Becoming
a lessor can be somewhat of a daunting experience, however if you
engage the services of a professional agency and a professional
property manager, the worry and challenges are significantly minimised.
One of the main advantages of using a professional to manage your
investment property is peace of mind. We know the market place,
ensuring you receive maximum returns on your investment.
We have an understanding of relevant legislation and paperwork
that is required under the Residential Tenancies Act. The world of
property management can be quite complex with many legislations
affecting the everyday workings of a tenancy and lessor relationship.
Eg: The Privacy Act, Anti-discrimination Act, Trade Practices Act,
Property Agents and Motor Dealers Act and the Residential Tenancies
Act.
Complete Realty Solutions can alleviate you from the pressure
of having to deal with tenancy issues, such as negotiating rents and
leases, signing and completing all documentation required by
legislation, attending to maintenance issues, organising quotes,
completing routine inspection, attending to the payment of maintenance
accounts, disbursing funds to you monthly, providing you with a written
financial statement of your rental funds, completing final inspections
when your tenants vacate, plus a range of other activities. There are
many functions of property management that are required to be done that
a private lessor may not be aware of or have time for
Our property team all own rentals properties so we understand
your concerns. Our job is to increase the value of your property
portfolio.
There are a number of tasks that require regular management to ensure

While many properties appreciate in capital value over the years as
neighbourhoods mature, there is always physical deterioration of the
building and building improvements to consider. For example
termite damage and or joint expansion may require a purchaser to
carry out extensive repairs that may be costly.

When living in and or leaving a property, you are obligied to keep it
in a reasonable state. If no cleaning has been undertaken by
tenants during occupancy, then it is likely that the cleaning bill will
be high when leaving which means that part or all of the tenants bond
will be used to cover the cost.

Cleaning carpets can be done in two ways:

supermarket
chains have carpet steam cleaners for hire. For the best results,
we recommend the use of professional cleaners. Please check

Access to reliable tradespeople, especially licensed Electricians is
important from safety and convienience standpoints. Any
unsafe wiring, powerpoints and switches will need prompt attention as
