Advertise a Rental Property in WA

As a landlord in Western Australia, you may have believed that only a real estate agent could help you advertise your rental property effectively. That belief is outdated. With Landlords Australia, you can now advertise privately and achieve the same level of exposure as agents. You no longer have to surrender control of your property or pay high fees for services you can now do yourself. Instead, you can list your property directly, reach tenants on the same platforms agents use, and keep more of your rental income in your pocket.

Whether your property is in Perth, Fremantle, Bunbury, Geraldton, or a smaller regional town, our platform gives you equal access to Australia’s most popular rental websites. Tenants will see your property displayed alongside those listed by agents. The difference is that you remain in control of the process, and the costs are far lower.

The Advantages of Advertising Privately in WA

There are many benefits to advertising your property privately with Landlords Australia. By choosing our service, you enjoy independence, savings, and professional reach without compromise. Some of the key advantages include:

• Equal exposure: Your property is listed on the same websites that agents use, meaning tenants searching in WA will see your listing alongside agency-managed properties.
• Cost efficiency: By avoiding agent commissions and management fees, you save thousands of dollars across the life of a tenancy.
• Direct communication: Enquiries come straight to you, so you respond directly and quickly to tenants without waiting for an agent to pass on information.
• Control: You decide who inspects, who applies, and who you accept as tenants. Every decision stays in your hands.
• Flexibility: You can update rental amounts, change photos, or edit descriptions whenever you choose, with no delays.

How the Listing Process Works

The process of advertising with Landlords Australia is straightforward. First, you choose your preferred advertising package. Then, you upload your property details, including rent, bond, lease terms, and photographs. Once complete, your listing is published across leading rental websites where tenants in WA are searching every day. From there, you start receiving enquiries directly from prospective tenants.

Our system is designed to be easy to use. Even if you are new to property management, you will find it simple to create a professional listing that attracts serious tenant interest. Within hours, your property can be online and accessible to thousands of renters across the state.

Understanding Western Australia’s Rental Laws

When you advertise a rental property in WA, you must comply with the Residential Tenancies Act 1987. This legislation outlines your responsibilities as a landlord, including the requirement to provide a written tenancy agreement, lodge bonds with the Bond Administrator, and supply tenants with a property condition report. You must also ensure that your property meets minimum health and safety standards.

Landlords Australia helps you stay compliant by providing guidance on what is required under WA tenancy laws. From bond lodgement to documentation, you will have access to the information you need to meet your obligations while still enjoying the independence of advertising privately.

The Importance of Exposure in WA

Exposure is the key to securing tenants quickly in Western Australia. In Perth, where the rental market is competitive, the right listing can make the difference between weeks of vacancy and a full tenancy. In regional areas such as Albany, Broome, or Kalgoorlie, visibility is equally important as tenants often rely heavily on online searches when finding accommodation. By advertising with Landlords Australia, you ensure your property is displayed where tenants are actively looking, giving you the best chance to attract enquiries and applications fast.

Without strong exposure, your property risks remaining vacant. With us, you receive the same reach as agents, but at a fraction of the cost.

Tips for Writing and Presenting Your Listing

To get the best results, you need more than exposure; you need to present your property in a way that appeals to tenants. Here are some effective tips to create a successful listing:

• Use professional photos: Tenants are drawn to clear, high-quality images. Take photos during the day when natural light is strongest and show every important room.
• Write a detailed description: Include features such as air conditioning, outdoor space, storage areas, and parking options.
• Highlight lifestyle benefits: Mention proximity to beaches, cafes, schools, or public transport. In WA, lifestyle often plays a big role in tenant decisions.
• Provide clear terms: State the rent, bond, lease term, and pet policy so that tenants know exactly what is expected.

When your listing is transparent and engaging, tenants are more likely to make genuine enquiries and follow through with applications.

Managing Tenant Enquiries and Inspections

Once your property is live, tenant enquiries will come directly to you. This gives you full control over how and when you respond. You can arrange inspections at times that suit you and the applicants. Tenants often prefer this direct interaction because it feels more personal and responsive than going through an agent.

When conducting inspections, make sure your property is clean, tidy, and ready to showcase. Be prepared to answer questions and highlight the features that make your property stand out. Meeting applicants face-to-face also helps you evaluate their suitability for your property.

Screening and Selecting Tenants

Tenant selection is one of the most important parts of managing your property. In WA, you should always check references, confirm employment, and review rental history. Taking these steps reduces the risk of rent arrears or property damage. Landlords Australia provides advice on best practices for tenant screening so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

By handling screening yourself, you have the final say in who occupies your property. You know your expectations best, and you are free to choose a tenant who meets them.

Financial Benefits of Advertising Privately

One of the biggest reasons landlords choose Landlords Australia is the financial benefit. Agents often charge letting fees, ongoing management fees, and commissions that reduce your rental income. By advertising privately, you avoid these charges. The savings can be significant, especially over multiple tenancies and years of investment.

Every dollar you save by avoiding agent fees is money that stays with you. It can be reinvested into your property, used to cover maintenance, or simply enjoyed as extra income. Over time, this makes a major difference to the profitability of your investment.
