    What Is Virtual Assistance?

    "Listen to audio version"
    7:06

    Virtual assistance has emerged as a valuable solution for businesses across various industries. 

    Regarding property management, virtual assistance has revolutionized the way companies operate and streamline their operations — but what is "virtual" about it? 

    In this blog, we will explore the virtual aspect of building a team with remote aspects, the benefits it offers to property managers, and how virtual property management companies like VPM Solutions are transforming the industry.

    What is Virtual Assistance?

    Virtual assistance refers to using remote professionals to perform administrative, operational, and specialized tasks for businesses. These professionals, known as virtual assistants (VAs), work remotely and utilize technology to provide support and services to clients from anywhere in the world.

    Why Should Property Managers Consider "Virtual" vs. "In-Person" Team Members?

    So, with a highly-localized industry like property management that requires hands-on, on-site team members to manage properties and tenants, can "virtual" assistance even work? 

    Yes!

    Here are some of the best reasons why property managers can't afford not to consider building a remote team of virtual assistants vs. hiring W-2 employees.

    One of the primary reasons property managers should consider virtual team members is the significant overhead and payroll cost savings they offer. 

    By choosing virtual assistants, companies can eliminate expenses associated with office space, equipment, and utilities. Additionally, virtual assistants are typically independent contractors, which means property managers avoid costs related to employee benefits and payroll taxes.

    Better Efficiency and Productivity

    Virtual assistants specialize in various tasks and can handle a wide range of administrative and operational responsibilities, including property management-specific tasks. 

    By outsourcing these tasks to virtual assistants, property managers can free up their time to focus on core business functions. Virtual assistants are skilled in time management and can efficiently handle tasks such as data entry, scheduling, tenant communication, and document management.

    They are also ideal for a marketing assistant role or maintenance coordination. 

    Scale Faster

    As property management companies grow, the need for additional team members arises. However, hiring and training in-person staff can be time-consuming and costly. 

    Virtual assistants offer a scalable solution, as property managers can easily onboard new VAs as needed. This flexibility enables businesses to scale rapidly and adapt to changing demands without the limitations of geographical hiring.

    Flexibility

    Virtual assistance provides property managers with the flexibility to access support when and where they need it. Whether it's a one-time project or ongoing administrative tasks, virtual assistants can be engaged on demand. 

    They can work during business hours or be available 24/7, depending on the requirements of the property management company.

    Access Skilled Workers From Around the World

    You don't have to wait for a skilled candidate to move locally to your business before filling a crucial role for growth. 

    Virtual assistance transcends geographical boundaries, allowing property managers to tap into a global talent pool. With access to skilled workers from around the world, property management companies can leverage diverse expertise and experience to enhance their operations. 

    This geographical flexibility also provides the opportunity to offer customer support in multiple languages, catering to a broader clientele.
