Property Management Associate
The way that people are searching for property is changing, with over 80% of successful home buyers and tenants using the internet to search for property. Combine this with those who spotted their next home through local press advertising or by a ‘for sale’ board in front of the property; then this figure rises to a lot closer to 100%. This means that the traditional estate agency model needs to change, but not at the cost of a quality personal service.

The property lettings and management sector has always offered good opportunities to build a successful business. They were able to offer a modern, high quality service prospered for a number of reasons:
Investment opportunities – those with money to invest are taking advantage of low prices to buy a number of properties and then let them.
New builds – builders are still developing, but are looking to let as the market is slow.
Repossessions – asset management companies are looking to get repossessed properties off their hands, and want management services to look after everything for them.
Accidental Landlords – because individual owners or investment companies and developers can’t sell their property, thus a larger pool of houses become available to let.
More people renting – first time buyers can’t afford to buy, thus they stay in rented property – and stay on contract longer.
