SERVICES

Acquisition of real estate

Taking into consideration the scope of your property purchase support is at hand from your first thoughts and considertions to the final Deed of Sale and completion stages. The property type, location, budget all need reflect the dynamics of your intentions with the purchase. It is invaluable having someone to support you that has been through, and guided many clients through, the processes of aquiring property locally, dealing with Agents, Notaries and Vendors from the Promise of Sale (POS) to the Deed of Sale stage, immediately following which the hand over stage. If from a Private Vendor the restyling to your needs is to be addessed, furnishings to be changed, revamped or completely designed a new. If buying form a local developer careful and thorough follow up to completion adn dealing with snag lists is to be thoroughly addressed. Various essential stages dealing with local service providers that one must liaise with to get you up and running: ARMS, being the local Water & Electricity Corporation, TV/Internet providers, insurance. There are also various home or landlord insurances to be considered.

Finishing and furnishing

Depending on time limitations that you may have to follow up on the finishing’s of your property as promised by the developers you will find it essential to have management on the ball to work with the developers to ensure their promises are thoroughly fulfilled (and in a timely manner – I insist on being positive here!).
If you enjoy letting your interior design skills flourish I’m here to support you with local product knowledge and supplier contact, following through with anything that you wish to me handle due to the logistics of deliveries and installations both local and abroad. You have the option to be as involved in the design and furnishing of your property as much as you wish or to take advantage of my services to ensure your property is ready for occupation. Furniture selection, orders, deliveries, installations, inspection of goods and payments thereof can all be taken care of for you.
Finishing and furnishing budgets and standards will depend on the scope of your purchase. Whether your investment is your holiday home or if you have purchased to ocassionally enjoy the apartment but happy to share with family, friends and short term guests giving you the benefit of a little extra income income or if your sole intention is to lease the apartment on a short or long term basis, the clientele to be attracted will very much dictate location and finishings.

Regular site inspections

In your absence I personally inspect your property on a monthly basis, more if requested. Inspections include airing the premises, checking of electrical and water systems and appliances, securing windows and doors. Collection of mail and co-ordination of maid services as necessary. Any maintenance issues that may arise are explained to you, including images, and any appropriate action to be agreed upon supported by proposed quotes from competent maintenance service providers.

Maintenance and handy man services

In light of many years experience I work with a number of different handy man services  for the smaller plumbing, electrical and DIY issues. Larger projects are outsourced to tried and tested Contractors and Turn Key Companies. The necessary supervision, payment of deposits, settlement and inspection of works are carried out throughout any project large or small.

Collection of mail

Correspondence delivered to the property is collected during on site inspections, this correspondnce can either be dealt with for you or forwarded for your attention.

Client specific needs vary depending on the reason for the property purchase.

Rental investment properties

Your real estate investment on the island may be for the purpose of short lets, allowing you, your family or your friends to enjoy the apartment when visiting Malta.

Management of Short lets includes:

Long and short term rental options are available with the support of the management service. Long term rental is supported by checking of a full inventory as a new tenant takes occupancy. Deposits for breakages are collected as are monthly energy deposit for the payment of energy bills attributable to the tenants. Meters are read upon arrival and the request for regular billing is made and settled as necessary using the accumulated energy deposits from tenants.

Short term lets or holiday lets are usually charged at a rate which takes into consideration the energy. Due to the frequency of tenant arrival and departures deposits are collected prior to or upon arrival, the villa or apartment is inspected before and after occupancy.
24/7 support is on hand for the tenants should they need. Whilst tenant needs and demands are dealt with as necessary, the owners best interest is always protected.

Privately owned units within blocks

When owning an apartment in a block you will come across the need to appoint a Condominium Administrator. This is quite often a process carried out by the first few people to buy into that apartment block. There are a number of Condominium Administrators on the island and we can guide you, through experience, with regards to the more reliable of those who budget fairly and provide a high standard of service. It is important to be represented, impartially, from the Condomninium Administrator so that your voice is heard.

Inglis Property Management represents you, the private, individual private property or estate owner and voices your concerns and requests. It is important to appoint separate management for the blocks common areas and your private residencies as this ensures that no conflict of interest can be used against your very best interest if the same block admin is assigned your proxy in your absence at Annual General Meetings for decisions to be taken and budgets to be agreed.

In your absence attendance to AGMs is made and the communication of the respective correspondence is passed to you. You will be made fully aware of the agenda brought in by the condominium management and importantly have the opportunity to raise issues as requested by your good selves or recommended by us.

Fees
An annual fee is applied which is reflective of the property to be managed. Larger properties, villas with pools and palazzo’s may command a higher annual fee due to the size of the property to be inspected and the quantity of issues to be dealt with.
The annual fee covers the standard management services for holiday homes and properties that are not occupied by tenants.
Further services attract relative charges. Extra visits over and above those scheduled monthly can be carried out against a fee.
If you do not have a list of items in your property, and wish to rent, a full inventory is advised. This can be compiled for you at a fee.
Rental collection fees for long and short term tenancies attract a charge of a small percentage of the rent collected.
