tax returns at the end of each financial year. It is important that precise bookkeeping is
executed from the outset, as trust accounts must show all assets held. Accurate and
orderly sets of books will ensure that no doubt exists about the ownership of the trust’s
assets in the event that a member comes under attack from creditors.6. Conveyancing Attorneys

to a member, and closely monitor the conveyancing process from start to finish.

Letting Rentals Agents - Conducting credit checks, drawing up leases, inspections each time a new tenant
vacates, rent collection etc... The admin involved in rental management does not suit all investors, although some
might consider that it would be a good experience to let their properties themselves. oGatsheni cautions investors to
follow this strategy only after due consideration and having conducted extensive research beforehand to gain a full
understanding of the entire process.
oGatsheni believes that members' time is more valuable, and so advises them to leave these very important
functions in the administration of a property portfolio to a capable letting agent who has the necessary resources,
manpower and expertise at hand.
