LA MANZANILLA HOMES - HOME AND RENTAL MANAGEMENT
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
Perhaps the biggest concern of absentee home owners is worrying about the status of their beautiful winter homes in La Manzanilla during the six or so months they’re not in residence. If you own a home, you know that stuff goes wrong and it’s most likely to happen when you’re not there. La Manzanilla Homes puts your mind at ease.
The wide range of services La Manzanilla Homes provides for satisfied property owners includes: checking the condition of your home inside and out at least once a week (more frequently as needed during storm season), paying bills in your absence, supervising your housekeeper and gardener, and much more.
Most importantly, you can expect complete and detailed accountability monthly and personal communication when required. Our standard Property Management services are listed in the chart below. In addition, we’ll be happy to tailor a property management program specifically to your needs.
The basic home-management includes:
Payment of regular bills like electricity, phone,
housekeeper, gardener, property taxes (in La Huerta) and insurance (in Manzanillo) from your funds.
Supervision of housekeepers and gardeners.
Weekly inspection of your property.
Additional home inspection and report after heavy storms, earthquakes etc.
Detailled accounting of all expenses incurred.
Reports by e-mail once a month on your home and accounting.
FEE: Your cost for this complete peace of mind is just $1150 pesos MN per month (includes value added tax).
The following Property Management options also are available to you from La Manzanilla Homes. Please note that some of these additional services, marked with an asterisk (*), include labor and management costs.
