What are the advantages of delegating the rental management of your property?
Rental property management, also known as rental intermediation, is when you entrust the administration of your property to a management agent. Owners and landlords typically make use of this practice when they rent out their apartments in Paris. As such it comes with many benefits.
Apart from saving time and energy, property owners/landlords also benefit from the agent's real estate expertise and legal knowledge. This then allows the property to be kept up to standard in light of legislative changes (in real estate) and to avoid financial risks.

This will serve as a legal contract authorizing a real estate professional to manage the property. And the document should precisely detail the tasks that come with rental property management, including:
