Property Management Fees

At Click Property Management, we charge a flat management fee, which is a percentage of the gross rental income. This management fee covers routine inspections, maintenance and repairs, rent collection and management, move-ins and move-outs, and more. There are some other variable fees that are incurred by owners as listed:

Advertising Fees: When listing a property for rent, an advertising fee is charged to cover the cost of high-quality photographs, a video tour of the property, and advertising across multiple online platforms, including Click’s website, Trade Me, realestate.co.nz, and our social media platforms. We also utilize a large in-house database of tenants seeking rentals when advertising.

• Administrative Letting Fee: This fee is charged once a tenant is secured for your property. The fee covers the administration of tenant screening, including credit and reference checks, processing the tenancy application, sorting tenancy agreements, and bond administration.

• Entry Condition Report: This is a one-off fee charged to enable our property managers conduct a detailed entry condition report before the property is leased to tenants. This report includes a full photo report of the property and all included chattels, as well as written notes on the condition. The entry condition report is used as a reference at the end of tenancies and after routine inspections to ensure tenants are taking care of the property.

• Administration Fee: A small yearly administrative fee is charged for end-of-year financial reporting.

• Unforeseen Fees: Unfortunately, unforeseen events may arise that lead to additional fees beyond our control. These costs could include insurance claims, tenancy tribunal applications, and similar expenses.

Property management fees may seem like an additional cost for private landlords but engaging a property manager is well worth the expense – and can even save private owners money in the long run. Property managers will save you time and stress by accurately assessing market rent, selecting quality tenants, maintaining your investment property, ensuring you are meeting your obligations of and abiding with the Residential Tenancies Act.
