Whether you're new to owning a rental property, or an experienced investor, it can be difficult knowing how to find the best real estate agent to manage your property. In this article we discuss how to find the best rental real estate management in Newcastle, along with suggested next steps as you consider your options further. When it comes to researching rental real estate management options in the Newcastle area, it can seem like everyone is offering much the same thing, with negligible difference between services provided by different real estate agencies. As a result, property investors sometimes resort to choosing a real estate agent based on purely financial measures such as lowest management fees or highest rent appraisal, but these criteria are flawed if considered in isolation. Don't Choose Based On Highest Rent or Lowest Fees!Did you know that based on a typical rental return of $460 per week, the annual difference between a 6.6% and 7.7% management fee is the equivalent of having your property vacant for just 4 days? Similarly, it is a misconception that a higher rental estimate suggests greater experience or market knowledge from an agency. Sometimes a higher estimate is actually a sign of an inexperienced property manager or a business development manager needing to hit their new business targets for the month by securing another landlord. Far more critical than finding real estate management agency offering low fees or a high rental appraisal is finding an agency that will minimise vacancy and fill your property fast.
