Property Manager / Administrator
Bolton Property Group build, develop and manage a portfolio of properties based in East London Zone 2, and we are looking for an experienced, self-motivated property manager to help manage our growing portfolio.
This is a varied role, which involves both office-based and on-site work. Candidates with experience in identifying and sourcing purchase or development opportunities are desirable as we are currently expanding our portfolio.
The Role:
- Co-ordinating with our maintenance team in repairing and maintaining our properties.
- Advertising and letting properties within the portfolio, including scheduling and attending viewings.
- Ensuring property compliance such as EPC, Gas and Electrical safety checks.
- Knowledge and awareness of relevant legislation within the industry such as Right to Rent requirements, GDPR, Landlord and Tenant legislation, Health and Safety compliance, and Licensing compliance such as HMO and Selective Licences.
- Carrying out property inventories, check-in, and check-out appointments.
- Advising utility companies of meter readings and tenant changeovers.
- Obtaining estimates and co-ordinating repairs with contractors.
- Negotiating and renewing tenancy agreements and rent increases.
