Although property management is a line of business that we have heard frequently, its importance becomes even more obvious lately since we spend most of our time in our homes (as our electric cars do). Studies proved that over 80 percent of EV charging happens at home or work. We can say now for most of us our work is also located in our home too. In this article, we’ll talk about why EV Charging is must for a successful property management, and how you can create value and generate income with our new campaign: “Recommend and Earn with Bluedot”, which brings a new breath to property management. (Spoiler: Anyone can benefit from this campaign that will make you smile.)

Knowing how to manage your property being a must when you want to be a successful landlord instead of a regular property owner. Screening tenants, property maintenance, setting the budgets, and administration of property rentals are just the tip of the iceberg. Getting in tune with the times, creating an income-generating rental property while increasing the value is only possible with convenient property management.

The global property management market size is predicted to reach USD 23.63 billion by 2026.

It could have been considered as an extra expense before, but the availability of robust real estate software has automated and simplified the tasks. With the contribution of new remote technologies and innovations, all these complex activities can be easily managed thanks to the property managers. Nowadays, this concept becomes inevitable, especially in large housing estates and condos. As a definition property management is a third-party service of operation, control, maintenance, and surveillance of real estate and physical properties. But in practice, it is much more than that. It should be ensured that the current needs and demands of the people residing in this property are also met. One of these needs is the sustainability of the properties and the need for charging stations for flat owners who prefer to use electric cars.

According to McKinsey & Company, EV drivers tend to follow a charging hierarchy that starts at their home. Most individual passenger cars remain parked for eight to 12 hours at night, it is the place where they spend the most time, and home charging can be easy and often cheaper than charging elsewhere. The reasons: in most countries, residential electricity is cheaper than commercial or industrial electricity, and most charging can happen overnight when off-peak electricity prices are lower. However, charging at home is reliable, easier, and more accessible. For all these reasons, it is very valuable for drivers to start the day full of charge and is a reason for preference.

In addition to this, if you are a property owner or manager, you have many reasons to set up EV charging. Firstly, you will satisfy the needs of current electric car owners in your property, which also increases the value of your property. Second, by attracting the attention of potential residents (quite numerous) who own electric cars and value sustainability, you will direct them to your property and increase the amount of rent you can receive. Also, when you look at the returns on your investment in the long term, it is not troublesome to set up a charging station and it is possible to take advantage of EV charger incentives to subsidize this cost. In addition to all these financial gains, by adopting the charging station, you will become part of the e-mobility community and contribute to facilitating the clean energy transition. All these are very important and valuable.
