For landlords and property owners—especially those managing their investments from a distance—relying solely on a property manager’s word can feel like a leap of faith. Is routine maintenance really happening? Are tenants being taken care of? Is your investment property being treated like an asset or an afterthought?
At Check My Property, we’ve built a service that does one thing with absolute clarity: we show you the truth. Designed for absentee landlords and property owners across Port Saint Lucie and the greater St. Lucie County area, our unique property check service helps you audit your property manager’s performance, without going through them directly.
This guide breaks down what to look for during quarterly reviews, how our service supports your efforts, and why documentation matters more than you think.
Why Property Manager Audits Matter
Trust is important—but documentation is better.
Even the most responsive property manager may overlook issues or fail to provide detailed reporting. Over time, small oversights compound into bigger problems: deferred maintenance, tenant dissatisfaction, lost revenue, or worse—property devaluation.
An audit isn’t about catching someone in the act. It’s about protecting your investment with measurable, objective insights.
What You Should Be Reviewing Quarterly
To effectively assess your property manager’s performance each quarter, focus on these key metrics and documents:
- Maintenance Records
You should be receiving detailed reports of all maintenance activities, including receipts, service provider notes, and before-and-after photos. If you’re not, this is a red flag. - Tenant Communication Logs
Ask for documented interactions with tenants regarding repairs, complaints, and renewals. A lack of engagement often correlates with high turnover. - Financial Statements
Quarterly rent roll, income vs. expense breakdowns, and reconciliation reports should all be transparent and easy to understand. - Lease Compliance Checks
Verify that tenants are complying with lease terms (e.g., no unauthorized pets, subleasing, or property damage). This is often skipped entirely by overworked management teams. - Inspection Photos
Your manager should provide recent, date-stamped images of both the interior and exterior. If not, how do you know they’ve even been onsite?
How Check My Property Makes It Easy
Unlike traditional inspections that funnel through the management company, our service provides direct, third-party verification. You don’t have to request reports or wonder if corners are being cut—we go straight to the source: the property.
Our process includes:
- Interior & Exterior Property Walkthroughs
We walk the entire property—front to back, inside and out—documenting conditions, potential risks, and areas of concern. - Detailed Property Reports
Each report includes high-resolution photos, a completed checklist, and honest commentary—highlighting everything from general upkeep to potential lease violations. - No Middlemen
You receive the report directly. There’s no filter, no sugarcoating, and no conflict of interest.
Our clients often discover things like missed maintenance, neglected landscaping, broken gates, or unauthorized tenants—issues that had gone unreported by their property managers for months.
Our Mission Is Simple: Get Eyes on the Ground
After nearly a decade in property management and janitorial services across Southeast Florida, we founded Check My Property because we saw too many owners being left in the dark. Our goal is to empower you with truth, documentation, and decision-making clarity.
We’re not here to replace your manager—we’re here to verify what they’re doing (or not doing) so you can take action when it matters most.
