Owner/Broker Greg Doering speaks with fellow NARPM Member Mike Mengden about the value of having your Property Manager on the TAR Property Management Committee

The #NARPMCentralRegionEducation offers exceptional education courses that are essential to your professional performance and advancement. NARPM offers courses taught by experienced educators who are active NARPM members and principals in their own property management companies. They also bring practical knowledge to the classroom to enhance the learning process.

As the Central Regional Vice President for #NARPM, we are here to talk about the value of TAR, or the Texas Association of Realtors to property managers. With me is my friend and most-of-the-time mentor Mike Mengden, who is also the owner and operator of Terra Property Management here in Houston.

Mike has been a member of the Forms Committee of TAR since 2005 and according to him there are many reasons why realtors should find TAR valuable to their business. First off, is the type of relationship TAR has with realtors that is unique in the state of Texas. Second, there are the phenomenal forms that the TAR made for the use of property managers that has helped them write better leases and better management agreements, in addition to write better things that help protect the realtors, their clients, the tenants and the public.

Mike also states that the TAR has the strongest political action committee in the country for real estate. We're very tuned-in legislatively so when we have issues that we need to bring on a state level, we can go to the TAR and rely on them to take care of it according to legislature, whether it is to promote or stop something, including change existing legislation that's going through the state house right now.

All in all, the TAR helps ensure that we, as property managers have better business practices to protect our clients, ourselves the tenants and the public.
