Your rental building manager in Graz
We manage your rental building.
Managing a rental building means keeping the entire property in sound financial and structural condition. We handle rent collection and service charge accounts as well as repairs and tenant matters. Our work is guided by your goal: a reliable return.
Most of the buildings we manage have between 10 and 20 units. You have one dedicated contact who knows your property and its tenants. You make the major decisions; we prepare the figures and quotations you need.

For owners
Two reasons owners come to us
You are unhappy with your current property manager
Perhaps accounts take too long or enquiries go unanswered. Changing managers is often simpler than expected. We review your management agreement, plan the transition and collect documents, accounts and open matters from the previous manager. How changing managers works.
You have managed the building yourself until now
Over time, tenant matters, repairs, accounts and new lettings can take up more and more of your time. If you no longer want to handle them yourself, we can take over the day-to-day management. You remain the owner and make the important decisions; we take care of the work.

Good to know
What makes a rental building different
One owner, many tenants
A rental building belongs as a whole to one person or company, while its flats and commercial units are let. Unlike a condominium, there is no owners' assembly. You make the decisions yourself and carry responsibility for the entire building.
Many Graz rental buildings are older properties
Tenants value their high ceilings and good locations. Pipes, roofs and façades need regular attention, though. Familiarity with local tradespeople, authorities and common building issues in Graz saves time and money.
Income and long-term value go together
Vacancies, delayed maintenance and unclear tenancy arrangements reduce returns. Ongoing management helps keep lettings stable and protects the property's value over time.
Why Purkarthofer
What else you get with us
Management and letting from one team
When a flat becomes vacant, our estate agency team handles the new letting. We advertise on willhaben and other established property portals, arrange viewings and hand the flat over to its new tenants. You do not need to coordinate a second provider.
Experience with buildings of every size
The rental buildings we manage range from two to more than 150 units. A small property needs different processes from a large one. We know both from daily practice.
In Graz since 1988
Our office is at Sporgasse 29. Decades of work with older Graz properties have given us practical knowledge of local authorities, typical building issues and dependable tradespeople in the region.
Quick damage reporting
Your tenants can report damage through the form on our website, with photos if they wish. The report comes straight to us, so we can respond promptly.
