Surrey Downs Property Management

Property Management By Investors, For Investors

Surrey Downs is built on the three-bedroom house. Of the suburb’s homes counted at the 2021 Census, 72.1% had three bedrooms and 95.9% were separate houses. Renters occupied 19.4% of them, a real rental market even if it sits below the 27.6% seen across South Australia.

What that means for your income is competition between fairly similar homes. Your house goes up against others on the same kind of block, so condition and asking rent decide how quickly it lets. Axiom Realty has sold a house in Surrey Downs, and our property managers lease homes close by in Wynn Vale, Ridgehaven, Modbury Heights and Modbury North.

Managing Three-Bedroom Houses in Surrey Downs

Upkeep and compliance on a family block

When most houses in a suburb are alike, a tenant chooses on condition. Worn carpet, a tired bathroom or a dripping tap can push an applicant toward the house two streets over. Before a new tenancy, our property manager goes through your Surrey Downs house with you and leaves a list of fixes ranked by priority, each one quoted by our tradespeople.

Once a tenant moves in, we’re back four times a year for routine inspections, and you get photographs and notes from every one. On a suburban block the things to watch are the roof and gutters, drainage, fences, and the garden the tenant agreed to keep. Your council rates and SA Water bills are paid from rent, and we charge no admin surcharge for doing it.

Surrey Downs falls within the City of Tea Tree Gully. Sheds, carports, pergolas and extensions can be classed as development, and the PlanSA Code viewer sets out what is allowed at your address. We’ll flag a job that might need approval before it’s booked. Townhouses were 4.4% of Surrey Downs homes in 2021, and where one sits in a strata or community scheme, we take care of dealings with its manager on common property and levies. The rest of the service is on our residential property management page.

Who Rents in Surrey Downs

Tenants, work and your rental income

Surrey Downs has a working family profile. At the 2021 Census, technicians and trades workers were its largest occupation group at 17.9% of employed residents, followed by clerical and administrative workers and then professionals. Hospitals, aged care homes and supermarkets were the top employing industries.

Families made up 74.8% of households, and one-parent families were 18.8% of families, above the state’s 16.6%. For a landlord, that points to tenants who want a fenced yard, an easy walk to Surrey Downs Primary School on Vine Street, and somewhere to park a work vehicle. A house that offers those tends to keep its tenant, and every lease renewal spares you a gap in rent.

Most residents drive to work, 66.2% on Census day, while 5.2% took the bus. The suburb is a triangle bounded by Golden Grove Road, Hancock Road and Grenfell Road, with its own small shopping centre, and the Illyarrie Reserve oval is home to the Golden Grove Central Districts Baseball Club.

We also manage homes in suburbs that border Surrey Downs, including Wynn Vale, Ridgehaven, Modbury Heights and Modbury North, and our Fairview Park page covers the suburb next door. Owners receive rent in two payouts every week.

Have a Question?

Moderate for the area. Renters lived in 19.4% of Surrey Downs homes at the 2021 Census, compared with 27.6% for South Australia, and 48.7% were owned with a mortgage. Because most rentals are similar three-bedroom houses, condition and price usually decide which one leases first.
Mainly families, including a good number of one-parent families, and people working in trades, clerical and care jobs. Family households were 74.8% of Surrey Downs households in 2021, and technicians and trades workers were the largest occupation group.
Begin with the essentials: smoke alarms, electrical safety, hot water, heating and secure locks. Then deal with leaks, drainage and worn floor coverings, which affect both the rent and how well the tenant looks after the house. We’ll rank the list with you and get quotes from our tradespeople.
