Protect NOI. Reduce vacancy loss. Keep DSCR healthy.
Fifth Principle Properties is a Columbus, GA property management team built for owners who underwrite performance, not vibes. We focus on the levers that move your numbers:
- Revenue: market-driven pricing + fast leasing execution to reduce vacancy loss
- Collections: consistent enforcement and clean ledgers to protect cash flow
- Expenses: controlled maintenance standards and vendor pricing discipline
- Asset care: inspections + documentation that reduce surprises and insurance risk
- Reporting: owner-level visibility that supports lender conversations and DSCR reviews
If you own a duplex, triplex, fourplex, or small apartment building in Columbus/Muscogee County, we’ll run it like an operator: stable occupancy, predictable expenses, and documentation that holds up.

Why Hire a Professional Multi-Family Property Manager in Columbus
Case Study: Stabilizing a Underperforming Columbus Asset
A local owner group brought us in after underperformance and below-market rents. Within 6 months, we improved operations, tightened collections, repositioned pricing, and reduced vacancy loss, driving 43% monthly revenue while improving resident quality and response time.
Protect DSCR (Not Just “Collect Rent”)
We run collections and delinquency like an operator. Clear enforcement, clean ledgers, and consistent follow-up to protect cash flow, reduce bad debt, and keep your DSCR from drifting during turns.
Reduce Nonpayment + Eviction Risk
Strict screening (income verification, rental history, background checks) plus consistent notice and documentation. When problems happen, we move fast and stay compliant so you lose less time and less rent.
Increase Economic Occupancy
Market-driven pricing and leasing execution to reduce vacancy loss. We don’t “hope it rents.” We position the unit, syndicate it, manage showings, and track activity so rent and occupancy stay aligned.
Control Turn Cost + Turn Time
Turns kill NOI. We scope make-ready work, coordinate vendors, and push fast re-lease. The goal is simple: shorter downtime, predictable cost, fewer surprises.
Expense Control + Documentation (Insurance-Ready)
Maintenance isn’t just “fix it.” It’s vendor standards, approval limits, and documentation. Photos, invoices, and inspection notes create a record that reduces disputes, supports renewals, and helps with insurance underwriting.
Discover Columbus
Columbus is a workforce-driven rental market with steady demand tied to Fort Benning and major employers. The upside is real, but the outcome lives or dies on operations: vacancy loss, bad debt, turn time, and controllable expenses. We manage Columbus multifamily with a performance-first mindset to protect NOI and keep DSCR stable, not with “set it and forget it” property management.
