How to Secure Property Managements from Online Enquiries

If securing additional managements is a key objective for your department this year, make sure Rent.com.au is part of your ongoing online strategy.

As Australia’s leading rental property website, Rent. com.au offers a number of tools and services to assist property managers in building their managements.

Rent.com.au continues to grow the business through increased listings content and improved user experiences for renters, agents and landlords, and will introduce new products to create the complete rental marketplace.

For property managers, the number of landlords online and engaging with the site is key in building new managements as rents traffic continues to increase.

Rent.com.au’s ability to attract landlords online will be significant for property managers Australia-wide. With the privately managed market representing around 46 per cent of the total market, landlords’ increased presence onsite creates more opportunities for property managers to access.

The premium Feature Plans allow agents to capture the attention of landlords researching on Rent.com. au through Feature Listing upgrades and products such as the Exclusive Top Listing.

Moreover, landlords have a direct link to secure professional tenancy management by agents through Rent.com.au with ‘Find an Agent’. It’s as simple as entering a suburb to search over 6,500 property management agencies across Australia.

Agencies can boost their profile on the Find an Agent page as an additional feature of rent.com.au premium agent Feature Plans, including a link through to their customised agency profile.

Property managers can also pick up new managements through RentQuotes. If landlords are looking to appoint a property manager to manage their rental property, RentQuotes allows them to get management proposals from local agents through one simple form.

Professionals Rockingham business development manager Martina Berry said her agency manages around 400 properties, but is always striving to find new managements:

“Within our first week of signing up with Rent.com. au, we had one lead through RentQuotes. I was fortunate enough to meet with the owner and list the property for management. That one lead paid for my subscription for the year,” she said.
