Full property management: The complete process
We make it look easy for you, but in reality, the whole property management process can be complicated. Thankfully, we have perfected each step of the process.
Learn about our best practices here.
Setting the rent
Setting the rental price for your property can be tricky. Overpriced rent could discourage the interest of potential tenants while underpricing the rent means you’re not getting the most return out of your investment.
So how do we determine an appropriate rent? Airpropty has access to the latest market data on comparable rental properties. We will analyse this to set the best possible rent that is acceptable in the market.
Marketing your property
Have you ever seen two similar properties, in a similar area with similar features be available at the same time, but one gets snapped up much faster than the other? The answer to that is a good marketing strategy.
Our rental property managers know how to reach the right audience by using the right channels. We advertise not just on real estate websites but also on different platforms like social media. We make sure to highlight the property’s best features and pair them with high-quality photos.
Selecting the right tenant
Interested potential tenants must be screened properly before allowing them to rent the property. To get a quality tenant, your local property manager will perform the following:
- background and identity check
- credit check
- employment verification
- other forms of tenant referencing
The screening process can be long but requires meticulous care. This process is a crucial step in any tenancy. Tenant screening and vetting demands your full attention and leaving it in the hands of a property management specialist to dot the I’s and cross the T’s is a wise move.
Preparing the tenancy agreement
Before your tenants move in, we will prepare a tenancy agreement for both the landlord and the tenant to sign. This covers the tenure, rent, mode of payment, and rental bond for the property.
This document also serves as protection for both the landlord and the tenant as it specifies the obligations and responsibilities of each party in accordance with the Residential Tenancies Act.
Move-in inspection and bond collection
Most rental properties in Auckland require a refundable bond from the tenants before they can move in. We collect the maximum bond allowed which is equivalent to 4 weeks rent.
Our rental property managers also perform a thorough entry inspection prior to the move-in. The condition of the property is documented in a comprehensive report which includes 100’s of detailed photos. Both the landlord and the tenant can use this for future reference.
Rent management
We believe that timely rent collection is the backbone of effective property management. We collect rent weekly, but we make it easy for tenants to pay on time by making different payment methods available. Right now, we believe that online payment channels are the most preferred and convenient option out there.
We take rent arrears seriously at Airpropty. We do not tolerate late payments and waste no time with this matter.
Repairs and maintenance
We carry out routine inspections every three months. Then, we provide a complete report of the condition of your property. Airpropty believes that periodically checking and addressing maintenance allows issues to be identified earlier saving you from a potentially more costly expense arising from deteriorated conditions.
We are also in partnership with registered plumbers, electricians and carpenters who are ready to service urgent needs for repairs.
Ending the tenancy
As the tenancy ends, we make sure we follow our end of tenancy process to a tee. Before we return the bond, we ensure all rent and outgoings are paid up to date, a physical inspection of the property is done and that the property is ready for the next tenant. And then we begin the process all over again while trying to minimise your vacancy.

The journey of you as a landlord
In every success story, there are no shortcuts. Let us walk you through the step-by-step journey of a landlord in Auckland.
Many people dream of having a financially successful rental business. Do you have the same goal? If yes, then get ready to work long and work hard because there are no shortcuts in your landlord journey.
A landlord’s journey: Your guide to success
Airpropty, together with its expert property managers, understands what it takes to effectively manage a rental property. Let us walk you step-by-step through the journey of a landlord in Auckland.
Finding the property
For most of our clients, it all starts with purchasing the right property. An ideal rental property is accessible, in a prime location and has a nice neighbourhood.
Compliance with legal requirements
Before you could become a landlord, the property must be in a good and rentable condition. If not, necessary repairs should be done to bring it up to the required standard. This is one of the legal requirements for rental properties in Auckland.
Aside from that, the property should comply with local health and safety requirements and healthy home standards. These include the installation of smoke alarms and insulation systems among others.
Management setup
Now that your property is ready to hit the rental market, the next decision you have to make is about managing the daily operations and activities. Will you be able to perform the duties of a landlord? Do you need the help of a property management company in Auckland? You decide.
Marketing your property and finding tenants
You need to set the rent at the right price and advertise the property in order to attract quality tenants. Then, all tenant applications must be screened properly. You as the landlord must also provide assistance as tenants move into the property.
Monthly statements
Rental property managers prepare a monthly owner’s statement. It is a detailed record of the property’s income and expenses. All transactions must be tracked and properly documented.
Rent collection
It is your duty as the landlord to manage the rent collection. When tenants do not pay rent on time, the finances of the business suffer. Effective communication with the tenants and allowing online payment methods are great ways to improve timely rent collection.
Maintenance and repairs
It is your obligation to maintain the property, both inside, and to some degree the outside. You must ensure that services like plumbing, electricity and water supply are always in good working conditions.
Routine inspections
Most insurance companies require routine inspections every three months.
End of tenancy
There are two possible scenarios as the fixed-term tenancy ends.
The tenant renews the lease
Any changes to the tenancy agreement, in this case, the length of the tenancy, should be documented in writing and signed by both parties. If any other terms and conditions change from the original agreement, these should also be noted in this renewal or variation document.
The tenant does not renew the lease
In case the contract is not renewed, the tenant must vacate the property. You need to carry out a final inspection on the property after the tenant has moved out all of their belongings. This inspection helps you assess the amount of bond to be refunded to the tenant.
After this, you need to get back to work and start searching for the next tenant.

Switching property managers
Switching property managers can be simple and painless with the help of Airpropty. We are here to make your life easier and ensure a smooth transition.
Ideally, your current property management company has been making your landlord journey as easy as having a walk in the park. If that is not the case and you are not happy with the level of service you are getting, then switching property managers can be the best solution.
Before cutting your ties and mindlessly jumping to another company, you need to take a step back and prepare for your next move.
Explore your options
Identify current problems
Think carefully about the things that you don’t like with your current property manager. Make a list and try to remember specific details. For example, you may use the questions below as a guide to understanding what went wrong.
Does it take too long for them to fill the vacancies? Do tenants keep on complaining about them? Do you not get paid on time?
Are they not able to respond quickly to requests for repairs? Are they not acting on your best interests?
Keep these in mind as you begin searching for a new property manager.
Choose a company that can address these problems
When looking for a new company, make sure to communicate what you want as well as your expectations from them. The new property management company should be able to present effective solutions to the issues you have with your current property manager.
One of the major advantages of choosing Airpropty is that you get excellent property management services at an affordable cost of only $25/week.
How soon can you change companies?
First, check when your current contract expires, or how much notice you have to give before it ceases. If it is ending soon, then you only need to give a notice for non-renewal. The minimum notice period is usually 30-90 days, depending on what is stated in your contract.
For voluntary termination or when you want to end the contract sooner than the agreed date, expect that you may be charged with an early termination fee. You must decide what’s best for you and whether you want to pay the fee now or defer your plan to change companies and just wait for the contract to expire.
Make the switch
Switching property managers is like having to tell your boss that you’re quitting the job because of a better offer. It can be dreadful, awkward and uncomfortable. The good news is that with Airpropty, you have no reason to stress over this process.
We can handle the switch as painless and hassle-free as possible! Remember, we are here to make your life easier. Let us negotiate on your behalf and rest assured that we can give you a smooth transition.
Here is a quick summary of the switching process:
- The landlord reaches an agreement with Airpropty. The agreement is finalised with a written contract. The landlord gives written notice to their current property managers to terminate the management.
- Airpropty starts working. We prepare a formal letter to be given to the current company informing them of the switch. We then wait for the notice period to end, thereby effectively terminating the landlord’s contract with them. Count on us to properly inform all tenants about the change.
- Airpropty completely takes over the management on the agreed date.
- The landlord can relax knowing that the property is now in the trusted hands of Airpropty.

Advantages of hiring a property manager
Property management requires time, commitment and effort. An experienced property manager will own your hassles, giving you the freedom that you deserve.
Whether you own a single rental or you have many investment properties in Auckland, you could benefit from the services of an experienced property manager.
A property manager finds quality tenants
A property management company knows how important it is to get quality tenants. Ideally, you want to get a tenant that has the financial capacity to pay the rent. You also want this kind of tenant to stay long term.
However, the process of finding the right people is not easy. You need to have a thorough screening process, something which a property manager has been trained to do.
A property manager prioritises rent collection
In a perfect world, all your tenants will be paying their rent on time. In reality, however, there is always the possibility of rent arrears due to many reasons.
You can avoid this problem by hiring a property manager. Here at Airpropty, we have an efficient system to monitor rent collection. We are firm with deadlines and we do not tolerate late payments.
A property manager effectively handles the tenants
From answering simple queries to providing emergency assistance to tenants, the tasks of a landlord are endless. Add to it the stress from complaints and the headaches when heavy conflicts arise. It could truly be burdensome for a landlord.
One reason why property managers are more effective in handling tenants is that they filter out a lot of ‘noise’ that tenants can create. A tenant may have 101 questions to raise. A property manager will filter through those questions and establish what urgently needs to be addressed, and what’s non-urgent. A property manager will reiterate to the tenant, and communicate to the landlord, which matters need to be prioritised therefore effectively managing the tenants’ expectations.
The right connections
A property management company has access to the latest market data about rental properties. With this, you can set the rent at the right price. You can also benefit from their advice and suggestions on how to market your property better to stand out from the competition.
In addition, a property management company has partnerships with different service providers. For instance, Airpropty works with registered plumbers, registered electricians and handymen in Auckland. This makes it easy for us to attend to the maintenance requests that arise.
Personal benefits
The main reason why many landlords hire property managers is to get peace of mind. Some of the personal benefits you could enjoy are less stress and more free time.
Less stress. By hiring a property management specialist, the bulk of your responsibilities as a landlord will be lifted. This means that you don’t have to stress over late-night emergency calls, late payments, irresponsible tenants, maintenance and paperwork.
More free time. Since you don’t have to personally oversee the day-to-day operations of the business, you have more time to do the things that you love. You have the freedom to explore other interests or focus on another business.
If you need the services of an experienced property manager, Airpropty is here to assist you.
