Is it time to change your property factor?

Following our analysis of over 300 Property Factor Tribunal rulings and extensive consumer interviewing, we identified a number of areas where homeowners feel let down by traditional factoring companies.

“My factor inflates insurance costs with unreasonable commissions”

“We are being overcharged for repairs and maintenance”

“I struggle to get a response from my property manager”

“I don’t feel like I have a say in the buildings management”

“The standard of cleaning and landscaping isn’t great”

“Customer service is non-existent – we don’t feel valued”

We have designed our service to alleviate these common complaints and put an emphasis on working in partnership with homeowners with the common aim of optimising the value of their properties.
