    So you want to be a Super— your best bet to get your feet wet is take take a live in position–check Craigs List–or watch the papers. You will need an understanding of buildings and it certainly helps to be handy.You need to be organized–because you may have to collect rents and keep books, You need a solid understanding of Landlord-Tenant Law in your state—Most of all you need the patience of a Saint in dealing with irate and impossible tenants. Like I said watch the listings—sometimes a larger complex may be looking for an Assistant.

    It depends on the landlord. For some, being a landlord is their job, so they manage it themselves. Most, however, hire property management companies. Property management companies have standard policies and procedures the really automate the whole process, from rent rolls, finding and screening new tenants, move ins/outs, etc. Makes life easier for everyone.

    There is no standard.

    With my company it just depends on how long people take to get back to me to verify all your information and check all your references.

    Some have taken me about a week and a half because I couldn't get a hold of their previous landlord. And some others I was able to approve the same day because I was able to get a hold of everyone right away.

    and each company has their own operating procedures.

    Type in "property manager" houston and you'll see a listing of several companies.

    A property manager is a person or firm charged with operating a real estate property for a fee, when the owner is unable to personally attend to such details, or is not interested in doing so. Typical jobs include finding/evicting and generally dealing with tenants, home repair, home improvement, cleaning, garden maintenance, landscaping and snow removal, to be coordinated with the owner's wishes. Such arrangements may require the property manager to collect rents, and pay necessary expenses and taxes, making periodic reports to the owner, or the owner may simply delegate specific tasks and deal with others directly. A property manager may arrange for a wide variety of services, as may be requested by the owner of the property, for a fee.

    Yes, they continue to collect rent, it goes to the bank instead. If you are talking about a house you can continue to rent for 3 months. If you are talking about an apartment with more then 4 units you continue to rent until a new owner is found, the banks are required to keep the property manager on.

    This is a difficult question to answer because much depends on how much of the management work you are willing to do yourself. Most property management companies I have know all work on a percentage of the rental income. You can be fairly hands-off but it costs you money.

    I use an online service for my units that could be used from a distance (ie out of town). It helps you advertise, collect rent, book keeping, screen tenants and even schedule your contractors. Keep in mind that you will still have call the plumber or handyman yourself but at only a few dollars a month per unit – I think it is worth it!

    If it is a condo then the law allows for mediation and arbitration. After that you need to take the Condo Board to court under a civil suit.

    Market research in this case means a basic knowledge of the housing market (rentals) in your area. It might include knowing strategies to improve a complex, or buildings profitability, or how to persuade the tenants to be more timely in their payments. It's not any one skill set, but several.

    In other words, the days of simply collecting rent are over. But if your mom is a quick study, she might be able to persuade them to give her a try, based on her previous experience.

    Good luck to her!

    It is almost certain that your rental agreement will still be in force. Most rental agreements would have a provision stating that the agreement is binding on successors in interest, etc.

    As a practical matter, my advice to you would be:
    1. Make sure you have the rent on the day that it is due, but don't give it to anyone. Just hold it in a safe place (where you won't touch it) until you are contacted by someone who says you should be paying it to them. This contact could be a phone call, a letter, a "Notice to Pay Rent or Quit," or some other form of communication. At that point you can start verifying if the person or entity is legitimate. in a safe place where you won't touch it Resist the urge to spend the rent on some other pressing financial need, especially if this goes on for more than a month, which is very possible. If more than a month goes by before you have been contacted, add the next month's rent to the rent you are holding.

    2. Look at your rental agreement to see who is responsible for paying the association fee. If the rental agreement says the landlord is responsible for paying it, you would probably be safe to pay the required amount from the rent you are holding, so that the water stays on.
