Benefits for Landlords
Q: What makes property management so important for landlords in Philadelphia?
Matt Bremner: Property management is the backbone of a successful real estate investment. We take care of everything from tenant screening to maintenance, ensuring landlords can enjoy passive income without experiencing daily hassles. Our team’s expertise allows us to handle issues promptly, maintain high occupancy rates, and ensure properties comply with local regulations.

Q: How does PhillyLiving Management Group differentiate itself from other property management companies?

We’re a second-generation family business, so we understand the value of treating clients like family. Our comprehensive services, combined with our commitment to client satisfaction, set us apart.
Q: Can you share an example of how your team has turned around a challenging property?
Matt Bremner: Absolutely. We had a client with an underperforming multi-unit property. The occupancy rate was low, and the building needed significant maintenance. Our team stepped in, assessed the issues, and implemented a targeted strategy. We upgraded the units and improved exposure by executing a strong social media and email marketing strategy, and within six months, we had the property fully leased. This turnaround boosted the property’s profitability and value.
Q: What role does financial management play in your services?
Matt Bremner: Financial management is critical. We use Appfolio, a robust platform that provides full transparency to landlords and helps us manage everything from rent collection to expense tracking. It’s especially beneficial for landlords who struggle with financial organization. Our finance team ensures that income and expenses are balanced to maximize profitability.
