A managing agent handles tenant communication, rent collection monitoring, maintenance and contractors, inspections, compliance reminders, landlord approvals and tenancy administration.

With Move Forward Group you also get a named Property Manager and a dashboard showing rent, maintenance, documents and inspections in one place.

Regulations can change and circumstances vary. Move Forward Group provides property-management support but landlords should obtain specialist legal advice where required.
