NEWEL — MELBOURNE

Your rent arrives the same day every month. Even when nobody’s home.

We lease your property directly and pay you a fixed rent every month, booked out or empty. We furnish it at our cost, look after every guest, and hand it back better than we found it.

THE OFFER

We become your tenant. Everything after that is our problem.

Fixed rent

Rent lands in your account on the same day every month, whether the property is booked out or sits empty. That risk is ours now, not yours.

Furnished at our cost

We furnish it properly, at our cost — and the fit-out stays with the property. No management fee, no furnishing bill, no guest ever calls you.

Returned better

At the end of the term you get it back furnished, professionally cleaned, and in better condition than a long-term tenancy would leave it.

HOW IT WORKS

Five steps. In order.

1
We come and look

A visit, a conversation, and a fixed rent offer in writing. Usually within a week.

2
We ask your owners corporation first

Written consent before anything else. Honestly, this takes weeks, not days — and if the OC says no, we walk away.

3
We sign the lease

A head lease — we're your tenant, with the same obligations any tenant carries, in writing.

4
We furnish it, at our cost

Professional fit-out, photography and safety checks. Two to three weeks, and the furniture stays with the property.

5
You get paid, every month

Rent monthly in advance, guests screened, every stay insured, and a written condition report each quarter.

THE QUESTIONS THAT MATTER

Three things owners ask us before they sign.

“Won’t the owners corporation fight this?”

We ask them before we do anything else. Written consent, obtained by us, before we list. If the answer is no, there’s no deal — we don’t operate around an OC, ever.

“What if a guest wrecks the place?”

Every guest is screened before they get a key, and every stay is insured, including public liability. We inspect regularly and you see the written reports — you’ll know the condition of your property better than you do with a long-term tenant.

“What if you stop paying?”

Then you hold the same remedies you’d have against any tenant — it’s a lease, not a promise. Rent is paid monthly in advance, so you’re never chasing money already owed.

COMPLIANCE

What we’ve already dealt with before we ask for your keys.

— Written owners corporation consent, before we operate
— Public liability insurance; certificate available on request
— Victorian short stay levy — ours to register and remit, not yours
— Every guest screened, every stay insured
— Quarterly inspections with written condition reports
— Professional cleaning between every stay
ENQUIRY

Tell us about your property.

We’ll come back with a fixed rent offer in writing. No obligation, and we won’t call you twice.

A newel is the post a staircase turns around. It carries the load, and nothing else can move without it.
