Why Invest in Property?

Property investment is one of most the most stable forms of growing wealth. Property will always in change in climatic markets whether it rises in value or falls in value, however your investment will continue to grow if nurtured.

The smart way of investing relies on two factors:

1. Buy when the market is low
2. Sell when the market is high

At LTF Property we can assist you with options and discussing your long-term goals for purchasing and managing your investment. We offer a personalised service and will guide you from the beginning to the end of the purchase.

We offer owners (Landlords) management services which cover a wide range of services, our processing of tenancy applications is stringent with selecting the right tenant. We pride ourselves on quality service but also our knowledge of the real estate industry. Our team comes with over 39 years of combined real estate experience.

Property management is an industry that undergoes legislative changes constantly, so it is important that you can be assured your investments are being managed by people who are informed and follow the right procedures to get the maximum return for you.

Our Property Management team that is fully trained in all aspects of property management and who understand the guidelines of industry standards that are continually changing.

Selecting The Right Property Management Team

Selecting the right property manager is one of the most fundamental decisions you’ll make and can make a difference not only to your overall returns, but also the enjoyment of your investment.

The team you choose needs to be well trained in all aspects of management including empathy as circumstances change with people. The team needs to be qualified with legislative changes and the consequences those changes bring in the industry.

This changing scene has brought about the need to appropriately manage new legislation and the consequences to ensure fairness for both owners and tenants alike. This includes, in some regions, the Strata Titles Act, Residential Tenancies Act and deregulation of fees charged.

Property managers work within a licensed Real Estate Agency. It is therefore the agency owner who is ultimately responsible for the property, so it is essential you choose a reputable name you trust when selecting the business for management of your property.

It’s a big decision so it’s important that you feel comfortable with the people you are dealing with as this relationship will be built on trust. Being a family business at LTF Property, it will not be a revolving door of Property Managers. As a landlord you need to know your property is in good hands.

Advertising Your Property

We pride ourselves on presentation which means your property will stand out from the rest. Your property may be advertised in all or some of the following:

• Rental search websites
• “For Rent” signboards
• Office window displays
• Facebook, Instagram & LinkedIn and all other social media platforms
• Newsletters distributed to the agents mailing list
• To our database of tenants that are looking to rent

The property needs to be showcased in order to stand out from the rest. Professional photography is a key component as you want to show off your investment’s best attributes. We offer a wide range of options with digital furniture and walk through virtual tours and floorplans.

Routine Inspections

Routine inspections are extremely important when managing a property. Keeping track of the condition of the premises and how the tenant is maintaining it is a key factor.

We invite Landlords to attend inspection so we can discuss the needs of the property first hand. This gives the client an opportunity to discuss the many options in relations to upgrades or repairs. At LTF Property we see this as an advantage to building a better relationship with the Landlord & Tenant.

Outgoing Inspections

Outgoing inspections are dually important as this will determine the condition of the property upon the tenant’s exit once they have decided to leave. We invite Landlord once again to attend should they wish.

We also invite the Tenant to attend so the issues can be discussed immediately rather than later. This promotes understanding of the issues arising from damages and costs involved should there be any. Good housekeeping is important when managing property.
