Why choose Property Management Maple Ridge?

• We are a Property Management company for the new millennium. We took the things that frustrated us about traditional property management and eliminated them from our company.
• We guarantee 24 hour response times to your questions.
• Accountability. We believe in being 100% accountability to you, the owner.
• No lease up fees with a contract. As landlords who have and continue to use Property Management companies in other provinces, we dislike lease up fees as they cut into our cash flow. That being said, we decided to eliminate them.
• Street smarts. We have a lot of practical experience that has been learned outside of the classroom. We know tricks of the trade that you won’t get from a rookie Property Manager.
• Property and Strata Management is our primary concern, not a secondary source of income like it is for most brokerages that specialize in Real Estate Sales.
• We specialize in houses that aren’t perfect. Houses with basement suites, rooming houses, tougher areas of town, etc.
• We handle smaller strata buildings; anywhere from 4 to 30 units is our area of expertise.
• Communication. This is the key in any business, but seems to frustrate owners of rental properties who contract Property Management services more than anything else. We promise to communicate with you effectively, even if you don’t always like what we have to say. Many of our clients live out of town and this is no problem; Skype, email, and the traditional phone all work for us!
• Fully licensed with the Real Estate Council of BC, which is required by law. Not all Property Management or Condo Management companies out there are, so please do your due diligence beforehand.

To p 10 reasons why Maple Ridge/ Pitt Meadows is a good place to own rental property

Positive cash flow. Due to the relatively affordable prices in Maple Ridge, positive cash flow is possible for prudent investors.

Maple Ridge is situated only 45 km East of Vancouver. The time required to travel this distance will shorten as The Gateway Project that is currently well underway will make this area one of the most accessible in the entire Greater Vancouver area.

Bridges. Maple Ridge was always difficult to access. The Golden Ears bridge that opened in June 2009 connecting the city to Langley, and the new Pitt River bridge has already had a significant positive impact on accessibility to the area.

Other transportation improvements occurring around the Maple Ridge area include the expansion of the Port Mann bridge, and the widening of highway 1. These are scheduled to be completed by 2013, and will make it much easier to access the lower mainland. The Translink operated West Coast Express which connects Mission with downtown Vancouver also stops in Maple Ridge.

Maple Ridge has a current population of 75,000, and is estimated to hit 94,000 by 2021. Together with Pitt Meadows (which has a population of 16,000), this area represents a significant population of over 90,000 residents. The average age of Maple Ridge is significantly younger than the Provincial average as well.

The real estate is currently priced much lower here than other areas around the lower mainland due to the traditional difficult access to and from the city. Look for this to change over the next few years as the demand for residential and commercial property will begin to appreciate more rapidly than in the past.

The city is forecasting 400 new businesses to relocate or start-up here over the next few years. This will dramatically increase the demand for commercial property, but will also draw residential demand as people will want to live near where they work.

Two thirds of Maple Ridge residents commute to other communities currently. They generally work in Langley, Surrey, or even Vancouver. The anticipated growth in businesses moving to the area due to cheaper land should result in more jobs being available in Maple Ridge itself.

Communication. This is the key in any business, but seems to frustrate owners of rental properties who contract Property Management services more than anything else. We promise to communicate with you effectively, even if you don’t always like what we have to say. Many of our clients live out of town and this is no problem; Skype, email, and the traditional phone all work for us!

Maple Ridge still retains its small town, rural feel despite it’s quick growth. It boasts over 800 km’s of walking and riding trails, and a significant amount of park space.
