Do you manage your property yourself? If so, we are not able to assist you.

Your property must be managed by an Approved Property Management Company who will undertake the necessary and lawful steps to manage the property efficiently, thus minimising the risks involved in Residential Property Investment.

With their knowledge and professionalism, they manage the property in the best interest of both the Landlord and Real Landlord Insurance. The property owner is the Insured Party, however the Property Management Company is the Administrator of the Policy, hence the reason why all correspondence, invoices etc. must be directed through them,
they will also process a claim on your behalf, providing all the necessary documentation and evidence to assist with the claim procedure.

Contact REAL to find out where approved property management companies are in your region.
