OVER VIEW In the past, there have been perceptions by both landlords and tenants that the quality of service delivered in Property Management has been substandard or inconsistent. The purpose in the development of the following Service Standards has been twofold: 1. To establish a set of minimum service delivery levels. In other words, everyone in the Property Management Team agrees to, and is required to provide a level of service not less than the quality in which you expect. 2. To provide agencies that use and abide by these Service Standards, with an opportunity to attract more new business compared with agencies that have no established Service Standards. We understand that at various times being a landlord can be rather stressful. Our goal is to ease this stress by keeping you fully informed about your property and to ensure a high level of service and communication.
