2. COMMON STRUCTURES OF PM BUSINESSES: -Portfolio/Property Manager Model -Specialized/Departmental/Silo Model -Common Hybrids: -Two-person teams -PM Model with certain responsibilities segregated (Accounting, Leasing, Maintenance, etc)

3. PORTFOLIO/PROPERTY MANAGER MODEL Strengths:  No breakdown of communication between departments.  One person takes ownership for all the responsibilities of management.  Clients and tenants have one point of contact for all their needs. They always know where to go to get a question answered.  The manager is typically very familiar with all the aspects of the properties they manage. Weaknesses:  They become a “jack of all trades, master of none”. Individual process might take then longer.  It is much harder to hire someone into the PM role. Since they handle so many different responsibilities, training is very difficult and time consuming.  Owners and tenants have no one to contact if the PM is out. Nothing gets done.

4. SPECIALIZED/DEPARTMENTAL/SILO MODEL Strengths:  People performing the same task over and over will become more familiar with that process and therefore more efficient. They become specialists.  Easier tasks can be assigned to new/lower level employees. Can be a training ground while they learn the system. It is much easier to higher for lower level positions.  Owners/tenants have multiple people to contact if one person is out. Weaknesses:  There is often times a breakdown in communication between departments.  People will often time “pass the buck” to another department to avoid responsibility or blame. Employees will not have the “big picture” in mind.  Clients often complain about having to talk to too many people. Don’t like being “passed around”.  Each person is less familiar with each individual property. A team can manage more properties.
