Glasshouse Property Management began in 2012 when founder, Jeremy Baker, took over the management of a portfolio of properties owned by his grandmother. This property portfolio had previously been managed by a large, Hamilton-based property management company, who were unable to provide the results that a property owner and landlord seeks. The properties were found to be in poor condition, attracted low rent, as well as poor quality tenants. Compounding this, there were ongoing issues with vacancy, which resulted in poor cash-flow. With a focus on performing the necessary repairs and maintenance, as well as undertaking some much-needed renovations, Jeremy was able to increase returns, lower vacancy, and greatly increase tenant quality. The theory that great homes attract both great tenants and great investment outcomes, was proven, and Jeremy took that model to the market, growing the business by word-of-mouth. Today, with the support of a fantastic team who share our company vision, Glasshouse manages over 500 properties with a 99% occupancy rate and fantastic tenants.
