Full Property Management Service
Our management service is designed to give peace of mind to you and deal with all issues associated with your rental properties. As there is no Landlord / Tenant communication, all matters between Tenant and Landlord will be dealt with directly through our office. The key elements of this service are all the Let-Only services plus the following:
- Maintenance – We will be responsible for making practical decisions regarding the upkeep of your property. However, for any major repairs, you will be contacted with an estimated cost prior to commencement of any work.
- Our Management Team operate a 24hr call out service where necessary and can cater for individual properties and developments of all types and sizes.
- Rent Collection – Rent is paid monthly in advance directly to our Client Account. Invoices for any maintenance work or fees are deducted, and the balance sent to you by the 8th day of each month. A detailed statement and copies of any maintenance invoices will be sent to you each month.
- Keyholder – We will retain possession of a set of keys of your property for use in emergency situations.

- End of Tenancy – 30 days Prior to an expiration of tenancy, we will contact your tenants to ascertain whether they will renew their lease agreement or intend to vacate the property. Should the tenants wish to vacate, we will re-let the property and undertake a thorough inspection on the day the tenants hand over keys to ensure it is left clean & in good condition. Any costs for repairs, replacements, or cleaning will be deducted from the deposit held.
- PRTB Mediation – Should the situation arise that a dispute is brought before the Private Residential Tenancies Board by a tenant, a representative from Kelly Bradshaw Dalton will attend the hearing on your behalf.
