What should be expected from a Property Manager?
When deciding whether to employ the services of a Property Manager or to self-manage your investment property, a question you should be asking yourself is, “what is your time worth, and do you know enough to protect you and your property?”
Did you know that Property Managers need to be familiar with over 2,700 pages of legislation just do their job?
Choosing to handover the day-to-day responsibility to a licensed Property Manager can make life a lot easier, reduce your vacancy rate and increase your rental return.
Here are some the tasks Property Managers are expected to perform to look after your investment.
