The idea of taking over the management of a building can seem attractive to the owners of leasehold properties, but the reality is that there is a lot of time-consuming work involved. Some of it is administrative, such as collecting and accounting for service charges; and some demands professional expertise, such as ensuring the property complies with the most current fire safety legislation. Some of the work requires tact and discretion, particularly when it comes to asking property owners to contribute financially.
The service we offer your Resident Management Company is one borne out of the frustrations we felt when we were leaseholders. We will make management decisions based on what is best for your property, rather than what is easiest. We will proactively plan ahead and deal with problems before they become a crisis. We will communicate clearly and effectively.
It was our frustrations with that experience that led us to managing the property ourselves, and from there to a more professional and efficient approach. We are determined that you will not suffer from the same frustrations that we did.
