Risk Management
One of the biggest factors in Property Management is avoiding risk. This not only means risk for the tenant/s health and safety but risk of any miscommunication between the tenants and landlord. Go through the property with a fine tooth comb. If something could be potentially dangerous, fix it.

Repairs
Before a tenant moves in make sure any major repairs are finished. This allows for a much smoother transition in the first few weeks of the tenancy and minimises disruptions to the quiet enjoyment of the property.
