Benchmark Property

What Benchmark Property does

Benchmark Property (legal entity Benchmark Property Consultants Ltd) is an Irish property management and consultancy firm headquartered in Dún Laoghaire, County Dublin. The company serves three primary client segments: Owners Management Companies (OMCs) for residential block management, individual landlords for lettings and unit management, and commercial property owners (shopping centres, office buildings, retail parks, industrial parks, mixed-use developments). It holds two Property Services Regulatory Authority (PSRA) licences (Nos. 004794 and 002054) and operates as a GDPR-compliant data processor for OMCs and landlords.

The firm's service delivery is supported by proprietary database systems — Blockman/MyBlockman for OMC and apartment owner management, and Letman/MyLetman for lettings and tenant management — both hosted on Amazon Web Services infrastructure located in Ireland with encrypted data storage and transfer. These portals give clients online access to financial, compliance, and tenancy information, and a PayPal-enabled payment flow is integrated for billing. A planned Sales service (currently listed as "coming soon") would extend the offering into property sales brokerage.

The revenue model combines recurring subscription management fees (residential block and commercial management), professional-services fees for lettings (Let Only and Let and Manage), and future transaction fees from sales. Distribution is direct, relationship-led, and Dublin-centric, supported by website content marketing and organic LinkedIn/Instagram presence. The company is privately held, founder-led, and was formed in its current scale through the March 2021 merger with Core Estate Management.
