What to Expect When Working With a Property Management Company

If you're considering hiring a property management company, you may be wondering: “What exactly do they do and is it worth it?”

At TBM Property Management, we work with landlords across Anne Arundel, Prince George’s, and Howard Counties to help them maximize income, protect their investment, and eliminate the day-to-day stress of being a landlord.

Here’s what you can expect when you partner with a professional property management company:

1. Strategic Marketing and Faster Tenant Placement

A vacant property is a liability. We make sure your property gets seen by the right renters, fast. This includes:

• Professional listing photos

• Advertising on top rental platforms

• Local market analysis to price your unit competitively

• Scheduling and showing coordination

In competitive rental markets like Columbia, Bowie, or Odenton, first impressions matter. Our marketing process is designed to get your property rented quickly without sacrificing tenant quality.

2. Thorough Tenant Screening

Not all tenants are created equal. Our screening process is designed to identify qualified renters who will:

• Pay on time

• Treat your property with care

• Stay long-term

We run full background checks, verify employment and income, and contact previous landlords. This minimizes the risk of eviction or property damage.

3. Legal Lease Agreements and Local Compliance

We handle all the paperwork including custom lease agreements tailored to Maryland law and local ordinances. In Prince George’s County, for example, specific licensing and tenant rights documentation are required before a lease is even signed.

With us, your property stays compliant with all relevant regulations, helping you avoid costly legal issues.

4. Maintenance Coordination and Emergency Response

Say goodbye to midnight maintenance calls.

We coordinate repairs using licensed and insured vendors, whether it’s a leaking faucet or a full HVAC replacement. Tenants can submit maintenance requests online 24/7 and we handle the rest. You get updates, invoices, and peace of mind.

In older areas of Anne Arundel County, for example, proactive maintenance can help avoid major surprises down the line.

5. Rent Collection and Financial Reporting

We enforce rent deadlines and handle all payment processing. No more chasing down checks or worrying about bounced payments.

Every month, you’ll receive:

• A detailed financial report

• Easy-to-read income and expense statements

• Year-end tax documents

We make it simple to track your performance and stay organized for tax season.

6. Eviction Protection and Legal Support

While we always aim to avoid eviction, sometimes it becomes necessary. If a tenant violates the lease or fails to pay rent, we’ll handle the entire legal process by the book.

In Maryland, eviction laws are strict and time-sensitive. We ensure everything is done properly, so you’re protected every step of the way.
