Careers With Us
Have you ever considered starting your own property management business?
Do you have a keen interest in property?
Do you have plenty of connections in your hometown?
Do you have excellent communication and time management skills and are able to follow well-established procedures?
You might be the exact person we are looking for.
B&N Properties is a progressive independent property management company currently operating in Ashburton, Christchurch, and Marlborough.
We are looking to expand into other areas so are searching for the right people to grow the business.
Customer service is a major focus of ours so we require someone that can communicate very well with property owners, tenants, and tradespeople. Being able to deal with and solve problems in a respectful way is essential.
This opportunity allows you to operate from home, be a self-employed independent contractor earning generous commissions on what you do. You can work the hours that suit you to a large degree but must be flexible at times to allow viewings and tenant inductions at times that best suit the prospective tenants.
You will need an office area in your home.
Why Choose B&N Properties?
If you choose to contract through B&N Properties you have access to a comprehensive procedure system and ongoing support and training.
The B&N office checks rent every day and control rent arrears including tribunal applications and hearings (rent arrears only).
That just leaves you with making sure the tenants are looking after the property by conducting thorough routine inspections, arranging maintenance when required, and insuring great tenants are found when the property is vacant (or becoming vacant).
Because B&N Properties is an independent property management company and we don’t sell properties, that means our sole focus is on providing an outstanding management service. We are always looking at ways of implementing the latest technologies to improve our systems and make it easier for our managers.
What you would need to provide:
- A good office area in your home.
- A toolbox with some basic tools.
- A step ladder.
- All stationary and promotion material, handbooks, etc (although B&N will provide you with enough to get started).
- A highly committed attitude, be motivated, conscientious, and honest, with a good eye for detail and great communication & computer skills. Having good property knowledge is important plus having professional connections in your area is very beneficial.
