As a commercial property manager, it is critical to maintain the buildings you are responsible for. The outward appearance of your property can make or break a tenant’s decision to live or work there. Painting the exterior and interior of your commercial property is an easy and affordable way to improve property value. While at the same time, protecting the property from more costly and preventable damage and repairs.
Walking Advertisement
Painting your business shows that you care about your outward appearance and want to improve your commercial property. Without even being consciously aware, people and more importantly potential customers take note of your business if it is well maintained. That split-second judgement makes all the difference whether a new customer will walk through your doors or not. Therefore, a good first impression is key to building your brand and getting the customers you want. Keeping a building well maintained and freshly painted is extremely important. A new paint job is not only cosmetic but a reflection of the type of business that is running inside.
Attention Grabbing
Prospective renters for an office space or apartment are more likely to approach your rental property if the exterior looks nice. A good first impression will certainly attract more clients. The mo
re prospective renters you have means you are able to maintain an upward revenue stream. While attracting new business is always important, maintaining current tenants is just as important. Updating the exterior and interior of a space will also keep current tenants happy. If already paying tenants are happy, they will tell their friends and family about their property management company. This kind of free advertising is invaluable.
Improve Your Commercial Property
The adage about never getting a second chance to make a first impression is particularly poignant for commercial property managers and the importance of painting for investment rental properties makes this happen. Prospective tenants are looking to make money and grow their businesses. As such, they don’t want to locate their operations in a facility that looks terrible. Since few things can improve a building’s look faster than a fresh coat of paint, contracting for commercial painting is a sure-fire way to entice new tenants.
Having a good paint job on your company building displays a sense of professionalism and care. A business that looks good on the outside shows that it must be a successful company on the inside too. A paint job does the same thing that our clothes do. Clothes are a representation of our personal style and profession. People that dress for success are more likely to be taken seriously and move forward in their careers. The same thing applies to the outward appearance of a company. If the outside of a building is aesthetically pleasing it will give the company inside, credibility. People will take that business more seriously because of the way it looks. A fresh coat of paint is an effective and low-cost way to increase your business profits. Spending money on the aesthetics of your property can do a lot to raise the value of the building itself and the business inside.
Preserve the Building’s Condition
If you are a commercial property manager, you don’t only want your tenants to make money. On the contrary, you must keep your company in the black as well. Since old, cracked and damaged paint can invite water infiltration and other damage, you may have to spend money on preventable repairs. That, of course, affects your company’s bottom line. Instead of risking the profitability of your organization, contract with a skilled commercial painter to preserve your building’s condition.
Paint that Property
As a commercial property manager, you can market a newly painted property as an upgrade. Painting your property will get new customer interest and foot traffic through the door. Consequently, allowing you to sell your rental property for a higher price. Just make sure when you decide to paint your commercial property that you choose a reputable company to do the work. The right commercial painting company will do a great job painting your property and help make sure you choose the right color palette. For example, fresh neutral and gray complementary colors are soothing. While darker colors and red tones can affect mood and decrease productivity and property value. Picking the right colors to paint in your space will increase the property value of the space more than you think. Above all, painting the space is an easy and cost effective way to maintain your property with minimal effort and a lot of payoff.
Keep Tenants Happy
Once you land a business tenant, you must be sure you keep the company’s owner happy. Since no one enjoys being duped, you don’t want to let your building’s appearance slip after the tenant signs a lease. If you do, you may spend more time advertising for new tenants than focusing on managing the property. By asking a commercial painter to repaint damaged areas and touchup faded ones, you help keep tenants happy.
Being a professional, you want the commercial property you manage to be in tip-top shape. For an effective way to meet your property goals, commercial painting is invaluable.
