A weekly rent figure is only one part of the property’s operating position. A useful finance review should consider the evidence produced through management and the investor’s wider commitments.

Build the operating picture

Review rent received, vacancy, management costs, maintenance, rates, owners corporation costs, insurance and planned works. The period used should be consistent and unusual items should be explained.

Separate facts from forecasts

Historic results, current commitments and future estimates should be clearly labelled. This allows the finance professional to distinguish established information from working assumptions.

Use the right advisers

Manage supplies the operating records, Fund connects the finance conversation and qualified tax and finance professionals advise within their respective areas.
