Parkside Property Management

Property Management By Investors, For Investors

Parkside sits on the southern edge of the park lands, between Unley Road and Fullarton Road, and a large share of it is rented. At the 2021 Census, renters occupied 38.5% of its homes, well clear of the 27.6% state figure, and only a little over half of the housing was separate houses. Townhouses, semi-detached homes and flats made up the remainder.

For a landlord, that means a deep tenant pool and plenty of comparable stock on the market at any time. The homes that let quickly are the ones priced to the street and kept in good order. Axiom Realty looks after rentals all over Greater Adelaide. If you want to test us first, there is a 100-day risk-free period and no lock-in contract.

Looking After Parkside’s Housing Stock

Older houses, townhouse groups and strata

Parkside’s housing is a mix of older houses and later townhouse and flat groups. At the 2021 Census, 27.1% of homes were semi-detached, row or terrace houses or townhouses, and 18.8% were flats or apartments, both well above the state shares. Each type wears differently. An older house tends to show its age in roofs, gutters, stormwater and cracked plaster, while a townhouse group raises questions about shared driveways, fences and common walls.

Every three months we carry out a routine inspection and send you photos of what we found. Small faults get quoted and fixed while they are still small, and anything that can wait is noted for the next round so you can budget for it.

If the home belongs to a strata or community scheme, the corporation’s manager hears from us directly, common-property faults go to them, and your tenant receives the by-laws when the lease begins. We pay levies, council rates and SA Water out of the rent and add no admin surcharge for doing it.

Parkside falls within the City of Unley. Work that alters a home’s exterior can require development approval under South Australia’s planning rules, and the PlanSA code viewer shows what applies to your address. Before any such job is booked, we’ll tell you it may need approval. Our residential property management page describes the whole service.

Who Rents in Parkside

Tenants, transport and your income

Parkside’s renters are often professionals working close to the city. At the 2021 Census, 40.9% of employed residents were professionals, almost double the state share, and hospitals, higher education and legal services ranked high among local industries. Group households made up 6.2% of homes, compared with 3.4% statewide, which points to sharers as well as couples and families.

Many residents leave the car at home. On Census day, 6.6% of workers cycled and 6.3% walked, both far above the state figures, and 15.1% worked from home. Buses run along Unley Road and Glen Osmond Road, and the Unley Road shops and cafés are a walk away. A secure spot for bikes, a quiet room to work in and reliable heating and cooling are worth pointing out in the listing.

Two-bedroom homes were 34.8% of Parkside’s dwellings, against 18.0% across the state, so a two-bedroom rental faces plenty of similar listings. Presentation, a realistic asking rent and quick repairs keep good tenants renewing, and every renewal spares you a vacant period and the work of finding a new tenant.

We have leased homes in neighbouring Glenside, Fullarton and Glenunga, and our pages for Unley and Highgate cover those suburbs. Rent reaches you in two payouts every week, and owners living elsewhere can read about our interstate landlord service.

Common Parkside Property Management FAQs

Have a Question?

Each finds tenants. Separate houses were 53.8% of Parkside’s homes at the 2021 Census, townhouses and similar homes 27.1% and flats 18.8%. Townhouses and flats suit the suburb’s couples, sharers and people living alone, and houses draw families wanting a yard close to the city. We set the rent against what is currently listed nearby.

Safety and basics come first: smoke alarms, wiring, hot water, heating and locks. Next are faults that get dearer the longer they wait, such as leaking gutters, damp walls and blocked stormwater. We’ll go through the house together and put the jobs in order, with quotes from our tradespeople.

Not always. On Census day in 2021, fewer than half of Parkside’s workers drove to work, and many cycled, walked or worked from home. Parking still helps, especially for families, but a home without it can lease well if it is close to Unley Road or a bus stop and priced to match.

Yes. A photo report arrives after each routine inspection, rent is paid out twice weekly, and the PropertyMe owner portal shows your statements at any hour. Council rates, SA Water and strata levies come out of the rent.

We keep our pricing simple and transparent: an all-inclusive management fee with no admin charges or hidden extras. We’ll give you a written quote for your property, with every cost set out before you sign.
