Protect Your Reputation with the Right Owners Corporation Manager

There’s some truth in the saying, “a developer is only as good as their most recent project”.

And when a project is handed over to an Owners Corporation on completion, a developer’s hard work can easily be undone by a committee unwilling to spend money on maintenance, or an inexperienced manager who doesn’t provide good advice or fails to keep records in order.

Purchasers of an apartment or townhouse have likely been sold a lifestyle of low maintenance and convenience—a dream the developer has worked hard to bring to life, from choosing the location and design of the property through to including state of the art facilities and the finishes within the apartments.

But once the work is done and the apartments have settled, the last thing a developer needs is to have their reputation damaged by disappointed owners because the dream has not lived up to the reality.

This is where appointing a professional, reputable and reliable Owners Corporation Manager (OCM) comes in.

Why it pays to enlist an Owners Corporation Manager early

Enlisting the services of an owners corporation manager early in the process is a priority that’s often overlooked due to the perception that their services are only useful once the development is complete.

A reputable manager can provide valuable insight and guidance as early as the design stage, by drawing on their experience to share how common areas will be used, and how to avoid mistakes that may result in frustration or conflict for owners down the track.

Owners corporation managers also often have their finger on the pulse when it comes to innovation and technology.

“If you are seeking an edge for your project; something that will help it sell and ensure that residents are satisfied with their purchase, an OCM might just be the best person to turn to for advice,” says Gregor Evans, managing director of Owners Corporation management company The Knight.

Having daily interactions with hundreds of owners, building managers and contractors during the past 25 years, The Knight has a wealth of knowledge on the pain points for apartment owners and the features that can transform a project from infrastructure into a community. Read More
