Renting Guide

Getting the rent right is key to minimising vacancy. Our experienced property managers know the local market inside-out and will provide a detailed appraisal based on recent comparable rentals, current demand, and property condition. This ensures you set a competitive and realistic price from the start.

The right manager makes all the difference. When selecting a property manager, look for local knowledge, industry experience, and a dedicated focus on property management. At Home & Key RE, our team specialises in leasing and managing investment properties—we know how to protect your asset and maximise your return.

First impressions matter. We’ll work with you to ensure your property is presented at its best. Whether it’s a fresh coat of paint, decluttering, or some light yard work, small improvements can make a big difference. If you’re not local or can’t access the property, we’ll handle everything and provide recommendations based on market expectations.

We use premium listings, online booking systems, and digital alerts to attract high-quality tenants fast.
Your property is marketed across top websites and our tenant database.
This ensures maximum exposure and enquiry in minimal time.

Our leasing team manages all inspections personally—we never hand out keys. Using our streamlined booking system and weekly open-home schedule, we ensure every interested tenant views your property in a secure, professional, and fully guided setting.

Every tenant application is carefully reviewed with full ID, income verification, rental history, and reference checks. We also conduct tenancy database searches when needed. After our thorough assessment, we’ll provide you with a clear recommendation based on the tenant’s suitability.

Once you’ve approved a tenant, we take care of the lease signing, bond collection, and first rent payment. The handover process is smooth, legally compliant, and designed to give both you and the tenant confidence from day one.

Before move-in, we prepare a comprehensive entry condition report with high-resolution photos. Follow-up inspections are conducted after 3 months, then every 6 months, with full digital reports provided to keep you informed about your property’s condition.
