The rental industry is being shaken up by the new Labour-led government, making buying a rental property a less attractive proposition to intending landlords. Also,under proposed changes to the Residential Tenancies Act, landlords will need to make sure their rental properties have ceiling and underfloor insulation that meets the new standard by July 2019.

The process of organising, maintaining and managing your rental property is already very time consuming and confusing, and these new measures, aimed at landords, mean that employing a professional property management team is imperative. By using Trust Property Management’s team, you will never have to worry about the difficult job of renting your apartment, home or flat again.

Another function is to collect the rent and depositing same into a dedicated rental account, with daily monitoring meaning they will take immediate action if rent payments are missed.
