Using Your Preferred Tradespeople with Property Management: The Best of Both Worlds

Adapted from the popular Invest Lounge radio segment featuring Amy and Jackson

A common question we hear from property investors is whether they can continue using their preferred tradespeople—those familiar with their property's quirks and history—after signing with a property management company.

The Short Answer: Yes, Absolutely!

At Coral Sea Property, we believe in honoring your existing relationships with trusted tradespeople. When we onboard new property owners, one of the first things we do is ask for your list of preferred trades. These professionals already know your property inside and out, which can lead to more efficient maintenance and repairs.

The Exception: 24-Hour Emergency Maintenance

While we prioritize using your preferred tradespeople for scheduled maintenance, there is one important exception: our 24-hour emergency maintenance system.

This system ensures that no matter when an urgent issue arises—whether it's:

  • The middle of the night
  • During a weekend
  • On public holidays
  • Even Christmas Day

Your tenants can report emergency maintenance requests and receive immediate solutions. In these urgent situations, we rely on our vetted network of trusted emergency tradespeople who can respond quickly.

Why We Have This System

Our 24-hour emergency maintenance system is designed to:

  • Protect your investment property from further damage
  • Ensure tenant safety and satisfaction
  • Address problems before they escalate into major issues
  • Provide peace of mind for both property owners and tenants


The Best of Both Worlds

This approach gives you the best of both worlds: the ability to maintain relationships with your preferred tradespeople for regular maintenance, while still having the security of knowing that emergency situations will be handled promptly and professionally by our trusted network.

​By combining your knowledge of the property with our property management expertise, we create a maintenance system that protects your investment while respecting your preferences.
