Experienced Letting Consultants ensure that all the terms and details are well understood and handle the lease signing administration.

All transfers are done electronically ensuring an efficient and cost effective alternative. Net rental income is electronically transferred to landlord’s nominated bank accounts as soon as practically possible following the collection of the rental.
· Vetting of Tenants and Credit Control: All tenants are scrutinized through a strict credit-approval procedure. Applicants are rigorously screened with credit and reference checks prior to signing a lease agreement. Enquiries are made through (ITC) “Information Trust Centre” to verify the credit status of a potential tenant. The expense of this service is covered by Maximise Property Group. Every tenant is strictly monitored by our company’s administrative department to ensure effective and timeous collection of outstanding rentals. In addition to this, we will undertake the necessary legal action to ensure correct procedural aspects, should it be necessary in terms of the latest rental law that came into effect on 1st April 2001.
· * Landlord Protection Policy*: We can provide you with a unique Landlord Protection Policy underwritten by Hollard Insurance Partners. The policy guarantees settlement of legal fees up to R40 000.00, handles all legal procedures and complicated evictions and provides up to three months rent during an eviction and one month if the tenant has absconded. A monthly premium of as little as R35 plus 1% of the rent will remove the risks of renting domestic dwellings. We will build the premium into the rent, resulting in the tenant paying for the insurance.
· General building maintenance. We will monitor the relevant bodies corporate in terms of maintenance requirements in properties under our control. This also applies to maintenance requirements to your own specific property investment, which we will administrate on your behalf.
