Changing property managers starts with a clear handover plan.
A management transition touches timing, records, and the people living in your property. Whether your rental is occupied or vacant, a consultation can identify what needs to move, what needs confirming, and how residents will be kept informed along the way.
What a smooth handover needs to cover
Before a transition consultation, it helps to gather a few key items about your property and your current management arrangement. Bring what you have, we can help fill in the gaps.
Current lease agreements — Copies of active leases, addenda, and any signed disclosures for each unit.
Resident contact information — Names, contact details, and current rent and deposit balances for each resident.
Maintenance and repair history — Recent work orders, vendor contacts, and any open or recurring issues.
Financial records — Recent owner statements, rent ledgers, and outstanding balances or fees.
Move-in condition documentation — Inspection reports, photos, or checklists from the start of each tenancy.
Timing and notice details — Your current manager's notice period and any resident notification requirements.
We'll review this list together during your consultation, nothing needs to be perfect or complete before you reach out.
Questions about handovers and resident communication
Will my current tenants be affected by a change in management?
A well-planned transition should feel seamless to residents. We coordinate the timing of the switch so rent collection, maintenance requests, and lease terms continue without interruption, and we introduce ourselves to residents once the handover is confirmed.What happens if my property is currently occupied?
Occupied transitions are common. The consultation will cover the current lease terms, resident communication plans, and how existing maintenance requests or repair items will be picked up without a gap in coverage.How much notice does my current manager need?
This depends on your existing management agreement. We'll help you review the notice requirements so the switch is handled properly and on schedule.What if I don't have all my records ready?
That's fine to start. Bring what you have to the consultation, and we'll help identify what else is needed and how to request it from your current manager.
