Choosing to have your property professionally managed is a big commitment. Historically, many New Zealand landlords prefer to go down the ‘do it yourself’ route, especially if only one or two investment properties are involved. Whilst this works well for some people, many landlords aren’t aware of the complexities or very-real risks involved with property management, which include navigating an ever-changing environment of lending rules, loan-to-value restrictions, interest deductibility changes, and more.

The role of a landlord or property manager these days is so much more than simply coordinating tenancies and rental payments. Legislation and compliance now play a significant role in terms of both the successful management of a tenancy, and also the consequences that come from non-compliance, or failing to meet legal obligations. As our industry sees ever-increasing layers of compliance and legislation, you need to trust you have the right people on board, with the right skills and knowledge to protect you and your investment.
