Hi There!
I currently self manage our 3 IP's but as I have moved interstate I am considering appointing a property manager... As such I have a few questions I am hoping you can answer or point me to the right place (I can't seem to find threads, but I'm sure there are some!!!)...
Q1 - Can you recommend some good PM's on the Gold Coast (preferably Southern end)
Q2 - What kind of questions should you ask a PM before appointing them? So far I have come up with: what are your rates? what is included within the rates? how do you handle repairs? what references do you request/what checks do you do for new tenants? how involved are we in the selection process with new tenants? Just not sure what else to ask... Can you ask how many properties they personally manage? Can you ask for references? Would they just think you are crazy? (we have previously had a bad experience, hence why we now self manage)
Q3 - Do they give you discounts for multiple properties? We have one untenanted that we want to put through a PM, one that is currently tenanted but we would be happy to put through a PM and one that is rented to someone we know, so we would consider putting through a PM, but only if the price is reasonable.
Thanks heaps in advance!
