On 19 April 2022, REINZ filed submissions largely in support of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development’s proposed regulatory framework for regulating residential property managers. As a strong, vocal proponent for the regulation of residential property managers, we were encouraged by the Honourable Minister of Housing’s, Poto Williams, positive actions and predominantly in support of the objective of the proposed regulatory framework. However, we expressed our concern of the impact of the unavoidable cost raising model proposed, the suitability of the regime for the property management industry when it heavily borrowed principles from the real estate agents sector, the 4-and-a-half-year timeframe for the regulation to come into force, as well, as offered our recommendations for appropriate entry level requirements for experienced property managers, proposed code of conduct and overall licensing regime.
