Property Services

Customized Property Services

At HRA, we take the complexity out of managing commercial and residential properties. We actively engage tenants, service providers, brokers, and lenders to create the kind of partnerships that will positively impact your short-term cash flow and the long-term value of your asset. Our industry-leading property management services are tailored to give you the help you need, when and where you need it.

Commercial Property Management

HRA’s premium commercial property management can significantly enhance the long-term value of your asset. Our commercial property management services are customized to your asset and your needs. We will operate, control, maintain, and oversee your entire physical property, as well as its vendors and tenants. We seek to maximize cash flow for our clients by ensuring there are no impediments to leasing activity, retaining existing tenants at the highest possible rent, and managing operating expenses to optimize service value. This includes accurate reporting of all financial and leasing activity, day-to-day operations, and capital investments.

Income Side Activities

  • Collect rents
  • Monitor receivables
  • Oversee outside leasing agents
  • Manage rollover risk
  • Drive critical activities for tenant retention

Expense Side Activities

  • Initiate proactive repair and maintenance procedures
  • Improve vendor services
  • Implement prudent cost-containment measures (e.g. energy conservation, budgeted capital improvements, etc.)

Owner Representative

When your investment property needs major capital improvements, you need outstanding oversight and diligent coordination to keep everyone in sync. We help real estate owners upgrade and renovate their properties to maximize cash-flow and resale value. As an owner representative, we can help you coordinate all of the necessary activities and act as the project manager to keep your service providers (architects, designers, engineers, contractors, attorneys, etc.) working in sync. We serve as your eyes, ears, and advocates from conceptual design through the closeout of the project.

Hartt Realty Advisors acts as your Owner’s Representative and fiduciary, overseeing every aspect of your project from planning through move-in. Our services include:

Asset Management

For some of our clients, real estate is not their primary business, but rather an important alternate investment. HRA’s asset management services help owners to benefit from their real estate investment while focusing on their primary business. The asset management function includes ensuring that each property is operated meticulously, while also emphasizing long-term investment strategies and value creation. These activities are performed in close coordination with the owner and include the following:

  • Selecting, supervising, and collaborating with leasing agents
  • Negotiating lease terms
  • Sourcing debt
  • Long-term capital investment planning

“Bob and his team manage my investment like it is their investment.”

What really differentiates HRA from other property management firms is our end-to-end immersion in the real estate business.

If you don’t have a great deal of experience in diversifying with real estate, or you don’t have time to focus on these complex investments, a trusted advisor like HRA can be a valuable resource. We have a network of qualified and trusted investment sponsors with well-established reputations, who track emerging markets and investment trends around the country.
