Executive Managing Agent

In the realm of property management, the role of an executive managing agent is critical for sectional title buildings where no owners, residents or other stakeholders are available and willing to serve as Trustees. At Trafalgar, we understand the unique demands and scope of this role and pride ourselves on offering comprehensive services that meet the highest standards. Our executive managing agents are dedicated to providing exceptional management and oversight, ensuring that every aspect of your property is handled with the utmost professionalism, efficiency, governance best practices and legal compliance.

What is an Executive Managing Agent?

An executive managing agent is a senior professional responsible for overseeing the comprehensive management of sectional title schemes. This role involves a wide range of responsibilities, including strategic planning, financial management, maintenance coordination, and stakeholder communication, together with reporting to owners on a variety of topics every 4 months. Unlike traditional property managers, executive managing agents are assigned the decision making and role scope responsibility of Trustees and by the body corporate passing a special resolution to appoint an executive managing agent (‘EMA’).

At Trafalgar, our executive managing agents bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the table, ensuring that every property we manage operates seamlessly and achieves its full potential in alignment with the expectations of all owners.

Key Responsibilities of an Executive Managing Agent

1. Strategic Planning and Management

An executive managing agent plays a crucial role in developing and implementing long-term strategies for property management.

At Trafalgar, our executive managing agents work closely with property owners to understand their vision and goals, crafting tailored strategies that align with their expectations. Our focus is on optimizing property performance, enhancing value and lifestyles, as well as achieving strategic goals.
