Face lifts

Welcome to the property management blog. We are a diary of the property management business.

The building that we are officed in is in the middle of a face lift. We are on the “older” side of town that has just recently been busy with building and re-developing. Two new subdivisions with a shopping center were built up the road from us. They are doing well. A bank purchased the empty lot across the street from us and put up a nice new building.

The state has selected our street, which is a state highway, for widening and improving in the next two to three years. So the owners of our building and our company did the logical thing. They put a new face on our building. I know intellectually that a building face lift can do a lot for the look and feel of even an area as small as ours. But when you see the end result, it becomes much more than an intellectual exercise. It pleases the senses to look at a re-done building. It feels good.

Driving by the building is a different experience now. It is much more attractive. So more people will be interested in being in our building and doing business with us.

It will help bring business to the bank across the street. And their new customers will also want to come across the street and do business here. I know this is not news to you, but it doesn’t hurt to be reminded that the emotional energy that a face lift brings a property should never be under estimated. Even just a fresh coat of paint and a new flower bed is often enough to get your emotions flowing in the right direction.

So if you are looking for some upside in your proeprty and you are looking for a big solution, maybe you should try a smaller solution first. Give it a face lift or a fresh coat of paint.
