When tenants investigate a potential rental Perth property management, most property managers agree that certain amenities attract future residents more than price or even location.
An efficient air conditioning system in the rental property is critical, whether it’s a wall-mounted or ducted system. An a/c unit that is well-maintained and has a decent cooling capacity makes hot summers in Perth survivable.
Family safety is very important. Home security is crucial in any residence, and renters prefer homes having doors and windows with secure locks, closed-off side entrances and, if possible, alarm systems.
Modern, energy-efficient kitchen appliances such as dishwashers, fan forced oven and gas cook top appeal to those who want to spend more time cooking and less doing the washing-up.
If the rental property is within close proximity to schools, supermarkets, banks, and business centers, this is very important. A neighbourhood’s walkability scale in terms of distance to parks and recreation centres is appealing. If the property is situated close to major roadways and public transportation, this eases the headache of a commute.
When residents have pets or small children, easy-to-care-for flooring is a must. Whether it’s hardwood, tile laminate, or carpet, flooring that cleans with ease is a plus.
Renters appreciate a home that has decent floor plans that accommodate everyday furniture such as sofas, dining sets, bookcases, TV and media shelving units. Not only are decently sized rooms, such as the lounge, desirable, they also help situate the furniture in a pleasing and cosy manner.
Covered patios, well-kept backyards, a garden, and garages are additional amenities that renters seek when looking for a home. Be sure to set them up to be as low maintenance as possible with automatic reticulation and established easy care plants.
Most importantly, good-sized bedrooms are key because most people own queen-sized beds. Whereas a bedroom the size of a cracker box causes a cramped effect, an airy, spacious room eliminates that squeezed-in feeling. As well in the bedroom, built-in wardrobes are desirable not only for easy access to clothing, but for storage for other items too. A sense of space is just as important as a sense of place when choosing a rental property.
