Flexible viewings. Better outcomes.

Many property managers only offer viewings during standard business hours. We open it up, giving your property more exposure and a better chance of finding the right tenant, faster.

More tenants are able to attend viewings, which increases overall demand for your property.

A wider pool of applicants leads to better-quality tenants and a stronger long-term fit.

Your questions, answered

Clear answers to the questions landlords ask most, with no jargon and no runaround.

For most landlords, yes — especially if you value:

  • Consistent rental income
  • Reduced vacancy
  • Compliance with changing legislation
  • Less day-to-day stress

Good property management isn’t just about collecting rent. It’s about protecting the long-term value of your investment.

Most property management companies charge a percentage of the weekly rent, along with a letting fee when securing a new tenant.

Fees can vary depending on the level of service, but typically include:

  • Ongoing management fee (weekly rent percentage)
  • Letting fee (for advertising and securing tenants)
  • Additional costs for maintenance or inspections if required

The key is understanding what’s included, not just the percentage.

Landlords are responsible for:

  • Meeting Healthy Homes Standards
  • Ensuring the property is safe and compliant
  • Handling tenancy agreements correctly
  • Managing maintenance and repairs

Regulations continue to evolve, so staying on top of compliance is essential.

Routine inspections are usually conducted every 3–4 months, depending on the tenancy.

These help ensure:

  • The property is being looked after
  • Maintenance issues are identified early

The first inspection takes place around six weeks after the tenancy begins. This allows us to identify and address any issues early. After that, inspections are carried out every three months.

The main factors are:

  • Pricing (this is the biggest one)
  • Presentation and condition
  • Location and amenities
  • Time of year

Well-presented, well-priced homes in Auckland are often rented within 1–2 weeks.
