TENANT TUESDAY TIP | Preparing for a Routine Inspection

Have a routine inspection coming up?

Firstly — don't panic! Your home doesn't need to look like a display home.

A routine inspection gives your Property Manager an opportunity to check how the property is going, identify any maintenance or repairs that may be required, and make sure everything is being looked after.

Before your inspection, it's a good idea to:

✔️ Give the property a general clean and tidy
✔️ Make sure floors, bathrooms and kitchen areas are reasonably clean
✔️ Tidy outdoor areas, lawns and gardens where you're responsible for them
✔️ Check for any leaks, dampness, mould or maintenance concerns
✔️ Make a note of anything you'd like your Property Manager to look at
✔️ Ensure we can safely access all areas of the property

🔎 So, what am I actually looking for?

I'm looking at the overall condition of the property, not whether you've left a coffee cup on the bench or the kids have toys out.

I'm checking for things such as:

🏡 General condition and care of the property
🔧 Repairs or maintenance that may be needed
💧 Leaks, water damage or signs of moisture
🌿 Condition of lawns, gardens and outdoor areas
⚠️ Any potential safety or compliance concerns
🐾 Any issues that may need to be discussed or addressed

Routine inspections are also a great opportunity for you to communicate with me.

If something isn't working properly or you've noticed a maintenance issue, please tell me. I'd much rather know about a small problem early than discover it once it has become a bigger one.

A routine inspection isn't about expecting perfection — it's about communication, preventative maintenance and looking after the home together.

TENANT TIP TUESDAY | Make Your Application Stand Out

Found a property you’d love to call home?

Your rental application is your opportunity to make a great first impression.

Take the time to complete every section and provide as much relevant information as possible. An incomplete application can create delays and make it difficult to properly assess your circumstances.

✔️ Complete all sections of the application
✔️ Provide current ID and supporting documents
✔️ Include proof of income and employment details
✔️ Provide complete rental history and references
✔️ Double-check contact details before submitting
✔️ Add a short introduction or cover letter

If there's something in your application that may need explaining — tell us. Providing some context is always better than leaving us guessing.

Remember, we're assessing an application based on the information you provide.

A thorough, honest and well-prepared application can help you stand out and makes the process smoother for everyone.

✨ When it comes to your rental application, more relevant information is always better than not enough.

Property Management… what people think we do vs. what we actually do 😂

Behind every smoothly managed property is a whole lot of phone calls, inspections, maintenance, paperwork, problem-solving, listening and plenty of coffee! ☕️

But hey… just another day in Property Management

TENANT TIP TUESDAY | Before You Apply

Found a rental property you love? Don't wait until after the inspection to start getting your application together.

Being prepared can make the application process quicker, easier and help your application stand out.

Before applying, have the following ready:

📸 Photo ID
Make sure your identification is current and easy to upload.

💰 Proof of Income
Have your recent payslips or other supporting income documents ready.

💼 Employment Information
Ensure your employer's contact details and employment information are current and correct.

🏡 Rental History & References
Have your previous agent or landlord details available and let your references know they may be contacted.

📝 Check Before You Submit
Take a few extra minutes to make sure your application is complete and all information is accurate.

A complete application means fewer delays, quicker reference checks and gives the Property Manager and landlord the information they need to properly assess your application.

✨ A little preparation before you apply can make a big difference when you find the home you love.

LANDLORD TIP | Water Usage & Compliance

Water charges can sometimes cause confusion — so who is actually responsible for paying what?

For NSW rental properties, the water account remains the landlord’s responsibility and should be paid in full by the landlord.

Where the property meets the required water efficiency standards, the tenant may then be charged for their water usage.

🏡 Landlord pays:
• The water bill in full
• Water service and fixed charges
• Sewerage charges and other non-usage charges

💧 Tenant reimburses:
• Their actual water usage, where the property meets the required water efficiency requirements and the applicable tenancy requirements are met.

Why is compliance important?

If you want to pass water usage charges onto your tenant, your property needs to meet the required water efficiency standards. Keeping appropriate compliance records on file helps ensure water usage is being charged correctly.

At Skye & Co Property Management, we help landlords stay on top of the details — from compliance documentation through to correctly invoicing tenant water usage.

Because good property management isn't just about collecting the rent — it's about getting the little things right.

TENANT TIP TUESDAY | Don't Be Afraid to Contact Your Property Manager

A dripping tap, strange smell, damp patch or appliance that's suddenly making an unusual noise might seem too small to mention.

But I'd much rather hear about a potential problem early than find out about it once it's become a major repair.

Reporting maintenance doesn't make you a difficult tenant — it helps us look after the home you're living in and protects the landlord's property at the same time.

Good communication works both ways, and great tenancies are built on it.

🏡 ENTRY NOTICES MADE EASY | NSW

How much notice does a tenant need before a landlord, Property Manager or authorised person can enter their rental home?

Understanding entry notice requirements protects a tenant's right to privacy while also allowing landlords and Property Managers to properly care for the property.

Good property management is about knowing the legislation — and respecting both sides of the tenancy.
