Managing Your Investment Property Lease Renewal During the Holidays

Over December and January is a tough time to lease an investment property. With vacancy rates peaking early in the New Year, tenants have more choice and are in a better position to negotiate.

What do property investors need to know before the EOFY?

The end of the financial year is fast approaching. And for property investors, this means getting organised: assessing your investment performance and preparing your receipts for the lodgement of your tax return.

How to secure the right tenant for your investment?

Would you let a stranger into your house? Accepting tenants without adequately screening applicants is akin to allowing a stranger into your house, and handing over the keys. No doubt, a costly decision in any property owner’s book.

Testimonials

We’ve been renting for the last seven years due to my husband’s company transfers. Brigitte is the property manager for our current rental and I can honestly say I have never encountered such a high-level of professionalism and customer service from any other property manager. She turned our application around in 24 hours which meant we could head off on our overseas holiday. She has endured late night calls from us when we’ve locked ourselves out and always addresses repairs in a timely manner. I would recommend Stills Properties to anyone wishing to lease a home.

Brigitte has been a property manager for us over the years, and in all our dealings together, she remains professional and is highly recommendable. That’s why we chose Brigitte to successfully complete the sale of a prestige property for us.

Patrick Supple

Property Owner

My partner and I (along with our Cavoodle) considered applying for a property on the North Shore. In this world of rental-hunting, it was a refreshing experience dealing with Brigitte. Even though we decided against the property, opting for one closer to the city, Brigitte gave her time to answer our queries and was genuine, professional and friendly. Thank you!
