SELECTING THE RIGHT PROPERTY MANAGER
While fees are importantly creating that long-term working relationship between you and your property manager is critical, so choose carefully.
Remember you get what you pay for and the cheapest is NEVER the best. Ask questions, check their qualifications, experience, work history, location, references, etc. Interview your potential local property manager and find out everything about them, most importantly their industry and area knowledge.
Selecting the right Property Manager is one of the most important investment decisions you’ll make and can mean a difference not only to your overall returns, but also the enjoyment of your investment.

SETTING THE OPTIMUM RENT PRICE
Setting an achievable rental price is one of the most critical decisions of any investment and can be costly if you get it wrong. Many clients forget that it is the market that sets the price; not the agent, not the owner and is certainly not based on “the repayment figure for your loan” nor “what you were getting previously”.
Too many times we hear “but we need this much to pay the mortgage”. Whether it be reletting or renewal of your investment property, we consider all market conditions when assessing rent including the likelihood of any vacancy period. It is so important to ensure you and your investment property manager get the price correct.
VACANCY IS LOST INCOME
Periods of vacancy are converted to lost income, the cost of which can never be recovered. Also, be wary of the agent that claims they can get a higher than market rent for you. The reality is that no agent will get you more than the market is willing to pay.
