Barbara
“ I came to CPPM after a prior agent had dropped the ball and missed some basic maintenance that could have led to more serious building damage. Upon engaging CPPM to manage the property, they had their trades attend immediately and for a fair price, with no issues to date since. Rent has been paid and the place has been tenanted trouble free.”
Luke
“A very friendly and professional team who know the area extensively hence helped us navigate and settle into our New Home comfortably. Highly Recommend”

The Benefits of Hiring a Property Manager

Peace of mind

Outsourcing the management of your property to industry professionals means you no longer need to worry about your responsibilities as a landlord, the organisation and paperwork, or managing the tenant. Our team will manage all these tasks and ensure to keep you up-to-date.

Avoid the Magistrates Court

Nightmare tenants can cost both money and time. The team at CPPM keep abreast of industry legislation and we are able to pursue claims through the magistrates court if required.

Lower chance of tenant turnover

We provide an effective and efficient service meaning there is less chance of you encountering a high tenant turnover. It is easier for us to negotiate any changes to the tenants.

Point of contact for tenants

Rather than you needing to deal with all tenant issues yourself, CPPM can sort them out for you.

Saving your time

Effectively managing a property can be time-consuming, and is an extra task in your already busy week.

We make sure rent is paid on time

By letting us handle the process, the stress of collecting rent from difficult tenants will be alleviated. If tenants fail to pay on time, we will enforce lease terms and take the necessary actions to resolve the issue.

Our direct debit process ensures that we are immediately notified of any dishonoured rental payments, allowing us to contact the tenant asap to minimize rental arrears.

Property Management Fees

A decision should never be made purely on the fee structure. For example, a difference of 1% in management fees (the cost of one cappuccino a week) may influence you to select an agency whose poor management of your property may end up costing you thousands of dollars in damage or loss of rent.

There is no such thing as a standardised service when it comes to property management with many agencies offering differing levels of service. Therefore we strongly recommend that you carefully research and compare services .

Our management fee is 9.9 % of the rent collected each week. The property management fees are detailed below, if there is anything you do not understand, please do not hesitate to give us a call.

Frequently Asked Questions about our Property Management Services

How do you promote my property?

We know that marketing your property is the most important aspect of successfully leasing it. Your property will be promoted in a variety of different ways to ensure maximum possible exposure and get a greater selection of quality tenants for you to choose

On our website, and social media accounts
On the most popular major real estate websites
Via an email or text message which will be sent to any prospective tenants who have registered their interest with us
Signage in front of our prime Sandy Bay location with lots of foot traffic, and at your property
Through our extensive network of corporate clients looking for rental accommodation for their top-level employees

How do you find tenants?

After showing a prospective tenant through your home personally (and noting how they respect your property) they’re required to complete a comprehensive questionnaire that provides us with a full background. The following steps are then taken:

National Tenancy Database check to see if the tenant has previously defaulted on rental payments
Previous and current landlord/agent references are checked and verified
Previous and current employment references and income are checked and verified
A personal information report is obtained, and proof of identity is checked

After this thorough process you will be presented with the applications for selection and approval. You will have final say – it is your property – we simply put forward our recommendations.

Are property management fees tax-deductible?

In the eyes of the ATO, a landlord is like any other type of company owner, you do need to pay taxes on the profits you make.

Luckily, though, the expenses that are associated with the property are tax-deductible, and this includes property management fees.

How do tenants pay their rent?

Our preferred method of rent payment is by direct debit from the tenant’s bank account. This is controlled by our office, collecting the rent from the tenant’s bank account on the day the tenant nominates.

This is at no cost to the tenant and most tenants welcome it as a simple and effective way of paying rent. It also obviously cuts back on any likelihood of rent arrears. Tenants are required to pay rent fortnightly in advance, although some may opt to pay monthly in advance

What is a property condition report?

A property condition report is compiled at the commencement of a tenancy, just before your tenant moves in. This report details the condition of the property and contents, item by item. It also includes multiple detailed photos.
