    House not rented yet - 5 weeks with no tenant!

    I'm happy to finally announce that my property has been rented ;) 8 weeks later - but rented now, none the less. I've learnt a lot from this, that's for sure.

    House not rented yet - 5 weeks with no tenant!

    Gardener is coming out to fix the lawn and gardens this week or next week. Windows, I'd agree. Still no tenant as of yet. One person was apparently interested on Saturday, but no application as of yet, even though they took one. Another inspection on Wednesday afternoon. Fingers crossed :/

    House not rented yet - 5 weeks with no tenant!

    I have considered moving to Melbourne, but I don't believe I would move to this area. When I purchased the land and started building in the area, vacancy rates were a LOT lower. Take note, I did purchase the land here back in 2010. Vacancy rates were a lot lower then and it was cheaper to...

    Nope - I haven't told them a thing. Perhaps they're watching this thread though... :/ Do many property managers watch forums like this?

    House not rented yet - 5 weeks with no tenant!

    While the 10 days is true, I'd still like to give them until then - and you're right about how it's taken me a while to get this fixed up. I've made quite a few mistakes with this rental property since it became vacant, and I accept that. It being my first IP, I've definitely learnt a lot of...

    House not rented yet - 5 weeks with no tenant!

    Well to update everyone, I've emailed them and advised them that if the advertisement is not changed by Monday to suit my standards, then I will change to a different agency and property manager. Her excuse for not having photos was that the weather hadn't been fine. I replied with the fact...

    House not rented yet - 5 weeks with no tenant!

    Hi Andrew - thanks for you reply. Well the Head Property Manager (who I started dealing with because I transferred across from another RE) was very good with keeping in touch. Replied to emails within a day, called me when needed to, kept in touch. Now that the house is on the market again for...

    House not rented yet - 5 weeks with no tenant!

    Hi all, So I recently built a house in the area of Melton, Melbourne (in the Botanica Springs Estate in Brookfield) and then tenanted it out on a 6 month lease to someone who was building their own property in Toolern Vale. They stayed for 8 months while it got built, then moved out on...
