It's the little things that make a big difference!
The property management team at LJ Hooker Queanbeyan-Jerrabomberra-Googong are focused on providing a comprehensive & professional approach to the management of their properties & clients. Thorough documentation & systemised management processes are undertaken by very experienced local property managers with extensive local industry experience.
A number of the LJ Hooker Queanbeyan-Jerrabomberra-Googong staff have received both local & national awards for recognition of excellence in property management. The team is structured to provide a high ratio of staff to properties to ensure that all of our rental properties are closely monitored & to enable regular & accurate client communication.
Our job is to put all the information in front of you, so that you can make good, informed choices about your investment property. Whether it's the decision about what rent amount to advertise or navigating through any of the choices all landlord's make about the rental properties, we are working for you.
Sometimes ... people think that the property manger is the "piggy in the middle" of a tenancy ...
The landlord hires & fires a property manager & the agent's fiduciary obligation is to their client, the landlord. We work for you, the landlord; however, we can't do our job for you if we can't attract & maintain quality tenants! Therefore, we must be professional in everything that we do, experts in our field & provide excellent communication. When everyone feels that their rights & responsiblities are respected & when their is a trusted relationship, property management can be done well.
Whether you are overseas or based in Australia, you'll want to make the most out of your real estate investment. You may have plans to purchase an investment property, or already own a home or apartment to rent out to tenants. Either way, LJ Hooker Property Managers can help you maximise your returns - offering a mix of investment and property management to address every possible circumstance on your behalf.
We are the most experienced Property Management Team in the Region !
