The PM Made Easy products were created by real estate / property management experts, based on experience and research. They are based on U.S. Federal Law and common property management issues. If you are not based in the U.S., you will have to customize any included law or practices to your area.
You, the buyer, are still responsible for:
- reviewing the products to ensure they comply with the laws that govern your business
- editing the products to comply with federal, state, and local laws
- editing the products to comply with any updates on all laws
- customizing the products to align with your business policies and practices
- consulting with your attorney prior to putting the customized documents into use
Read each product description to find out more details of the specific contents.
Each purchase includes:
- a downloadable .zip file (articles are .doc) for each product – you extract the contents before you customize the documents
- a PDF file with thorough instructions that provide time-saving tips for customizing the documents through Microsoft Word® (click here to install the free Adobe PDF Reader)
After you buy a PM Made Easy product you’ll receive an email with a receipt and an email that contain a link to download your purchase. The download is available for 4 days. You can download four times.
PM Made Easy are individual products much like buying a downloadable book. We are not a software company. We offer digital download products that you can customize to your business. Because there is no way to know who updated their products and when, we have no way of knowing when they need an update. However, we invite you to sign up for our free email newsletter, Professional Management Matters. We use this newsletter to educate everyone about laws and industry changes that might impact your operations. It is up to you to update your products on a regular basis.
You’ll download your purchase and extract the customizable Microsoft Word® documents from the .zip file. Easily add, remove, or modify any part of a form, manual, or document. Watch the following demo video to see how you’ll use Microsoft Word® to customize the product. The instructional video below references LandlordSource which is the former name of PM Made Easy. The content is still relevant although the name has changed.
When you checkout through our shopping cart, you will select the PayPal checkout option. PayPal is an industry leader in online payment processing, providing a secure, trustworthy transaction interface.
Through PayPal, you can submit payment via:
- credit card
- PayPal balance
- Bank transfer
You don’t need to create or log into a PayPal account to purchase. If you do not have a PayPal account, you can still pay using a credit card.
The product downloads are available after the PayPal transaction has fully processed. Downloads will not activate until PayPal fully processes the payment. The payment is generally processed shortly after purchase. However, in some cases, it can take up to 24 hours for PayPal to review and process a transaction.
Due to their electronic nature, the PM Made Easy products are non-refundable. If you experience difficulty downloading a product, please contact us at [email protected] to request assistance. We’ll help you with your purchase.
We recommend you maintain backups for the original PM Made Easy product and the version you customize for your own property management company at all times. Then you are sure to have a copy of the most recent version if you have computer issues or another unforeseeable situation occurs. It is your responsibility to keep an ORIGINAL Copy on a thumb drive or in the cloud or on an external hard drive – basically in a safe place.
The PM Made Easy product downloads are available for 4 days after your original purchase. After 4 days, the download link expires. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you download your purchase IMMEDIATELY.
We DO NOT OFFER REPLACEMENTS. If you purchased your product more than 4 days ago, you will need to purchase the product again.
If your business is only Property Management or only Real Estate Sales, then buy the correct version of the Policy & Procedure Manual.
If your business does both here is how to decide. If the same agent will do Sales AND Property Management, then get the Combo version. If you have different people working in different departments (ie Sales agents only do Sales, and Property Managers only do PM) then get the individual Policy & Procedure Manual for each department.
All PM Made Easy products are digital downloads. You will be sent several emails immediately after purchase. One is a receipt showing your purchase. The other email is a Product & Instruction email from PM Made Easy that has instructions such as 4 days to download your product, number of times you can download product and at the bottom of the email instructions are the LINKs to download your product. If you don’t receive it. Look in your Spam or Junk folder for the email. Also, often people will use a different email address when making the purchase so check other emails you might use to see if the email with the links is in that alternate email box.
We do not offer returns. All products are digital downloads. All purchases made are FINAL.
No unfortunately, all PMME products are digital downloads and we are no refunds or returns allowed.
No, we do not offer upgrades. Our products are created in MS Word they are not software in and of themselves. Products are updated annually and hopefully you are customizing the products to your State and how you conduct business. There is no way we can offer an upgrade.
No, we do not provide customer support to help with editing. We suggest that you refer to the product instructions, that come with each product that your purchase, that guide you through most edits that you will make or Google “How to…” to find the answer or video showing you how to make the changes you wish.
