Commercial-property management responsibility, service and reporting workbook
Commercial-property management proposals are easier to compare when each provider receives the same non-sensitive operating brief. This helpful preparation resource from PickYourPro.ai keeps lease interpretation, compliance, safety, accounting and other professional decisions with qualified people while organizing the responsibility, service, communication, reporting and handoff questions that belong in a written proposal.

Preparation and proposal comparison only, not property-management, leasing, brokerage, legal, accounting, tax, insurance, emergency, accessibility, building-code, engineering, environmental, energy, security or safety advice. Qualified professionals, advisers and authorities must confirm property-specific duties and current requirements.

How to use this resource
Use neutral labels such as Property A, Occupant Group A and Vendor Category A. Record roles, operating context and open questions—not addresses, access credentials, tenant names, lease copies, financial records or incident details. Give every provider the same brief and ask them to document responsibilities, assumptions, exclusions, communication routes, reporting and transition support.
Open the PDF in a form-capable viewer, save a copy, then fill it in. Reopen your saved copy to check your answers. You can also print the blank pages and write by hand. Your answers are not submitted to PickYourPro.ai.
DEFINE MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Ask the provider to place included, excluded and shared responsibilities in writing.
CHECK PROPOSAL READINESS
Tick what is organized. These checks do not approve a lease, procedure, vendor or operating decision.
QUESTIONS FOR THE PROPERTY MANAGER
Record the answer and where it appears in the proposal or supporting documents.
COMPARE THE SAME PROPERTY BRIEF
Use Provider A and B. Clarify unlike responsibility, reporting or transition assumptions before comparing proposals.
USE IT RIGHT NOW
Property Management preparation checklist
- Use the same non-sensitive property and operating brief with every provider.
- Keep addresses, access credentials, tenant data, leases and financial records outside this workbook.
- Separate owner, manager, tenant-facing and vendor responsibilities.
- Ask who triages work orders and who authorizes each category of work.
- Request written vendor onboarding, documentation and escalation responsibilities.
- Document communication channels, records and reporting cadence.
- Assign continuity, after-hours and transition roles without creating an emergency plan here.
- Keep lease, legal, compliance, safety and accounting decisions with qualified people.
Questions for the property manager
- How will you confirm the property mix, operating context and responsibilities before service begins?
- Which owner, manager, tenant-facing and vendor duties are included, excluded or shared?
- How will work requests, approvals, vendors and after-hours routing be documented?
- What communication records, inspections and recurring reports are included?
- Which systems, documents and responsible roles are needed for onboarding and ongoing service?
- How will continuity, termination, data export and transition handoff be managed?
Write down the answers and any exclusions. If two proposals describe different work, clarify the difference before comparing their totals. Leave unanswered points blank until the professional confirms them.
