Celebrating Property Managers
Everyday brings with it a whole range of issues that Property Managers need to navigate, from water leaks to boiler breakdowns that result in no heating and no hot water. The seasons bring with them a raft of “damage” , which include but are not limited to blown down fences, missing roof tiles, excessive cold and other weather related matters.
Whilst the valuers and negotiators land new business, in the background property managers oversee the problem solving, the customer care & customer service elements and the client relationship management - 24/7, 365 days a year.

The Renters’ Rights Bill - Why preparing for change is key to Minimising Risk
I have been decidedly quiet on LinkedIn for the last 4 or 5 days to reflect and take stock of what is happening in the PRS, and to be honest, rest my eyes from all the reading I have been doing over the last 7 months – well more if we factor in the Bill from the previous government.
Research, reading, analysing, interpreting, formatting courses, drafting questions, drafting answers, writing blogs, attending legal seminars & courses, speaking at events, delivering webinars & courses are all part of the remit and require planning. The last time my colleagues and I encountered this volume of work was with the introduction of the Housing Act 2004. I had just embarked on my career in the PRS and sat back whilst my colleagues and barrister / mentor / friend / oracle did the heavy lifting.
