LANDLORD GUIDE
This APOA guide is general community education for landlords. It is not legal, financial, or tax advice. Please check current state rules and seek qualified advice for your own situation.
A reasonable rent should reflect current market conditions and the property’s own features. Landlords can compare similar listings on platforms such as realestate.com.au and Domain.
Useful comparison factors include location, property type, bedroom count, land size, condition, transport, school zone, parking, outdoor space, and recent nearby rental results.
Setting the rent too high can increase vacancy risk, while setting it too low may reduce long-term returns.
