This site was built to finally give Australian tenants a place to comment confidentially on their property mis-management, property disputes, repeat bond losses and other tenancy / landlord / agent issues that can arise during a tenancy period. On the flip side, comments on great properties can also be made.
Comment on your property, create an account and list your property, so others others can make an informed decision when renting. Your name and details are kept confidential.
When looking at a new property for lease, visit this site, and make sure it receives good ratings.
Using the search tool, just type in the address, or part of the address, or even just the postcode - results will appear relative to your search words.
This website is provided free of charge to tenants in Australia - residential and commercial.
Note to tenants - using this website - Please don't slander any person, landlord or agent. You are responsible for what you write on this website. Make use of the options available for comment, and never refer to a landlord or agents name or business name. Remember to only comment on the property you have resided at.
Note to landlords - Pick up your act. You've had it pretty easy for a while now - start maintaining your properties and listening to your tenants. Every other business must listen to their clients and it is time you did as well.
So if you've ever had issues arise from bad landlords or poor management from agents - list your property here so others don't make the same mistake.
