Hey Kaz

We are renting through Gillies Group, they're really good.  They come and do regular inspections.  They're very pedantic about ensuring the gardens and lawns are well maintained, there's no cobwebs or mildew inside etc so from the point of the house owner it's brilliant.

See if there is a Quinovic or Crockers Property Management down there. They are franchised so there may be.

I'll ask my cousin what she knows - they live in Upper Hutt but still that may give you an idea.

we are with harcourts (as tenants). they have been fabulous - we ring them about any damage - and they fix it (oh, BTW make sure you have glass insurance with no excess). they do house inspections every three months (unlike LJ HOoker, who we NEVER saw). They consult the landlord frequently - like when we asked if we could have a cat (we could). They were really great to us as tenants and I would imagine as landlords too.

LJ Hooker on the other hand - gave us false information (due to them being dumb, not vindictive). Tried to sell the hosue under us wihtout realising we were on a fixed term. Put pressure on us as well in terms of this. When we looked at the place we had seeveral complaints - especially about the cleanliness of the house. The previous tenants had left weetbix in the cupboards! When we moved in, they hadn't cleaned up or done anything. we complained and they shrugged and said "well, you've cleaned it now"

I always believe that the best property managers are those who are good to both tenants and landlords - afterall if they have a bad rep as landlords, then good tenants will steer clear.]]> Sun, 08 Jun 2008 19:10:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18039&PID=407247&title=property-management#407247 <![CDATA[Property management : We (well I) have found the tennents...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18039&PID=407222&title=property-management#407222 Author: mummy_becks

We (well I) have found the tennents for our house and then I am going to talk to a property manager tomorrow about them just doing the rest.

Why don't you do it yourself? Then you have control over the tenants that you put in your property. We do ours for that reason.]]> Sun, 08 Jun 2008 17:44:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18039&PID=407156&title=property-management#407156 <![CDATA[Property management : Is it for down in the Hutt??? ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18039&PID=407154&title=property-management#407154 Author: mummy_becks
