Real Estate Property Maintenance Footscray
Property maintenance built specifically for real estate agencies, property managers and rental investors operating in Footscray and the wider Maribyrnong council area. We're the contractor on your maintenance rotation — not a one-off tradesperson — and we structure our work around what an agency actually needs to keep tenants happy and owners off the phone.
Agencies running portfolios across Footscray 3011, Yarraville, Seddon and West Footscray rely on us for the reactive jobs, the routine inspection-prep work, and the longer end-of-lease make-goods. Call the callback form for a contractor information pack or email the callback form to set up a portfolio review.
What's Included
Real estate property maintenance in Footscray covers the full operational scope your agency deals with: reactive maintenance (repairs requested by tenants via your maintenance portal or direct call); vacate inspections (fault list documented and quoted within 48 hours); make-good and bond-return repairs (full handover before next listing); routine inspection prep (quick touch-ups before quarterly inspections); open-for-inspection prep (paint touch-ups, garden tidy, presentation issues); pre-sale property maintenance (vendor-side improvements before listing); compliance reporting (smoke alarm, gas safety, RCD records for owner files); insurance claim repair work (coordination with insurers, documented scope). Every job is photographed before and after, with the report attached to the invoice.
How We Work With Property Managers in Footscray
We're set up to work the way your agency already runs: job-management portal integration (we work with PropertyMe, Console Cloud and Property Tree, or plain email); 24-hour quote turnaround on anything under $5,000; 30-day invoice terms with monthly statement reconciliation; owner-direct invoicing available if your agency prefers landlords pay direct; volume discounts for portfolios of 20+ properties; insurance certificates pre-loaded in your contractor database. For new agencies, onboarding takes 48 hours: contractor pack, insurance certificates, sample SLA, and a portfolio walk-through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you handle a full portfolio rotation for our agency?
Yes. We currently run portfolios of 20+ properties for agencies in the Maribyrnong area. New portfolios onboard within 48 hours with a documented schedule, insurance pre-loaded, and a single point of contact.
Do you provide owner-direct invoicing?
Yes. If your agency prefers landlords pay direct, we invoice each owner separately with photo documentation per job. Your agency stays out of the payment chain.
What insurance documents do you provide?
Public liability ($20M), workers compensation, and ABN verification — all current certificates emailed to your office and loaded into your job-management portal on onboarding.
Are you set up for the 2027 Victorian rental minimum standards?
Yes. We can audit a portfolio now for likely upgrade requirements (heating, hot water, insulation, draught proofing, smoke alarms) and quote per property so owners can budget across 2026 ahead of the March 2027 deadline.
What's your turnaround on a vacate inspection list?
Quote inside 48 hours of receiving the inspection report. Work scheduled within 5–7 days of quote approval. Most Footscray make-goods completed inside the bond-return window.
