Virtual assistants for UK property businesses

We started in property because it is the business our founder runs. A property VA works in your software and to your procedures, on the admin that fills an agent's or operator's day, and we manage them from the UK.

Works in Reapit, Alto, Arthur Online, Guesty, Hostaway, Uplisting, Xero

What a property VA takes on

  • Tenant, landlord and guest messages

    Enquiries and updates answered in your tone, with anything that needs a decision passed to you.

  • Maintenance

    Issues logged, contractors booked and chased, and everyone kept updated until the job is done.

  • Compliance

    Gas, electrical and licence renewals tracked and booked before they fall due.

  • Applicants and vendors

    Follow-ups, viewings and referencing chased, with every next step on record.

  • Short-let operations

    Calendars, cleaners, listings and pricing upkeep for serviced accommodation.

  • Admin and reporting

    Owner statements, spreadsheets and portfolio reports prepared for you to check.

What comes with your VA

  • A VA recruited and vetted for your role, then a paid test task before you hire them
  • Supervised from the UK: check-ins, performance and cover when they are off
  • Their contract and pay handled by us
  • The Mango workspace for tasks, messages, hours and a weekly report
  • Replaced if it is not working, with your procedures kept

You pay for work that has been done

The monthly fee is billed in arrears, after the month has been worked. The only thing paid up front is the one-off onboarding fee that starts recruitment.

Questions

Do they know property?

We recruit for the role you describe and train them on your own procedures in the workspace. Our founder runs a UK property business, and the service was built from managing offshore staff in it.

What hours does the VA work?

UK business hours as standard. Our VAs are in the Philippines, so a UK working day is their afternoon and evening, and every role is advertised in both time zones.

When do I pay?

Monthly, in arrears: you pay for a month after it has been worked. The one-off onboarding fee is the only thing paid before your VA starts.

Is the VA an employee?

No. VAs work as self-employed contractors. On the managed service they are contracted to us and we handle their pay and performance; you direct the work.

Do I have to give them my passwords?

You should not. Give your VA their own login wherever the software allows, or share access through a password manager, so it can be removed in one step.

Will a VA work for your business?

Answer a few quick questions and get a free plan for your business: whether a VA would work for you now, what they would take off your plate, and what it costs next to a UK hire. Your call with us is booked from there.
