How to Attract the Right Tenants for Your Property
With demand for Gold Coast rentals at an all-time high, landlords are finding it easier than ever to fill vacancies. However, as highlighted by API Magazine, attracting just any tenant isn’t the goal attracting the right tenant is. That means finding renters who are reliable, respectful, and long-term minded.
Whether you own Coomera properties, Upper Coomera properties, or are looking to lease out 4209 properties, partnering with experienced professionals like REMAX United is key to achieving lasting rental success.
Why Tenant Quality Matters
In today’s fast-paced rental market, especially across Gold Coast properties, a flood of applications doesn’t mean landlords can relax. Stricter rental regulations (such as changes to eviction laws in NSW) have raised the stakes, requiring landlords to be more selective than ever.
This is where partnering with top-tier Gold Coast agents and leveraging services like property appraisals, rental history reports, and tenant screening offered by REMAX United can make all the difference.
1. Keep Your Property in Prime Condition
Well-maintained homes attract responsible tenants. Whether your property is located in Coomera or the broader Gold Coast property market, cleanliness, upkeep, and modern features matter. Tenants looking to rent a property on the Gold Coast will often compare homes based on presentation and amenities.
Looking to understand your property’s current market position? Use a house price estimate, home value calculator, or request a property appraisal from your local RE/MAX agent to determine if an upgrade could boost your rental yield.

2. Set a Competitive Rental Price
Correct pricing is a balancing act. Set your rent too high and you risk long vacancies; too low and you reduce your return. Accurate pricing can be achieved using tools like:
• Home value estimator
• House value estimator
• Property value estimate
Alternatively, request a digital property report or property price estimate from RE/MAX United to access suburb-specific rental data and recent leasing comparisons.

3. Market Your Property Professionally
The best tenants are drawn to properties that look their best online and in person. When marketing Gold Coast properties for sale or Gold Coast rentals, professional photography, well-written descriptions, and staging make a significant difference.
Partnering with a respected name like REMAX Gold Coast gives your property greater visibility on high-traffic real estate platforms, social media, and targeted local campaigns across Coomera properties and 4209 rentals.

4. Conduct Comprehensive Tenant Screening
Screening is non-negotiable. It’s not enough to accept the first tenant who applies. Screen applicants for:
• Employment and income verification
• Creditworthiness
• Past rental history
With RE/MAX United’s comprehensive tenant application process, you’ll gain access to reliable background data, reference checks, and rental histories that help ensure a good fit.

5. Provide Clear Lease Terms
Clarity reduces conflict. Your lease should clearly outline:
• Rent amounts and payment schedules
• Responsibilities for utilities and maintenance
• Policies regarding pets, smoking, and subletting
Working with a property agent from REMAX United ensures all documents are legally compliant and tailored to your specific investment goals.

6. Be Responsive and Respectful
Tenants stay longer when they feel respected. That means returning messages promptly, addressing maintenance issues quickly, and giving proper notice before inspections.
If you’re not local or don’t want the day-to-day hassle, why not ask REMAX rentals to manage your Gold Coast property ensures professional, responsive service, both for you and your tenants.

7. Incentivise Great Tenants to Stay
Long-term tenants reduce turnover costs and wear-and-tear. Consider offering small incentives to renew, such as:
• Minor rent discounts
• Fresh paint or carpet cleaning
• Appliance upgrades
These small gestures encourage loyalty and help retain tenants in competitive areas like Upper Coomera and Coomera, where demand is high.
