Why do people have their property managed ?

Investment in commercial property can be a productive and rewarding experience, but not all investors understand the true complexity of managing commercial property.

Successful commercial property investment involves a high degree of industry knowledge and understanding of relevant legislation that only a professional commercial manager can offer.

Here are several reasons to use a commercial property manager to maximise your investment’s potential.

  1. The legislation regarding rent, leasing and tenancies is complicated. It’s vital to get it right. Non-compliance, even when accidental, can lead to conflict, disputes, fines and even court cases.
  2. Tenant selection, through background, financial and ID checks are essential. We have excellent systems and reference tools to filter the most suitable tenants.
  3. Collecting the rent on a regular basis to maintain cash flow is very important and requires a high level of attention.
  4. Maintaining the property by ensuring prompt reaction to repairs, inspections and using a network of reliable, qualified professionals and tradespersons.
  5. Meeting safety standards including Fire Compliance, Asbestos legislation, backflow prevention testing, hazardous materials storage, ensuring all tenants and trades maintain insurances and, specifically with works to be undertaken, provide workplace safety statements to minimise the risk to owners.
  6. We maintain a stringent database to keep on top of rental reviews & lease expiries to ensure the property is leased as often as possible for as long as possible for as much as possible.
  7. An arm’s length relationship with your tenant, knowing things are being dealt with competently allowing you to concentrate on your other priorities.
