Landlord

Your investment property deserves careful management, clear communication and regular attention. At Ray White New Plymouth, our property management team helps landlords stay on top of the day-to-day responsibilities that come with owning a rental property.

Managing a rental involves much more than collecting rent. From finding suitable tenants and overseeing maintenance to keeping up with tenancy requirements and Healthy Homes obligations, there are many details that need to be handled properly.

Our approach is focused on keeping your rental property well managed while providing you with clear updates throughout the tenancy.

Property Management for Landlords

Our property management services can assist with key areas of managing your investment property, including:

• Marketing your rental property and managing tenant applications
• Tenant selection and tenancy documentation
• Rent collection and ongoing rent management
• Routine property inspections
• Maintenance requests and property maintenance
• Tenancy compliance and landlord obligations
• Healthy Homes requirements
• Communication with tenants throughout the tenancy
• Rental property reporting and financial information

For landlords who manage their own tenancy but need professional guidance, Ray White’s landlord consulting service can also provide support with areas such as market rent reviews, tenancy documentation, general tenancy compliance, Healthy Homes Standards, property maintenance, tenancy breaches and Tenancy Tribunal matters.

Looking After Your Investment Property

Owning an investment property comes with ongoing financial and compliance considerations. The Ray White Landlord Information Guide highlights areas including claimable expenses, Healthy Homes compliance costs, interest deductibility, ownership structures and the differences between long-term rentals and other rental options.

Property management fees and commissions for managing a tenancy are identified in the guide as claimable expenses, subject to the applicable tax rules. As tax circumstances can vary, landlords should speak with their accountant or tax adviser about their individual situation.

Healthy Homes is another important part of rental property ownership. New Zealand rental properties must meet the applicable standards covering heating, insulation, ventilation, draught stopping, moisture ingress and drainage.
