1. What is a Property Factor?
In Scotland, every Property Manager (sometimes referred to as a Property Factor) must be listed on the Property Factors register, to comply with the Property Factors Scotland Act 2011. In the following video we explain our role as a Property Factor.
2. Working with homeowners
People want a property factor who ensures their property is well maintained and properly looked after; safe in the knowledge that the money they pay towards maintenance is spent wisely.
At FirstPort, we work every day to deliver the highest standards of customer service, always listening to our resident’s opinions and needs. Our dedicated team is backed up by in-house specialist support, including accounting, health and safety and surveying, to keep your home secure and in the best condition, so that you can have peace of mind.
3. How do I change Property Factor?
