Customer Profile - Michelle and Lea*
Late last year, Michelle contacted us about helping her daughter find her first rental property. Lea was moving from NSW to Melbourne to further her university studies and wanted to have her own space. However, as she had been living on campus, she had no rental history, and the market was rapidly tightening.
Negotiating Rent Increases
We’re seeing more landlords looking to capitalise on the current market conditions by increasing the amount of rent they charge. As a result, more tenants are needing to find extra room in their household budget for larger monthly rent payments. But what do you do if you can’t afford to – or simply don’t want to – pay more rent?
Are Build-to-Rent Developments the Future?
Build-to-rent developments may be a fairly new concept within the Australian market, but they are already receiving plenty of attention. Some believe they could help address rental affordability issues, whereas others see them as a new benchmark in luxury. Here we take a closer look at the build-to-rent model, including the unique benefits and considerations for potential tenants.
Customer Profile - Miranda and Steve*
There are certain things property managers look for when reviewing applications, and many great tenants won’t tick every box. This was definitely the case for Miranda and Steve, and it was further complicating an already difficult rental search. However, we knew that, with a little extra effort, we’d be able to secure them a place they loved.
