    I have a property in a suburb 45 mins north of Perth which I would like to rent out. I do not know or use any property managers in that area. I do use a property manager in the inner city area for my inner city investment property.

    Does anyone have any views on whether I should use a local area property manager, or stick to the current innner city one even though they are far away (they are ok, profess to be able to manage the northern suburb property from inner city office)?

    Thanks heaps.

    HI LA,

    All things being equal I prefer to use someone in the local area. It generally makes tenant finding a little more effective given they have access to window shopping passing traffic who may be looking for a residence locally.

    Having said that you may be in better position to negotiate discounted management fees and costs with two properties under the one management group.
