The Importance of Regularly Checking Statements and Tenancy Schedules

By Karyn Stroet

Staying on top of financial statements and tenancy schedules should be a top priority for all commercial property landlords. This crucial task ensures that your investments remain profitable and efficiently managed by identifying potential issues before they escalate. For a commercial property management team with loads of expertise and experience, this practice is non-negotiable.

One of the primary reasons for regularly checking these reports is to ensure that crucial financial actions are promptly taken. Instances like failing to implement rental increases, not on-charging utilities to tenants, or overlooking arrears can all lead to significant revenue losses. By keeping a close eye on statements, these oversights can be caught early, preventing financial strain and ensuring a steady cash flow.

Another aspect that necessitates regular checks is the renewal of lease agreements. Letting a lease lapse without renewal can lead to unnecessary vacancies, causing a negative impact on your property’s profitability. Proactively managing lease expirations allows for a smoother tenant transition and minimises the risk of extended vacancies.

Monitoring general and regular maintenance is vital to limiting costly damages and repairs. Neglecting maintenance can lead to a snowball effect, where minor issues escalate into major problems, resulting in higher expenses and frustrated tenants. Regular property inspections and maintenance checks can prevent such situations and protect the property’s long-term value.
