Kogarah landlord considerations

These priorities should be applied to the individual property and current market evidence.

Strata coordination

Check building rules, access procedures and common-property responsibilities before work or tenancy changes.

Access and parking

Document keys, intercoms, garages and visitor access so inspections and trades can be coordinated efficiently.

Dwelling-specific demand

Assess apartments and houses against genuinely comparable local listings rather than one blended market view.

Condition and presentation

Prepare the property carefully and resolve visible maintenance issues before marketing.
