Landlords need letting and management agents more than ever

The day to-day management of properties requires a broad range of knowledge

Cork property agents say more and more landlords are realising they need professional help.

With tenants’ rights increasing and becoming more firmly established in our evolving society on a weekly basis, the world of the landlord has become an ever more complex one. Operating as a landlord and looking after one’s property and one’s tenant is an area that demands more and more expertise. This makes it all the more vital that one uses the services of an experienced and up-to-date management/letting agency.

“It’s so complicated now,” says Mark Rose of Rose Properties in Cork City. “Even before, some property owners would have gone, ‘I’ll look after things myself — I’ve time and I’m well able to do it’ but simply advertising a property and dealing with the response has, of itself, become such a challenging task, almost everybody much prefers to have a professional agent deal with it.”
