Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who own commercial properties but live out of state may find this agreement essential to ensure their property is managed effectively. By appointing a local property manager, they can maintain oversight without the need for constant travel.
  • For those who are unable to manage their commercial properties due to health issues or other personal circumstances, this agreement provides a structured way to delegate management responsibilities. It allows them to ensure that their investment is cared for while they focus on recovery or other priorities.
  • Situations requiring clear delineation of responsibilities between property owners and managers can benefit from this agreement. By having a written document, both parties can refer to specific terms and conditions, reducing the likelihood of disputes.

  • In cases where property owners wish to establish a long-term management strategy for their commercial properties, this agreement serves as a foundational document. It details the terms of engagement and helps in planning for future needs.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate for residential property management agreements, as it is specifically designed for commercial properties. Residential properties have different legal requirements and considerations that are not covered in this agreement.
  • – If the property owner intends to manage the property themselves, this agreement would be unnecessary. It is meant for situations where a property manager is being appointed to take over management responsibilities.
  • – In cases where the property owner has a pre-existing management agreement with another party, this form should not be used until the previous agreement is terminated or resolved. Using multiple agreements can lead to legal complications.
  • – For property owners who are not ready to commit to a management arrangement, this agreement is not suitable. It requires a clear intention to delegate management responsibilities to a property manager.
  • – If the property manager is not a licensed professional or does not meet local regulatory requirements, this agreement should not be used. It is essential to ensure that the manager has the necessary qualifications to manage commercial properties.
