We work with quality(I) tenants to build long-term relationships, thereby helping to minimise downtime and tenant turn-around, while offering security to families, students and professionals, so that they are able to turn your house into their home.

Let Us Handle The Day to Day Property Management Operations

We aim to make your experience as an owner as smooth as possible(I) by handling the nitty gritty and staying on top of the smaller details. Our property managers handle this in a number of ways, which can often look like the following:

• Collecting all of the relevant documents and keys, organising bond transfers and handling all associated documents and lease signings. This also includes tenant application screening and legislation compliance. Staying in contact with your tenants and making sure their concerns, queries and suggestions are heard and met with a response. We handle all communication with tenants which includes arranging routine inspections and listening to and offering advice regarding flat disputes. We refer this information to you when necessary and provide ongoing support and professional advice.
• Carrying out thorough property inspections. Our extensive inspections our carried out on a regular basis, we use these to provide you with detailed information on how the tenants are looking after the property and what maintenance has been undertaken or is required. Our inspections include a good selection of photos to provide you with a visual of the state of your property.
• A thorough tenant screening process. We check character and landlord references to ensure your property will be tenanted with respectful and mature groups that will treat the house with respect. Throughout the tenancy we keep a close eye on proceedings and inform you of any issues or potential problems. Should a serious dispute arise, it is dealt with by us at a tenancy tribunal.
• Displaying your property in it’s best light. Our in-house marketing and design team works hard to ensure all photos, blurbs and advertising material display your property’s best qualities. This ensures tenants find, sign and begin paying rent as soon as possible.
• Carrying out market appraisals to ensure your property is always in-line with current rent and market trends.
• An active awareness of your property’s progress. Our portfolio is divided between a number of capable property managers all with a broad local knowledge. If your property is taking longer than expected to rent, we do everything in our power to remedy the situation. Whether a price change or a new marketing plan is required, we will work with you to ensure your property is tenanted.
• Tenant care. We treat our tenants with respect and understanding and do everything in our power to help them feel at home in your property. Both our residential and student properties are often tenanted by the same group for a number of years due to the positive relationships built between tenants, property managers and the landlord.

We Offer Guidance and Commitment

We work with you every step of the way to ensure you understand all of our processes, and will always treat your property as if it's our own. We offer our expertise to protect your investments, while maximising rental returns and ensuring our clients are up-to-date with all the latest changes to legislation in the rental market industry. This is crucial in today's ever-changing market.

We Work Hard To Get Your Property Tenanted

Our marketing team uses a number of tools to ensure your property is tenanted as swiftly as possible and is seen by the right people. We use social media to share prizes, tips and to build rapport with tenants. Facebook is also used to help push properties should the need arise. Potentially our most powerful marketing tool for student properties - each year two versions of our “Get a Room!” student flat magazine is released. This showcases all of our student flats and studios available for rent for the following year. The magazines are spread throughout the city and have proven to be a very popular tool for students to see what accommodation Edinburgh Property Management has to offer. We have an equally strong focus on advertising residential properties – a weekly residential advert in the paper and advertising on New Zealand’s most popular real estate websites ensure property enquiries come in thick and fast.

We Stay On Top Of Current Rental Market Trends

We work with our client’s goals in mind and will advise our owners if we believe any changes are necessary to stay in-line with current market trends. We review all rent rates regularly, and implement increases where need be (or adjust as required), to ensure maximum occupancy rates are achieved for your property.

What Does A Standard Lease Look Like?

Wondering what a standard lease looks like? The majority of student rental landlords around the University area/North Dunedin expect tenants to sign a 12-month fixed-term tenancy agreement. If you sign into this type of lease, it means you are liable for rental payments for the entire 12 months, whether you are living in the flat or not. There are a number of other tenancies which our Property Managers will discuss with you when the time comes to sign your lease. Residential tenancies generally follow the same pattern, with 12-month fixed term tenancies being the norm.

Whether you’ve just moved to Dunedin or you’re a local, each stage of life requires appropriate accommodation. Your living environment is a place of work, play and where you feel most at home.

Looking for a flat that's just a short walk to the University of Otago campus? Edinburgh Realty can help you find the ideal student accommodation for your personal and academic needs. Known for its rich student population, Dunedin, New Zealand offers a variety of different housing options for students and staff. So if you want to live just around the corner from campus, then check out our student accommodation options and resources.

University Students - Find Your New Home For The School Year

One of the most exciting things about university student life is living in a home away from home. Because there are so many students in Dunedin and Otago, there are plenty of fantastic housing options to fulfill any student's needs. From single bedroom accommodation a few miles walk to campus to shared flats that are a stone's throw away, finding your perfect housing accommodation as a student in Dunedin doesn't have to be a chore.

We make finding student flats simple

Finding the perfect place to live as a university student can be quite the headache. Most students want to strike a bargain — with enough distance from campus to be able to enjoy their personal downtime, but close enough where getting to campus and school facilities doesn't take all day. At Edinburgh Realty, we make the process of finding that ideal student flat a breeze. With detailed descriptions of the property plus a map to show its exact location, you'll be able to browse through our listings and find your perfect accommodation in no time.

Plenty of university housing options for all student needs

Whether you've moved to Dunedin for uni and are new to Otago entirely, or you've lived in the region your entire life, finding a flat in this city shouldn't take an arm and a leg. Even if you don't know exactly what type of accommodation you're looking for, you can easily browse through our many university student housing options that include:

Types of student flats

• Entire homes
• Shared flats
• Studio apartments
• One bedroom
• Inner-city apartment complexes

Furnished and unfurnished flats

Newly renovated flats

University of Otago student accommodation for all types of students

While there are many similarities that all students share, much about university student life depends on where you come from and where you are at in your academic career.

Undergraduate students - your first flat

Is this the first flat you'll be calling your very own? If that's the case, then it's important you have a little extra guidance and knowledge under your belt about the student renting process. Our property managers will be with you every step of the way so that you can find exactly the type of accommodation you're looking for as you finish up your undergraduate career in Dunedin. A few things to consider when selecting your flat: Will all your belongings fit into the bedroom? Is it close enough for you to walk or bike to the University of Otago campus? If you don’t have a car, can you bus or walk to your part-time job and essential shops?

International students - home away from home

Is Dunedin, Otago, or even New Zealand completely new to you? Finding student accommodation in New Zealand may be a little different than what it's like in your home country. That's why it's important to have all the information you need about the flat's location and its amenities before you enter into a rental agreement. Our property managers will make sure you are well taken care of and will help you find your perfect home away from home. Looking for support? The University offers assistance and resources for Pacific, Maori and International students. Whether you are struggling with a language barrier or dealing with any kind of culture shock, there is an abundance of support.

Postgraduate students - accommodation for a different student experience

More often than not, graduate or returning students who have already experienced the university student lifestyle are looking for safe, comfortable, and peaceful accommodation to call their own. Even as a mature student who has been through the student housing process, Edinburgh Realty can assist your search to find exactly what you're looking for and provide you with hundreds of options.
