Before and After Disaster Strikes: Developing the Emergency Procedures Manual, Fourth Edition is designed to be a guide and resource for real estate managers as they create the emergency procedures plan and develop the emergency procedures manual for the properties they manage.
Designed with an all-hazards approach in mind, this fourth edition walks real estate managers through the necessary considerations when preparing for and reacting to a disaster natural or manmade. The focused chapters provide an in-depth exploration of the hazards posed to residential, commercial, industrial, and medical office properties and how they may be addressed.
Covering more than just natural disasters, this edition provides an extensive look at how to address building emergencies from fires, power outages, or hazardous materials spills, to acts of crime and terrorism.
This new edition also includes a section dedicated to exploring and implementing business continuity practices into your emergency procedures plan, demonstrating the importance of business continuity principles, while also providing concrete considerations for how to implement these practices into your business.
Designed to accompany this book is a set of emergency planning forms, which were assembled by the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM®) and its industry partners. These forms, accessible online, are provided in an effort to help establish a baseline of preparedness for any property, and may be customized or adapted to fit each application.

There is never a dull moment in the life of a residential manager.

Part 3: Maintenance and Risk Management—reviewing maintenance and risk management plans, as well as the tools and techniques for conducting inspections to protect residents, guests, and the owner’s asset.
Part 4: Marketing and Leasing—identifying appropriate marketing and leasing strategies and practices to find and retain residents.

If you like this white paper, you may be interested in the other papers on leadership. For additional white papers feel free to access our papers on leadership.
Every management company, regardless of size, needs an established crisis communication plan. You can’t predict when the next crisis will hit, or what it will be about. But you can be pretty certain that there is a crisis just around the corner. Whether it is Ebola, an active shooter, blizzard, measles outbreak, or an act of terrorism—something is coming.
A key component to any emergency preparedness plan is a crisis communication plan. The communication plan identifies how, and what information you need to provide to tenants, the media, the public, and government officials.
IREM’s new “Crisis Communication” White Paper covers what you need to consider in constructing a plan for use in any situation. Every crisis comes with its own specific sets of characteristics that ultimately defy prediction, but there are best practices and protocols that lay a groundwork for response when you are communicating to the people who need information. You can prepare for the unpredictable by adapting the guidelines provided in “Crisis Communication” to your style and your company’s crisis management philosophy.
