The Landlord Authorization Letter is a crucial document in the Maltese property management landscape, designed to facilitate property administration when the owner cannot personally handle all aspects of property management. This document becomes necessary when landlords need to delegate authority for property-related decisions, maintenance arrangements, or tenant interactions. Under Maltese law, particularly the Civil Code and Private Residential Leases Act, such authorization needs to be clearly documented to ensure legal validity. The letter typically specifies the scope of authority, time period, and specific actions the authorized person can undertake. It's particularly relevant in situations involving overseas property owners, busy investors, or those managing multiple properties who need local representatives to act on their behalf.
