Quinovic Merivale is a residential property management office at 48 Papanui Road in Merivale, Christchurch. It is one of the independently owned franchises in the Quinovic network, which the website describes as the largest of its kind in New Zealand. The office has been owned and run by Sharon Layton for 19 years, and it manages homes across Christchurch and Canterbury, from Ravenswood in the north to Darfield in the south. It does not sell property. The website lists after-hours service, a client login for tenancy details, rent payments and inspection reports, annual rent reviews, and inspections one month into a tenancy and then every three months, with photo reports. Owners and tenants are both served.
Customers say the team is responsive, proactive and quick to act when something needs attention. Several reviewers describe the inspections as well organised and professional, and one owner said they had been with the office for more than three years and felt looked after. A tenant said they had been renting through the office for two years and found the staff professional, friendly and responsive. The reviews focus on renting, tenant placement and inspections. Harcourts Holmwood Property Management, 0.7 km away, is the only other property manager within a kilometre, and it has no rating on Open Locally.
