What the review covers

We read the file. End to end.

A full twelve-month review of your portfolio, hand-prepared by a partner. If your current manager has left income on the table, the review shows it in dollars.

The lease, read in full

CPI mechanism, review windows, options and recovery rules. Every clause that moves your income, in plain English.

Rent and outgoings, benchmarked

Your rent against the market today. Your outgoings line by line against similar assets in your suburb. The gap, in numbers.

Bonds, tenants and an action list

Bonds and bank guarantees ledgered, tenants vetted for arrears and lapses, then a short list of questions to put to your current manager.

The six pages you walk away with.

Yours to keep, whether you switch or you stay where you are.

Line by line against similar assets in your suburb.

Market today against your rent today, plus the path to close it.

Why owners move

Four signs your file is being processed, not managed.

If two or more have happened in the last twelve months, the review will tell you what each one cost.

The phone went to reception. Twice in a fortnight.

You do not know who has your file this quarter.

Outgoings landed in May for last calendar year.

Tenants surprised. Cash flow lumpy. Your accountant annoyed.

A CPI window closed without a letter.

You hear about it three months after the date the lease let you move.

The PDF statement raises more questions than it answers.

You stopped opening it about six months ago.

Owner story, review no. 04

One file, opened.

Four warehouses with the prior manager. Page 01 caught three missed CPI uplifts on one lease. Page 02 found outgoings that had been under-billed across the four assets. The owner moved the portfolio the following month. Industrial owner, four assets in Sydney. Anonymised at owner's request. Full reference available.

Four warehouses in Sydney. The prior manager running the file. The owner asked for a review before deciding whether to move. The review caught missed CPI uplifts, under-billed outgoings and a bond shortfall against one tenant. The owner moved the portfolio. The money sat in his account, not ours.

The cost of switching

The review is free. The switch is too.

The review costs nothing. The switch costs nothing. There is no setup fee and no exit fee, and the next rent cycle lands in your account.

  • No setup fee
  • No exit fee on the switch
  • 5% management fee, recovered on a net lease

Across the reviews we have run, the published average recovered in the first review is $11,400. See the full breakdown on our commercial property management fees page, ask about commercial leasing for a vacancy, or contact our Sydney firm to start the review.

If you decide to move

If you move, the handover is three steps.

No setup fee. No exit fee. The next rent cycle lands in your account.

Sign. Same day.

One page from you. We send the termination notice, worded properly, cc'd to your accountant if you want it on record.

Transfer. Week one.

The file lands. We read it again. Any further findings flagged to you in writing before we onboard.

Collect. Week two.

One email to your tenants. New BSB, new contact, same Friday rent run. The next cycle lands in your account.

Do it yourself first

Check the rent your manager forgot to ask for.

Type in the annual rent and the date of the last review. The CPI calculator returns the missed uplift in dollars. No email gate, no follow-up call.

Frequently asked

The questions owners ask in the first email.

Do I have to tell my current manager?

No. We draft and send the notice for you.

Will rent collection pause during the switch?

It will not. Tenants pay the next cycle into your account.

I signed a 12-month management agreement.

Most NSW agreements terminate on 30 days notice. We read yours first.

What does the review cost?

Nothing. There is no setup fee and no exit fee on the switch either.
