McGrath Pre list Kit PM

A short note from our founder.

I want to thank you for inviting us to meet with you to discuss your property.

As the founder and Executive Director of McGrath I understand the importance of this asset for your future financial security and I take personal pride in the service and support our dedicated property managers will provide you with.

This pack will give you some background on who we are and how we work to achieve the best outcome for you.

I believe the difference between a good property manager and a great one comes down to what happens after your property has been leased. I can assure you that you will be in the best of hands with our team.

Whether you are a first-time property investor or you have an established portfolio, they will work tirelessly to ensure you get the best possible returns, now and in the long-term.

Best wishes

John McGrath johnmcgrath@mcgrath.com.au

Working in partnership.

When you trust your property to McGrath, you’ll be looked after as an investor – not just a landlord. And that begins with our very first meeting, where we’ll spend time understanding your goals, the unique characteristics of your property, and how you want to build value in it for the long-term.

By really listening and asking the right questions, our property managers can provide the ongoing support and expert advice you need for long-term financial benefits and peace of mind.

We’ll also provide you with a comprehensive review of recent leasing activity in your area, and discuss ways to best present your property and also increase its value.

We believe in a partnership that lets you get on with what matters most in your life, while we focus on protecting your future security.

How we help you secure your future.

Investing in property should be exciting, stress free and profitable when done well. That’s why we’ve spent many years developing a system for leasing and management that replaces uncertainty with certainty, and makes the most of your property’s full potential.

At McGrath, we take a different approach to property management. We won’t just promise you the best tenants and rental returns.

Leasing a good property is relatively simple – what sets us apart is our extraordinary passion and the industry’s best processes.

With personal attention to every detail, we can deliver a premium rental return and at the same time create a relationship that will last a lifetime.

That’s what makes McGrath one of Australia’s most successful residential real estate groups. And that’s what it takes to secure your future.

If you squint, all property managers look the same.

What makes a great property manager?

We know what happens after your property has been successfully leased can make all the difference – and for us, that comes down to caring about every aspect of your property and the relationship we have with your tenants.

When we meet, we’ll explain in detail the process we go through to identify and attract the right tenant, and add value to your property over the long term. With our local knowledge, meticulous systems and outstanding marketing channels, McGrath is the property management company that delivers above all others.

You can expect regular property inspections, rent reviews and market analysis. We’ll make sure your property is well maintained, using only the most professional licensed tradespeople and suppliers. And we’ll ensure you receive reliable, on time rental payments.

And that’s just the beginning. Personal and direct contact from your dedicated property manager includes monthly and annual financial reports, and proactive ideas on how to lift your property’s longterm value.

Put your choice of property manager under the microscope, because it’s an important decision. The difference in your return could be very high. And the difference in your stress levels? Priceless.

Our five philosophies on leasing and property management.

At McGrath, we have five key philosophies that underpin our approach to successful property management – and will set your property apart from others in the local area. These are: 1. Our role is not just to lease your property, it is to deliver you a premium rental return and give you nothing less than six-star service.

2. We focus all our resources on achieving a result within the most important first days on the market, starting with our comprehensive list of prospective tenants to assess who will be a perfect fit.

3. There are three key elements to achieving the best rental return: generating more tenant enquiries, engaging prospective tenants at an emotional level and securing the best quality tenants for your property.

4. The details really matter. We make sure your property is at its best before marketing begins – we’ll sweat the small stuff on your behalf.

5. For us, it’s personal. We’ll show every potential tenant through your property, and take great care with all reference and identity checks. Only the most suitable tenants will be put forward for your approval.

The McGrath Property Management System.

There’s a science to securing the right tenant and the best possible rental return – and over the decades we’ve perfected a system that makes it all happen for you seamlessly.

4. The day you list with us, we’ll email our database of qualified potential tenants. Your property will be listed on major real estate websites (including mcgrath.com.au).

1. We start by understanding your investment goals, what you require from the property now and over the long-term, and any special characteristics of your property that people will connect with.

5. We’ll show prospective tenants through your property personally.

They can then apply online, and we’ll carry out a detailed assessment of their references and identity checks before selecting the most suitable tenants.

2. Then we can determine a potential rental range, and look into any aspects of the property that may cause concern to prospective tenants. We’ll take care of those right at the beginning.

6. Before the tenant moves in, we’ll document the condition of your property in a detailed report with photos. That gives you peace of mind, should anything happen at any time during the tenancy.

3. Now it’s time to make your property look its absolute best, with professional photography and the right balance of print and online advertising.

7. Then we’ll set up regular inspections and rental review periods, and ensure you receive ongoing support and advice with all aspects of your investment.

A little about us.

John McGrath established McGrath Estate Agents over 25 years ago in a small office in Paddington, Sydney.

His vision was to change the way real estate was conducted – to bring integrity and transparency into the process and develop a system his clients could rely on to deliver the best outcome in a consistent, predictable way.

The success of this philosophy is evident in McGrath’s significant growth – in both property sales and management. John McGrath still takes personal pride in every aspect of the business, including the enduring relationships we have developed with our property owners and the proven value we have added to their portfolios over the years.

The team at McGrath is committed to a number of key values around which every decision is made: integrity, passion, process, excellence and community.

These are embedded in everything we undertake.

We work hard to make you our first priority. And that’s the difference between simply protecting your asset, and securing your financial future.
