In property management, bigger isn’t always better.
You’ll see companies advertising hundreds of doors under management. On paper, that sounds impressive. But here’s the question that matters:
How much attention is each property actually getting?
At Novich Property Management, I’ve intentionally chosen a different path — one built on quality over quantity.
I Don’t Want to Be the Biggest. I Want to Be the Best.
I’m not trying to manage every property in Madison and Beaverhead Counties.
I’m building a portfolio I can genuinely care for.
Because when a property manager takes on too many units, something always gives:
Communication slows down
Maintenance becomes reactive instead of proactive
Tenants feel unheard
Owners feel out of the loop
That’s not how I operate.
Your Investment Deserves Real Attention
For most of my clients, their rental property isn’t “just another door.” It’s:
A retirement plan
A long-term investment
A family asset
A seasonal home
Or a property with deep personal meaning
That deserves intentional oversight.
I keep my portfolio at a size that allows me to:
Personally check on properties
Build real relationships with tenants
Coordinate maintenance quickly
Monitor seasonal risks (especially Montana winters)
Communicate clearly and consistently
Rural Property Management Requires Hands-On Oversight
Managing properties in places like Twin Bridges, Sheridan, Ennis, and Dillon isn’t the same as managing apartments in a large metro area.
Here, properties often involve:
Septic systems
Wells
Irrigation
Snow load concerns
Extreme temperature shifts
Rural vendor coordination
That level of oversight doesn’t scale well when you’re trying to manage “as many doors as possible.”
I Grow Intentionally
Yes — I am growing.
But I grow carefully.
I only take on properties that:
Align with my standards
Allow me to maintain my level of service
Fit within my operational capacity
Because once service slips, trust slips.
And trust is everything in property management.
What This Means for Owners
It means:
You’re not a number.
Your calls get returned.
Your property gets monitored.
Your tenants are screened with care.
Maintenance isn’t ignored until it becomes an emergency.
It also means I may not be the right fit for everyone — and that’s okay.
I believe in partnerships, not volume.
