Preparing your property before appointing a professional management company ensures a smooth transition and better long-term results. Proper preparation also helps attract quality tenants.
Begin by ensuring the property is clean, safe, and fully compliant with legal requirements. Complete any necessary repairs, servicing, and safety checks, including gas, electrical, and fire safety inspections.
Next, organise all relevant documents such as certificates, warranties, appliance manuals, and existing tenancy agreements. Clear documentation allows the management company to operate efficiently from day one.
Finally, set clear expectations with your property manager. Discuss communication preferences, maintenance budgets, and reporting schedules. A well-prepared property and clear agreement create a strong foundation for successful professional management.
