July business

Welcome to the property management blog, where we keep an eye on the property management business.

July seems to be a good time to get things done. Many tenants are on vacation. The days are still long and the work crews are looking to maximize the daylight hours to get outside work done. There tends to be fewer rain and weather delays in many parts of the country.

Our building continues its face lift today. It is interesting to watch the different ways each trade tries to short-cut their work. I spent a little time watching framers and dry-wallers and painters. Some of the things they do make sense and you realize that someone at some point had a good idea.

Other things you see them do just seem lazy or sloppy. Part of the equation becomes what the finishers can cover up. In a lot of cases the finishers can mask a lot of quick work. When the finishers have to take extra time or re-do things, yuo start thinking about the old sayings that say ” Measure twice, cut once” or “Haste makes waste” or “A job well begun is half done”.

These sayings and others like them were the learning tools of the day before magazines, television and instruction booklets. I wonder what sort of sayings would cover the leasing office activities?
