What is the origin of property management in Guangzhou?

Property management began in Britain in the 1960s. At that time, it was the great development of industrialization in Britain. A large number of farmers went to the city and their houses were rented out. In order to safeguard the rights of residents, a set of effective management methods is needed, so professional property management appears.

Since then, property management has become popular all over the world, and has attracted universal attention from all countries. At present, the property management in the United States, Britain, China, Hongkong and other countries or regions is very developed, which is valued by the government and welcomed by the owners and tenants, and is in the process of vigorous development.

There are five main modes of property management in Britain and America:

(1) Property management in Britain and America has become a socialized service industry. Anyone and any company can manage from the industrial and commercial sector and obtain a business license as long as conditions permit. Most of these property management companies or institutions are self-operated and self-financing economic entities.

(2) There are many property management services with a wide range of contents, including the whole process of management and property use before and after property construction.

(3) The management mode is very flexible. The owner or user entrusts the property management company to manage the property, and the management mode of the property management company is very flexible. Minor repairs and daily services can be completed by internal maintenance personnel, and large and medium-sized projects can be contracted to other professional companies. A project or project, such as greening management, can be contracted separately or as a whole. The fee is negotiated by both parties, and the charging method can be based on the length of time or per charge.

(4) Property management service charges are agreed by the entrusting party and the property management company (or institution), and are determined by both parties through free consultation depending on market supply and demand, regional environment and the quantity and quality of houses, and there is generally no uniform standard. There are many sources of management fees for property companies, including rental income, service fees and even government subsidies.

(5) The management company (institution) is capable and efficient, with few fixed personnel. Some projects are hired temporarily as far as possible, and those that can be contracted do not have fixed personnel, saving expenses.

Property management originated in Britain. European and American countries have achieved remarkable results in developing property management over the years, and Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong and Macao in Asia also have perfect property management systems. Japan, in particular, developed earlier, and has developed from building-based property management to people-oriented values, which is quite mature.

What are the characteristics of foreign property management?

Foreign property management has five characteristics:

(1) Independent property management companies that are responsible for their own profits and losses and operate independently have developed rapidly. Government public houses are gradually handed over to independent property management companies, and private buildings are increasingly entrusted to professional property management companies.

(2) Separation of property ownership and management. The relationship between the property management company and the owner is an employment relationship. When the owners choose a property management company through bidding or agreement, they should carefully examine the company's reputation, professional knowledge background, management, finance, legal level, management fees, community activity ability, etc. However, property management companies are facing the pressure of market competition, so they must pay attention to their own image, constantly improve their management level and efficiency, and try their best to satisfy the owners, otherwise they will be in danger of being eliminated or fired.

(3) Property management and charging standards are formed by the market. Generally, the government does not stipulate specific charging standards, and the specific management fees are determined by the owners (the entrusting party) and the management company (the entrusted party) through bargaining according to market supply and demand, regional environment, housing quantity and quality, service content and depth.

(4) The property management modes of all countries (regions) are combined with their own national conditions and conform to their own characteristics. For example, due to the scarcity of land resources, Singapore has formed a government-coordinated property management model. On the other hand, on the basis of dual-track system of government supply and market supply, Hong Kong has formed a management mode combining the management of Housing Authority and the management of property management companies.

(5) The government has played an important role in property management, but the government generally does not directly interfere with the specific standards of property management fees. The government regulates people's behaviors, responsibilities and rights in all aspects of property management with detailed and perfect laws and regulations.
