Maximize Net Operating Income

Shelter Corporation provides a full range of multi-family property management services, including marketing, financial management, and accounting. We understand property owners' expectations, because we are owners ourselves. Our objective in is to maximize net operating income while maintaining and preserving the physical asset.

Marketing

We tailor our marketing and advertising efforts for each individual community based upon the unique markets in which they operate — from market-rate garden apartments to communities with layered income and rental restrictions. To help insure high occupancy and low turnover, we focus on both marketing and customer service. Strategic marketing plans include:

  • Lease expiration management.
  • Advertising and finalized cost-per-lease assessment plan.
  • Curb appeal inspections.
  • Prospect fulfillment surveys.

To help retain residents, we provide consistent and attentive service, which is tracked and monitored through resident feedback. Results have proven our service consistently exceeds residents' expectations—whether it's responding within 24 hours to work orders, connecting residents with community resources, or simply listening and responding to suggestions.

Financial Management

Our corporate and on-site management staff is dedicated to improving asset value through revenue enhancement. This is achieved through our marketing ability, a close monitoring of economic occupancy, and a process to reduce bad debt via collections. While occupancy and revenue growth are key factors in maximizing net operating income, we also have a disciplined focus on expense control.
