The benefits of property management
Whether you are a first time landlord or a seasoned portfolio landlord, property management has many benefits. You should decide how much personal involvement you wish to have with the tenants and the property. On the one hand you may wish to collect rent and deal with any running repairs yourself, alternatively you may want to stay at arms length, preferring a full property management service.

Tenants are requesting managed properties
Full property management is certainly worth considering if you want things as hassle free as possible. Increasingly we are finding that tenants are only considering properties to rent that are managed by an agency. This is a growing trend and we can understand why – tenants want the reassurance if something goes wrong, that it will be dealt with promptly. And, what’s more, tenants don’t mind paying a premium rent for this peace of mind!
