The Evolving Role Of The Property Manager

Matthew Edwards • May 28, 2019

By 2025 the nearly 100-year old title of “Property Manager” will be replaced by titles far more reflective of the role. In the early 1930s, the position began as a Building Supervisor role. Formation of the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM) began to elevate a career in property management.


The title “Certified Property Manager” was created and the status and quality of this role was significantly enhanced. As the real estate industry moves forward, the title, role and responsibilities of the Property Manager will dramatically change. Tomorrow’s Property Managers will be faced more on what’s inside the four walls of the community and could be closer to a General Manager or Concierge at Ritz Carlton.


Our team understands your evolving role and want to be a resource for you, your team and community members. Here are a few ways we can help:


RAP – a web/phone app to help you access vital information about your property from disaster plans to vendor contacts.


Training – your maintenance and leasing team members can be vital to lowering the cost of any size property damage. We use our over 45 years of experience to provide insights on how to prevent, report and manage a property damage event.


We are accredited in the state of Mississippi and Louisiana to provide CE hours to a growing number of property management professionals.

Meet The Team | Marcela Argueta

By Christina Mullins • July 9, 2025
Saying Hi to July! The summer is here—and so is the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season. No matter what it brings, you can be assured that our team at Guarantee Restoration Services will be there when you need us most. Meet the Team: Marcela Argueta Every month, I have the opportunity to showcase our many awesome team members. For July, we are shining the spotlight on Marcela Argueta , who serves as a Lead Technician at our New Orleans location. She was promoted to that position in January 2025 . From Honduras to GRS Marcela was born and raised in La Ceiba, Honduras , also known as “la novia de Honduras” —which translates to “the bride of Honduras.” She moved to the U.S. in December 2016 after earning her bachelor’s degree in nursing from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras . Marcela is currently approved and ready to take her exam to become a registered nurse in the U.S. Before joining our team in August 2022 , she worked as both a nurse and a homemaker . Life Outside of Work Marcela is a proud mother of two—her son, Sebastian (15) and daughter, Eleanor (5) . When she’s not working, she loves spending quality time with her children and extended family. Fun fact: her half-sister, Brenda , also works at GRS in our Baton Rouge office! One of Marcela’s favorite pastimes is going for walks in the park. She says she often uses this time to meditate and reflect—thinking about what she’s done well and what she could improve.
