Why should I hire a Property management company to manage my property?

If you have the time, patience and skillset to manage your property, and live in close proximity to the property, then you are likely the best candidate to manage your property. But not all property owners are lucky to have all those attributes. That's where a Property management company comes in. We are professionals who do just this day in and day out.

In Chennai, it is tradition to NOT clean up the house when tenants leave. Ask your elders, they will confirm it. So, we will have to do the basic clean up, which is negligible anyway. We will do an inspection & inventory check right after tenant leaves and charge the tenant for any damages caused to the property, excluding normal wear and tear.

We work with the tenant to find out reasons for late payment. Most of the time, the tenants are busy and forget to pay, which is not as much of a problem. But if the tenant has trouble paying due to other reasons, we first try to work with them to resolve such issues in future, if not, we’ll have them vacate the property.

Local broker network is our strength. Depending on location, this is where you get more than 50% of the leads from. Apart from this we also advertise in Newspapers, Local dailies, Internet and Corporates.
