Northgate Property Management

Property Management By Investors, For Investors

Northgate is a suburb of family houses. The 2021 Census recorded 88.7% of its homes as separate houses, 43.8% of them big enough for four bedrooms or more, and 56.9% of its families were parents with children at home. Tenants occupied just 22.6% of homes, below the 27.6% seen across SA.

For a landlord, that is a smaller rental pool of big homes, let mostly to families who want space, schools and parking. Axiom Realty has leased houses in Northgate and sold a townhouse here, and our managers inspect every rental four times a year and report each visit with photos.

Managing a Northgate Family Home

Large houses, big-ticket upkeep and approvals

Census collectors found no flats at all in Northgate in 2021, and semis and townhouses came to only 10.8% of its housing. Until 2016, the suburb also covered much of what is now Lightsview, created from parts of Northgate, Greenacres and Northfield.

A large house carries large bills when something fails: heating and cooling systems, hot water, a big roof and long runs of fencing. The quarterly visit is where we pick up wear early, so you can plan for a replacement rather than pay for it in a hurry when it breaks mid-tenancy.

Between leases, your manager goes through the Northgate house room by room and sends you the jobs in priority order, quoted by tradespeople we know. Port Adelaide Enfield rates and water bills are settled from rent without an admin fee, and PropertyMe keeps your statements open to you round the clock.

A pergola, shed, extension or granny flat in Northgate can require development consent, and PlanSA’s viewer shows the rules for your lot. Any work of ours that could need approval is raised with you before it is booked. For the rest, read about our residential property management.

Who Rents in Northgate

Professional families and what they pay for

Northgate’s working residents lean professional. In 2021, professionals were 29.5% of employed residents, against 21.5% statewide, followed by clerical and administrative workers and managers. Hospitals were the top employing industry, and defence employed 3.7% of workers, well above the state’s 0.8%.

The average household held three people, and 49.5% of homes had two registered vehicles. Most residents drove to work, and 10.7% worked from home on Census day. Northgate Village Shopping Centre, with a Woolworths supermarket, is at Fosters Road and Folland Avenue; Cedar College, a Reception to Year 12 Christian school, is on Fosters Road; and buses use Fosters Road and Grand Junction Road.

A family tenant here weighs bedrooms, storage, secure parking for two cars and the school run. Meet that brief and families tend to renew, which protects your income from gaps between leases. Your share of the rent is paid out on two days each week.

Around Northgate, Axiom has leased homes in Northfield, Lightsview, Walkley Heights, Greenacres and Clearview. If you are based outside SA, see how we look after interstate owners.
