Why use a professional property manager
A rental property is an investment and it's job is to make money
for you.
One of the big motivators for new property investors is New Zealand's DIY ethic; they can work on the property themselves, fixing it, doing it up, just as they do with their own homes. On one hand this is no bad thing.
On the other hand it’s very easy to lose sight of the investment aspect – that your time and energy has a value and therefore becomes a cost.

Professional Property Managers work in the best interest of the property owner. They remove the
emotional attachment.
When they manage your property they will:
- take responsibility for tenanting your rental property and manage the relationship with the tenant
- ensure that rent is paid on time and in accordance with the tenancy agreement
- see that the maintenance of your rental property is kept up-to-date
- act on your behalf as if they are the landlord so that you have an arm’s length relationship
with the tenants. This is particularly useful in any negotiation, review or termination of tenancy - maintain a comprehensive knowledge of legislation that may affect your investment and keep
you informed
