    I own two rental apartments and have been badly let down by both property managers. I replaced one earlier this year and am in the throes of finding a replacement for the one I sacked last week. Their main flaws were non-existent or inadequate inspections, poorly executed repairs, and failure to pass on legitimate tenant concerns.

    I interviewed a couple of prospective managers on Friday, but it is really hard to know how good they will be in practice. I agree that a bad management register would be a huge benefit to landlords.

    In the apartment block that my unit is in there are several tenanted properties. If I lived closer I would go doorknocking to ask how the tenants found their managers, in terms of responsiveness, prompt repairs, etc.

    Otherwise it’s very much a lucky dip. Don’t suppose anyone knows a gem of a property manager in the Manly area?
