🏡 Thinking of increasing the rent on your investment property?
Here are a few things every landlord should consider before making that decision:
📍 Know your market – Just because you can increase the rent doesn’t always mean you should.
📈 Be realistic – Compare similar properties in your area to ensure your asking rent is competitive.
🤝 Value good tenants – A reliable tenant who looks after your property can be worth more than an extra $20–$30 per week.
💰 Consider vacancy costs – Losing a good tenant over a small increase could cost you more in lost rent.
📋 Know the rules – Make sure your increase complies with NSW rental laws, including notice periods and frequency restrictions.
The goal isn’t always to achieve the highest rent. It’s to maximise your long-term return.
