Summary
What’s Commercial Property Management?
Santa Clara commercial property management is the oversight of non-residential real estate such as warehouses, office spaces, or retail stores. The night-and-day difference between commercial and residential property management is, when managing commercial properties, people behave a lot more professional, compared to residential tenants.
Other than that, most things still apply such as; maintaining outdoor spaces, finding tenants, tenant relations, collecting rent, and keeping up with maintenance.
