Customer Profile - Vicky and Leo*
Vicky and Leo’s situation was a little different – they were both on pensions and he was her full-time carer. While we knew they would be great tenants, they just kept getting knocked back, even when there were no other applicants. However, we were committed to finding them somewhere suitable, however long it took.

Here we take a closer look at the key changes introduced and the potential impact these could have on tenants.
Customer Profile - Ivan and Anna*
While we love working with all our clients, there are a some who hold a special place in our hearts.
Getting the Balance Right
It’s hard to believe how much the world has changed. First there was the insanity in the supermarket aisles, then the enormous lines out the front of Centrelink offices, and now the eerily empty public spaces – and obviously there’s the health crisis that underpins it all. Given the whole rental market is feeling the strain, what will it take to keep everyone afloat and help further balance the renter-landlord relationship?
Renting with pets
Pets are as much part of the family to some as their kids are and you want to treat them as such. So when you are renting, you don’t think twice about bringing your dog or cat along with you. Yet, the truth of the matter is, it’s getting harder to rent with pets.
Finding the "Perfect Property" to Rent
We all have our own thoughts on what makes the "perfect property" to call home.
