Owning an investment property in Victoria comes with incredible opportunities, but also a growing number of responsibilities. Legislative changes over recent years have raised the bar for rental providers, particularly when it comes to safety, documentation, and property condition standards.
At LongView, we’ve developed a dedicated Compliance Management Service to give our clients peace of mind that their property is in safe hands – legally, practically, and professionally.
What Our Compliance Service Covers
Our team proactively manages every element of rental compliance so you don’t need to keep up with changing legislation or chase down trades. It’s all taken care of, including:
- Preparing and issuing the Disclosure Statement required for advertising your property
- Conducting an annual physical inspection to ensure the home aligns with Residential Rental Minimum Standards
- Coordinating and approving any works needed to maintain those standards
- Organising gas and electrical safety checks with qualified and vetted trades
- Storing all compliance certificates and documentation in our property management system
- Providing tenants with the legally required safety and smoke alarm information
- Ensuring lease agreements remain up to date and reflect any compliance updates
- Managing a panel of trusted trades and overseeing quality control across all compliance-related work
- Keeping detailed schedules so inspections and certificates stay valid and timely
This is all handled seamlessly in the background by our experienced property management team, keeping your property compliant and your tenancy running smoothly.
Why It Matters
For many investors, managing these tasks individually would be time-consuming, expensive, and easy to overlook. By streamlining compliance into a single, proactive service, we’re protecting your asset and ensuring tenants have a safe and secure place to call home — all while keeping you informed and supported.
About the Fee
To deliver this ongoing service effectively, we charge a small annual compliance fee. Rather than paying separately for minimum standards checks, safety reports, documentation handling, and lease updates, our fee brings everything together into one streamlined service.
For perspective, a single minimum standards check alone often costs $150 through other providers, and doesn’t include everything we do. Our goal is to offer greater value while removing the stress and complexity from your plate.
Let’s Make It Easy
If you have any questions about how your property is tracking or want to understand more about how our compliance service works, we’re always happy to help.
