What soft skills should all Property Management Specialists possess?
Pieter Van Der Have: People skills are always important but have to be tempered by legal and fiscal accountabilities. In many cases, the p.m. may end up being a project manager responsible for managing contracts and contractors.
What skills stand out on Property Management Specialist resumes?
Pieter Van Der Have: Communication and financial/accounting skills, closely followed by an understanding of how "smart" buildings function.
What hard/technical skills are most important for Property Management Specialists?
Pieter Van Der Have: Up-to-date computer skills are certainly desirable. I don't necessarily recommend that a p.m. have plumbing or electrical skills, though a general understanding of building systems could frequently be very useful.
