What Should an Overseas Owner Receive in a Monthly Report?

A useful report includes dated photographs, meter readings, humidity, air-conditioning, pool and garden notes, repairs, contractor invoices, upcoming services, guest or tenant issues and an account reconciliation. Problems should be prioritised with recommended action and cost. Repeated identical photographs or “all okay” messages are not meaningful inspection evidence.

Choose a manager through references, written scope and transparent fees. Keep owner accounts, passwords and records under the owner’s control, and arrange an independent inspection from time to time. Remote convenience should not remove financial oversight.

Confirm current property-specific details through documents, inspection and appropriate independent professionals before committing money.
