Dunedin Property Management
We work with landlords and property investors who want reliable, hands on management that protects their investment, attracts quality tenants, and delivers consistent long term rental performance.
For more than 15 years, we have helped Dunedin landlords achieve consistent income while reducing the day to day demands of managing a rental.
We provide end-to-end property management, including maintenance, compliance, and renovation project management, with clear fees and no lock in contracts.
Whether you are self-managing and ready to step back, or looking for a more responsive and structured approach, our team provides practical, straightforward property management.
Who we work with
We work with a wide range of property owners across Dunedin, including:
- Owners who have been self-managing and want to step back
- Mum and Dad investors building retirement savings through property
- Property investors growing or managing a portfolio
- Out-of-town and overseas owners who rely on a trusted local partner
- Landlords who are ready for a more reliable property management experience
Our approach is tailored to each property and owner, with a focus on practical outcomes, clear communication, and consistent management.
What we do
We manage every aspect of your rental, from tenant placement through to day to day management, maintenance, and compliance.
If you would like to see how this works in more detail, you can view our full Property Management Services.
Our service includes:
- Tenant selection and placement with careful screening
- Rent collection and arrears management
- Quarterly property inspections and photographic reports
- Maintenance coordination through trusted local trades.

"Matt has been instrumental and exceptionally efficient in managing my property in Dunedin. From our first meeting, when we were selecting the right agent, it was clear that he was the ideal choice. His approach impressed us, and I can confidently say that Matt consistently goes above and beyond the call of duty."
