Who does make the best landlords - women or men?

Its a sweeping generalisation but I suspect its true.

Lady landlords or should we say landladies are better at the detail. Exact dates, exact meter readings, the exact cost of a new curtain rail and the exact cost of cleaning the lounge carpet.

Our own Property Sparrow is testament to this detail. She seems to have a clear handle on every minutiae of her buy-to-let empire.

My approach is slap dash, management on the run, remembering 80% and having to blag or redue or rework something.

A recent survey of 500 property women by the NLA revealed that women are radically re-vamping the sector with increased professionalism, attention to detail and superior customer service as the credit crunch demands a new approach. Over half (58%) admit to upping their game with the current economic climate – 63% are providing a rent freeze for long term tenants, 10% have reduced rent while 27% are introducing added extras including:

* Offering a free life coach, debt counselling or after care service
* Learning new languages to attract non-English speaking tenants
* Flowers and wine for tenants
* Free monthly window cleaner
* Introducing flexible payment schemes
* Flat screen TVs and free broadband
* Accepting pets
* Considering DSS tenants

Guys it looks like we are facing stiff competition. So who does make the best landlords - women or men?
