Since opening the doors in 2009, we have grown from strength to strength in both the sales and rental markets. Our reputation for honesty and integrity, coupled with great results and quality service has meant we have been the number one choice in Melbourne's CBD & the inner city.
Providing market leading systems, support, tools, technology and training ensures our passionate staff are experienced, highly skilled & efficient, allowing the best possible client experience and the most profitable outcome.
We know that every neighbourhood is unique. You will want to partner with a property management agency who knows and understands your local market to ensure that your investment property is positioned properly against its competitors to ultimately get you the best result

Our team know the difference between a good tenant and a great tenant. Our
team carefully selects tenants by assessing rental applications and screening
rental history to find the best fit for your property, giving you the final decision.
Our team understand the importance of regular rental payments, made on
time. We work with your tenants to ensure rent is paid in a timely manner.
And we aren't afraid to follow through with the appropriate legal response if
required.
We keep up to date with changing rental legislation, so you don't have to. If
you're renting to tenants, there are strict legislative requirements for
homeowners and property managers alike. We take care of the formal
paperwork and legalities so you can enjoy the returns without the worry. We
can also advise on insurance options for peace-of-mind protection for your
rental property.
We provide prompt responses to tenant enquiries and manage maintenance
and repairs with ease. Our local network of tradespeople means cost-effective
repairs, timely maintenance, and protection of your investment.
A degree of professional separation from your tenants provides peace of
mind. Occasionally, something goes wrong – and we're there to work through
these challenges on your behalf, without it getting personal. You can sleep
easy knowing we'll apply our usual Harcourts professionalism and knowledge
of the legalities involved.
We apply our expert market knowledge to ensure you receive the best
possible return on your investment. Our large pool of rental applicants means
we achieve competitive rental returns for your property, maximising your
income.
All our systems and processes are based around the theory prevention is better than a cure. Some examples included below.
Due diligence and care is taken to ensure that all applications are processed thoroughly including minimum requirements and multiple reference checks.
Our experienced team knows how to check for a great quality tenant & are trained to identify any potential redflags.
Our comprehensive report includes a detailed itemisation of each room, specifying condition and an itemised list of fittings/fixtures with any additional remarks or notable items requiring attention.
The detailed written report is complemented by several hundred photos & video ensuring there is no grey area.
People believe VCAT favours tenants, they will only do so if there is room for doubt. Our condition report eliminates any doubt.
Unlike some of our rival agencies our accounts are processed in-house, not off-shore or outsourced.
This ensures that any wrong billing or follow-up can be immediately rectified before it affects your income.
In this video Jim Georgiou & Alana Kuo summarise our latest leased results.
