There are two major reasons as to why you'd want to buy any one of the prime Geelong 1 new apartments. Perhaps you want to buy an apartment to live in it because it's near where you work. Or you could by an apartment as an investment property. If you're buying an investment apartment, then you have to maintain it well so as to maximize its revenue potential.

If you wish to keep your tenants happy, always have a professional in place to oversee all repair and renovation issues in a timely manner. Leaking roofs or faucets or electrical wiring faults are some of the issues that can't wait 24 hrs to be fixed, so ensure that the property management firm you enlist is on call 24/7.

Maintenance after Tenant Turnover
