Sturt's Premier Rental Management Services

Property Management By Investors, For Investors

Sturt is a compact City of Marion suburb wedged between Marion, Mitchell Park and Bedford Park. Of its occupied homes in 2021, 39.9% were rented, well above South Australia’s 27.6%, and 32.8% were townhouses or semi-detached homes, more than double the state share.

Sturt landlords therefore deal with a busy market for both family houses and smaller homes, and plenty of competing listings. Axiom Realty has leased in Sturt and in the neighbouring suburbs of Tonsley, Mitchell Park and Dover Gardens, and we manage and sell across Greater Adelaide.

Managing Houses and Townhouses in Sturt

Strata, upkeep and approvals

Close to a third of Sturt dwellings are townhouses or semi-detached homes, and many sit under strata or community title. For a Sturt unit, we speak to the corporation’s manager about common-property defects, pay the levies from your rental income at no extra charge, and hand every incoming tenant the by-laws.

Separate houses were 67.1% of Sturt homes in 2021, and 64.9% of all dwellings had three bedrooms. Whatever a house’s age, its roof, gutters, plumbing and cooling need regular checks. Our managers inspect each quarter and send a photo report every time, and if work stacks up we can tour the property with you, rank the fixes and bring quotes from our tradespeople.

Carports, extensions and second dwellings can trigger the Planning and Design Code, and PlanSA will show the controls on any Sturt lot. When a job might need consent, we tell you before anyone is booked. Our residential management page covers everything else.

Who Rents in Sturt

Health workers, small households and your return

Many Sturt residents work in health and care. Hospitals were the leading employer of Sturt residents in 2021, followed by aged care and other social assistance, and community and personal service workers were 17.2% of employed residents against 13.0% statewide. Flinders Medical Centre and Flinders University lie just over the Bedford Park boundary.

Households are small and mixed. One-person households were 33.1% of Sturt homes and group households 6.2%, close to double the state share, while one-parent families made up 22.4% of families. India was the top overseas birthplace, ahead of England and China.

Not every tenant drives. At the 2021 Census, 11.1% of Sturt homes had no registered vehicle, against 7.1% statewide, and 4.2% of workers took a bus. Westfield Marion, Adelaide’s largest shopping centre, is in neighbouring Oaklands Park. A tenant who can walk to shops and work tends to stay, and each renewal spares you lost rent. Sturt owners are paid twice weekly.

Axiom also manages rentals in Tonsley, Mitchell Park, Dover Gardens, Marion and Seacombe Heights. If you are interstate, read how we handle landlords in other states.

A broad mix. One in three Sturt homes was a lone-person household in 2021, group households were 6.2%, and hospitals and aged care were the biggest employers of residents. Being near Flinders Medical Centre and Westfield Marion helps a listing.
