Purchased Property


35 Plunkett Street, Naremburn

The Brief

Our client, was planning to purchase a new home but first needed a short-term rental before the search was get underway.

The brief was specific:

  • Freestanding home
  • Three bedrooms
  • Two bathrooms
  • One to two car spaces
  • Dedicated study or work-from-home space
  • Six-month lease in either Crows Nest or Naremburn

With a demanding work schedule, the client needed someone to manage the search and inspections on his behalf.

Our Approach

We inspected a selection of suitable rental properties across Crows Nest and Naremburn, providing detailed feedback, videos and recommendations after each inspection.

 

Rather than simply applying for every available property, we focused on homes that would provide the right balance of lifestyle, practicality and flexibility while the client searched for his permanent home. Once the preferred property was identified, we worked directly with the leasing agent to secure favourable lease terms and ensure the application was prioritised.

The Property

  • Freestanding home in a quiet Naremburn street
  • Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and dedicated work-from-home space
  • Close to transport, cafés and the Lower North Shore lifestyle the client was seeking

The Result

  • Six-month lease secured in less than five days
  • Smooth transition while the client searched for a permanent home
  • Time saved through professional inspections, communication and negotiation

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a buyer's agent help me find a rental property?

Yes. We regularly assist clients who are relocating, renovating or transitioning between homes. Managing the search, inspections and negotiations saves time and helps secure the right property more efficiently.

Why would someone rent before buying?

Renting can provide flexibility when timing the sale and purchase of a property or when relocating to a new area. It removes pressure from the buying process and allows buyers to wait for the right opportunity rather than rushing into a purchase.

Can you inspect rental properties on my behalf?

Absolutely. We attend inspections, provide detailed videos and honest feedback, allowing busy professionals and interstate or overseas clients to make informed decisions without being present.

How quickly can you secure a rental property?

Every search is different, but acting quickly is critical in Sydney’s competitive rental market. Having an experienced advocate managing inspections, applications and communication with leasing agents can significantly improve both the speed and quality of the outcome.
