Binks & Associates Pty Ltd

Worst ever property management company to deal with. Lights in our building foyer and stairway have been out for weeks now! Lets hope there's no fire or crisis in the middle of the night because we have no exit / emergency lighting at all! And no response to email or calls. On top of that our rubbish hasn't been collected for three weeks! We have rats. It's DISGUSTING! Pretty sure Ivy doesn't live like this!

I live in St Kilda east and I've worked with Ivy for a couple of years now and she's always been very helpful, responsive and professional. It was my first experience living in an owners corporation and she explained how everything works patiently and professionally. I would definitely recommend Binks and Associates to do things right.

If you want to throw your money away and destroy your property through neglect this is the company for you.
Have a look at all their positive reviews. Most were done within a 2 week period last year.
Everything about this company is wrong.

Ivy is our Body Corporate manager and I have been dealing with her for a number of years. She is always very helpful, efficient and is more than happy to go beyond what would be expected. I would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Julian was very helpful with some really complex issues. Thanks so much. And the reception staff are really friendly. I was happily surprised, actually.

Winners.very pleasant and helpful. I've heard some storied about body corps some good some bad. I only have nice things to say about this body corp.

Thank you for helping me so quickly with my swipe card (I would have been locked out of apartment overnight without this help). Legends!

Recently took over as body corp manager for the property I am a tenant in. The difference is quite apparent - I actually received a return call and a quick response to my emails. Thanks to Ivy!

Very helpful - I lost my remote control for the car park and was able to receive a replacement same day. Great service, thank you and congratulations.

Was referred by my accountant to this company (I do some small developments). The process has been very efficient and we received some sound suggestions that helped offset some potential complications that would have eventuated in some problems for the owners and in turn us. Happy with the referral.

Just finished our AGM for a building in excess of 150 units in under an hour. So refreshing to know that the property is receiving prompt attention, excellent service and is well looked after. A very positive change after an "interesting experience".

We are very new to living in apartment buildings and a little overwhelmed by everything we needed to do to get connected within the building. When we contacted Binks we were helped by the most patient staff member in a very nice way. I didn't catch her name but thanks anyway.

Had a wonderful experience today with the lady on reception. Couldn't do enough to help me. After having such a positive experience I am surprised to see the other reviews on this page. Thank you so much.

Having seen different OC management firms' financial statements, I believe Binks' ones are easy to understand and comprehensive. For example, they actually provide details on invoices that have been paid during a financial year. Their accounting teamand system must be pretty good I reckon.

I have been a Owners Corporation committee member for a block of flats in South Yarra (Hawksburn) managed by Bink (and other before) since 1987. I am also the secretary of our committee for about 20 years and I have found Binks efficient and helpful. Property manager do change often but our current manage Julian at Binks is doing a good job as did the ones before.

I think some of the 1 star reviews here by others are ridiculous.

Our committee is very active and gets thing done as needed or as planned ahead and Binks make sure the committees and owners wishes are carried out.

Managing property is a team effort through the committee, owners, residents, property managers and even the handyman who putting the bins out weekly, tidies the place and reporting any failure that residents may not report. Our residents are mostly renters and when the committee issues new driveway gate remotes earlier this year at the property we found the residents very nice young people from many background.

If you want to throw your money away and destroy your property through neglect this is the company for you.

Binks & Associates displayed to me a deficiency in competence. They are unable to adress routine matters or resolve them. When tasked with organising matters such as basic maintenance they really struggle to maintain any control.

I have also noticed that they often seek conflict with the real estate agents, owners and tenants as a preferred mode of interaction.

I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for these services.

Binks now manage 2 properties in my extended family. The managers I have dealt with have been very helpful and experienced.
