Should you use a property manager?
After purchasing your investment property, the next key decision you will need to make is whether you will employ a property management team to help you, or whether you will manage it yourself.
Although many investors are financially-savvy, when it comes to finding tenants, dealing with day-to-day property issues or legal jargon they are left with many questions unanswered. Hilton Parkes believes that real estate is about people, and more importantly about you our investors and vendors.
