Results
Effective use of CRAR and committed chasing of arrears has meant that since 2016 Eddisons has achieved 99% collection 30 days post quarter day.
The rent collection has been maintained despite the portfolio doubling in size.
Savings have been made for the client by the surveyors and credit control team working effectively to obtain the rent payments.
Eddisons have also advised the client of potential tenants liable to default and this has given the client time to consider marketing the units in a timely fashion.
