A Landlord’s Guide to Effective Property Advertising and Tenant Engagement

July 16, 2025

A landlord’s responsibilities extend beyond collecting rent. They are expected to provide a habitable living environment, maintain the property in good condition, and comply with legal obligations. Additionally, they must establish clear tenancy agreements, manage financial transactions, and address tenant concerns promptly.

Tenants, in turn, benefit from understanding these responsibilities, which helps clarify their rights and fosters mutual respect. Questions such as where can I advertise my rental property often arise as part of the process, highlighting the importance of choosing the right…

In fact, about one in four Australian children now show signs of myopia, according to recent health surveys. That number has climbed sharply in the past five years, making it a timely issue for parents, educators, and healthcare professionals alike.

July 14, 2025

Let’s be honest—letting someone new into your home is always a big deal. Whether they’re caring for your kids or covering your kitchen in fresh paint, trust matters. As mums, we’ve got an instinct for spotting red flags, asking the right questions, and making sure our homes stay safe, clean, and calm. So why should hiring a painter feel any different from hiring a babysitter? It turns out, it’s not. Both jobs involve being in your space, around your family, and leaving things better than they found them. So when it’s time to update the living room, freshen up the…
