FAQ

It’s easy to find rental properties online. Why do I need a rental advocate?

Finding a rental online is only the first step. You also need to inspect and secure it.
This may sound straightforward. But inspecting a property isn’t easy when you live regional, interstate or overseas.
Inspection isn’t optional. In Australia, you can only apply for a rental property if you have inspected it.
We can do the inspection on your behalf. We also make sure your application contains all the information the agent needs to simply forward it to the owner, giving you the best chance to secure your new rental home.

I understand that I have to inspect the property. It's a hassle, but then I've secured my rental, right?

If you're lucky, you only inspect one property, apply for it and secure it. But that hardly ever happens.
You're looking for a home in a competitive market. There may be dozens of other people who want the same apartment or house. People who have a local rental history. People who can attend inspections at short notice.
It's much harder to do this when you live interstate or overseas. Consider these issues:

  • Cost:You need to travel to get to inspections. That can become expensive, especially if you need flights and accommodation.
  • Time: Attending a 15 minute open house could mean a full day’s travel.
  • Late notice: Often, an inspection is only scheduled a few days in advance. You need to be available at short notice, arrange travel quickly and pay high airline fares.
  • One chance to inspect: Agents expect you to be at the scheduled open house. They won’t arrange another inspection just because you can’t make it.
  • Meeting your relocation deadline: You may only have a few weeks before you start your new job or uni. You need to secure your new rental home before that deadline. That adds a lot of stress when you need to focus on getting ready for your relocation.
  • Poorly advertised properties: A house or apartment may seem perfect online but look very different in reality. You only discover that at the inspection, wasting time and money on a property that isn't right for you.
  • Expenses multiply: You may have to inspect more than one property. You probably can't view all the properties you like on the same day. That means you’ll have to travel again and again to attend the inspections for each home.
  • Imagine having to inspect 2, 5, 8 properties.
  • magine wasting time and money on inspecting homes that turn out to be unsuitable when you see them.
  • Imagine repeating this over and over and not being able to secure even the rental homes you like.

We can make this whole process stress-free, saving you time and money.
