Feldman Ruel recognizes that there is no such thing as a standard management assignment. The firm understands the unique operational challenges associated with retail, office, industrial, multifamily, mixed-use, and other property types. As such, Feldman Ruel evaluates each property individually and calculates a fee based on property type, use, location, and other factors. Feldman Ruel provides its clients with a straightforward fee structure with no maintenance mark-ups on 3rd party work and no hidden fees.
For Owners
Why Owners Choose Feldman Ruel PM
We offer unparalleled property management services designed to protect your asset, maximize returns, and add value to your investment. Trust our practical experience in delivering exceptional service to help achieve your goals.
Feldman Ruel Property Management offers full-service leasing for multifamily properties under management. The firm leverages industry-leading software that draws property and unit data straight from the clients property profile and submits it directly to several of the top rental marketplace websites. This maximizes asset exposure to prospective tenants which ultimately increases rental income as well as the probability of securing quality tenants.
The Feldman Ruel Property Management team recognizes how critical identifying quality residential tenants is to the long-term performance of any multifamily or mixed-use asset. As such, we facilitate diligent background checks on every prospective residential tenant well before any lease is ever signed. Proactively identifying potential credit risks such as prior evictions, late-or-missed payments, accumulated debt, insufficient income-to-expense ratios, bankruptcy declarations, and criminal history is yet another way that Feldman Ruel gives its clients peace of mind while also maximizing return on equity.
Tenants of properties under Feldman Ruel management are able to pay rent using a traditional paper check, eCheck, Cashpay, a computer, or a mobile app on their cell phone or tablet. By offering tenants numerous payment methods, the firm is able to eliminate many of the various administrative hurdles which traditionally result in late or missed rental payments. In the event an eviction becomes necessary, Feldman Ruel assists its clients by leveraging its comprehensive knowledge base of the jurisdiction’s eviction process as well as its relationships with local professionals including some of the area’s top landlord/tenant attorneys.
The Feldman Ruel property management team appreciates the importance of ensuring properties are maintained in good physical condition in order to maximize revenue generation. As many owners have experienced, a single major capital expenditure can have a devastating effect on the bottom-line of an otherwise highly performing asset. While capital expenditures are inevitable during the ownership life cycle, unless directed otherwise by the client, the firm’s goal is to be proactive in the care of all properties under management through regular inspections, maintenance, and necessary repairs to minimize these long-term costs. With no maintenance mark-ups on 3rd party work and multiple quotes for every service contract, clients of Feldman Ruel can rest assured that interests are aligned and that their assets are in good hands.
By utilizing the firm’s proprietary database which has been built over almost 20 years in the commercial real estate industry and contains tens of thousands of local industry contacts, including a diverse and ever-growing collection of thousands of vendors, Feldman Ruel is able to leverage its relationships in the Washington, D.C. area to ensure that the right vendor is sourced for the right job at the right price.
Feldman Ruel understands that the only way to be an effective owner is to be well informed. In order to best support our owners, we send custom-generated monthly and annual reports which provide an assessment of the financial health, physical condition, and occupancy status of each property under management.
With almost 20 years of experience in commercial real estate investment sales and hundreds of transactions successfully completed in the Washington, D.C. MSA, no firm is better equipped to assist its clients in understanding not only the value of their assets, but what actions should or should not be taken to maximize that value throughout the property ownership lifecycle.
