Property Management in Sucina.

Hi,  I'm new to the boards, so please be nice

I've recently purchased in Murcia - Sucina, and am looking for a complete management agent (from the UK).   I've been in touch with one company, Bridge Holmes, but their charges are:

15% commission

Cleaning / Laundry £50/week

Property Management £60/month

They look very good on paper and come recommended to me, but even if I were to get full occupancy, the management company will make a lot more than I can, and I might never break even.

I've read the messages on managing/advertising yourself, but unfortunately I don't have any time to get involved (I guess that's what they rely on!)

Best wishes

Hi Jxmac

Just thought that i would try and help you out there is a property management company called OPI based in Pilar de la Horadada not too far from Sucina, im sure that they would cover it.

The prices that you quote seem to be quite steep. I think OPI's prices start from 395€ per annum. I was also wondering why you wanted a uk agent unless you meant a british agent or do you refer to somebody in the uk?

Hope that helps

Hi all, i too know of someone who looks after peoples propertys based 10 mins from sucina.
She looked after mine for 6 mths before i moved out there full time.
Her name is joe and her contact details are 0034 968 589 186.

I'm sure you have somebody for your property management needs by now. However, if you are still considering this then there are plenty around now. We do it ourselves but can also recommend some others we have worked with. You do need to decide on what level of service you want first in order to get best value.

Also just spare a thought for the professionals. Although it may seem a lot of money for you to pay actually there's a lot of work involved. In fact they look underpaid to me for what they do (not what you want to hear I know).

The key thing is to find someone who cares. All businesses systemise. That is how they make money. If you can find someone who has incorporated caring for your needs they will be well worth paying.

I wish I could help you with a recommendation but I dont know of anyone. I am sure they are there though if you look for them.

Good luck.
