Exceptional Service

Although you may not have time to handle daily operations at your property, you still want to be informed. MetroPlains Management provides a range of services not only for quality management, but also for investor peace of mind.

Market Rate Properties

Ranging from office buildings to residential and mixed use historic structures, MetroPlains properties receive the best in financial management, marketing and maintenance. As part of this team, you are informed every step of the way.

Property managers and leasing agents develop an aggressive marketing plan to showcase the property. Mindful of Fair Housing regulations and leasing policies, they will screen and process applications and maintain waiting lists to ensure minimal vacancies.

MetroPlains accounting staff provides monthly income reports and balance sheets through the latest property management software. Centralized accounting also ensures that rents are collected and bills are paid promptly. Before the new year, MetroPlains property managers prepare an annual budget for your property.

Affordable Multi-Family Developments

Any growing community will tell you that affordable multi-family housing is in demand. MetroPlains's experience with government funding and compliance agencies provides leadership for this complex investment opportunity.

MetroPlains staff tracks the latest issues by serving on various housing councils in the region. Staff expertise includes HUD-Section 8, Rural Development programs and Low Income Housing Tax Credits administration. In addition, the staff contributes a mix of human resources, real estate, social work, and legal experience. Property managers, site managers and occupancy specialists are trained in all aspects of affordable housing, leasing and occupancy standards. They are encouraged to pursue continuing education and nationally recognized professional certifications. Many already carry these designations.

Continuing its focus on communication, MetroPlains excels in record-keeping and reporting to syndicators, owners and investors throughout the country.

On-Site Services

Each property is assigned a MetroPlains site manager. The manager is the resident's and tenant's direct contact with management. The site manager supervises maintenance, ground keeping and janitorial staff.

The site manager reports to a property manager. Property managers are responsible for budgets, finance, capital improvement decisions and regular communication with owners.

Together, managers organize site visits, inspections, 24-hour emergency services, and competitive bids for lawn care, snow removal and renovations. These proactive duties create curb appeal for your investment.

Management-organized site visits also provide staff with a working knowledge of your property's unique features and market.

New Developments

MetroPlains property management services step beyond its current portfolio. If you are considering a new development and appreciate MetroPlains's attention to the investor, take advantage of construction assistance, pre-opening leasing and marketing options to create a successful property from the start.

MetroPlains is committed to sound management to help you concentrate on the future.
