If you’re a landlord in Auckland, you know how important it is to minimise vacancy and keep your property generating income. Whether it’s your first time renting out a home or you’re an experienced investor, the key to success is knowing how to market and manage your property effectively. At 360 Property Management, we help hundreds of landlords rent their homes faster – and for the best possible return.
Here are our top tips to help you rent your property quickly in Auckland’s competitive rental market.
Price Your Property Right
One of the most common reasons a rental sits empty is pricing. Set the rent too high and you’ll limit your pool of applicants; too low and you risk undervaluing your investment. As specialists in property management Auckland-wide, we carry out detailed rental appraisals based on market trends, location, demand, and comparable properties.
Pro tip: Review your pricing every few weeks if your property isn’t gaining traction. The market can shift quickly.
Not sure how much rent your property could earn? We offer free rental appraisals to help you set the right rent.
Present Your Property Professionally
Tenants make decisions quickly- and often based on first impressions. A clean, well-maintained home with great photos will always perform better online.
- Deep clean the property, inside and out.
- Tidy gardens, remove rubbish, and fix minor repairs.
- Invest in professional photography.
- Consider staging to help renters visualise living in the property.
If you work with a trusted property management company in Auckland like 360 Property Management, we’ll handle the presentation and marketing for you!
Maximise Online Exposure
Most tenants search for rentals online, so your property needs to be visible and appealing on the right platforms. We list properties on all major sites including TradeMe, Realestate.co.nz, and our own high-traffic database.
Did you know? Listings with well-written descriptions and high-quality images receive up to 60% more enquiries.
Offer Flexible Viewing Times
Make it easy for potential tenants to view your property. Offering flexible viewing slots, including evenings and weekends, ensures you don’t miss out on great applicants due to scheduling conflicts.
At 360 Property Management, we have a team of letting and property managers available 7 days a week to meet the demand and respond to enquiry quickly.
Screen Tenant Thoroughly (but Efficiently)
Speed is important—but not at the cost of quality tenants. A robust yet efficient screening process helps avoid issues later.
Our property managers in Auckland carry out:
Background and credit checks
Reference verifications
Employment confirmations
We also ensure all screening is carried out in accordance with New Zealand privacy laws, respecting the rights of applicants and handling personal information responsibly.
