Questions landlords usually ask
Clear answers to the practical questions that come up after comparing Local to a standard agency.
What do you mean by “managed like an asset”?
It means we think beyond the next inspection or rent payment. We look at condition trends, compliance, tenant sustainability, and maintenance decisions through a long-term lens — so the property holds up well and performs well over time.
What is the “best-use assessment” (standard rental vs room-by-room)?
We assess how the property could be used most effectively based on layout, demand, risk, and management overhead. For some homes, a standard lease is the strongest long-term option. For others, room-by-room can improve cashflow — but it needs the right controls, screening, and systems.
We’ll outline the pros and cons clearly so you can make an informed decision (not a hopeful one).
What is “Insider Access” and what do I actually see?
Insider Access is visibility into your property’s activity — without needing to chase updates. Depending on the stage (leasing, tenancy, maintenance, vacate), you’ll see key documents, status updates, and what’s in progress vs awaiting approval.
What are 360° inspections — and why do they matter?
360° inspection documentation provides a fuller view of each space, which helps identify condition issues earlier and creates strong evidence when decisions matter (maintenance, tenancy discussions, or vacate/bond outcomes).
How do you handle maintenance without over-spending?
We triage issues and prioritise based on risk and impact, then present clear options. Preventative maintenance is recommended only where it meaningfully reduces long-term cost or protects condition — not as a “nice-to-have” spend.
Do you still keep tenants happy while protecting the property?
Yes — tenant comfort matters because stable tenancies reduce turnover and protect condition. We use clear expectations, consistent communication, and early identification of issues (before they become disputes), while still maintaining firm standards.
How do you choose the right tenant?
We screen for stability, suitability, and affordability — and we document the reasoning clearly. The goal is a tenancy that lasts and performs, not simply the fastest approval.
How quickly do owners get paid?
We process owner payments promptly — often same day — subject to banking cut-off times and cleared funds. If timing matters for your cashflow, we’ll confirm what you can expect upfront.
Is it hard to switch from another agency?
Switching is usually straightforward. We guide the handover, review the existing file, and confirm lease, rent, compliance, and billing arrangements so nothing is missed in the transition.
How do fees work — and what’s included?
We keep fees transparent and scope clear. What’s included (and what’s optional) is explained upfront, so you can make decisions with confidence and avoid “surprise” charges.
Still have questions? If you’d like, we can start with a simple property assessment and outline the best next step.
