Dear Multi-Family Vendor Guide Readers, The year 2020 has not been without its complications, and that’s putting it mildly. Fortunately there seems to be little that can slow down the multi-family real estate industry. Although the ways in which investors and property managers must conduct their business have changed dramatically, people still need great places to live just as much as ever. Perhaps even more so, if they anticipate ever having to endure yet another lockdown. (Heaven help us.) The success of Multi-Family Vendor Guide is bound to mirror that of local property management professionals. To that end I can say we’re all in a very good position. Recently my team and I have had the good fortune to offer Vendor Guide franchising opportunities throughout the United States. Within months we added localized editions in St. Louis, Louisville, Des Moines, San Diego, and Richmond, VA. The Multi-Family Vendor Guide business model has proven just as effective in those new markets as it always has in the Twin Cities. Contractors, property managers, and other real estate professionals across the country are now benefitting from the fast results that direct mail uniquely offers. Multi-Family Vendor Guide delivers an invaluable resource to decision makers who are in constant need of capable, trustworthy professionals. They see our clients’ messages in our pages, and they know to hire their services. But however big this thing gets, the Twin Cities edition of Multi-Family Vendor Guide will always be dearest to us. This is the local edition that started it all, and we feel tremendous pride whenever the magazine drives real leads toward our clients’ businesses — which is every day. We will continue working for the Twin Cities even if the Timbuktu edition debuts as early as 2021. Please read on to discover the greater Twin Cities area’s preeminent real estate professionals. If your property has a roof, walls, and a foundation – and I strongly suspect it has — then it will inevitably need the work of the fine vendors featured in this magazine’s pages. Multi-Family Vendor Guide has mailed free of charge to decision makers for nearly one decade now. If you ever hire one of our advertisers, then I ask only that you tell them where you learned of their services.

VendorGuideUSA.com

If you would like to join our clients and witness the massive boon to business that an appearance in Multi-Family Vendor Guide brings, then I welcome your call any time at (952) 460-1916. It would also be my pleasure to meet with you in person to discuss how we can best put this exciting enterprise to work for you!

Yours Truly, Scott Holgate

WHY YOUR PROPERTY’S GOOGLE REVIEW SCORE IS JUST LIKE YOUR PROPERTY’S PARKING LOT Wait, what. That makes no sense at all. Or does it? How do most consumers (or prospective renters) research their next purchase? (or apartment rental?) Yep. You guessed it. They turn to Google. I bet you do the same thing. I’m also willing to bet that when you search on Google or shop online, you look at reviews to understand previous customer’s experiences with that business/apartment community so that you can have a positive experience as well.

We all do it. It’s human nature. Check out these stats:

97% 88% 57% n 97% of consumers read online reviews for local business, with 33% looking for a local business every day. *

VendorGuideUSA.com

n 88% of consumers trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations from family and friends. *

n 57% of consumers will only use a business if it has a 4 or more stars. *

“O.K. So now, I get the importance of a good Google review score, but what’s the deal with the comparison to my property’s parking lot? That sounds ridiculous.” Is it? Think about it. The very first interaction a prospective renter has with your property is online. When they make the decision to schedule a tour with you, what is the first thing they see when they arrive at your property? Your parking lot. Is it swept and striped? Are there potholes and cracks? Is it plowed clear of snow? Are there cars with flat ties or that clearly haven’t been moved in a while? Is there trash laying around? These are the first impressions a prospective renter will have of your property. Have you ever expected a 4:00 appointment, but they never showed up? Maybe they drove into your parking lot or through your property and said. “No thanks” and drove off. Unfortunately, that can happen, and we don’t even know it. The same is true with your Google review score. Let’s face it, which would you choose?

This is an actual search result from about a year ago. I reached out to Naturescape (several times) and never got a response back. Clearly, they don’t “get it.” I wouldn’t wish ill-will on anyone, but would you choose them over their competition?

It’s true. Your property’s Google review score is just like your property’s parking lot. It’s the first exposure that a prospective resident has with your property. Most importantly, and we all know this, a parking lot isn’t going to fix itself. Wouldn’t it be great if it did, Right? The exact same thing is true about your property’s Google review score. It needs to be invested in. It needs to be fixed. It needs to be improved. If you don’t do it now. When will you?

I’ve been monitoring these numbers since 2016 and (not surprisingly) they just keep going up and up.

Now is the time to take action.

DIGITAL MARKETING

Instant Touchdown! Is your property’s Google review score lower than 4 Stars?

If so, you are most likely losing phone calls AND website visits, And sadly, you don’t even know it…

Did you know that 57% of consumers won’t even consider using a business unless they have at least a 4-Star rating or higher?

don’t worry - we’re here to help you. 5 Star Consulting specializes in helping apartment communities and management companies improve their Google review scores, which Google and the other search engines absolutely love.

Let’s face it. Google’s not going away anytime soon. Maybe never, right?

As we all know, now, more than ever, apartment searches and inquiries are taking place online. Be sure you are putting your best (online) foot forward, with 5 Star Consulting, by improving your Google review score NOW, so that you don’t lose prospective residents to your nearby community competitors.

‘Tis Budgeting Time for 2021

J.G. HAUSE CONSTRUCTION with

By Mac McDonell Property managers around the country are currently trying to define their priorities for the next year. They may have put many of these priorities on hold as 2020 rolled through like a flaming freight train. Choosing the right go-to contractor helps. Such a contractor will partner with the property manager, making certain all the elements of correctly phased construction are clear and understood. Rear Admiral Grace Hopper once said “The most dangerous phrase in the language is ‘we’ve always done it this way.’” That is why when you ask your contractor how they can complete important projects like siding or deck construction better, you don’t want to hear “The way we’re already doing it is fine.” You should expect your go-to contractor to take that question to heart, offer practical ideas for improvement, and then deliver real results.

VendorGuideUSA.com

Our most successful property manager partners are willing to look at new projects and ask how they can be done better. We learn better practices with every project we undertake, so we are able to answer this question openly and with conviction. In his book QBQ! The Question Behind the Question, John Miller wrote “If we have not changed, we have not learned.” We believe that in full here at J.G. Hause.

Property managers frequently begin a project with a focus on minimizing its budget or obtaining the lowest possible bid. Oftentimes the resources available to a homeowners’ association necessitate this. But costsaving measures are best identified only once all of a project’s financial impact is clear and understood. Earlier this year our client asked for our help with their very large and complicated flat roof. They believed they could save money by keeping most of the roof itact, focusing instead on repairing its rusted and damaged edges while replacing its rubber membrane. We helped them understand the added costs and liability that would come with so patently risky a project. We then helped

them appreciate that while replacing the roof altogether may cost more upfront, it would ultimately represent the longest-lasting and most cost-effective solution. In that instance we put our experience to good work for our client, sparing the homeowners’ association significant cost and inconvenience at the same time. And when they do another roofing project in the future, they’ll be able to make the informed decision right from the outset. John Miller also wrote “Effective communication is not someone else’s job, nor does it begin with being understood. Rather, it’s about understanding the other person.” We believe effective communication begins with the contractor, and that no project should start without it. We pride ourselves in our ability to listen. It is a skill you must learn, not one you are born with. By listening to our client we gain a genuine understanding for their values and how we can best protect their interests. That knowledge is invaluable as we strive to make each project more successful and less of a burden on the homeowners’ association. Construction and renovation in 2020 were complicated by fast-changing pricing structures and material shortages. Budgeting in 2021 will be even more challenging because of that, but also more crucial than ever. It is safer to find a contractor who asks the right questions than to stick with one who only tells you what you want to hear. More than anything, make sure your contractor treats you as a partner. A great one should do nothing less.

HELPING

LIFE

go right interview

& article by david scheller

Commitment is a precious commodity these days. You would like to be certain that the people handling your personal business are totally committed to a very important cause: you. If you can find someone who will extend every effort to see that you are well taken care of, you had better keep them around for the long run. It would be difficult to find a man more committed to insurance than Jordan Radel. As the son of two State Farm agents Jordan grew up in the world of insurance, and making sure that people are truly covered has been his life’s work. After six years of experience in a busy agency, he opened Jordan Radel State Farm in Eagan. “I love our community, and so do my staff,” said Jordan. “We’re all from here, we’re all personally invested in our hometowns, and we’re licensed to help everyone in the state of Minnesota. Always putting our neighbors first has really let this agency grow. “We’re focused on helping young families that are just starting out. They’re the ones sharing big life achievements that they may not realize should be insured. Getting married, financing a vehicle, buying a first home, having children, even college funds -- these are all things we are here to protect. “We are more than happy to help everyone with their insurance needs, and serve new college graduates to retirees throughout the Twin Cities area. Everyone is unique, so it’s essential to us that we fully appreciate our clients’ needs. That’s the best way to tailor a policy that covers everything important to them. “We don’t cut corners when it comes to our clients’ protection. While some insurance agencies center a policy around keeping its price as low as possible, we’re committed to making sure you have the right coverage in place, combining auto, home, and renter’s insurance with health and life protection. Once we are certain a custom policy will totally protect our client, we utilize our experience in the industry to make it economical with every possible discount. It’s about providing the best insurance for the best price, not the cheapest.

“That makes a great difference. We have to deal with our clients on some of the worst days of their lives, but when our foresight means they will still be protected -- that’s when this job is its most rewarding.

It doesn’t matter whether you visit Jordan Radel State Farm in person, or if you simply call in -- you will be greeted with a smile. Choose them and you will sit down with Jordan or one of his three licensed team members, and help them to understand everything you care about. Jordan Radel State Farm will put the best in insurance to work for you.

VendorGuideUSA.com

“This is not a dotted line operation. When you work with us, we will check in with you every two years. People’s lives change. If you’ve switched jobs, put a new addition on your home, or had a new baby who’s dependent on your income, you may not realize that your insurance no longer covers everything you care about. Regularly checking in with our clients is crucial if we’re going to keep helping them for life. It means we will build relationships.”

Building Maintenance Management upgrades apartments! By David Scheller

Building Maintenance Management’s ambition is to be the complete solution for property management in the greater Twin Cities area. Naturally, this means they’ve got to do quite a lot. Their proprietary software, which provides an all-encompassing overview of a commercial or apartment building’s maintenance needs in real time, has proven to be of inestimable value to their clients. BMM’s well-trained maintenance technicians, who may visit a building only as they are needed or even go so far as living on-site, ensure that their clients can always expect their buildings to run as smoothly as can be. Their exciting new After Hours Emergency Maintenance Service means that even the most poorly timed mishap will only pose the smallest inconvenience possible.

happy to work with smaller investors who may only have one or two properties, but have partnered with industry leaders including Great Lakes Management, Ebenezer, and Aeon as well. That kind of versatility has made our service very popular.” Versatility is the name of the game. Whether your units need new flooring, cabinets, lighting, appliances, bathroom fixtures, or just a fresh coat of paint, BMM has got the tools and the experience to do the job right. Their contractors’ skills have not only been sharpened over the course of countless previous projects, but also by regular exercise at BMM’s on-site training facility. These men are the paragon of competence. Given the amount of volume that they promise, BMM gets great rates on the industry’s best quality materials from vendors as well. These they can store at one of their five enormous warehouses if the job site simply hasn’t got room for them, and they’re also happy to work with materials provided by their clients.

That alone still wouldn’t be enough to accomplish BMM’s goal of being the only friend a property manager needs, of course. Sometimes a multi-family property calls for a dramatic overhaul, especially if it’s an older one that must compete with all the beautiful new class A apartment communities that are popping up around the Twin Cities like mushrooms. That’s why if your apartment building falls anywhere short of perfection, BMM is standing by to upgrade its units top to bottom — fast, and for a price you’ll agree is reasonable.

BMM’s process is so streamlined that they’re even able to upgrade a unit when it’s tenanted, always taking caution to minimize the amount of intrusion the project will impose. They’ve only just completed a total overhaul of a completely occupied fourplex, an undertaking that took one week. The tenants were as happy with the procedure as they were their new stainless steel appliances and granite countertops!

“We have been upgrading units for five years now,” said Mason Myers, BMM’s director of sales and marketing. “We’ve done everything from quick duplex flips to several half million dollar projects at larger buildings. We’re

“We do everything we can to make a project run smoothly and according to schedule, but we know there are always going to be hiccups, especially with bigger jobs,” said Mason. “That’s why customer service is so important to

INC us. When something goes wrong, we stand behind it and fix it quickly, with as little impact on the client as possible. If our client picks out any blemish or oversight during the final walkthrough, we fix it for free. Our simple goal is to make our client happy, and free up their time so they can better focus on what makes their investment property profitable.”

FLOORING & KITCHENS

FLOORS 2 KITCHENS

YOUR STYLE, OUR CRAFT

Imagine you are have a rental unit. Its countertops are beginning to peel and fade. Its flooring is no better shape. And its cabinets, though functional, leave everything else to be desired. You know that replacing these features would attract the best tenant, but you don’t savor the task ahead: hiring three different contractors, scheduling them sequentially so they’re not all dancing on top of each other’s heads while they’re working, and finally hoping they all did their jobs right. When you hire Floors 2 Kitchens, you no longer have to worry about a thing. The locally owned service has catered to Twin Cities property managers for more than two decades now, and their trifold specialty in flooring, cabinetry, and granite countertops makes them the one to call whether you need only one or all three.

VendorGuideUSA.com

Will Lemieux is no latecomer to his industry. He began learning flooring in college, and joined a journeyman upon graduating so he could master the finer points of his craft. Will’s prowess grew right alongside his clients’ portfolios. That growth became so rapid that his clients’ countertop and cabinet guys couldn’t keep up. Rather than let so many projects fall behind schedule, Will learned what he needed to pick up the slack. Within a few years Will founded Floors 2 Kitchens and began offering his multifaceted expertise to the multifamily and commercial real estate markets.

“Hiring one contractor to take care of every surface in your units’ kitchens saves you a lot of money,” said Will. “Our streamlined approach reduces the length of a single flip by as many as eight days. We once installed all the granite and flooring in a newly constructed 140-unit apartment building in only 35 days. That let our client enter the lease-up phase way ahead of schedule and make thousands more dollars than they had anticipated. “Speed and convenience are great, but without quality workmanship they’re ultimately not worth very much. The biggest thing that sets Floors 2 Kitchens apart is

my men. Some of them have been with me for over 10 years. I know exactly how much experience each one of them has and what they’re able to do for our clients. And I only trust them to do our work – not subcontractors that I haven’t vetted. That’s why we’re able to replace every surface in a kitchen in under a day, and why we almost never make a mistake. “Any contractor should admit to making mistakes sometimes. But you’ll find very few who will stand behind their work like we do. If you ever need us to return onsite for any reason, my two managers and I are only a phone call away. “After so many years in business we know the best materials for every job as well. All of our cabinets are sourced right here in the Midwest, either from Minnesota or Illinois. We carry nylon carpeting that is affordable but which still lasts a lot longer than polyester. We prefer to lay granite on solid wood surfaces because it adheres to them better, but we will make particle board work well if our client prefers it. We’re qualified to use any materials our client specifies, but are equally prepared to make any recommendations they might need. “We also help our client to expedite their project by offering color-coordinated selections for flooring, carpeting, and granite. These color schemes have all been chosen by the same designer, and they’re sure to make any unit look great with next to no effort on our client’s part. “We’ve taken care of massive projects that have totalled several hundred units. We’re just as happy to flip a single family rental home’s kitchen in a single afternoon. Wherever you need us, Floors 2 Kitchens is there.”

SANITIZER KIOSK

DIGITAL SCREEN GROUP By David Scheller

In 1922, a real estate company in New York bought the world’s first radio commercials. Three weeks later they had made $27 thousand in sales — not bad for a $200 investment. Only 19 years later Bulova paid as much as $9 for the world’s first televised advertisement. While only four thousand televisions could have shown the brief ad which preceded a Dodgers game, Bulova’s sales skyrocketed instantly. When a new opportunity to advertise arises, its earliest adopters tend to succeed best. That is why Digital Screen Group is poised to deliver so much. The company’s founders Mike Stevens and Scott Holgate, career real estate and advertising men respectively, didn’t see the rise of hand sanitizer stations as some modern inconvenience. They saw it as a new, exciting, and exceedingly effective opportunity to get companies’ messages in front of prospective customers. The idea seems so simple that you might feel bad for not thinking it up yourself. The hand sanitizer station now exists in every public space. People go straight toward it even when they’re not compelled to. They stand before the station for a few seconds, receiving peace of mind as they do so. What better space could exist for advertising?

VendorGuideUSA.com

“We have spent the past few months vetting the technology,” said Mike. “The dispenser itself is what people are accustomed to using every day: hands-free, motion activated, durable enough to stand up to constant use, mounted on a stand or wall, and adjustable to dispense any amount of liquid hand sanitizer. It could even come with an optional built-in infrared thermometer so it can detect if the user has a fever, which presents great added value to medical spaces.

“The digital screen is eye level, high definition at 1920x1080, available in two sizes, and visible at most any angle. But best of all, it can be accessed by either Wi-Fi or hard-wired ethernet. Anyone can master the user-friendly software and in a matter of minutes begin displaying their own custom messages – from anywhere on earth!”

“We see Digital Screen Group’s attentiongrabbing hand sanitizer kiosks complementing virtually any kind of public space,” said Scott. “Apartment communities, hotels, offices, churches and industrial spaces can display their own messages and announcements. Restaurants, retailers, sports venues and other commercial spaces can display exclusive offers and special promotions. And we’re finding that the complete novelty of this advertising medium is making everyone stop to take note, even when they don’t want hand sanitizer. “We have two different types of clients. The first orders our kiosks for their own internal use. We deliver the kiosks, provide training on how to use them, and then continue to offer any support our clients may need on top of the two-year warranty. Our second type of client utilizes their new kiosks and allows us to place ads to provide passive revenue from advertisers that we source. “Our kiosks’ digital displays are completely customizable. Depending on where they’re located, they let us reach relevant target audiences.” For example, if they are placed in a residential environment, we’d seek ads from local restaurants, bars, fitness clubs, auto dealerships, etc. If in a commercial space, we may look for ads from insurance companies, national chains and tenants within the space. “Advertisers appreciate how effectively our kiosks’ bright, colorful, and animated displays reach their potential customers. Even if they buy space on only two or three carefully selected screens, they can connect with thousands of the right people weekly. We project that we’ll coordinate hundreds of displays throughout the Twin Cities by the end of 2020, and we’re eager to share our revenue with any local businesses that are ready to embrace the future of advertising.” To learn more about Digital Screen Group’s groundbreaking technology and the effortless revenue it can offer your business, please visit digitalscreengroup.com or call 952.460.1916.
