This would be the most important decision of all to be made in regard to your property. In choosing the correct tenant, everything else should, and usually is, trouble free. It is always wise to wait for the right tenant to come along than proceed with an applicant that is sub-standard. The result could end up costing a lot more than the weeks rent it may have cost you by waiting.
Once a Tenant has made the decision to apply for the property, we then assist the applicant with the completion of our comprehensive application form, ensuring during this “interview” process we have all the information we require to make an informed decision on their ability to pay the rent and look after the property.
By law, we must allow any person to view a property when requested and also allow that person to complete our application form. The applicant must pass a 100 point check before being considered as a potential tenant. The application is then accepted or rejected based on the following criteria:
Only when all of these checks are completed is this information passed on to the Owner for discussion. The decision to accept or reject an application will always be the owner’s. We supply the information and a recommendation to assist in making the decision.
Our office will not consider accepting a tenancy application before first doing a check with TICA. This organisation is an Australia-wide database service which records and reveals any tenant who has previously left a debt at a property or has a Court judgment made against them anywhere in Australia and/or New Zealand.

The team at Pillar Property found the ideal investment property for us. They also coordinated the renovation which provided us with a substantial increase in rent. He now manages all of our properties. Whilst we were both working overseas, it was imperative that we have someone looking after our properties that we could trust. Chris and his team have now sourced 3 properties for us and have co-ordinated renovations on these properties

Chris has been providing us with advice and guidance on our property portfolio since 2006. As well as sourcing our properties they also manage all of them for us. The team at Pillar Property do a lot more than manage tenants and collect rent. They have helped us increase the value of our properties through coordination of renovations, maximising the rent and reducing repairs and maintenance costs

Thank you Chris for all your help in the buying process. Your service and thorough process enabled me to find the ideal property. There were boxes which I thought needed to be ticked in choosing the right property for me. You and your team achieved this and I am extremely happy with the outcome.
Your experience in the buying process made a world of difference to the end result. I would be very keen to recommend your services to friends and family.
Your attention to detail in selecting the right property really paid off. I look forward to working with you again in the near future.
Thank you again for a job well done. Excellent outcome.

I found Chris and his team to be very responsive to my needs and they delivered options promptly and efficiently. Within no time at all I had purchased a property and I feel confident that Chris has given me the best information and guided me throughout the process. He helped negotiate a great price which would have saved me money as I wouldn’t have had the confidence to go for the offer he made. He engaged the services of relevant providers to ensure the process of purchasing ran smoothly throughout. I feel proud of my new investment and confident that I have made a great decision with the support of Chris and Pillar property.

Highly Recommended.
My wife and I recently purchased an investment through Chris and his team at Pillar Property, and would like to thank them for their very professional and thorough service. We were very specific what we were looking for as an investment. Not only did he find the ideal property, but also negotiated the best possible price, saving us far more that the cost of his services. Chris and his team looked after us every step of the way explaining step by step what the order of event would be through constant communication.
They were personally involved carrying out a number of inspections on the property to ensure that all renovations that were agreed to on the contract of sale were done to a professional level. Even though we were overseas at the time of settlement, Chris and his team took care of everything seamlessly.
There was nothing that was too difficult and all our many questions were dealt with and answered clearly. Chris and his team offered a full comprehensive service from finding us the right property, through to contract/ settlement and even property management. Highly recommended for anybody who wants to invest in property with confidence.
Well Done
