We have the experience, systems, procedures and manuals in place to provide streamlined

comprehensive Association Management and Consultancy Services to residential, commercial

and mixed use communities throughout the GCC Region and to date have maintained 100%

client retention. The management of a jointly owned property differs to that of a singular owner

property in the way in which the Owners Association must react to situations, make decisions, issue

instructions and appoint service providers. The role of the Association Manager requires a high

degree of responsibility and experience, it is the Association Manager that must guide the Owners

Association on matters concerning the Jointly Owned Property Law, supervision of the day to day

operations and manage the finances of the Owners Association.

The Professional Association Services Asteco conducts throughout the region include:

• Consultancy and Planning • Financial and General Administration of OA • Meeting and Service Provider Coordination

Although the structure and management of Owners Associations in Dubai is a very recent addition

to the property landscape you can have confidence that with Asteco Property Management you

are not dealing with a new virgin management company. Asteco Property Management has been

providing dedicated property solutions to our clients for more than 30 years and our Association

Management team has been in operation since 2007 with a combined Owners Association

Management experience of more than 30 years in the region and internationally.
