Phoenix was at the centre of the housing bubble when value of houses fell by more than 47% since 2007. With foreclosures on the rise, there’s been an increase in the number of people looking for houses they can rent. As a result of which rent prices are increasing; in fact a local report indicates that rent prices are likely to increase by more $100 over the next three years.

But as things are starting to return to normalcy, the job market also seems to be favorable. If you’re looking to invest in a property in Phoenix, this is indeed the right time. If you’re looking to buy or rent property in Phoenix there are plenty of options. A good property management company in Phoenix can help you manage the property.

The choice of place largely depends on your requirements. For example, if you are a young family and looking to rent property in a place in a recent school district, Deer Valley is a decent place. South Tempe too, is a good choice. The place is also close to the South Mountain Park and the Tempe Kiwanis Park. There are plenty of activities to keep children occupied. Gilbert too is a safer option.

Immaterial of the area that you choose a property to invest, it’s important to choose a good property management company to help you. It’s only a property manager who can understand the nuances of each and every zip code in the city and give you an idea about the right place to invest. Besides, different segments respond differently to different marketing strategies. A strategy that works for a young family may not be ideal for a student looking for rented accommodation. A good manager understands this and advertises your property accordingly. For instance, the younger crowd may respond to internet marketing strategies, but the elderly may be open to MLS listings.

A good Phoenix property management company has a very large network of realtors who connect them to tenants looking for properties. The manager can also take care of the maintainence of the property. That middle of night call about leaking roofs and cracks in the walls can now be addressed to the property manager.

But what do you have to keep in mind, before you choose a property manager. There are plenty of companies that promise lure people with low management fees. But when it comes to the basics, they’re not even close to the professionals. Vacating a bad tenant, for example can be a big headache, but established property managers often suggest optional eviction protection plan to protect you from the cost of eviction.
