French term

syndic v gestion

French to English Bus/Financial Real Estate Property agency
From a PPT presentation thus no sentences (lovely!).

The sole context is that this concerns a Property Management Company with three main divisions:

Administration de biens
Diagnostics
Transactions

The Administration de biens division is split up into Syndic and Gestion (great). All roads seem to lead to Management.

Could any experts helps with Syndic (which I presume is Syndic de Co-Propriété) and Gestion.

It's this excess use of 'management' which is bugging me.

It's what gets managed :-) Look at the software packages designed for companies in this business. One covers "les métiers de gestion locative, de syndics de copropriétés, de transactions". See, those are three different métiers.<g>

association of co-owners v management

Explanation:
The syndic is the association composed of the co-owners (typically owners of apartments in the same block)
The gestion is the management - this could consist of one or more nominated owners who carry out admin functions on the association's behalf, or sometimes a professional management company which is paid a fee
