Responsibilities like rent collection and tenant screening are more than a headache for property owners. If handled incorrectly, these tasks can lead to operational and compliance issues for a rental property. Here's how FAA Property can help you.
Complete Rental Management Services on the Sunshine Coast
The property journey involves many steps. Each one must be handled with professionalism to meet a tenant's expectations. Here are the primary services FAA Property provides.
Investment property advertising
The first point of contact with prospective tenants is usually through advertising on established real estate platforms such as domain.com and realestate.com. We assist by coordinating professional photography and preparing clear, compliant listings for residential homes, helping families find suitable properties and keeping the enquiry and chat process organised.
Tenant screening
Finding the right people for your property is an intensive process. There are many factors that go into choosing the right applicant, including:
Lease preparation
Once you've secured a tenant, you have to prepare the lease. FAA Property will handle setting up the tenant in the property. This could include:
- Drafting the tenancy agreement.
- Securing the bond and lodging it with the Residential Tenancies Authority (RTA) within ten days of receiving it.
- Completing an entry condition report and supplying a copy to the tenant at the beginning of their tenancy.
Rent collection and arrears
As a property owner, you may be particularly interested in the rent collection process. Rent collection is a core administrative function of property management, involving invoicing, monitoring, and follow-up in line with tenancy agreements and legislative requirements. We take an honest and transparent approach, and property owners are often grateful for clear processes that support the effective management of rent today, without guaranteeing or maximising financial outcomes.
A lot of arrears management is about prevention. Choosing the right tenants in the first place may help make arrears a non-issue. However, we have a set process for notifying the tenant and settling any issues if problems arise.
Property inspections
Routine inspections every three months help maintain the condition of a property for rent and manage owner expectations. Identifying issues early supports a structured management process, whether the property is a first home or part of a broader portfolio.
Where required, maintenance is coordinated with appropriately qualified tradespeople, subject to availability and owner approval. While owners may aim to achieve long-term success or maximum return, regular inspections help landlords feel safe knowing their property is being managed professionally, without guaranteeing any financial outcome.
