Taking property management to the next level

“We focus on private commercial industrial property clients with single title properties. We will also manage commercial and industrial sectional title complexes and property owners associations, and we have identified a gap for a professional company that is prepared to manage residential properties on behalf of our commercial and industrial clients that have more diversified portfolios,”.

There’s much more to property management than rentals and maintenance. At De La Porte Property Management, we realise that to be entirely effective, a property manager needs to think and operate like an asset manager. In response to that, we have formed De La Porte Property Management, to provide our clients with a tailored service to boost their assets and improve their returns.

Our objective

We have created a property management function embedded with crucial client benefits. Not only are we able to move quickly and adapt easily in a fast-paced environment, but we also apply dynamic management principles to commercial and residential properties, recognising that most shrewd investors have both in their portfolios. With us, service goes far beyond the norm.

Apart from the property disciplines we specialise in, we also recognise the essential role technology plays in the administration of property, as well as in its capital appreciation. The Nicor property software system enables us to provide you with high quality management and accounting functionalities that are key to managing your property assets with improved efficiency. 

What you can expect

Strategic understanding
When it comes to choosing the right property manager, you first need to establish whether they think and act like an asset manager. While some property managers will merely collect rent and do the maintenance, we have a strategic understanding of what it takes to grow your property asset. It’s our objective to maximise the return and optimise the capital growth of your property. 

Senior staff on your account
Our team of highly professional and experienced staff will work directly on your account and respond to landlord queries, tackling any issues that may arise.

Broker and tenant network
It is a major advantage to have an extensive broker and tenant network to keep properties occupied with the right tenants. This will assist by keeping the property manager up to date on local real estate trends, the rental charged by equivalent buildings in the area and the required improvements to keep the property in line with or ahead of its competition.

Maximising income
We maximise income by ensuring recovery of all the expenses the owner is entitled to collect from tenants, in accordance with the lease agreements. We will also ensure that the expenses are market-related and that the suppliers’ charges are fair and the work is being carried out.

Maintenance and aesthetic priorities
It goes without saying that a well-maintained property is more easily let than one where standards are allowed to slide, so aesthetics are extremely important. An aesthetically pleasing property increases the potential rental income of a building by keeping it safe, attractive and clean, and thus attracting more tenants.
