About Presence property management

A property management team built around what your investment could earn

Presence is a local agency across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland, Lower Port Stephens and the Central Coast. We look at an investment property twice: how it performs today, and where the upside sits across rent, management, value, renovation, equity and finance.

That is the Property Upside Assessment. Review the nine areas where a property commonly under-performs, then act on the ones that matter most for your result.

  • Owner-side, with in-house leasing, management and development expertise
  • A local team of around 30 people across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter
  • Backed by written performance and communication guarantees

The audit

The 9-Point Property Upside Audit

We review nine areas where your property may be under-performing, and where the upside usually is.

  1. 01

    Property value and comparable sales

  2. 02

    Rent and leasing performance

  3. 03

    Property management and tenant experience

  4. 04

    Renovation and improvement opportunities

  5. 05

    Short-stay or Airbnb opportunity

  6. 06

    Depreciation opportunities

  7. 07

    Equity uplift through improvements

  8. 08

    Finance structure and potential equity release

  9. 09

    Development potential, including secondary dwellings, duplexes or subdivision where relevant

Rental income, valuations, approvals and borrowing capacity vary. Any recommendation is subject to due diligence, professional advice and finance approval.

If you choose to switch

Written commitments, not just promises

Switching is a secondary pathway, not the focus. If the audit shows your current management, leasing performance or communication is limiting the result, here is what we commit to in writing.

Performance

Performance Leasing and Superior Results Guarantee

Our leasing and results commitment for managed properties. Full terms are provided in writing.

Communication

Communication Guarantee

Clear, reliable communication standards you can hold us to, backed in writing.

Ongoing review

Regular Property Upside Assessments

Ongoing reviews that keep identifying ways to improve your property result over time, plus a coordinated handover from your current agent.

Guarantee wording is subject to the final signed management agreement. Individual results depend on the property, market and tenancy conditions.
