Property Management Services Global Overview

Definition

Summary

Commercial and residential property owners, including government agencies and educational institutions, often procure property management services in order to transfer the management of a real estate property to a third party. The chief responsibility of a vendor is to represent the property owner when interfacing with the tenants of the property, particularly for the collection of rent. Property owners may delegate additional tasks to the operator, including the payment of necessary expenses and taxes, property maintenance and cleaning, securing the building and leasing vacant units.

Vendor & Supply Chain Analysis

Service providers must contend with high wage costs due to the labor-intensive nature of market services, which somewhat detracts from their profitability. Overall, vendor financial risk is moderate in the market.

Even in the event of an upstream vendor’s bankruptcy, the upstream services on which market vendors rely are widely available and easily obtainable. As a result, the risk of service interruptions or spikes in rates for market services due to adverse events in the supply chain is minimal, to buyers’ benefit.

Among the roughly 277,000 property management companies in the United States, the top four operators account for less than 20.0% of total market revenue, indicating a low level of concentration. Operators must have strong contacts and a high degree of knowledge concerning local real estate markets to provide services, so most enterprises are small companies servicing a narrow geographic region.

The United States is a net importer of computers, meaning it imports more computers than it exports. While lower manufacturing costs abroad drive down prices for imported computers, relying on imports can lead to potential shortages or price increases if there are supply chain disruptions due to geopolitical tensions, trade disputes, or global crises.
