Leabrook Property Management

Property Management By Investors, For Investors

Leabrook has more townhouses and units than many people expect. By the 2021 Census count, semi-detached houses, townhouses and terraces accounted for 32.9% of Leabrook’s occupied homes, with a further 26.3% in flats or apartment blocks, which left separate houses at 40.3%. One home in five, 20.7%, was rented.

Leabrook’s tenant pool leans towards small households, and the right property suits a professional couple or a single tenant who wants a mainly residential suburb close to Kensington Road. Axiom Realty manages rentals in the City of Burnside and has leased homes in neighbouring Kensington Park, Kensington and Linden Park.

Managing Leabrook Townhouses, Units and Houses

Strata schemes, shared walls and approvals

With close to six in ten Leabrook homes attached or in a block, much of what is rented out belongs to a strata or community scheme. Our team handles the dealings with each corporation’s manager, refers faults in common areas to them and makes sure an incoming tenant has the by-laws in hand. Strata levies, council rates and SA Water bills come out of the rent without an admin surcharge from us.

Townhouses often share walls, driveways and roofs, so a leak or a blocked drain can affect more than one home. During our quarterly routine inspections, each written up in a photo report, we look for water marks, cracked tiles and failing seals. When several jobs fall due together, we’ll walk the home with you, list the work from most to least urgent and gather quotes from our tradespeople.

For more than a century, from 1881 until it moved to Regency Park in 2001, the Coopers brewery operated in Leabrook, and the old site is now a retirement village. Across the rest of the suburb, an extension or a new carport can require consent under the Planning and Design Code, and PlanSA lists the rules for each address. If a job you’ve asked for may need approval, you’ll hear from us before anyone is booked. For everything else we do, visit residential property management.

Who Rents in Leabrook

Small households and what they look for

Living alone is common in Leabrook: 44.3% of households were one person at the 2021 Census, well above the state’s 28.5%. Among families, couples without children were the majority, at 51.5%. Of those in work, 40.5% were professionals and 17.3% managers, and hospitals, legal services and general practice medicine were among the leading industries.

A further 16.6% of homes were in the Census group for other tenure types, which includes life tenure schemes, and the suburb is home to On Statenborough, a retirement village of 134 apartments and units. So the usual rental market is smaller than a count of the units would imply.

For a two-bedroom townhouse or unit, the things that win these tenants over are a quiet layout, secure parking, storage and room to work, since 16.7% of Leabrook’s workers were based at home at the 2021 Census. Adelaide Metro buses run along Kensington Road towards the city, and 4.1% of workers rode a bicycle, against 0.9% statewide. A tenant who is comfortable tends to renew, and each renewal spares you a gap between leases.

We have leased homes in Kensington Park, Kensington and Linden Park, and you can also read about Tusmore and Kensington Gardens. Owners outside South Australia should see our page on interstate management.

Common Leabrook Property Management FAQs

Have a Question?

A real mix. Leabrook’s homes at the 2021 Census were 40.3% separate houses, 32.9% townhouses or semi-detached homes and 26.3% flats or apartments. Homes with two bedrooms led, at 42.6%, matching the many one- and two-person households.

Retirement living is part of the answer. In 2021 the Census put 16.6% of the suburb’s homes in its other tenure group, which includes life tenure schemes, against 2.6% for South Australia. On Statenborough, a retirement village with 134 apartments and units, is in Leabrook.
