Managing you own Investment Property – why would you?

What price a headache?

“Save money,” they say.  “It’s easy,” they say.  “Anyone can do it,” they say.  On the face of it, ‘they’ appear to have a point.  On the face of it!  Scratch the Investment Property surface however and there’s a whole untold story behind those glib statements.

Time is Money

At Stills Properties we get it – property investors want to make money, not spend it.  But how valuable is your time?  The old adage ‘time is money’ never rang more true than when it comes to managing your own investment property, because how much of your family time are you prepared to commit to:

* Dealing with late-paying tenants?
* Evicting a bad tenant?
* Finding a new tenant when the current one leaves?
* Performing regular property inspections?
* Organising necessary repairs?
* Keeping up-to-date with applicable legislation?

None of these are 5-minute jobs.  None of them are optional – they must be done and done correctly or you could find yourself breaking the law.  Some of them are simply time-consuming – maybe you can live with that.  Others can be considered unpleasant – can you live with those?  Most importantly, what price would you put on your own and your family’s peace-of-mind?

Who needs the hassle?

How soon before you’re fed-up with the headache of collecting your own rent?  How quickly will you tire of keeping on top of routine maintenance, never mind the emergencies demanding immediate attention regardless of what else you have on your plate?  Would the prospect of enforcing an eviction give you sleepless nights?  Putting a professional buffer between yourself and managing your investment property saves time and reduces stress.
