Real Property Management

High turnover for a reason. No one lasts long due to burnout. Besides the owner no one last more than 5yrs max. They would rather just cycle through than try to train you and set you up long term. Their training is done by making you watch some videos on fair housing which is great and all but the rest of your training, if you are lucky and they have someone that can show you the position in the office, is for about a week and then you are on your own.  Hope you read the constantly updated employee handbook they give you or you might be told you did something wrong before you had a chance to learn it. The communication is terrible. They would rather stew on something minor you messed up or a process you are doing that they don't like how you are particularly doing it and fire you a bit down the road for it rather than counsel and correct you, it happened to many people. They don't have a good way of telling everyone what's going on and if you were out of the office at the time, better hope you have someone that relates it to you. Also, they will make it seem like the company is caring about family and respects the work/home life balance but there is the underlying assumption you will be working not only business hours but evenings and weekends since property management never sleeps and they are constantly understaffed due to people quitting or being let go. So the rest get over worked. until management makes time in their busy schedule to host an interview and hire someone. On top of that it's a small company so not a lot of room for moving up and they don't give out cost of living increase raises on a yearly basis. There is no medical or dental and maternity leave you just use up your PTO. Owner also likes to give some bonuses via Saturn Barter instead of cash which is a scam. You do get paid for mileage but not gas and company cars are not divided equally. You do get to meet a lot of cool tenants and property owners but there are negative interactions as well. The work is similar each day but has differences from day to day which is nice. Unfortunately though, work never stops which can be a downfall especially to those prone to overwork themselves since they expect you to take the laptops home and keep up on things in evening and weekends and if you just work the office hours everyone else outpaces you because there is no way to stay on top of work without overtime.

What is a typical day at work? The nature of property management is unpredictable and reactive--it is very rare to have two days that are the exact same. However, with the high caliber co-workers that exist in the workplace, each day provides an opportunity for personal growth.

What have I learned? I've been provided opportunities to grow my personal knowledge with free audio books, training classes, seminars and much more. The positions I've held at RPME have provided me with invaluable skills and knowledge that will help me in nearly any profession in the future.

How was the management? Like most any assessment of a manager, opinions vary. Personally, I've had a great experience with all managers whether it be the CEO, HR director, or direct supervisor--all of them have been fair and professional. All they ask is that you help push the company further and higher than the day prior.

Workplace culture? It is tough to make an assessment on this point because culture falls on the employee as much as the company--employees decide what attitude to bring to work and how they are going to interact with one another. As it pertains to RPME, the culture is collaborative and relaxed--jokes, laughs, and compliments take place frequently which helps bring gratification to day-to-day tasks.

Hardest part of the job? The company is growing and hungry. As a result, employees are asked to be hungry for growth, too--that means spending time on sharpening personal skills and talents to help propel the company further--finding the time to do that on top of daily tasks can be difficult; however, this is also the most rewarding part of the job. They pay you to invest in yourself.

Most enjoyable part of the job? No day is the same. There are new challenges that pop-up each day and those challenges can require new skills and abilities to tackle. Having the sense of accomplishment on the back side of constant challenges is fantastic--there are plenty of those opportunities here.

As a leasing agent working with single-family homes, I cannot recommend Real Property Management Express enough. From the moment I started working with them, I knew that they were a top-notch property management company.

First of all, their team is incredibly responsive and helpful. Whenever I have a question or concern, I can always count on them to get back to me promptly and to provide me with the information and support I need. They are also incredibly knowledgeable about the local real estate market, which means that they are always able to offer great advice and insights.

Another thing I love about Real Property Management Express is their attention to detail. They take care of everything from marketing and advertising the properties to screening potential tenants, collecting rent, and handling repairs and maintenance. They are incredibly thorough in their work, which means that I can always trust that they have everything under control.

Finally, their customer service is second to none. They truly care about their clients and go above and beyond to ensure that everyone is happy and satisfied. Whether I need help with a problem tenant or just have a general question about one of their properties, they are always happy to help.

Overall, I cannot recommend Real Property Management Express highly enough. They are an amazing company with an incredible team, and I feel incredibly lucky to work with them. If you're looking for a top-quality property management company, look no further than Real Property Management Express!

Real Property Management Express is a unique experience unlike any other company I've worked with. Every day is dynamic, and the work week is filled with exciting challenges and new opportunities. Due in part to the rapid growth of the company, there are many advancement opportunities available, and aspiring leaders are coached into success in leading their teams.

The company has no shortage of challenges. If you like an easygoing work environment that doesn't ask much of you, this is not the right environment. Our team is ambitious, adaptable, and enduring. We embrace each new challenge as an opportunity to learn, and we aim to improve ourselves every day. The hardest part of the work is that the job is never done, and that there's always a new horizon to discover.

We take our workplace culture very seriously. Every team member can tell you what our mission, vision, and company values are. We live and breathe Extreme Ownership and take responsibility for everything in our world. Even if we didn't cause it, we will take responsibility for making it right.

The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing team members develop new skills and advance their careers. It is fun to win as a team, and we have had a lot of new wins to celebrate.

Having been in the restaurant industry for nearly two decades, I had been on a job hunt for almost 9 months. Mismatch after mismatch, I was growing frustrated. From my first conversation with RPME, I know this was a winning combination. Even better, they identified me as a match quickly and cautiously. Now that I have undergone training and received my first promotion, I can confidently say I have never been more proud to be part of a winning team. Accountability, communication, and performance standards are top notch, and there is a high emphasis placed on training and continuing education. I feel supported by my peers/superiors, and have been presented with a clear path to success with corresponding incentives and structures “real talk” one-on-one reviews.  Top performers are championed and help is given to those still finding their way. Above all, CULTURE is what drew me to Real Property Management Express, and the people are what will keep me there long-term.  

Small family operated property management firm that fired 11 people in the one year I worked there. Owners of rentals told me early on that they had running bets as to how long a new staff member would last. You'll see new property managers and assistants change every year because they are unsatisfied with the management, the low pay, and the general culture. 
Not only were staff frustrated with management but owners and tenants were frequently bothered with constant policy changes as well as system changes that didn't improve efficiency in maintenance or getting tenants into empty rentals in a timely manner. Also, vendors were most often paid late by sometimes up to six months which was crazy. These vendors would call yelling they needed their money and front office staff refused to take their calls putting it on local managers who could only shrug their shoulders and apologize for the continued lack of quality. Top management also rarely took calls from disgruntled owners and vendors who had legitimate concerns.
The positives are most owners and tenants are very nice, you get to know many good outside professionals in various trades, and the offices were nicely set up.


You get treated poorly by management, the residents, and the prospects. They expect you to get everything done in a timely manner, but take their sweet time responding back to you. You are going to have to do multiple people’s jobs in this position with little pay increases. The communication is terrible. They let the cleaners treat you like garbage and don’t fire them even if you get over 10 complaints. I went through 4 Regional managers while I was there in a year and a half. You are all alone out here, and the properties are trash as well, the residents leave a mess constantly, which you have to clean because there are no common area cleaners at one of the properties. I had one maintenance tech here with me and that’s it, he was a good guy. They have unrealistic expectations, and the turnover rate is crazy! I lived at one of these properties and I never knew who my property manager was because there’s no onsite office at one of the properties. I had so many people waiting for appliances to be fixed. 

A fun place to work. You must have knowledge in various construction trades to succeed as a maintenance tech. Just a few items needed to succeed are sheetrock repairs (tape / top / texture) / painting / plumbing / electrical / carpentry skills (framing & finish) / flooring / landscaping knowledge / concrete / garage door repairs.  If you have extensive knowledge in the trades then, you will do good. In my opinion, for the skills l have (mentioned above) the pay was not enough. Love working, but not for a low wage. In two years, I never got a raise. Good, skilled workers are hard find and are few in between, so when a company finds one, my advise would be, take care of that employee in all areas from pay / benefits / PTO /ect, because once the employee quits you will wish you did things differently. Some companies are not good at recognizing a great employee. If they were, you would have a great, long term employee that brings far more value to the company than a few dollar raise. 

My day will start at 9;00 a.m, will came to the office meeting to get the list of properties I was going to show for the day, got keys and flyers and what ever additional information needed for prospecting tenants.
After the meeting and spend a 1/2 hour with my co-workers wish each other a good day, I started to go on the road to show properties,answering the phones as prospected clients will call of course using a ear  piece, showed properties, fill out rental agreements,sometimes on the web side or sometimes with actual applications, send the information to the office and continue to my next property until I show all of them in my schedule for the day.
The interesting part of my job is that I was always meeting new people and going to different properties, the down part was mostly the traffic I had to deal from one property to another, but at the end of the day was a great feeling to had help those people to find their new home,

I have been through a lot in my days and I learned how far kindness can take a person. I have never felt so appreciated and useful in a company before. I am so grateful to be a part of this team and I'm grateful that the team took a chance on me. 

RPM Express excels to ensure that all of its employees are taken care of and trained well, making it a priority to ensure that nobody is lost or confused. At RPME, nobody should ever utter the words, "I wasn't trained on that". The CEO is directly in contact with each and every team member to ensure that we are all operating and working together, which is so incredibly rare in the industry nowadays. Our values are extreme ownership, discipline=freedom, and cover and move. 

I didn't know what to expect when I applied, but I am certainly glad I did. I can assure anyone who applies will be in for one of the most interesting and supportive careers imaginable. Take a chance on RPM, and they will take a chance on you!
