Real iQ July 2020 Newsletter: All power to the tenant

Never before in the short history of our property-owning democratic country has the tenant had so much power. Our current Government has done more for tenants rights than any in living memory. In the last three years of the Labour-led coalition, we have seen a gradual shift in the balance of power, so much so that we may see a new generation of renters that have no desire to own their own homes.

Landlords could be using short term booking sites such as Airbnb in an attempt to contract out of the Residential Tenancies Act, however, by doing so they are exposing themselves to substantial risk and possible rent refunds. We became aware of the situation on a recent consultancy visit to Christchurch. A Business Development Manager highlighted that she noticed properties she had recently appraised for owners relisted on Airbnb. Prior to the lockdown, these properties were used solely for short-term stays but instead of being used for one or two nights, they are being occupied for long term stays.

Michael Abbott is our guest this week on Property Management Wine Time. Michael is the CEO of Palace, New Zealand's largest Property Management Trust Account Software provider. Even though this business has grown rapidly over the last decade, it is still very much a family run business after being founded by Michael's father, Ron Abbott.
We talk about the history of Palace which is now over two decades old. It also hasn't always been plain sailing for the team and Michael talks about the challenges they faced as well as looking into the future. Benchmarking and Artificial Intelligence have a big role to play in the future of Property Management. Who better to ask future?
