    FAQ

    • Toggle Toggle I am moving overseas / interstate and need someone to look after my property, can you help?

      Currently around 30% of our clients are located either overseas or interstate. The property management processes remain exactly the same and are in fact sometimes a little bit smoother with owners being happy to delegate additional responsibility to us in terms of maintenance, re-leasing and rent reviews.

    • Toggle Toggle Do I need Landlord Insurance?

      Based on the wide-ranging legal responsibilities imposed on the owners in the ACT by the Residential Tenancies Act 1997 we strongly advise all of our clients to be fully covered by adequate landlord insurance. The types of cover can vary with different insurers but generally include the following; legal liability for death or injury, loss of rental income, damage to property furnishings and loss or damage to the building caused by tenants.

    • Toggle Toggle Who pays the water charges, tenants or landlords?

      In the ACT, there are two components to Water and Sewerage Rates; the Supply Charge and the Consumption Charges. The owner of the property is liable to pay the supply charges. The tenant is liable for the consumption charges, but only if the property is individually metered by Icon Water. A large number of units and older strata townhouses in Canberra do not have individual water meters and in such cases, the owners must cover any water consumption (as well as supply) charges.

    • Toggle Toggle How often should rent be reviewed?

      At Block Real Estate we conduct a rent review on every property every 12 months (with exception of fixed term leases beyond 12 months). The aim of this review is to ensure that our properties are rented at fair market rate, while allowing investors to grow their asset. Once the review is conducted we will provide our recommendations to the owner who will then decide whether to maintain or increase the rental rate (if recommended).
