Our Services
Property management that's genuinely proactive
A full-service, hands-on approach to protecting and growing your Gold Coast investment.
Rent Reviews
We monitor the Gold Coast rental market every month. When conditions move in your favour, we bring a recommendation to you — with the data to back it up — and manage the entire notice process compliantly.
- Monthly market analysis for your suburb
- Data-backed rent recommendations
- Compliant 2-month written notice to tenants
- Maximum one increase per 12-month period
Under the Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 (Qld), rent may only be increased once every 12 months, with a minimum 2 months' written notice to the tenant.
Tenant Selection
A bad tenant costs you far more. We screen applications thoroughly — background checks, income verification, and a genuine read of the rental history before anyone gets keys.
- Full background and identity checks
- Employment and income verification
- Rental history with previous agents
- Reference checks, not just reference calls
Maintenance Management
We have a network of local Gold Coast trades who know us and show up when we call. Every job is logged, actioned, and closed — with photos and receipts sent to you. Emergency repairs are triaged through our after-hours line and actioned in line with our obligations under Queensland tenancy law.
- Trusted local trade network
- After-hours emergency repair line
- Every job documented with photos and invoices
- Preventative maintenance reminders
Emergency repairs are attended in accordance with obligations under the Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 (Qld).
Communication & Reporting
You have our direct number. Call or text — we aim to respond the same business day. Monthly statements are clear and on time. If something happens at your property, you hear it from us first, not last.
- Direct access to your property manager
- Monthly owner statements
- Maintenance updates at every stage
- Annual investment performance summary
Compliance & Inspections
Queensland tenancy law changes regularly. We stay across every update so your property stays compliant and your exposure stays low. Routine inspections happen on schedule with full written reports.
- Routine inspections on schedule (with written reports)
- Entry and exit condition reports
- Smoke alarm and safety compliance
- Kept current with Queensland legislation changes
The Waterways Difference
Every service above is available at a large agency
What you don't get there is a manager who knows your property by name, answers their phone, and treats your investment like it matters. That's what a deliberately small rent roll makes possible.
Capped portfolio — your property is never lost in the crowd
One dedicated manager for your property, always
Strategy tailored to your goals, not a template
