Tusmore Property Management

Property Management By Investors, For Investors

Tusmore is a compact residential suburb in Adelaide’s inner east, inside the City of Burnside, and its rentals come in two kinds. At the 2021 Census, 70.6% of homes were separate houses and 29.4% were townhouses or semi-detached homes, about double the state share, while 23.4% of all homes were rented.

Each kind needs its own plan. A townhouse wins tenants on finish, parking and running costs; a house wins them on space, garden and the school run. Axiom Realty manages rentals across the eastern suburbs and has leased homes in Linden Park, Kensington Park and Glenside.

Managing Townhouses and Houses in Tusmore

Strata schemes, older homes and approvals

Tusmore’s street pattern goes back to 1911, when the South Australian Company’s Colonial Board of Advice cut up Section 291, and streets such as Bakewell, Barr-Smith and Stirling still carry the names of its board members. Today almost three in ten homes are townhouses or semi-detached, so a single street can mix an early house with a newer strata group.

Most of those townhouses belong to a strata or community scheme. Your property manager talks to the corporation’s manager for you, sends common-property faults their way so the repair isn’t charged to your rent, makes sure tenants receive the scheme rules, and settles levies out of rent with no surcharge on top.

A separate house has the longer list: roof, gutters, large trees, fences and hot water. Four times a year we inspect and send you photographs of what we found, so a dripping tap or loose downpipe is dealt with while it is cheap. Before a new lease, we’ll tour the home with you and rank the repairs, each with a tradesperson’s quote.

Some changes to how a Tusmore home looks, and any demolition, may need consent under the Planning and Design Code, depending on the overlays for the address. Search your property on PlanSA, and expect us to raise a possible approval before a job is booked. See our residential property management service for the rest.

Who Rents in Tusmore

Professional households and your rental return

Tusmore’s residents are mostly professionals, many with families. In 2021, couples with children made up 48.5% of the suburb’s families, professionals were 39.5% of employed residents and managers another 16.6%. Hospitals, general practice clinics and legal firms were among the main employers, and 2.5% of workers rode a bicycle to work, compared with 0.9% statewide.

Tusmore Park, which the suburb shares with Heathpool, has five tennis courts, a playground, a children’s paddling pool and electric barbecues, with First Creek running through it. The Burnside Civic Centre and library stand at the Portrush Road and Greenhill Road corner, and Burnside Village shopping centre is on the Glenside side of the same intersection.

Two-bedroom homes, 29.0% of the total, appeal to couples and people living alone, while houses of four or more bedrooms, 35.7%, appeal to families. We set the asking rent from comparable listings of the same type, so the home is let quickly and the tenant who signs has reason to renew.

Axiom has leased homes in Linden Park, Kensington Park, Kensington and Glenside, and our team can look after a rental in Toorak Gardens too.

Common Tusmore Property Management FAQs

Have a Question?

Mostly professionals and families. Nearly half of Tusmore’s families in 2021 were couples with children, and professionals and managers together made up more than half of its working residents. Townhouses also draw couples and people on their own, who were 20.9% of households.

We act as the go-between with the strata or community corporation’s manager. Levy notices come to us and are paid out of rent at no extra admin cost, faults in common areas go to the corporation, and your tenant gets the by-laws covering pets, parking and noise.

Possibly. Work that changes the street appearance of a home, or demolition, can need consent, depending on the overlays for the address. The PlanSA Code viewer shows what applies, and the City of Burnside’s planners can explain it. We’ll raise any job that might need approval before it’s booked.

Yes. You get photographs and notes after each of four inspections a year, rent paid to your account twice a week, and statements online in the PropertyMe owner portal around the clock. Council rates, SA Water and strata levies are paid from the rent with no 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.
