Most real estate agents spend the majority of their time and effort on their sales business. This means that their property management clients are typically treated to second tier service.
At Whittle Knight Ltd. our property management team is dedicated to property management and looking after your needs. We are managed independently from the sales team, but are still able to call on the sales professionals when you are looking to buy or sell investment properties.
This means we are focused 100% on providing you with outstanding property management services.
If you are comparing Property Management Companies, we highly recommend you interview a staff member from each company – we have published a few questions we believe are particularly relevant to your decision – please read Property Leasing Questions – Comparing Companies.

Portfolio Management – You are assigned one property manager, who looks after every aspect of the management of your property – letting, maintenance, rent arrears and inspections to name a few. This way you have one contact person, who can update you at all times – there is no shuffling you from one person dealing with maintenance, another for letting the property, and yet another for account enquiries.
We understand that you need to be kept aware of all developments affecting your property. We do this several ways.
We provide you with a detailed inspection report, for every inspection we complete. You will have access to our monthly newsletter keeping you abreast of the latest developments that may impact you or your investment. Finally, our property management team are all held accountable for keeping you informed at all times. It is regularly reinforced in our training sessions and documented in the procedures that we operate by.

“Signed a lease for a student flat with WKB recently for the 2022 year. Really efficient and professional with our group. Went the extra mile to let us have another walk through to do measurements prior to move in date as a couple of the girls weren’t there for the viewing. Dealt with Justine.”
Kiara
“I can’t speak highly enough of both Kelly and Fiona, the friendly and professional service has been second to none. I would recommend Whittle Knight to anybody who was thinking of putting their rentals under management.”
Greg
“Compared with other property managers, Whittle Knight was by far the most professional when it came to deciding on a flat for next year. Our property manager, Louisa Bushnell, replies fast, respects us as a group of students and is very professional.”
Larah
“Met Louiza Sayers at a house viewing and she is super awesome! Kind, professional and has a graceful personality. She is very friendly and responsive to emails- provides all info and happy to answer any questions. During my time in NZ, she is the best I have met. Louiza is great asset to her team.”
Grace
“I recently changed to Whittle Knight after leaving my long-term Property Managers who’d become complacent with my property. My first interaction with WK was Kelly who was simply a breath of fresh air, Kelly from word go was approachable, helpful and responsive to my needs. Kelly and her team handled everything from the moment I signed the paperwork, arranging the handover of documentation and keys from the old property managers through to reaching out to my tenants and enabling a smooth transition to their care. I’ve never had the transfer between property managers go so smoothly. I would recommend Kelly and her team to anyone who asks and look forward to placing more business with Kelly in the future.”
Peter
"Whittle Knight have managed my property for nine years now, and I have the utmost confidence in Tania Ellis and her team, including my current property manager, Anna Derkach. I have always had prompt communication and resolution of any maintenance issues. The team have always found tenants who are a good match for my property, and they have shown a good understanding of both my own and my tenants’ needs, acting at all times in a manner which is both professional and kind. WKB has my trust and wholehearted recommendation!"
Heather
"I highly appreciate our property manager Anna and Whittle Knight as a whole. Anna is responsive when you have enquiries and actions your concerns right away WKB have protocols that are followed but they are also kind and considerate. Thanks for the great service."
