Why do I need my property managed in my absence?
« Back to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
Many landlords believe that their parents, friends or neighbours can easily manage property on their behalf or that this can be left to maintenance contractors. But that’s only the half of it!
Letting the property is one thing - management is another. It involves collecting rent on a regular basis and demanding it if it goes unpaid; visiting the property regularly to ensure the tenants are taking care of it and while there, checking for general maintenance issues.
If works need to be done, contractors need to be supervised and their accounts paid. Then there’s the issue of renewing tenancies and advising on tax and allowances. Also, an agent will know how to deal with problem tenants including those that default completely on their payments, do not pay or who refuse to vacate on time.
