Expense Budgeting
Budgeting is a key element in the property management process, as it is the basis for controlling costs, monitoring revenues and optimizing business activities. At First Facility, we view budgeting as a strategic tool that enables property owners to make informed decisions, plan resources and improve the efficiency of managing their properties.
Our approach to budgeting encompasses all aspects of a property’s financial planning – from operating costs and maintenance to revenues (rent, services, additional revenues). In this way, we ensure that every dinar is optimally used to increase the value of the property.
What does our budgeting service include?
Preparation of the facility’s annual budget: Based on an analysis of past results, market conditions and planned activities, we prepare a detailed budget for each property. The budget includes operating costs (maintenance, utilities, security, cleaning) and revenues (rent, services, additional revenues), including an estimate of unplanned costs.
Budget Execution Monitoring: Throughout the year, we regularly monitor budget execution, analyze deviations from planned values, and provide owners with updated reports with recommendations for optimization or corrective measures.
Cost Planning and Control: We ensure that all costs are carefully planned and controlled, in order to avoid unexpected expenses and reduce the possibility of budget overruns. Through detailed market analysis and negotiation with suppliers, we strive to secure the best price for every aspect of facility maintenance.
Revenue Growth: We develop strategies to maximize facility revenue, taking into account various revenue sources. This includes market analysis, increasing rents, introducing new services, and additional activities that contribute to revenue growth.
Reporting and Analysis: We prepare regular financial reports that include budget performance analysis, trends in revenue and expenses, as well as recommendations for future planning. Based on these reports, owners make strategic decisions about the further development of the facility.
How do we organize budgeting?
Data collection and analysis: Before creating a budget, we collect all relevant information – previous financial reports, market data, anticipated changes in legislation and user requirements. Based on this data, we create the basic structure of the budget.
Revenue and cost projection: We make a precise annual revenue and cost projection, including planned investments, depreciation, repairs and maintenance, taking into account the specifics of the facility and market conditions.
Regular update and adjustment: The budget is not static – we regularly update it to reflect changes in the market, legislation and unplanned costs. Based on monthly or quarterly analyses, we adjust plans and strategies, making facility management more efficient.
Owner involvement in the process: Facility owners have the constant opportunity to be involved in the budgeting process through meetings, reports and consultations, ensuring that all decisions are aligned with their business goals and strategy.
