Agree what will be managed
An owner brief should identify the property, its condition, current occupancy and the tasks you want support with. Tenant sourcing, rent collection, maintenance coordination and financial reporting can involve different instructions and approvals.
Agree the service scope, fees, contact arrangements and spending authority before work begins. Keep building or community management responsibilities separate from management of your individual property.
Prepare for the tenancy
Collect the ownership and unit information, available keys, appliance details, existing warranties and relevant building procedures. A condition record at handover helps make later conversations about repairs and responsibility more precise.
For an occupied property, include the existing lease, payment information, deposit record and any unresolved maintenance items. Personal tenant information should be shared through an agreed appropriate channel when it is needed.
Keep costs and maintenance understandable
Discuss how repair requests will be reported, when quotations are required and who can authorise work. The urgency, warranty position and lease responsibilities can affect the next step. Keep supporting invoices and approvals with the property records.
Owner reporting should make the agreed income, expenditure and outstanding items clear. Compare actual figures with the budget periodically, including service charges and periods without rent, rather than relying only on the annual headline rent.
Tell us about your property
