24.01.2022 Being a tenant looking for your next home is tough right now, don't make it harder though. When applying for a rental property in a competitive market it can be tempting to make your situation sound better, however, our biggest tip for being successful is: Be honest in your application form!... Don’t lie or hide anything on your application form, cover letter, or during discussions with the property manager, either online or in-person. You must be proactive about anything that may affect your application. Instead, work on the positive aspects of your application and how to best put yourself forward.

23.01.2022 "When you’re renting a property, your lease is the most important thing to understand. It’s the legally-binding agreement between yourself and the landlord that defines how long you’ll be renting the property, how much you will pay each week, and what your responsibilities are." - canstar.com SO, make sure you read your lease, and ask the property manager any questions that you might have prior to signing your lease. Here at Elevate, we take great pride in supporting both sides of a lease agreement. We strongly believe that happy tenants make for good tenants which then in turn makes for a happy landlord.

20.01.2022 Summer is fast approaching and there are some clear home decorating trends happening.

19.01.2022 When was the last time you checked your rental returns? There are 3 keys you need to check when you’re looking at your rental returns: 1 Rent coming in each year You want to make sure that you’re achieving optimised gross rent each year. This means, reviewing the rent at least annually (sometimes even more often).... So when was the last time you had a rent review on your investment property? 2 Regular maintenance expenses Sure, you’re going to have regular expenses on your investment property. Rates Insurance Interest and fees from your bank Minor repairs Pest treatments Smoke alarm maintenance The usual. Make sure you’ve got these expenses mapped out into your cashflow plan so that they don’t take you by surprise. In fact, you’re best to work with your property manager to help map these out into your annual plan so that those bills can be covered by your gross rent. 3 Capital expenses These are the big expenses, like: Hot water system Carpets Painting Kitchen or bathroom renovation The truth is, if you hang onto your investment property for 7-10 years (or more), you’re probably going to have to put your hand into your pocket to cover these expenses. So, work with your property manager to ensure that you’re not surprised by these expenses and even factor them into your cashflow plan. And remember to depreciate these capital expenses in your tax return! Want to discuss this further? Charmiane 0414 752 753 [email protected]

11.01.2022 COMMUNICATION and property management. If we have learnt anything from 2020 and the property market it is that good communication is so very important for businesses, tenants and homeowners.

We focus on communicating in a way that suits the individual. We understand how everyone’s lives are busy so we can tailor our communication to suit you. If you prefer a call - you got it!
