Property factors, also known as property management companies, are specialized service providers that oversee the upkeep and maintenance to common areas to residential properties. They act as intermediaries between homeowners and maintenance service providers, ensuring that the property is well-maintained and that the homeowners' interests are protected.
The Legal Framework
In Scotland, property factors are regulated under the Property Factors (Scotland) Act 2011. This legislation sets out the rights and responsibilities of property factors, providing homeowners with the assurance that their property will be managed in a professional and ethical manner.
The Role of Property Factors
Efficient Maintenance One of the primary roles of property factors is to ensure that the property is well-maintained. This includes routine inspections, repairs, and maintenance tasks, ranging from gardening and communal area cleaning to more complex structural issues.
Financial Management Property factors handle the financial aspects of property management. They collect service charges from homeowners and allocate these funds to various property maintenance and management tasks, maintaining financial transparency and accountability.
Conflict Resolution Property factors act as mediators in the event of disputes among homeowners or between homeowners and maintenance service providers. This ensures a harmonious living environment for all residents.
