How Property Management Works – And Why Property by MJ Makes It Seamless

Investing in property is one of the most rewarding financial decisions you can make — but managing it effectively is a different story. From advertising and tenant vetting to handling maintenance issues and staying compliant with ever-changing regulations, it can quickly become overwhelming.


That’s where Property by MJ comes in.
As a trusted, UK-based property management company, we take care of everything — ensuring your investment remains profitable, compliant, and stress-free.



What Does a Property Management Company Do?

At Property by MJ, we manage the day-to-day operations of your property so you don’t have to. Whether you own a single buy-to-let or a growing portfolio, our tailored service keeps your property in excellent hands.

Here’s what we take care of:

1. Tenant Sourcing & Screening

We find the right tenants — not just any tenants. Our thorough referencing includes credit checks, landlord references, and employment verification to reduce risk and protect your investment

2. Rent Collection & Arrears Management

We ensure your rent is collected on time and handle late payments efficiently, saving you from uncomfortable conversations or financial disruption.

3. Maintenance & Repairs

We manage routine and emergency repairs using trusted local contractors. From minor issues to major works, we act quickly and keep you informed.

4. Marketing & Lettings

We advertise your property across leading UK portals, manage viewings, and handle all tenancy agreements — aiming to minimise void periods.

5. Legal Compliance & Admin

We keep your property fully compliant with UK regulations, from gas safety certificates to HMO licensing, and deposit protection to fire safety laws.



What Types of Properties Do We Manage?

We provide full-service management across a variety of property types, including:

  • Buy-to-let homes
  • Flats & apartments
  • HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation)
  • Serviced accommodation
  • Commercial units

Whether you're a hands-off investor or a busy landlord, we can help streamline your portfolio.

Choosing the Right Property Management Company

Looking for the right management partner? Here’s how to choose:

Do your research: Check reviews, case studies, and testimonials.

Check credentials: Ensure they’re properly accredited and insured.

Ask questions: What’s their tenant vetting process? How do they handle maintenance?

Review the contract: Know exactly what’s included — and what’s not.

Compare value: Don’t just go for the cheapest option — go for the most value.

At Property by MJ, we offer expert service with a personal touch — and always put your needs first.
