Toorak Gardens Property Management

Property Management By Investors, For Investors

Toorak Gardens is a small, settled suburb between Kensington Road and Greenhill Road, and most of its homes are occupied by their owners. At the 2021 Census, 46.5% of homes were owned outright, against 32.8% across South Australia, and 26.0% were rented. Townhouses and semi-detached homes made up 30.2% of the housing, about double the state share.

For a landlord, that means a modest number of quality rentals and tenants with high expectations of them. Axiom Realty manages and sells property throughout Greater Adelaide, and close by, homes in Rose Park, Glenside, Linden Park and Norwood have been leased by our team.

Managing Character Homes and Townhouses in Toorak Gardens

Older houses, strata groups and approvals

Much of Toorak Gardens was built in the 1920s and 1930s as single-storey villas, Tudor Revival houses and bungalows on allotments of around a quarter of an acre. Early building covenants allowed only brick, stone or reinforced concrete under slate, iron or tile roofs, and a 1912 newspaper report described nearly all the first houses being roofed in Marseilles tiles. Today the maintenance money mostly goes on those roofs, box gutters, original timber windows and the large trees in old gardens.

Each quarter our property manager inspects the home and sends you a report with photographs. Ahead of a new lease, we tour the house together and agree a ranked list of repairs, each priced by a tradesperson we trust, so the tenant moves into a home that matches the rent you are asking.

Townhouses and units here are usually on strata or community title. Our property manager deals directly with the corporation’s manager, reports common-property faults to them and makes sure each tenant has the by-laws. Strata levies, council rates and SA Water are met from rent, with no admin surcharge added.

Work that changes the outside of a character house can need development approval under the Planning and Design Code. Search the address on PlanSA, or ask the City of Burnside, before planning anything, and we’ll raise any job that looks like it needs approval before booking it. Our residential property management page outlines the wider service.

Who Rents in Toorak Gardens

Professional tenants and what they expect

Toorak Gardens residents are strongly professional. In the 2021 Census, professionals were 42.3% of employed residents and managers 17.8%. Hospitals employed 10.0% of working residents, double the state figure, in a suburb that contains the private Burnside Hospital, and general practice, legal services and universities also featured.

Households vary. Couples with children were 46.3% of families and couples without children 42.8%, while people living alone made up 27.7% of households. Almost one home in ten had a single bedroom, against 3.3% statewide, so small units have a market here alongside family villas.

On Census day 15.8% of employed residents worked from home and 4.3% took the bus, with services along Kensington Road. Tenants paying for a home here weigh up a study, secure parking, heating and cooling, and a garden that has been cared for. Meet those standards and vacancies stay short and good tenants renew.

Our property managers also cover nearby suburbs, including Rose Park, Glenside, Linden Park, Tusmore and Kensington. Rent is paid to you twice weekly, and owners living outside South Australia can read about our interstate service.

Common Toorak Gardens Property Management FAQs

Have a Question?

Both have a market. At the 2021 Census, 65.1% of homes were separate houses and 30.2% townhouses or semi-detached homes, and almost one home in ten had a single bedroom. Villas suit families and professional couples, and smaller units suit single people. We compare your home with current listings before setting the rent.

Possibly, but external changes to an older home can need development approval. Check the address on PlanSA or with the City of Burnside first. If we think a job falls into that category, you’ll hear from us before it goes ahead.

Through regular checks and early repairs. We inspect four times a year and photograph what we find, and our tradespeople quote before work starts, so faults in roofs, gutters or timber are fixed while they are still small.

Yes. We liaise with the strata or community corporation’s manager, pass common-property repairs to them, give tenants the by-laws and settle your levies out of rent without an admin surcharge.

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.
