When buying a foreign property it is easy to underestimate how much it will cost to run and maintain, particularly if you plan to rent it to holidaymakers and it is in a remote rural area. Even in a familiar environment managing a house is a time-consuming business but in an unfamiliar culture with a foreign language, the simplest transactions, such as paying property taxes, can require an enormous amount of time and energy.
We have met many busy professional people who have found their dream beginning to turn into a nightmare because they simply do not have the time to deal with the day-to-day management of their investment. Our property management service leaves you free to enjoy your home, confident that paying guests will be professionally cared for and that, when you come to stay, the property will be freshly aired, clean and tidy, with crisply laundered sheets and towels.
Our approach is to provide a managing agent type service, where the property manager takes full responsibility for the running of your property and reports directly to you. Wherever possible arrangements are sought with neighbours so that services are provided as cheaply and cost-effectively as possible by local Pugliese people.
The services include:
Helping you set a budget for running your property
Providing bi-monthly or quarterly reports on income and expenditure
Providing advice on property maintenance and improvements and land management
Generally taking responsibility for all aspects of running your home and managing your land
If you are renting your property to holidaymakers we can manage this business on your behalf, including:
Providing advice on preparing your home for letting
Meeting and greeting guests
An emergency call-out service
Providing and monitoring feedback questionnaires
Designing and maintaining an Information Booklet for guests
