INTRODUCTION
The quality management of your property
is a very serious matter.
Good management of your property has many
benefits, including maximising capital returns as well
as preventing costly mistakes.
Property management is not only about finding
the right tenant. It now involves countless pages of new
legislation. Compliance with this legislation is mandatory
for all owners and failing to do so can produce devastating
results. It has been noted Insurance companies have begun
to use breaches of compliance to avoid settlement of some
claims.
Property management is a very serious business
and must be approached in a professional manner. Here
at PRDnationwide - Noosa we take a highly professional
approach to managing all our properties, residential,
commercial or holiday.
We hope you find the following information
helpful and interesting. We look forward to discussing
our services with you in the future.
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AIMS
PRDnationwide - Noosa provides a professional
property management service giving properties the attention
required protecting the landlord's valuable asset.
To achieve this we have adopted procedures
that have been tested by many reputable offices associated
with the Real Estate Institute and PRDnationwide Pty Ltd.
We are also aware of the need to keep up to date in the
technological fields.
The property management division is fully
computerised allowing us to offer precise and up to date
information.
Our aims for successful property management
include:
á To provide the best service to landlords
at all times by communicating and listening to your needs
and acting accordingly.
á To maintain a professional service and continually develop
procedures to improve our service.
á To keep abreast of the changes in the industry and to
advise you of these changes immediately.
á To maximise the return on your property.
KEEPING THE LANDLORD INFORMED.
Regular, routine property
inspections.
We pride ourselves at PRD Nationwide - Noosa
on conducting "routine inspections" thoroughly every three
months. We also carry out extensive entry inspections
at the time the lease commences and a thorough exit inspection
when the tenant vacates the property.
á The exterior and interior of properties
are inspected every three months.
á Full written reports are sent to landlords within 2
days of the inspection. These reports outline the condition
of the property and any recommendations.
Maintenance.
á Maintenance and repairs are arranged according
to landlord instructions and with compliance with the
Act in the case of an emergency.
á Under the Residential Tenancies Act (1995) several changes
have been made regarding maintenance.
á It is now the responsibility of the owner to maintain
the property in a 'reasonable' standard and to repair
and maintain all chattels to a level consistent with the
entry inspection report.
á It is also the owner's responsibility to ensure security
standards are of a 'reasonable' standard for a tenant.
Door locks, window locks and security screens must be
upgraded to an acceptable level.
Maintenance Staff:
The tradespeople and maintenance staff we
engage must have the following:
á Current Workers Compensation coverage
á Current Public Liability
á Current licenses relevant to their trade
á Offer competitive rates.
á Demonstrate reliability and professional standards.
We will, if requested, use tradespeople
of your own choice provided they meet the above criteria.
