How often can you increase the rent?

Rent cannot be increased at intervals of less than 12 months. Landlords must give tenants at least eight weeks’ written notice of a rent increase. In a fixed-term lease, the increase date must be outside the term dates.

How will you find the perfect tenant/s for my property?

Our leasing consultant will meet all potential tenants when conducting open homes for the property. Our leasing team will then closely assess whether the property will be a right fit for those who have applied for the property. Once the applications have been processed and the references have been called for each, we take all applications to the owner, who will decide which applicant to approve of living at the property.

How many routines can be conducted yearly?

A landlord is allowed to inspect a property twice every 12 months. The landlord can also conduct an inspection within the first month of the tenancy and within the last month.

What maintenance is the tenant responsible for, and what is the landlord responsible for?

If there is a noticeable impact or damage that has occurred during a tenancy, it usually falls under the tenant. General upkeep, such as a globe, also falls under the tenant. If the damage falls under general wear and tears due to ageing, this will fall under an owner to repair. However, maintenance can always be a grey area, so it is best to ask your property manager first.

How much notice must a tenant provide if they are on a periodic tenancy?

A periodic lease is a month to month. In the ACT, tenants are only required to give 21 days’ notice in writing.

What is the process if my tenant requests to keep a pet at the property?

If the tenant requests to keep a pet at the property, they must write to the lessor to ask for consent. If the lessor refuses to consent, they will be required to apply to the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal for approval.

Immaculate family home

Superbly positioned within a quiet, family friendly, loop street, is this impeccably presented, full brick home. Set over two levels, the functional design has an abundance of space for relaxed family living and entertaining whilst offering some segregation for older families.

Boasting an abundance of natural light the home has a bright and welcoming appeal throughout, with the use of large windows and neutral colours. Freshly polished Tasmanian Oak floors add character to the home and flow from the entrance into the sun soaked lounge and dining rooms. Adjoining the living areas is the large, updated kitchen that offers elevated views across the backyard. Downstairs is a separate family / rumpus room which together with two bedrooms and a combined bathroom / laundry provide an ideal teenage retreat. The over-sized main bedroom, second bedroom and bathroom are all located on the first floor.

The neatly landscaped backyard opens out from the family room and for those that love to entertain outdoors there is a paved alfresco area shaded by a pergola. Other features include a double lock up garage with extra room for a workshop or storage, ducted gas heating and plenty of under-house storage. Stroll to local schools, shops, parkland and walking trails and within moments from the golf course, Canberra hospital and Woden’s popular restaurants and cafes’. A home this neat won’t last long, call and arrange an inspection today.
